Rotate Axis Labels
In This Topic

Use the AnnoAngle property to rotate the axis annotation counterclockwise from the specified number of degrees. This property is especially useful if the X-axis is crowded with annotation. Rotating the annotations +/- 30 or 60 degrees allows a much larger number of annotations in a confined space on horizontal axes. By utilizing the AnnoAngle property, the X-axis annotation does not overlap, as shown below:

 

 

XAML
Copy Code
<c1chart:C1Chart.View>
                <c1chart:ChartView>
                    <c1chart:ChartView.AxisX>
                        <c1chart:Axis Min="0" MajorUnit="10" AnnoFormat="c" AutoMin="false" AutoMax="false" Max="200" AnnoAngle="60"  />
                    </c1chart:ChartView.AxisX>
                </c1chart:ChartView>
            </c1chart:C1Chart.View>

 

C#
Copy Code
// Financial formatting
c1Chart1.View.AxisX.AnnoFormat = "c";
c1Chart1.View.AxisX.Min = 0;
c1Chart1.View.AxisX.AnnoAngle = "60";
