Hi,
I'm using the RadChart in an application where the number of point to plots is variable. That means that when many points are supplied the labels on x-axis are overlapped. Is there any workaround to draw only as many x-labels to ensure they are not overlapped.
Thanks.

Hello Daní,
If you have databound the XValue of the chart DataPoints (like adding an ItemMapping for XValue) you can take advantage of the TicksDistance property of AxisX. This property defines the minimum distance between two ticks along the X axis. In case there are lots of items, RadChart will calculate the ticks and label in a way that ticks are no closer than the value of this property.
If you are not setting XValue, TicksDistance will be ignored, so you may consider using the LabelStep property. Setting it to 3 will force the chart to display only every third label.
