Area Chart Legend with Series

https://www.nevron.com/Forum/Topic12193.aspx

hi,
Hi,

I have got an area chart with a series value which is a field in my dataset.

The legend for the chart is set to show the label of the series plus the label field of the value, seperated by a dash line, in the form of Group1 - Value1.

What I want is to only show the series label in the legend - only show Group1 - but if I leave the label field of the value empty, Nevron component still shows the dash (it shows Group1 - )  Is there a way around the issue?

Many thanks,
Vahid

Hi Vahid,

Currently the only workaround for this issue is to use custom code to remove the trailing dash - you can use the following code:

using System;
using System.Drawing;
using Nevron.GraphicsCore;
using Nevron.Chart;
using Nevron.ReportingServices;

namespace MyNamespace
{
 /// <summary>
 /// Sample class
 /// </summary>
 public class MyClass
 {
  /// <summary>
  /// Main entry point
  /// </summary>
  /// <param name="context"></param>
  public static void RSMain(NRSChartCodeContext context)
  {
   NChart chart = context.document.Charts[0];
   
   foreach (NSeriesBase series in chart.Series)
   {
    series.Name = series.Name.Trim();
    if (series.Name.EndsWith("-"))
    {
     series.Name = series.Name.Substring(0, series.Name.Length - 1);
     series.Name = series.Name.Trim();
    }
   }
  }
 }
}
(just copy paste the above code in the code tab of the SSRS designer)

Hope this helps let us know if you meet any problems or have any questions.
