custom point labels

[User (Legacy)]

Is there a simple way to do the following?

chart.PointLabels    = TRUE;

if (pointValue <= 0)

    pointLabel    =  "Data Not Monitored";

else

    pointLabel    = "SomeDataString";

I can see in the PointAttribute object where I can set the Text 

color,alignment and such, but not the Text itself.

Thanks,

Chris

The Tag property if what will allow you to achieve what you are looking for:

set:

chart.PointLabels    = TRUE;

if (pointValue <= 0)

    pointLabel    =  "Data Not Monitored";

else

    pointLabel    = "SomeDataString";

chart.Point(i,j).Tag = pointLabel;

Then, to display the tag in the point label use the PointLabelMaskProperty 

as follows:

chart.PointLabelMask = "%L";

You can also achieve this using Conditional Attributes, please refer to the 

documentation for more information.
