Suggestions | • | Axis Tick Mark Alignment A category or sequence time axis scale traditionally uses tick marks that are centered between tick labels. To do this use: Axis.CenterTickMarks = false [copy] |
| • | Axis Scale A category axis is showing values but is represented by strings, hence, it behaves like a category axis. Therefore, value related features such as scale range or intervals cannot be used. To use a true quantitative axis, try setting Axis.Scale = Scale.Normal [copy] or Scale.Time [copy] |
| • | Element Labels Labels can show different values using tokens such as %value, %name, %SeriesName. They can also be formatted differently on a per element basis. To set all element labels, use Chart.DefaultElement.SmartLabel.Text = "%Value" [copy] See also: Token Reference |
| • | Axis Tick Labels Very long axis labels can shrink the chart area itself dramatically. To remedy this, labels can be trimmed. See also: Label.Truncation | Truncation class | |
| • | Make Your Chart Interactive If you would like to have tool tips when users mouse over elements, try using code similar to: Chart.DefaultElement.Tooltip="%Name = %Value" [copy]. Elements can also be clickable using code like: Chart.DefaultElement.URL="?ClickedElement=%Name" [copy]. See also: Interactivity Tutorial |
