    Is it possible to change the color of the axis labels and the axis lines? I have a DateTimeContinuousAxis and a LinearAxis and I cant seem to change the colors from the default Black.


    thanks

    Hi,

    Please set the following style:
    <Style x:Key="CustomAxis" TargetType="telerik:Axis">
        <Setter Property="LineStroke" Value="Red" />
        <Setter Property="LabelStyle">
            <Setter.Value>
                <Style TargetType="TextBlock">
                    <Setter Property="Margin" Value="4"/>
                    <Setter Property="Foreground" Value="Red" />
                </Style>
            </Setter.Value>
        </Setter>
        <Setter Property="MajorTickStyle">
            <Setter.Value>
                <Style TargetType="Rectangle">
                    <Setter Property="Fill" Value="Red"/>
                </Style>
            </Setter.Value>
        </Setter>
    </Style>

    to the axes in your application.

    All the best,

    Hi, how could I change the color of an axis title? I guess it is using the TitleTemplate property, but I don't know how to define it.

    Hi Jorge,

    Yes, the TitleTemplate can be used for such purpose through the same style.

    Here it is:
    <Style x:Key="CustomAxis" TargetType="telerik:Axis">
        <Setter Property="TitleTemplate">
            <Setter.Value>
                <DataTemplate>
                    <TextBlock Text="{Binding}" Foreground="Orange" />
                </DataTemplate>
            </Setter.Value>
        </Setter>
    </Style>
