Legend in Windows Forms Pivot Chart
9 Dec 2019 / 1 minute to read
By default, the pivot chart displays a legend with information on each series that has been plotted on the chart. The legendĀ is a color code that helps to differentiate between chart items, and it has labels beside each color to indicate that it applies to information from series 1, series 2, and so on. The legend is made visible in the pivot chart by using the ShowLegend
property.
this.pivotChart1.ShowLegend = true;
Me.pivotChart1.ShowLegend = True
The legends having integral floating support can be placed anywhere in the chart area.
this.pivotChart1.LegendPosition = Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Chart.ChartDock.Floating;
Me.pivotChart1.LegendPosition = Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Chart.ChartDock.Floating
The legend alignment can be marked within the chart area by using the LegendAlignment enumeration.
this.pivotChart1.LegendAlignment = Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Chart.ChartAlignment.Center;
Me.pivotChart1.LegendAlignment = Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Chart.ChartAlignment.Center
The legend positioning can be affected in the following ways.
Chart Legend Properties | Description |
---|---|

* Top-above the chart
* Left-left of the chart
