LabelAppearance ForeColor

[Chuck Thompson]

I have a bar graph and I need to change the color of the label in the series.
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||28
||||||||||||||||||||||||||14
Say it looks like this, I want to change the forecolor of the "28" and "14" to be white as the background is a dark blue.
Is this posible andif so how?

Hello Chuck,

You should be able to adjust the series item labels through its TextAppearance property. You can access this property through the property window in Visual Studio here:

Data -> Series -> [series name]-> Appearance -> Appearance ->TextAppearance

I recommend checking out this help topic if you have any other questions about how to style something in the RadChart:

Hi Chuck,

Just as an addition to Robert's post, I would like to add that the same thing is easily done through code-behind, accessing the same chain of properties. If you need to set color based on value, this can be done by handling the BeforeLayout event.

Best,
