Turning off Item Data Labels and moving x axis labels

[Glavin]

I am having trouble finding the magic setting that disables the item data labels for a line chart, and can't seem to get the x axis label's y position to change to try and move the labels closer to the axis.

ok I found the problem to at least one of my issues.

Apprently the way I am binding the grid I have to shit off show lables for both series 0 and 1.


rdcIndividual.DataSource = (a LINQ query here ... select new { Month = g.Key, Score = g.Average(ut => ut.percent_score) };)
 rdcIndividual.DataBind();
 rdcIndividual.Series[0].DataYColumn = "Score";
 rdcIndividual.PlotArea.XAxis.DataLabelsColumn = "Month";
 rdcIndividual.Series[1].Appearance.ShowLabels = false;
 rdcIndividual.Series[0].Appearance.ShowLabels = false;

Hello Michael,

Here is the code to move X axis item labels towards the axis:

RadChart1.PlotArea.XAxis.Appearance.LabelAppearance.Position.Auto = false;
RadChart1.PlotArea.XAxis.Appearance.LabelAppearance.Position.Y = -10;

Hope this helps.

Best wishes,

That works for the entire series but how do you do this for just one step.  I get an error in ItemDataBound in I add Items[0] as in:

RadChartMitigation.Series[0].Items[0].Appearance.ShowLabels =

false;

Hello Adisa,

I think you need to handle the BeforeLayout event like this:

RadChart1.BeforeLayout += new EventHandler<EventArgs>(RadChart1_BeforeLayout);

    void RadChart1_BeforeLayout(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        (RadChart1.Series[0].Items[0] as ChartSeriesItem).Label.Visible = false;
    }

Hope this will help.
