Series Label in charts

[rap]

Hello,

I'm very new in telerik applications. I'm working on the charts part. I need to do an upgrade to something already existing.
I attached a picture of what is currently existing. As you can see there is a series label on the top of each bar (the value). I would like to know if it is possible to add an second label (above or below the other one). for example, a pourcentage.

If possible, could you please give some guidelines to help me ?

Thank you !

Hi rap,

By default the chart item will display the value corresponding to the bar (point, slice) as a label, but you can control the label content. This is possible thanks to the DefaultLabelValue property - you can use several “special words” in this property -- "#Y", "#X", “#%”, “#SUM”, “#STSUM”, “#SERIES”, “#ITEM”. They are all listed in the dedicated help topic . If you want to further customize this label, you can combine them: DefaultLabelValue=”#Y (#%)”. This will produce a label like “2314 (34%)”.
You can add any Standard Numeric Format String inside curly braces. Here is an example - remove the decimals from the amount but specify the percentage with higher precision: “#Y{C0} (#%{#0.###%})”.

All the best,

Thank you very much for your answer ! It is really helpful. I just have a last question : so now I know it's possible, but I would like to know if I can show this 2 values on 2 lines.
for example :
254
20%

instead of 254 - 20%

Cause, it's quite large (2 values on the same line).

Hello rap,

You can, but you would have to set the DefaultLabelValue with code e.g.:

chart1.Series[0].DefaultLabelValue = "#Y{N0}" + Environment.NewLine + "(#%)";
