[XtraSerializableProperty]
public string LegendItemPattern { get; set; }

Property Value

Type Description
String

A string that formats legend item text.

Remarks

Patterns can contain regular text (displayed as is) and value placeholders in braces. To format numeric and date/time values, you can apply format specifiers. Use a colon to separate a placeholder and its format specifier (for example, “{V:f0}”).

The following table contains the available placeholders:

Placeholder Description
{L} Displays the group name.
{V} Displays the total value of group items.
{V1} Displays the first value of the range for a TreeMapRangeColorizer.
{V2} Displays the second value of the range for a TreeMapRangeColorizer.
