    Hello al,

    You can try setting RadChart1.AutoLayout to true as shown in this online example. You can also consider modifying the plot area margins and the x axis item labels rotation angle as shown in this online example. This would be done in code-behind like this:

    RadChart1.PlotArea.Appearance.Dimensions.Margins.Bottom = Telerik.Charting.Styles.Unit.Percentage(20);
    RadChart1.PlotArea.XAxis.Appearance.LabelAppearance.RotationAngle = 45;

    Hope this helps.

    Best wishes,
    Ves

    Thank you Ves,
    but it does not work. The text is across the x axis. When i wrap it, part of the text is not displayed. It worked in the 1.1 radchart without adding any properties.
    Is it possible for me to post you a picture of the chart?

    i tried to increase the height of the block

    chartAxisItem.TextBlock.Appearance.Dimensions.Height=..

    But still is stays the same.
    If i increase the height of the chart, it is the plot area that gets larger, the space below the x-axis stays the same.
