The Chart control offers a built-in annotation tool to allow you to include floating text bars or images in your charts or call attention to specific items or values in your charts using the line and text bar controls included in the Annotation Collection Editor.
 |
The following properties are important when setting up annotations for your chart:
- StartPoint Sets the starting point (X and Y axis values) for an annotation line.
- EndPoint Sets the end point (X and Y axis values) for an annotation line.
- AnchorPlacement Sets the position of the anchor point for the text bar on the chart surface.
- AnchorPoint Sets the point (X and Y axis values) where the text bar will be anchored based on the anchor placement selected.
The following code demonstrates creating annotation lines and text bars, setting their properties, and adding them to the series annotations collection at run time. The results are shown in the screen shot above.
- In design view of the report, double-click the section where you placed your chart. This creates a Format event handling method for the section.
- Add code to the handler to create annotation lines and text bars.

Titles and Footers
The Chart control allows you to add custom titles to your charts. The Titles collection is accessible from the Chart object. With the ability to add as many titles as needed, dock them to any side of a chart area, change all of the font properties, add borders and shadows, make the background look the way you want it, and change the location of the text, you can easily make your titles look the way you want them to look.
 |
The following code demonstrates creating header and footer titles, setting their properties, and adding them to the titles collection at run time.
- In design view of the report, double-click the section where you placed your chart. This creates a Format event handling method for the section.
- Add code to the handler to create header and footer titles.

Legends
The Chart control automatically creates a legend item for each series added to a chart at design time and sets the Legend property for each series by default. However, the legend's Visible property must be set to True for the legend to show with the chart. The text for each default legend entry is taken from the Name property on the series.
 |
The following code demonstrates how to create a legend at run time, add it to the legends collection for the Chart object and set the legend property of the series to the new legend, resulting in the legend shown above.
Note: Each Series to be shown in the Legend must have a Name. If the Name property is not set, the Series does not show up in the Legend.
- In design view of the report, double-click the section where you placed your chart. This creates a Format event handling method for the section.
- Add code to the handler to create a legend.

Constant Lines and Stripes
The Chart control supports constant lines and stripes through the use of the WallRanges collection. It allows you to display horizontal or vertical lines or stripes in a chart to highlight certain areas. For example, you could draw a stripe in a chart to draw attention to a high level in the data or draw a line to show the average value of the data presented.
 |
Important properties
- EndValue Sets the end value on the primary axis for the wall range.
- StartValue Sets the start value on the primary axis for the wall range.
- PrimaryAxis Sets the axis on which the wall range appears.
The following code demonstrates how to create wall ranges, set their properties, and assign them to a chart area at run time. The results are shown in the image above.
- In design view of the report, double-click the section where you placed your chart. This creates a Format event handling method for the section.
