Dear Evgenia,

i have a table with the columns and values below:
CardType       Total
Scratch          695
Virtual           119

How can i show instead of "Item 1" & "Item 2", the values from my column CardType: "Scratch" & "Virtual" (attached image) ???
The total is correct.

Thank you.

George.

OrdersColumn.png

Dear Evgenia thank you for your support.

I'm trying to make it work correctly but i can't. Probably i'm doing something wrong.

Table columns and Values:
CardType       Orders
Scratch            698
Virtual             120

When i use the column "Orders" (chCardTypes.Series(0).DataLabelsColumn = "Orders"), i get the the number of Orders inside the graph (correct) but i also get the same column (incorrect) in Legend items (Attache image "OrdersColumn").

When i use the column "CardType" (chCardTypes.Series(0).DataLabelsColumn = "CardType"), i get the the name of CardTypes in Legend items name (correct), but i also get the same column (incorrect) in Legend items (Attache image "CardTypeColumn").

My code is below.

I want to use the values of column "Orders" inside the graph and the values of column "CardType" in Legend items text, just like the first example Here

Thank you in advance for you help.

Best Regards,
George.

Hi,

To vizualize the "Orders" column values as Series Items Labels you don't need to specify DataLabelsColumn as RadChart shows them as labels by default.
To use the values of column "CardType" as Legend items Text you should subscribe to ItemDataBound event of the chart and add the following code line in the event's body:

protected void RadChart1_ItemDataBound(object sender, ChartItemDataBoundEventArgs e)

{

e.SeriesItem.Name = ((DataRowView)e.DataItem)["CardType"].ToString();

}

Also have in mind that you should set the LegendDisplayMode property to ItemLabels to be able to see them:

RadChart1.Series[0].Appearance.LegendDisplayMode = ChartSeriesLegendDisplayMode.ItemLabels;

All the best,
