Gantt Chart - YAxis date formatting

[Dan]

Hi.

I am using the latest reports web viewer to render a gantt chart and the Yaxis is rendering the double value e.g. 41130  rather than a date.

The bound data source is simple -
Title - String
Start - double < created using DateTime.ToOADate()
End - double

I have set the series properties with valueformat and customformat as below.

this.chart1.PlotArea.YAxis.Appearance.ValueFormat = Telerik.Reporting.Charting.Styles.ChartValueFormat.LongDate;

this.chart1.PlotArea.YAxis.Appearance.CustomFormat = "dd-MMM-yy";

The design time view shows the correct layout/format however when i switch to preview it renders the double value.

Any help appreciated. Thanks

Hi Dan,

Check if you are using chart skin. When you use the predefined skins, they override some of the properties that you set design-time. If that is the case, setting the properties that get overridden programmatically in the constructor after the InitializeComponent() call, should fix this issue.   
 
All the best,
