HYperlink/Image in Xaxis Label

[Mahesh]

Hi,

I need to have a label / Text which should act as a hyper link in the x-axis label. Currently this supports only string as i know.

One more question is, if i need to add any image object to the x-axis label, how that can be done?

Help is highly appreciated.

Thanks
Mahesh

Hi Mahesh,

You can use the ChartAxisItem.ActiveRegion.Url property to specify the url you would like to open on axis item label click. As for the image question -- RadChart only supports adding background images to the axis item labels:

protected void RadChart1_BeforeLayout(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    ChartAxisItem axisItem = this.RadChart1.PlotArea.XAxis.Items[0];
    axisItem.ActiveRegion.Url = "http://www.telerik.com";
    axisItem.ActiveRegion.Tooltip = "Telerik";
    axisItem.ActiveRegion.Attributes = "target=_blank";

    ChartAxisItem axisItem2 = this.RadChart1.PlotArea.XAxis.Items[1];
    axisItem2.Appearance.FillStyle.FillType = Telerik.Charting.Styles.FillType.Image;
    axisItem2.Appearance.FillStyle.FillSettings.BackgroundImage = "image.jpg";
}

We have attached a sample application that demonstrates both approaches.
