Hi,

I face problem while generating Bar and Line Chart.

(1) Can we display -Ve no in Braces? i.e. i want to display -20 as (20) and the values comes from dataset.

(2) After 3 minor step line,i want 4th minor step line slighly larger.

(3) Can we display AxisY title at top of the highest value grid line?

Return(%)   <--- Here i want AxisY Title.

Yes:

chart1.AxisY.LabelsFormat.CustomFormat = "#.00;(#.00)";

> (2) After 3 minor step line,i want 4th minor step line slighly larger.

All minor steps are equal. You can have different ticks from minor and major steps (chart1.AxisY.Grids.Major.TickMark and Chart1.AxisY.Grids.Minor.TickMark respectively.

You can create a title at the top of the chart and align it to the left as follows:

TitleDockable title = new TitleDockable(); title.Text = "Top Title"; title.Alignment = StringAlignment.Near; chart1.Titles.Add(title);

Alternatively, you can set a pane title:

chart1.Panes[0].Title.Text = "Pane Title";

Or you can create a custom gridline at the Max value:

cl.ShowLine = false; cl.Value = chart1.AxisY.Max; cl.Text = "Custom Gridline"; chart1.ConstantLines.Add(cl);

chart1.Border = false;
