LegendText Property
See Also  Example
GrapeCity.ActiveReports.Chart.v7 Assembly > GrapeCity.ActiveReports.Chart Namespace > DataPoint Class : LegendText Property

Glossary Item Box

Gets or sets the text as string to display for the DataPoint in the legend.

Syntax

Visual Basic (Declaration) 
Public Property LegendText As System.String
C# 
public System.string LegendText {get; set;}

Remarks

The LegendText property applies to both the Series and DataPoint objects. The LegendText property is treated as a {Value} by default when the data point appears in the legend and the LegendText property is set to an empty string. The {Value} is the original point value of the data point. 

To render the x value for the data points in the legend for a one figure chart (i.e., funnel, pyramid, or doughnut), the LegendText property must be set to {Name}.

Example

C#Copy Code
private void detail_Format(object sender, EventArgs e)
{     
   if(checkBoxSales.Checked)
   {     
      this.chartControl1.Series["Sales"].Points[0].LegendText = ""; 
   } 
   else 
   { 
      this.chartControl1.Series["Sales"].Points[0].LegendText = "Twenty"; 
   }
}
Visual BasicCopy Code
Private Sub Detail1_Format(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Detail1.Format
   If (CheckBoxSales.Checked) Then
       Me.ChartControl1.Series("Sales").Points(0).LegendText = ""
   Else
       Me.ChartControl1.Series("Sales").Points(0).LegendText = "Twenty"
   End If
End Sub
