How to rotate data labels in the .NET WebForms Chart?
Essential Chart supports rotating data labels by using the Angle property of the Data Label. Data label rotation can be performed for all the series in the Chart by using the CommonSeriesOptions or for a specific series in the Series collection.
The following code example illustrates the use of CommonSeriesOptions to rotate Data Labels of all the series in the Chart.
ASP
<ej:Chart ID="container" CanResize="true" runat="server"> <CommonSeriesOptions> <Marker> <DataLabel Visible="true" Angle="-90" Offset="-40" VerticalTextAlignment= ”Near”> <Font Size=”14px” Color=”White”></ Font> </DataLabel> </Marker> </CommonSeriesOptions> . . . . . . . . . . </ej:Chart>
The following screenshot displays the chart with rotated data labels.
