Hi Team,

I am having problem with Bar chart. My chart has both -ve and +ve values but category axis labels are not at the base line. Please see attached image.

I need that 1-2009, 1-2007, 1-2008 below -25...in other worrds i need to make the base line -25 if there are -ve values and 0 for +ve values.

Can any one from the team please tell me how to do that?

Urgent response will be appreciated.

Thanks,
Mohsin

Hi Mohsin,

At present the such functionality is not supported in Kendo UI DataViz and there is no suitable workaround. We will appreciate if you submit that idea as a feature request at our UserVoice page so the community can evaluate and vote for it. If this suggestion turns out to be popular, we will consider its implementation for a future release.

Hi Iliana,

Can I have an update on this.
Does the new version contains solution for said problem?

Thanks,
Mohsin

Hello Mohsin,

I am afraid such functionality is not available in Kendo UI DataViz. Unfortunately its implementation is still not scheduled, but if you are interested in what is coming next you may take a look at the official roadmap.

It can be done with Kendo. Here's how I do it in MVC:

                              Html.Kendo().Chart<AccountPerformance>(Model.Results)
                                                .Name("chartPCTAvgAnnual_" + chartId)
                                                .Title("% Return")
                                                .Legend(legend => legend.Visible(false))
                                                .Series(series =>
                                                    series.Column(model => model.Metrics.Return)
                                                    .Name(Model.ColumnTitle)
                                                    .Labels(false)
                                                )

                                                //Ading an extra axis lets us put the lables on bottom       
                                                .ValueAxis(axis => axis.Numeric()
                                                       .AxisCrossingValue(0, int.MinValue))
                                                .CategoryAxis(axis => axis
                                                       .Labels(false))
                                                .CategoryAxis(axis => axis
                                                        .Categories(model => model.ObservationDescription)
                                                        .Labels(builder => builder.Rotation(45))
                                                        .Line(line => line.Visible(false))
                                                    )                                                    
                                                    
                                                    
                                                 .SeriesDefaults(builder => builder.Column().NegativeColor("#BE2D55").Color("#C0BD7F"))
                                                .Tooltip(tooltip => tooltip
                                                    .Visible(true)
                                                    .Color("white")
                                                    .Background("black")
                                                    .Format("{0:P2}")
                                                    .Template("#= value #")
                                                )                                                         
                                                .Render();

This is awesome, thank you!
