Format not working for series points and XAxis

[Daniel Blendea]

Hi,

I have a line chart, bound to a List.
The chart displays the data, however there are 2 issues:

1. the points' values are float with many decimals.
I need to display only 2 decimals.

ChartSeries userScoreSeries;

I tried
userScoreSeries.Style.TextFormat = "0#.##";

but it doesn't work, instead of formatted values, I get only "0#.##"

2. The X axis has dates, which need to be formated to a certain country and certain format.

I tried

saveScoreChart.PrimaryXAxis.ValueType = ChartValueType.DateTime;
saveScoreChart.PrimaryXAxis.Format = "dd MMMM yyyy";

No luck.

I tried attaching an event handler to FormatLabel and set the format in the handler:

void PrimaryXAxis_FormatLabel( object sender, ChartFormatAxisLabelEventArgs e )
{
e.Label = e.ValueAsDate.ToString("dd MMMM yyyy");
e.Handled = true;
}

I get some strange values, don't know from where, formatted as dates, which are tottaly wrong.


Can someone tell me how to format the series and the axis?

Thanks,
Daniel

Hi Daniel,

Thank you for using Syncfusion products.
We suggest you to use the DateTimeFormat property of the Primary X axis to format the datetime value of the Chart Axis labels.

Please refer the documentation from the following link:

Let me know if it helps.
