Both the Header and Legend have Compass and Location properties, and you can use one or both of these properties to change the position. The Compass property can be set to North, South, East, or West through the ComapssEnum. By default, the Header and Legend will be centered within the Compass area. The Location property can be set to a System.Drawing.Point, which accepts x and y coordinates. Both the x and y coordinates can be set to -1 to use automatic positioning.

Displaying the Header

The following example positions your chart header at the top. The point coordinates can be adjusted to fine tune the position:

To write code in Visual Basic

c1Chart1.Header.Text = "My Chart Header"
c1Chart1.Header.Compass = C1.Win.C1Chart.CompassEnum.North
c1Chart1.Header.Location = New Point(-1, -1)
c1Chart1.Header.Visible = True

To write code in C#

this.c1Chart1.Header.Text = "My Chart Header";
this.c1Chart1.Header.Compass = C1.Win.C1Chart.CompassEnum.East;
this.c1Chart1.Header.Location = new Point(-1, -1);
this.c1Chart1.Header.Visible = true;

Displaying the Legend

The following example will position your chart legend to the left and you cana djust the point coordinates to fine tune the position.

To write code in Visual Basic

c1Chart1.Legend.Text = "My Chart Legend"
c1Chart1.Legend.Compass = C1.Win.C1Chart.CompassEnum.West
c1Chart1.Legend.Location = new Point(-1, -1)
c1Chart1.Legend.Visible = True

To write code in C#

this.c1Chart1.Legend.Text = "My Chart Legend";
this.c1Chart1.Legend.Compass = C1.Win.C1Chart.CompassEnum.West;
this.c1Chart1.Legend.Location = new Point(-1, -1);
this.c1Chart1.Legend.Visible = true;
