Defining the ChartArea Objects

The following graphic illustrates the ChartArea element in C1Chart.

The ChartArea element represents the area of the chart that contains data (excluding the titles and legend, but including the axes). The ChartArea property returns an Area object with the following main properties:

Property

Description

AxisX, AxisY, AxisY2

Each of these properties returns Axis objects that allow you to customize the appearance of the chart axes. The Axis objects are described later.

Inverted

Allows you to rotate the chart by 90 degrees (this is especially useful to create horizontal bar charts).

Margins

Returns a Margin object that allows you to specify the distance between the chart area and the plot area. The axes labels are displayed in this space.

Returns a PlotArea object that controls the appearance of the area inside the axes.
