Use an axis’s Label property to customize heatmap axis label settings. The example below configures label alignment, rotation, format pattern, and border settings of x-axis labels:

XAML

<dxh:HeatmapControl.AxisX>
    <dxh:HeatmapAxis>
        <dxh:HeatmapAxis.Label>
            <dxc:AxisLabel Background="LightGray" 
                        BorderBrush="Gray" 
                        BorderThickness="1"
                        Foreground="Black"
                        TextPattern="Division: {X}" 
                        Angle="30"/>
        </dxh:HeatmapAxis.Label>
    </dxh:HeatmapAxis>
</dxh:HeatmapControl.AxisX>

You can also use templates to customize label content and appearance: assign a DataTemplate object to the label ElementTemplate property:

XAML

<Window.Resources>
    <DataTemplate x:Key="labelTemplate">
        <Label Content="{Binding Value}" 
               Background="LightGray"/>
    </DataTemplate>
</Window.Resources>
<!--...-->
    <dxh:HeatmapControl.AxisX>
        <dxh:HeatmapAxis>
            <dxh:HeatmapAxis.Label>
                <dxc:AxisLabel ElementTemplate="{StaticResource ResourceKey=labelTemplate}"/>
            </dxh:HeatmapAxis.Label>
        </dxh:HeatmapAxis>
    </dxh:HeatmapControl.AxisX>
