How to customize the Chart Title in WinForms Chart control?

In WinForms Chart control, the chart title can be customized both at design time and runtime. At design time, you can modify the title using the Properties window by accessing the Title property under the ChartControl object. At runtime, the title can be programmatically adjusted to change its text, color, and position. Additionally, you can enable or disable the chart title as needed using Visible property.

The following code snippets demonstrate how to apply chart title customizations at runtime. 

this.chartControl1 = new ChartControl();
. . .

// Specifying Chart Title
this.chartControl1.Title.Text = "My Chart";
this.chartControl1.Title.Alignment = ChartAlignment.Center;
this.chartControl1.Title.Position = ChartDock.Bottom;
this.chartControl1.Title.Visible = true;

// Specifying Color
this.chartControl1.Title.BackColor = Color.Lavender;
this.chartControl1.Title.ForeColor = Color.Green;
this.chartControl1.Title.Font = new Font("Arial", 14.0f);

Me.ChartControl1 = New ChartControl()
. . .

' Specifying Chart Title
Me.ChartControl1.Title.Text = "My Chart"
Me.ChartControl1.Title.Alignment = ChartAlignment.Center
Me.ChartControl1.Title.Position = ChartDock.Bottom
Me.ChartControl1.Title.Visible = True

' Specifying Color
Me.ChartControl1.Title.BackColor = Color.Lavender
Me.ChartControl1.Title.ForeColor = Color.Green
Me.ChartControl1.Title.Font = New Font("Arial", 14.0F)

To display the border of the title, the ShowBorder property is used. The border's forecolor, dash style, and width can also be modified.

// Specifying Border Properties
this.chartControl1.Title.ShowBorder = true;
this.chartControl1.Title.Border.ForeColor = Color.Red;
this.chartControl1.Title.Border.DashStyle = DashStyle.Dot;
this.chartControl1.Title.Border.Width = 2f;

' Specifying Border Properties
Me.ChartControl1.Title.ShowBorder = True
Me.ChartControl1.Title.Border.ForeColor = Color.Red
Me.ChartControl1.Title.Border.DashStyle = DashStyle.Dot
Me.ChartControl1.Title.Border.Width = 2.0F
