How to place the legend at a custom location in Blazor Charts?

This article explains how to place the legend at a custom location in Blazor Charts.

Place the Legend at a Custom Location

Blazor Charts provides an option to place the legend at a custom location. The ChartLocation is used to set the position of the legend. By specifying X and Y values within ChartLegendSettings, you can define the exact position of the legend on the chart, allowing for custom positioning using these X and Y offsets.

In this code snippet, the ChartLegendSettings is used to customize the position of the legend in a chart. By setting the Position property to LegendPosition.Custom and providing specific X and Y values through the ChartLocation, you can precisely place the legend at the desired location on the chart.

@using Syncfusion.Blazor.Charts

<SfChart>
   <ChartPrimaryXAxis ValueType="Syncfusion.Blazor.Charts.ValueType.Category"></ChartPrimaryXAxis>
   <ChartSeriesCollection>
       <ChartSeries DataSource="@Sales" Name="Sales" XName="Month" YName="SalesValue" Type="ChartSeriesType.Column">
       </ChartSeries>
   </ChartSeriesCollection>
   <ChartLegendSettings Position="LegendPosition.Custom"  Visible="true">
       <ChartLocation X="30" Y="20"></ChartLocation>
   </ChartLegendSettings>
</SfChart>

@code {
   public class SalesInfo
   {
       public string Month { get; set; }
       public double SalesValue { get; set; }
   }

   public List<SalesInfo> Sales = new List<SalesInfo>
   {
       new SalesInfo { Month = "Jan", SalesValue = 35 },
       new SalesInfo { Month = "Feb", SalesValue = 28 },
       new SalesInfo { Month = "Mar", SalesValue = 34 },
       new SalesInfo { Month = "Apr", SalesValue = 32 },
       new SalesInfo { Month = "May", SalesValue = 40 },
       new SalesInfo { Month = "Jun", SalesValue = 32 },
       new SalesInfo { Month = "Jul", SalesValue = 35 }
   };
}
