Common requirement of StockChart, or other time-based charts is to indicate events on the timeline. e.g. Dividends, stock splits, etc.
Here is an example; see the D and S events indicated on chart
To support this, we need to be able to supply a dataset of time-based events, that will be overlayed with indicators on the chart.
Hi Phil,
Thank you for confirming your expectations on the desired functionality! I've updated the title of the request.

Yes, that "Series Notes" functionality is exactly the sort of thing I was describing.

Hi Phil,
Thank you for the additional details! In the shared example, it looked to me that the events are associated with the axis rather than with one of the series. However, it is also possible to expose an option to add Series Notes - this functionality will allow you to display additional information for series points.
Can you please take a look at this option and let me know which of the suggested functionalities is closer to your desired scenario? I can then update the feature request if needed.
Thank you in advance!

Thanks,
Axis Notes is sort of it, but its actually better if the markers are placed on a corresponding chart (line, Candle, etc), as usually, what people are aiming to flag causes for shifts in data.
So I'd prefer if there is a feature request, it would be for "Data Event Markers", rather than Axis notes, but again, its similar.
Thanks,
Phil
Hi Phil,
This will indeed be a useful enhancement for the StockChart. In the context of Telerik products, such events are called Axis Notes. That said, I updated the title of the request and its status.
In the example you shared, I see that the axis events also have tooltips. So, I added this requirement to the request title. At this stage, I cannot confirm the exact implementation - whether it will be a built-in tooltip or we will expose an option to attach a Tooltip component to the notes, for example. However, it is important that we have this requirement listed in order to ensure we will meet the community's expectations when working on this enhancement.
I also added your vote to increase the popularity of the item - we keep track of the gathered community votes to prioritize the component enhancements based on the demand. As a creator, you are automatically subscribed and will receive status updates.
