Hi Nassos, 

 

Greetings from Syncfusion. 

 

To position the text Annotation, please refer our online help document link. 

https://help.syncfusion.com/xamarin/sfchart/chartannotation#positioning-the-annotation  

 

If your requirement is different from the above help document link, please confirm the below details whether your expected requirement match with that. 

 

Text Annotation should be in backside (bottom area) and line series draw on top position (display in front).   

 

If the above details match with your requirement, please confirm us. We will prepare and provide custom sample for you. 

 

Thanks, 

Bharathiraja.

Hi Bharathiraja,

thanks for the reply,

I've seen the documentation before i opened this thread, the problem is not that i don't know how to place the Annotation either by Axes point or Pixels, what I'm asking is how to find out if a given annotation that i placed in for example at (x=10,y=10) is on top of a chartLine in order to change the annotation's position.

What a want is to ensure that the annotation is not in-front or behind (intersect) with a Line.

Thanks,

Nassos

Hi Nassos, 

 

Thanks for your update.  

 

We are afraid that there is no option to check the TextAnnotation is placed on top of the LineSeries. 

 

As we can’t find out text annotation on line series, we need to check the data points and text annotation position and will need to adjust it manually using the CoordinateUnit axis or pixels. 

 

As a workaround solution, the DataMarker can be used at a specific point as TextAnnotation and can hide the remaining data markers using DataMarkerLabelCreated event. 

 

We have prepared a simple sample using the DataMarker as TextAnnotation to show the text without placing on LineSeries. By using the LabelPosition as inner, outer and center you can also change the text position for the DataMarker.
