Syntax

Visual Basic
C#

'Declaration
 
<CategoryAttribute("Position")>
<DefaultValueAttribute()>
<DescriptionAttribute("The horizontal margin of the legend in percents of the control view area width")>
Public Property HorizontalMargin As Integer

'Usage
 
Dim instance As Legend
Dim value As Integer
 
instance.HorizontalMargin = value
 
value = instance.HorizontalMargin

[Category("Position")]
[DefaultValue()]
[Description("The horizontal margin of the legend in percents of the control view area width")]
public int HorizontalMargin {get; set;}

Remarks

The legend position is controlled with the help of the HorizontalMargin, VerticalMargin, HorzAlign and VertAlign properties of the Legend object. The first two define the margins of the legend in percents of the control window dimensions and the latter two how the legend should align to the margins.

Example

The following example positions the legend at the top of the control window.

Visual Basic

legend.HorzAlign = HorzAlign.Center
legend.VertAlign = VertAlign.Top
legend.HorizontalMargin = 50
legend.VerticalMargin = 3

legend.HorzAlign = HorzAlign.Center;
legend.VertAlign = VertAlign.Top;
legend.HorizontalMargin = 50;
legend.VerticalMargin = 3;

Requirements
