How to customize the appearance of chart axes in WinForms Chart?

2 mins read

This document provides instructions for customizing the appearance of chart axes in Syncfusion® WinForms Chart. Customizations can include setting the color, width, and dash style of an axis.

  • Use the ForeColor property of the axes to set the desired color.
  • Utilize the LineType.Width() method to modify the width of the axis.
  • Use the LineType.DashStyle() method to set the dash style of the axis. 

C#

this.chartControl1.PrimaryXAxis.ForeColor = System.Drawing.Color.Blue;
this.chartControl1.PrimaryXAxis.LineType.Width = 2;
this.chartControl1.PrimaryXAxis.LineType.DashStyle = System.Drawing.Drawing2D.DashStyle.Dash;

this.chartControl1.PrimaryYAxis.ForeColor = System.Drawing.Color.Blue;
this.chartControl1.PrimaryYAxis.LineType.Width = 2;
this.chartControl1.PrimaryYAxis.LineType.DashStyle = System.Drawing.Drawing2D.DashStyle.Dash;
VB .NET
columnChart.PrimaryXAxis.ForeColor = System.Drawing.Color.Blue
columnChart.PrimaryXAxis.LineType.Width = 2
columnChart.PrimaryXAxis.LineType.DashStyle = System.Drawing.Drawing2D.DashStyle.Dash

columnChart.PrimaryYAxis.ForeColor = System.Drawing.Color.Blue
columnChart.PrimaryYAxis.LineType.Width = 2
columnChart.PrimaryYAxis.LineType.DashStyle = System.Drawing.Drawing2D.DashStyle.Dash
Output:
