2D Chart InnerLabel position
Jun 21st, 2016 at 6:17am
Print Post  
When 2D chart bar inner titles are larger than a bar, then they are rendered in a rather strange way (see attached screen shot). The desired behavior in this situation could be:
1) The label sticks out at the top of the bar.
2) Or: The label starts from the bottom of the bar (with a small bottom margin), then crossing the top of the bar into the background.

By bottom and top do you mean left and right sides for the horizontal bars?

That's correct, I was referring to the orientation-independent column bottom (base line) and top.

At this time labels are drawn centered, our developer will add a property to let you choose alignment.

The implementation of this feature would already improve the situation. However, one still still could not use the centered label option without risking to end up with ugly results, depending on the height of the columns. - Therefore it would be great to have centered labels automatically switch to a more useful label positioning mode whenever they don't fit the column anymore.

This build adds InnerLabelAlignment and InnerLabelClip properties to BarSeries class -

If you set InnerLabelAlignment to Center, it should work as you've described.

Yes!! Great work, this immensely increases the label rendering quality. Thanks for acting so quickly.

PS: You additionally need to set InnerLabelClip = False to make it work.
