CustomizeXAxisLabelsEventArgs.Staggered Property

Specifies whether the X-axis labels should be staggered.

Namespace: DevExpress.XtraCharts

Assembly: DevExpress.XtraCharts.v20.2.dll

NuGet Packages: DevExpress.Charts, DevExpress.WindowsDesktop.Charts

Declaration

C#

public bool Staggered { get; set; }

VB.NET

Public Property Staggered As Boolean

Property Value

Type	Description
Boolean	true to stagger the X-axis labels; otherwise, false. This value is assigned to the CustomizeXAxisLabelsEventArgs.Staggered property.

Remarks

When a familiar data source (such as the PivotGridControl) is assigned to the ChartControl.DataSource property, the AxisLabel.Staggered property of the X-axis labels is auto-adjusted, and it’s impossible to customize this property at design time.

Use the Staggered property, to set a value for this property at runtime, in the ChartControl.CustomizeXAxisLabels (or, WebChartControl.CustomizeXAxisLabels) event handler.

For more information, see Pivot Charting (Integration with a Pivot Grid Control).
