allow for the chart plot area to be fixed width not counting the axis text. the issue I have is the legend on right side of chart changes the widths of chart when the text is long.
You can fix this issue as follows: 1) Set enough margin between the plotarea and the legend - http://docs.telerik.com/devtools/aspnet-ajax/controls/htmlchart/appearance-and-styling/labels-and-titles-font-settings#setting-text-styles-for-titles-and-labels. 2) Use custom position for the legend - http://docs.telerik.com/devtools/aspnet-ajax/controls/htmlchart/appearance-and-styling/legend-settings#position-and-alignment.
