Aligning markers and labels

[Julian]

Hi, I've a standard line chart. It is possible to align the markers so that they are on the grid lines. And also, so that the date labels on the X-axis match up to the grid lines instead of being in between lines. Thanks.

Perhaps I'm not explaining myself too well. See the line chart below. The grid lines are inbetween the markers.

I'd like them to line up with the markers, as per image attached.

Hello Julian,

To achieve the desired effect you can the LayoutMode property to Inside. It can be done either
declaratively:

<telerik:RadChart ID="RadChart1" runat="server" PlotArea-XAxis-LayoutMode="Inside">
</telerik:RadChart>

or programmatically:

RadChart1.PlotArea.XAxis.LayoutMode = Telerik.Charting.Styles.ChartAxisLayoutMode.Inside;

Also, you can read the relevant online documentation.

Excellent. Thanks a lot!

Hi, actually, one thing. Is there a reason why the lines do not cover the first and last columns though? Can this be altered?

Hello Julian,

This behavior is related to the LayoutMode property. Did you try setting the property to Between?

Hi, ah, I see. I played around with that setting. Working as required now. Thanks!
