Hello Lurie ,

Currently, RadChart does not expose any property for this and the only way you could do this is to use the SeriesItemLabelStyle property of the series definition to change the template of the label controls.
Here is a sample code:

    
            //the namespace of the RadChart's controls 
        
            xmlns:t="clr-namespace:Telerik.Windows.Controls.Charting;assembly=Telerik.Windows.Controls.Charting" 
        
            //the style which is to be applied to the series item labels. 
        
                    <Style x:Name="labelStyle" TargetType="t:SeriesItemLabel" > 
        
                        <Setter Property="Template"> 
        
                            <Setter.Value> 
        
                                <ControlTemplate TargetType="t:SeriesItemLabel" > 
        
                                    <Canvas> 
        
                                        <TextBlock x:Name="PART_TextContainer" 
        
                                                    Canvas.Top="-20" 
        
                                                    Canvas.Left="{TemplateBinding TextContainerCanvasLeft}" 
        
                                                    VerticalAlignment="Stretch" 
        
                                                    TextAlignment="Center" 
        
                                                    FontSize="14" 
        
                                                    Text="{TemplateBinding Content}" 
        
                                                    Foreground="{TemplateBinding Foreground}"/> 
        
                                    </Canvas> 
        
                                </ControlTemplate> 
        
                            </Setter.Value> 
        
                        </Setter> 
        
                    </Style> 
        
            //the series definition 
        
            SeriesDefinition d = new BarSeriesDefinition(); 
        
            d.SeriesItemLabelStyle = this.FindName("labelStyle") as Style;

As for your second question - currently we have no plans to implement such functionality in the near future.

Hope this will help.

All the best,
