DxChartAxisLabel.TextOverflow Property

Specifies how the chart displays overflowing axis labels.

Namespace: DevExpress.Blazor

Assembly: DevExpress.Blazor.v24.2.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.Blazor

Declaration

[DefaultValue(ChartTextOverflow.None)]
[Parameter]
public ChartTextOverflow TextOverflow { get; set; }

Property Value

Type Default Description
ChartTextOverflow None

A ChartTextOverflow enumeration value.

Available values:

Name Description
Ellipsis

Truncates text with an ellipsis.

Hide

Hides overflowing text.

None

Truncates text at the boundary of the content area.

Remarks

The DxChart component allows you to reserve an area for an axis and its labels (the PlaceholderSize property). When axis labels overflow this area, you can use the TextOverflow property to define how to display such labels.

Note

The TextOverflow property values do not apply if the DisplayMode or Overlap property is set to Rotate.

The following example changes the content area size for the argument axis and uses drop-down menus to choose how to display axis labels:

<DxChart Data="@GetData()" Width="100%" Height="500" Rotated="true">
    <DxChartTitle Text="Pizza Shop Complaints" CssClass="mb-2" />
    <DxChartLegend Visible="false" />
        <DxChartBarSeries ArgumentField="@((DataPoint s) => s.Complaint)"
                          ValueField="@((DataPoint s) => s.Count)" />
    <DxChartTooltip Enabled="true">
        <div style="margin: 0.75rem">
            <div class="fw-bold">@context.Point.Argument</div>
            <div>Complaint frequency: @context.Point.Value</div>
        </div>
    </DxChartTooltip>
    <DxChartArgumentAxis PlaceholderSize="@CurrentPlaceholderSize">
        <DxChartAxisLabel WordWrap="@CurrentWordWrap"
                          TextOverflow="@CurrentTextOverflow" />
    </DxChartArgumentAxis>
</DxChart>

@code {
    ChartTextOverflow CurrentTextOverflow = ChartTextOverflow.Ellipsis;
    ChartWordWrap CurrentWordWrap = ChartWordWrap.Normal;
    double CurrentPlaceholderSize = 55;
    List<DataPoint> GetData() {
        List<DataPoint> result = new List<DataPoint>(7);
        result.Add(new DataPoint("Delayed delivery", 1123));
        result.Add(new DataPoint("Cold pizza", 780));
        result.Add(new DataPoint("Damaged pizza", 321));
        result.Add(new DataPoint("Wrong size delivered", 222));
        result.Add(new DataPoint("Not enough cheese", 120));
        result.Add(new DataPoint("Incorrect billing", 89));
        result.Add(new DataPoint("Underbaked or Overbaked", 52));
        return result;
    }
    public class DataPoint {
        public string Complaint { get; set; }
        public int Count { get; set; }
        public DataPoint(string complaint, int count) {
            Complaint = complaint;
            Count = count;
        }
    }
}
