Bar color change

[Nirmal]

Hai,
    I am using 2D Bar Chart. I want to show the first value in XAxis As Blue and Second value in XAxis as Red. And also i have to show Blue(In 0) as "String1" and Red(in 1) as "String2" in ChartArea.How can i do this?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Nirmal,

Currently there is no way to customize the axis colors in such a way. Setting the labels can be easily done by modifying the TickPoints collection of the AxisX in the ChartArea.

To ensure that the TickPoints collection is not regenerated, I suggest setting:

this.chartArea.AxisX.AutoRange = false;
this.chartArea.AxisX.AddRange(0, 1, 1);

Hello Neeraj,

Can you, please, give us more details on your expected scenario? Other than that, I suggest looking at the MVVM example in our QSF. Note, that the example is also available in the WPF version of the chart.

Kind regards,

Hello,
I am very new to this telerik reporting.
I have a bar chart with the names on the x-aixs and cost on y-axis. With some fill type the values on the x-aixs and y-axis are becoming dull and hard to read. Also, when the names are long they are getting overlapped.
Can any one please tell me how to change the colors of the values on axis to some color lets say black. And how to display the x-axis values in some inclined manner instead of horizontally.
Thanks in advance.

Hello Pams,

To be able to change colors of Axis Item labels you should change it's foreground. For achieving this you can use the AxisForeground property of the RadChart like this:

radChart1.AxisForeground = new SolidColorBrush(Colors.Black);

NOTE that the value of this property will get applied to all of the axis item labels and all of the axis titles.

To rotate Axis Item Labels you should use LabelRotationAngle property described here: http://www.telerik.com/help/wpf/radchart-features-axes-x-axis.html.
Here is how you can set some value to it:

radChart1.DefaultView.ChartArea.AxisX.LabelRotationAngle = 45;

Hope this answers your questions.
