Rotate DataLabelColumns

[Eric Klein]

How can you rotate the Data Lable Column.  I have it displaying a description but they run together,  I can see I can rotate differnt lables but can not seem to find the place to rotate the labels on the x axis.  I would like to rotate them about 30% so they will fit.  Also how do you show the value of the y axis in on the bars of a bar grid.  Alos I am show percentage and the y axis is only going to the largest value, how can I set it to go to 100?

Ok I have found all the settings I am looking for, but I have some very odd behavior when printing.

It looks good on the screen I hit the print button and for some reason The Title Texbox prints with a black background, the Legend prints witha black background and the text on the y axis (Major TIcks) have a blck background, but when you view it on the screen they appear fine.

Hi,

Please use the following code snippet for the chart in your report:

Copy Code

chart1.PlotArea.XAxis.Appearance.LabelAppearance.Dimensions.Margins = new ChartMargins(0, 0, 0, 0);
chart1.PlotArea.XAxis.Appearance.LabelAppearance.Dimensions.Paddings = new ChartPaddings(0, 0, 0, 0);
chart1.PlotArea.XAxis.Appearance.TextAppearance.Border.Color = Color.White;
chart1.PlotArea.XAxis.Appearance.TextAppearance.Border.Width = 0.0f;
chart1.PlotArea.XAxis.Appearance.TextAppearance.FillStyle.MainColor = Color.White;
chart1.PlotArea.XAxis.Appearance.TextAppearance.FillStyle.FillType = FillType.Solid;
chart1.PlotArea.XAxis.Appearance.TextAppearance.Dimensions.Margins = new ChartMargins(0, 0, 0, 0);
chart1.PlotArea.XAxis.Appearance.TextAppearance.Dimensions.Paddings = new ChartPaddings(0, 0, 0, 0);

Place this code in the report constructor right after InitializeComponent.

That did not appear to work I am still getting the black background when printing

Hello,

Can you clarify how do you print the report - programmatically or via the report viewer, if the latter, which viewer is that? Do you get the same problem if you export to PDF and print from it?

I am using the print button from the preview tab of the report designer.  When I save as PDF it is fine.

This looks like it is only an issue when in the development environment.  When I run the app the printing works fine
