Point Series Labels

To enable series labels, set the PointSeries.Label property to the MarkerSeriesLabel object, and use this object’s properties to adjust the label settings:

  • TextPattern - Formats series label text.
    A pattern includes regular text (which is displayed as is) and placeholder strings enclosed in braces. Placeholders define which values are shown in labels. You can use the following placeholders to specify the text pattern for point series’ labels:

    Placeholder

    Description

    {S}

    Displays a series name.

    {A}

    Displays a series point argument.

    {V}

    Displays a series point value.

    Note

    To format these values, you can use default format strings after the $ sign.
    For example, in the {V$#.##} string, V is a placeholder, $ is a format string separator, and #.## is a format string.

  • Angle, Indent - Specify how a label is positioned relative to a series point.
  • Style - Provides access to the SeriesLabelStyle object that stores label appearance settings (TextStyle).
  • Visible - Allows you to show or hide labels for the series.
