ManualLayout Property (PlotArea)

Gets or sets whether the layout of the plot area is automatically generated.

Syntax

Visual Basic
C#

'Declaration
 
Public Property ManualLayout As Boolean

'Usage
 
Dim instance As PlotArea
Dim value As Boolean
 
instance.ManualLayout = value
 
value = instance.ManualLayout

public bool ManualLayout {get; set;}

Remarks

When the ManualLayout property is false, and the size or location of the chart title is changed, the plot area is adjusted for the chart title. When the ManualLayout property is true, and the size or location of the chart title is changed, the plot area is not adjusted for the chart title.

Example

This example sets the ManualLayout property.
