Description

TdxSizeFloat

The ItemIndent.Width property value specifies the distance (in pixels at 96 DPI) between columns of legend items. The horizontal legend item indent has no effect if the legend pane layout includes only one column of legend items. The ItemIndent.Height property value specifies the distance (in pixels at 96 DPI) between rows of legend items. The vertical legend item indent has no effect if all legend items are arranged into one row.

Remarks

Use ItemIndent.Width and ItemIndent.Height properties to shrink or expand gaps between columns and rows of legend items, respectively.

Property Values and Scaling

ItemIndent.Width and ItemIndent.Height properties specify the base pixel distances between legend items that correspond to 96 DPI. The Chart control’s draw routines multiply ItemIndent.Width and ItemIndent.Height property values by the current scale factor and round the results to the nearest integer to calculate the actual distances between legend items on the target screen.

Default Value

The ItemIndent property’s default value is the DefaultItemIndent typed constant.

Footnotes

1. These examples demonstrate different ItemIndent.Width and ItemIndent.Height property values for the same simple diagram with one Doughnut series under the following conditions:

   • The diagram’s Legend.AlignmentHorz property is set to TdxChartLegendAlignment.Far.
   • The Legend.AlignmentVert property is set to TdxChartLegendAlignment.Near.
