Title: X-Axis labels overlapping
Post by: laks on 18 Jan 2010 09:39:55 PM
Hi All,

I have a chart with many data points on X-axis. If i use Automatic label control I am missing some labels so I used manual label control and set display frequency to 1. But the problem is labels are overlapping. Is it possible to change the X-axis label orientation to 90 degrees when using manual label control?

Please suggest solution.

Thanks.

Hi,

You should in theory be able to go to Page Explorer -> Classes and modify the Chart axis labels class to achieve this.  Off the top of my head, try setting the Text Flow & Justification - I think the writing mode can be defined as to to bottom.

Hi MF,

Thanks for reply. I tried it but no luck. After changing Text Flow & Justification>>Writing Mode to Top to Bottom still chart x-axis is displaying horizontally. Is there any other work around to achevie this?

Thanks
