Vertical line annotation text issue and move issue

[Akshay Joglekar]

Hi, 

I am using vertical line annotation in chart. But If I click on the line drawn and drag the mouse then line moves along with mouse on graph. Is there any way to stop this line moving from its original place?

Also I am assigning some text to vertical line annotation with text allignment set to 'Right'. I am using 5 different vertical line annotations with different text but same settings else where. But the distance between line and text is different for different text. How can I control that distance between text and Line.

Hi Akshay, 

 

Thanks for using Syncfusion products. Please find the details below.  

 

Query 1: Is there any way to stop this line moving from its original place? 

 

You can achieve this by setting CanDrag as false in annotation as per the below code snippet.  

 

Code snippet 

<chart:SfChart.Annotations> 

                <chart:VerticalLineAnnotation X1="1" Text="Annotation " CanDrag="False" 

                                              HorizontalTextAlignment="Right" /> 

.. 

 

 

 

Query 2: Also, I am assigning some text to vertical line annotation with text allignment set to 'Right'. I am using 5 different vertical line annotations with different text but same settings else where. But the distance between line and text is different for different text. How can I control that distance between text and Line.

Hi Akshay, 

 

Thanks for your update, we have analyzed your requirement and you can achieve this by setting ContentTemplate for annotation and setting Margin for text element as per the below code snippet.  

 

Code snippet 

 

  <chart:SfChart.Annotations> 

                <chart:VerticalLineAnnotation X1="1" CanDrag="False" > 

                    <chart:VerticalLineAnnotation.ContentTemplate> 

                        <DataTemplate> 

                            <TextBlock Text="Annotation" Margin="-200,0,0,0"/> 

                        </DataTemplate> 

                    </chart:VerticalLineAnnotation.ContentTemplate> 

                </chart:VerticalLineAnnotation> 

                <chart:VerticalLineAnnotation X1="2" CanDrag="False"   > 

                    <chart:VerticalLineAnnotation.ContentTemplate> 

                        <DataTemplate> 

                            <TextBlock Text="Annotation Text" Margin="-200,0,0,0"/> 

                        </DataTemplate> 

                    </chart:VerticalLineAnnotation.ContentTemplate> 

                </chart:VerticalLineAnnotation> 

                <chart:VerticalLineAnnotation X1="3" CanDrag="False" > 

                    <chart:VerticalLineAnnotation.ContentTemplate> 

                        <DataTemplate> 

                            <TextBlock Text="Annotation Text Text" Margin="-200,0,0,0"/> 

                        </DataTemplate> 

                    </chart:VerticalLineAnnotation.ContentTemplate> 

                </chart:VerticalLineAnnotation> 

                <chart:VerticalLineAnnotation X1="4" CanDrag="False"   > 

                    <chart:VerticalLineAnnotation.ContentTemplate> 

                        <DataTemplate> 

                            <TextBlock Text="Text" Margin="-200,0,0,0"/> 

                        </DataTemplate> 

                    </chart:VerticalLineAnnotation.ContentTemplate> 

                </chart:VerticalLineAnnotation> 

            </chart:SfChart.Annotations>
