Use attached to reproduce. Workaround: Use custom renderer: private void RadChartView1_CreateRenderer(object sender, ChartViewCreateRendererEventArgs e) { e.Renderer = new CustomCartesianRenderer(e.Area as CartesianArea); } public class CustomCartesianRenderer : CartesianRenderer { public CustomCartesianRenderer(CartesianArea area) : base(area) { } protected override void Initialize() { base.Initialize(); for (int i = 0; i < this.DrawParts.Count; i++) { CartesianGridLineAnnotationDrawPart linePart = this.DrawParts[i] as CartesianGridLineAnnotationDrawPart; if (linePart != null) { this.DrawParts[i] = new MyCartesianGridLineAnnotationDrawPart((CartesianGridLineAnnotation)linePart.Element, this); } } } } class MyCartesianGridLineAnnotationDrawPart : CartesianGridLineAnnotationDrawPart { public MyCartesianGridLineAnnotationDrawPart(CartesianGridLineAnnotation element, CartesianRenderer renderer) : base(element, renderer) { } public override void Draw() { PropertyInfo modelProperty = typeof(CartesianGridLineAnnotation).GetProperty("Model", System.Reflection.BindingFlags.Instance | System.Reflection.BindingFlags.NonPublic); object model = modelProperty.GetValue(this.Element); PropertyInfo layoutProperty = model.GetType().GetProperty("LayoutSlot", BindingFlags.Public | BindingFlags.Instance); RadRect radRect = (RadRect)layoutProperty.GetValue(model); RectangleF rect = ChartRenderer.ToRectangleF(radRect); rect.Offset(this.ViewportOffsetX, this.ViewportOffsetY); Graphics graphics = this.Renderer.Surface as Graphics; RadGdiGraphics radGraphics = new RadGdiGraphics(graphics); var clipRect = ChartRenderer.ToRectangle(this.Element.View.GetArea<CartesianArea>().AreaModel.PlotArea.LayoutSlot); clipRect.Offset((int)this.ViewportOffsetX,(int) this.ViewportOffsetY); graphics.SetClip(clipRect); GraphicsPath path = new GraphicsPath(); path.AddLine(rect.Location, new PointF(rect.Right, rect.Bottom)); BorderPrimitiveImpl border = new BorderPrimitiveImpl(this.Element, null); border.PaintBorder(radGraphics, null, path, rect); rect.Size = graphics.MeasureString(this.Element.Label, this.Element.Font); rect.Offset(this.Element.PositonOffset.Width + 1, this.Element.PositonOffset.Height + 1); TextParams tp = new TextParams(); tp.font = this.Element.Font; tp.foreColor = this.Element.ForeColor; tp.paintingRectangle = rect; tp.text = this.Element.Label; TextPrimitiveHtmlImpl text = new TextPrimitiveHtmlImpl(); text.PaintPrimitive(radGraphics, 0f, new SizeF(1f, 1f), tp); } }
