Namespace: DevExpress.Xpf.Charts

Assembly: DevExpress.Xpf.Charts.v24.2.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.Wpf.Charts

#Declaration

public LayoutDirection LayoutDirection { get; set; }

#Property Value

Type Description
LayoutDirection

A LayoutDirection enumeration value.

Available values:

Name Description
Horizontal

Specifies that pie charts are positioned horizontally (by rows) within a chart control’s diagram. The number of pie charts within a single row is specified by the diagram’s SimpleDiagram2D.Dimension or SimpleDiagram3D.Dimension property.

Vertical

Specifies that pie charts are positioned vertically (by columns) within a chart control’s diagram. The number of pie charts within a single column is specified by the diagram’s SimpleDiagram2D.Dimension or SimpleDiagram3D.Dimension property.

#Remarks

The LayoutDirection property can be used together with the SimpleDiagram3D.Dimension property to adjust the layout of more than one pie chart within a diagram. Depending upon the LayoutDirection property’s setting, pie charts are positioned in lines either horizontally (by rows) or vertically (by columns). The SimpleDiagram3D.Dimension property specifies how many pie charts can be displayed within one row or column.

Note that a pie chart(s) that is displayed within an incomplete row or column automatically changes its size, to attempt to occupy all the available free space.
