TeeChart.Silverlight: Legend & Axis Label Placement

Post by cjherasmus » Wed Jun 28, 2017 1:42 pm

Hi,

please find attached a screen image of the situation I'm currently experiencing. My development environment is Windows 7, Silverlight 4.0 and VS 2012.

I would like to have the legend moved lower not to overlap the datetime x-axis label values.

I would also like to have the right axis title moved up (centered) and a bit to the right.

Text alignment, Legend alignment and label alignment doesn't help much.

Thank you
Regards

Hello,

Running the following code using the latest version of TeeChart.Silverlight.dll:

Code: Select all

    public MainPage()
    {
      InitializeComponent();

      TChart tChart1 = new TChart();
      tChart1.Margin = new Thickness(0);
      LayoutRoot.Children.Add(tChart1);

      tChart1.Series.Add(typeof(Histogram)).FillSampleValues();
      tChart1.Series.Add(typeof(Candle)).FillSampleValues();

      tChart1.Axes.Bottom.Labels.Angle = 90;
      tChart1[1].VertAxis = VerticalAxis.Right;
      tChart1[0].HorizAxis = HorizontalAxis.Top;
      tChart1.Legend.Alignment = LegendAlignments.Bottom;
      tChart1.Axes.Right.Title.Text = "Right Axis Title";
      tChart1.Axes.Right.Title.Angle = 90;
      tChart1.Axes.Right.Labels.CustomSize = 100;

      tChart1.Panel.MarginRight = 30;
    }
gives me the following output:

Thank you Christopher,

The combination of the Angle and Custom Size did the trick for the right-side y-axis title. The bottom legend overlapping is still overlapping.

I'm using version 4.1.2016.10260 with the Silverlight dll of the .NET 3.5 version.

Can't find the Silverlight dll in the 4.1.2017.0314 version.

Using the TeeChart.Silverlight.dll under:

I obtain a similar result using the previous code:

Hi Christopher,

I've run your code successfully and works correct.

In my code I get an error message: "Value does not fall within the expected range" which appears when I set the Legend Alignment to Bottom. When I use your code to fit into my coding I get the error again. It seems that my problem occurs before I'm drawing the chart and the way I'm doing it. I will have to go investigate.

Thank you for your assistance thus far.
