Legend Position and Orientation
posted

Hi there, I couldn't find a way to position the legend away from the default right hand side location.

I would like to be able to set a location top,bottom, left , right of the chart ( with the legend items displayed in horizontal or vertical orientation).

Is this possible?

 

thanks.

    You would have to modify the chart's template to get the legend in a different location. Here's an example of placing the legend on the left.

    <igChart:XamWebChart Name="chart">
      <igChart:XamWebChart.Template>
        <ControlTemplate TargetType="igChart:XamWebChart">
          <Grid x:Name="RootElement" Background="{TemplateBinding Background}">
            <Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
               <ColumnDefinition Width="Auto" MaxWidth="200"/>
               <ColumnDefinition Width="*"/>
            </Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
            <Grid.RowDefinitions>
              <RowDefinition Height="Auto"/>
              <RowDefinition Height="*"/>
            </Grid.RowDefinitions>
            <Grid x:Name="CaptionPanel" Grid.Row="0" Grid.ColumnSpan="2" Grid.Column="0"/>
            <Grid x:Name="ScenePanel" Grid.Column="1" Grid.Row="1"/>
            <Grid x:Name="LegendPanel" Grid.Column="0" Grid.Row="1" MaxWidth="200"/>
          </Grid>
        </ControlTemplate>
      </igChart:XamWebChart.Template>
     
    <igChart:XamWebChart.Series>
      <igChart:Series>
        <igChart:Series.DataPoints>
          <igChart:DataPoint Value="5"/>
        </igChart:Series.DataPoints>
      </igChart:Series>
     </igChart:XamWebChart.Series>
    </igChart:XamWebChart>

     

    Unfortunately, it's not possible to arrange the legend items horizontally at this time.
