The Attached by Data Coordinate method item command gets the DataCoordinate member of the AttachMethodEnum and sets the value of the AttachMethod property in the Label. It attaches the label anywhere inside the plot area of the chart or to the specified coordinate location. To attach the label as a data coordinate, complete the following:

1.   Select an existing Chart label and select the Attached By Data Coordinate item from its drop-down menu.

2.   Click on the Properties button of the Label floating toolbar and observe the following in its Edit labels editor:

·      The AttachMethod property is now set to DataCoordinate since the Attached by Data Coordinate item was chosen.

·      Locate the X and Y coordinate values and notice that they are set to the values of the X and Y coordinate respectively. This is because the DataCoordinate attachment method attaches the labels by the defined coordinate X and Y values.

The image below illustrates the two observations:

3.   If you would like the label to represent a different coordinate pair then simply change the X and Y coordinates in the Edit labels editor. For example, let's say we would like the label on the (2, 16) coordinate pair. In the Edit labels editor we change the X value to 2 and the Y value to 16. The label appears on the (2, 16) X-Y coordinate pair. The image below shows the new position of the label.
