clip in title text

Recommended Posts

Hi,

I am facing a problem wrt the title in the chart. If the chart title is

long, it gets clipped at the ends. I understand the title is confined to the

width of the inner chart drawing area (the rectangle inside which the actual

chart appears. Is there some solution to this?

I tried handling the OnResize event and when the chart area is small I am

breaking the string onto two lines by inserting a "\n" in between. Can

anyone think of a better solution. But even with this, the title appears

clipped sometimes. I do not seem to get the correct chart.Width value in

OnResize, due to which the claculations go wrong?

Do I need to handle it in handler for the PostPaint event? But I found that

it results in some other issues!

Thanks & Regards,

Rajendra

If you are ok with the title "bleeding out" of the inner drawing area, you 

can set its DrawingArea to false, this way it will use all the available

width on the chart.

Unfortunately we do not support wrapping today, but you could process the

PostPaint event and paint a string. Also annotations could allow you to

achieve what you are looking for.
