Rad Chart - Expand Chart Area remove Legend & Title

[Jack Eddowes]

Hi Guys

I am using the Chart control to display some dashboard summary data. The page area I have is not that large, so I need to maximise its use!

Issue: I want to remove the title and legend and stretch out the chart size and utilise the title and legend area!

Now I have removed the Chart title (set visible to false) and tried a number of settings on the Legend - (set visible to false, changed the legend position etc), although when I remove the title and legend, the space on the top for the title and on the right side for the legend is not utilised for chart I am displaying. I have also tried increasing the width and height of the chart, but again this increases the total canvas size and we are still left with the blank space on the top and right. I either need to be able to reduce the size of the canvas the chart sits on, or increase the chart size utilising the blank space on the right and top of the chart.

Can this be done?

I have attached an image of my graph for reference, and coloured blue the area I need to utilise.

PS - I am using this version of Rad Controls: RadControls_for_ASP.NET_AJAX_2009_2_701_dev

Hello Ashim,

Please try to set the RadChart's AutoLayout property to be True and let us know whether this helps.
