I have a (horizontal) float bar chart, and i have some values that i'd like to display in labels on top of the bars.

Because my data is grouped, each row is actually made up of quite a few datapoints (otherwise i'd just use the data label).

Is there a way to display one label for each row, on the exact location of each row??

I have tried writing some code that figures out how many categories i have, and tried to position labels by calculating where they should go for each category - as a percentage of the total height, but this doesnt seem to be working out.

Hi Clare,

You should populate either the axis labels or the data labels series for each bar - for example:

// 1. Modify category labels of primary x axis

NOrdinalScaleConfigurator ordinalScale = chart.Axis(StandardAxis.PrimaryX).ScaleConfigurator as NOrdinalScaleConfigurator;

if (ordinalScale != null)

{

ordinalScale.AutoLabels = false;

// for each category add a label here

ordinalScale.Labels.Clear();

ordinalScale.Labels.Add("Category 1");

ordinalScale.Labels.Add("Category 2");

ordinalScale.Labels.Add("Category 3");

}

// 2. Modify data labels per data point

NBarSeries barSeries = new NBarSeries();

barSeries.Labels.Clear();

barSeries.Labels[0] = "Some Label For Bar 1";

barSeries.Labels[1] = "Some Label For Bar 2";

// etc.

Hope this helps - let us know if you meet any problems.
