Hi,

i'm facing the similar problem.  Following statement doesn't seem to work. I want Days labelled along X-Axis but it replaces each item in Days fields start from 0 :(

Rather than printing 

M, T, W .. it prints 0 1 2 etc 

myChart.Series.Add(chartSeries);
myChart.PlotArea.XAxis.DataLabelsColumn = "Days";


Thanks,
MG

Hello,

It seems that RadChart has problem when setting DataLabelsColumn to both strings and numbers.
What I suggest you is a workaround.
Turn off AutoScale property:

Copy Code

RadChart1.PlotArea.XAxis.AutoScale = false;

Then you can subscribe to BeforeLayout event of the chart and set custom value to every Axis Item. Here is how you can achieve this:

protected void RadChart1_BeforeLayout(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        string[] someText = new string[] { "label1", "label2", "label3" };
        for (int i = 0; i < someText.Length; i++)
        {
            RadChart1.PlotArea.XAxis.Items[i].TextBlock.Text = someText[i];
        }
    }

I hope this helps.
