Comparing labelDisplay=rotate and rotateLabel=1

[aishmishra]

I have been trying hard to understand the purpose(s) served by labelDisplay=rotate and rotateLabel=1.

 

Are these two dependent on each other or are they two different properties altogether

 

If yes, then how?

 

If no, then what is the difference between these two options.

 

 

 

Thanks, in advance, for your reply

Hi Ashim,

Welcome to FusionCharts forum.

In case you need to rotate the x-axis labels, you need to set labelDisplay='Rotate'.

In case you need to slant the labels at 45 degree, please try using labelDisplay='Rotate' slantLabels='1' for the same.

For further details please refer to the link below:-

Hope this helps.

Hi Basundhara,

 

 

 

Thanks for the reply.

 

However here is my doubt.

 

 

 

Does it mean rotateLabel is not a relevant option?

 

 

 

I need to create a UI for taking in fusion chart configuration properties and need to know if I need to provide user the ability to change rotateLabel.

Hi Ashim,

You are welcome.

In case you use  labelDisplay='Rotate', it will rotate the datalabels at 90 degree.

To rotate your data labels at an angle of 45 degree, you need to set labelDisplay='Rotate' slantLabels='1'.

Please note that, to activate the attribute slantLabels you need to set the value of the labelDisplay to 'Rotate' .

Hope this helps.
