Showing legend for Single Series charts

[MrReddy]

We are currently using Single Series charts (Pie3d.swf, Column3D.swf and Line.swf) for our application. Everything is working as expected. In case of column chart (or line graph), we are displaying the x-axis labels in a slant manner (slantLabels="1") to avoid overlapping on each other.

The problem occurs when we get lengthy labels for x-axis (populated dynamically), which eats up a lot of space of the chart thus making the chart itself to display with reduced height. Sometimes, also causing y-axis labels to overlap.

We want to display x-axis labels as legends in these special cases. While I looked for possibility of using legends, it seems we could use them only for Multi-series or Combination charts. I am more surprised that the legends cant be used to display x-axis labels... Is this assumption current. I am hoping that someone can disagree with my point or provide some clue on how I can address this particular issue.

Hi,

SingleSeries charts as of now does not support Legend. But you can use a special chart SSGrid to show legends like data.

Could you please let me know how I could use SSGrid for this scenario? I could not see the XML Reference from the documentation.
