EmptySeriesMessage not displaying

[Phil]

Hi:

I have the following on a page:

<telerik:RadChart ID="mmpaChart" runat="server" Width="360px"  >
    <PlotArea EmptySeriesMessage-Visible="True">
        <EmptySeriesMessage TextBlock-Text="No data, may need to refresh page" />
    </PlotArea>
</telerik:RadChart>

but it is displaying No data
I have 2011:2.712.40 controls.

Hi Phil,

I was unable to reproduce this. I have created a simple app that uses the code you have provided and a snapshot of the result that I get when I run it. I have also used assemblies from the version that you have specified. Do test this project and see if you get different results.

Kind regards,

Have you tried it with the specified version?

Hi Phil,

Yes, the demo project was tested with binaries with version 2011.2.712.40. I have also just double checked this. Have you tried running the attached project? Does it produce different results?

Hi
In your app I get the desired results.  In my web-site, I get 'No data'.

<%@ Page Title="Test RadChart" Language="VB" MasterPageFile="~/Member.Master" AutoEventWireup="false" CodeFile="Default2.aspx.vb" Inherits="Default2" %>
<%@ Register Assembly="Telerik.Web.UI" Namespace="Telerik.Web.UI" TagPrefix="telerik" %>

Hi Phil,

Thank you for the attached snapshot and code snippet. I created a brand new project using the code you provided. When I run the project I get the same output as before. I have attached to this post the project I tested with and a snapshot of the result it produces.

It is obvious that in the snapshot you provided the chart looks different. Perhaps in code behind you are setting some of the appearance properties and this is what prevents the chart from showing the full message and the message gets clipped. I suggest that you start removing settings until you find the exact reason for this. Let us know how it goes.
