    I am creating a bar chart to display the frequency each item occurred in a data set .

    The problem is that legend display the item name and on the chart the each bar has an ID I want to either add the ID to the legend or replace the Id with the Item name.

    Thank you and Best Regards

    Hello Yehia,

    Did you try setting the DataLabelsColumn property of the Series? This property needs to be set to the name of the property that represents your item's name. The code below should help.

    <telerik:RadChart runat="server" ID="radChart1">
      <Series>
        <telerik:ChartSeries Type="Bar" DataLabelsColumn="ProductName" DataYColumn="Value" Appearance-LegendDisplayMode="ItemLabels" />
      </Series>
    </telerik:RadChart>

    public class Product
    {
      public string ProductName { get; set; }
      public double Value { get; set; }
    }

    This should display the item's name along with the bar.

    Hope this helps.

    All the best,
