Use only custom label in X-axis in .NET chart
Alright, I looked into Label
controls on MSDN. In order to make the custom label appear in place of the normal label, I set the RowIndex
parameter to 0
, replacing the default label row. The final code for the custom rows looked like this:
int month = XValues[0].Month;
var XAxis = Chart4.ChartAreas[0].AxisX;
DateTime StartMonthPos = XValues[0];
DateTime EndPos = new DateTime();
foreach (DateTime Date in XValues)
{
EndPos = Date;
if (Date.Month != month)
{
Chart4.ChartAreas[0].AxisX.CustomLabels.Add(StartMonthPos.ToOADate(),
EndPos.ToOADate(), StartMonthPos.ToString("MMMM"), 0, LabelMarkStyle.None);
StartMonthPos = Date;
}
month = Date.Month;
}
XAxis.CustomLabels.Add(StartMonthPos.ToOADate(), EndPos.ToOADate(),
StartMonthPos.ToString("MMMM"), 0, LabelMarkStyle.None);

I'm making a .NET line graph in C# with an X-axis interval of weeks. For my project, I only want to be using the custom label, but for now I still want the gridlines. Does anyone know a way to hide the default X-Axis labels while still keeping the custom labels?
I tried this:
Chart4.ChartAreas[0].AxisX.LabelStyle.Enabled = false;
The obvious result is that there were no labels applied, which is not what I was trying to do.
EDIT: The code for generating the original rows was this:
Chart4.ChartAreas["ChartArea1"].AxisX.LabelStyle.Format = "M";
And the code for the custom label was this:
int month = XValues[0].Month; var XAxis = Chart4.ChartAreas[0].AxisX; DateTime StartMonthPos = XValues[0]; DateTime EndPos = new DateTime(); foreach (DateTime Date in XValues) { EndPos = Date; if (Date.Month != month) { Chart4.ChartAreas[0].AxisX.CustomLabels.Add(StartMonthPos.ToOADate(), EndPos.ToOADate(), StartMonthPos.ToString("MMMM"), 1, LabelMarkStyle.None); StartMonthPos = Date; } month = Date.Month; } XAxis.CustomLabels.Add(StartMonthPos.ToOADate(), EndPos.ToOADate(), StartMonthPos.ToString("MMMM"), 1, LabelMarkStyle.None);
The chart looks like this:
And it should look like this:
