Vue Chart - commonSeriesSettings.label

Configures point labels.

Selector: DxLabel
Type:

Object

Declared in commonSeriesSettings, the label settings apply to all point labels in the chart. Declared in a series configuration object, the label settings apply only to the point labels that belong to this particular series. The series-specific label settings override the common ones.

alignment

Aligns point labels in relation to their points.

Type:

HorizontalAlignment

Default Value: 'center'

This property accepts the following values:

  • center
    Displays labels in the center of the point.

  • left
    Aligns the left corner of the label to the center of the point.

  • right
    Aligns the right corner of the label to the center of the point.

NOTE
This property has no effect if the rotated property is enabled.

argumentFormat

Formats the point argument before it is displayed in the point label. To format the point value, use the format property.

Selector: DxArgumentFormat
Type:

Format

| undefined
Default Value: undefined

A point label displays only the point value by default. Using the label.customizeText property, you can instruct the label to display the point argument as well. The argumentFormat property applies in this case only. This property accepts an object whose fields are described in the format section.

font

Specifies font properties for point labels.

Selector: DxFont
Type:

Object

format

Formats the point value before it is displayed in the point label.

Selector: DxFormat
Type:

Format

| undefined
Default Value: undefined

See the format section for information on accepted values.

If you specify the format with an object and apply it to a full-stacked-like series, this object can also contain the percentPrecision field. Full-stacked-like series points have absolute and percentage values. The percentPrecision field specifies how many decimal digits the percentage values should have:

JavaScript
format: {
    type: "fixedPoint", // the format of absolute values
    precision: 1, // the precision of absolute values (123.456 --> 123.4)
    percentPrecision: 2 // the precision of percentage values (12.3456 % --> 12.34 %)
}

horizontalOffset

Along with verticalOffset, shifts point labels from their initial positions.

Selector: horizontal-offset
