How to Set Legend Custom Position

Hi,

I am trying to set the Legend Custom Position but its not applying on chart.

How can i do that? I am using below code sniff.

chart.Legend.Position = LegendPositionTypeEx.NotDefined;

chart.Legend.X = chart.X + (chart.PlotArea.Width)* chart.Width;

chart.Legend.Y = chart.Y;

chart.Width = chart.Width - (chart.PlotArea.Width * chart.Width);

chart.Height = chart.Height;

But its not working for me. It always take the position as "Right" and does not set custom Height and Width.

Thanks,

Amit

Hi Amit,

I have observed the requirement shared and like to share that the feature for setting the legend position is working. You need to set the position values from 0 to 1. 0 means the top left corner of the chart and 1 means the bottom right corner of the chart. Please use the following sample code for your convenience.

public static void AddMultipleChart()
{
PresentationEx pres = new PresentationEx();

SlideEx slide = pres.Slides[0];

ChartEx chart = slide.Shapes.AddChart(ChartTypeEx.ClusteredColumn, 50, 50, 500, 450);

//Getting the chart data worksheet

ChartDataCellFactory fact = chart.ChartData.ChartDataCellFactory;


chart.SecondValueAxis.IsVisible = true;
chart.SecondCategoryAxis.IsVisible = true;
//Adding new series
int id = chart.ChartData.Series.Add(fact.GetCell(0, 0, 4, “Line 1”), ChartTypeEx.Line);

//Take first chart series
ChartSeriesEx series = chart.ChartData.Series[id];

//Add Series values
series.Values.Add(fact.GetCell(0, 1, 4, 1));
series.Values.Add(fact.GetCell(0, 2, 4, 4));
series.Values.Add(fact.GetCell(0, 3, 4, 2));
series.Values.Add(fact.GetCell(0, 4, 4, 6));

//Changing the chart series marker
series.MarkerSize = 10;
series.MarkerSymbol = MarkerStyleTypeEx.Star;
series.PlotOnSecondAxis = true;

// chart.Legend.Position = LegendPositionTypeEx.Left;
chart.Legend.Position = LegendPositionTypeEx.NotDefined;

chart.Legend.X = 0;
chart.Legend.Y = 0;

chart.Legend.X = 1;
chart.Legend.Y = 1;


pres.Write(“D:\Aspose Data\TestChart.pptx”);
}


Please share, if I may help you further in this regard.

Many Thanks,
