Change Value Axis background color on Kendo Line chart

[Vimal]

Hi ,

Can i change the Value axis background color on Kendo Line chart.
It always seems to take the background of the main chart div .
We dont see any background property for valueAxis in the kendo documentation.

Hi,

Currently, you can only control the label background. This is in line with popular products like Excel, for example.

That said, adding a background property won't be too hard. We can draw a box underneath the whole axis (incl. labels). Does this make sense?

Hi T. Tsonev,

That solution should be fine. Would it be along the same lines as the format options for things like the chartArea, e.g.:

            chartArea: {
                background: "red"
            },

If so then that is perfect. When can we see this functionality by?

Thanks.

Hi,

This is the exact configuration I had in mind:
category/value/x/yAxis: {
    background: "#f00"
}

We'll try to push it out as part of the internal builds in the next week or so.
