图表注释:如何沿数据点的轴对齐注释

时间:2016-05-04 10:12:39

标签: c# vb.net charts

我已将注释与数据点对齐;我想垂直对齐注释。

我已经读过这篇文章,但无法弄清楚如何将图表宽度与数据点联系起来。 https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd456731.aspx

而且:MS Charting Annotations refuse to align to mouse position

到目前为止,我添加了图表的图片。

Chart控件中定位相当复杂。

首先,图表有三个坐标系:

  • 数据值
  • 某些区域的百分比,最值得注意的是ChartAreaInnerPlotPosition
  • Chart控件的ClientArea
  • 的像素

实现Annotations对齐的最简单方法是首先将每个对齐到DataPoint

MyTextAnnotation.AnchorDataPoint = MyDataPoint 

接下来,您将X-Position覆盖为您喜欢的

MyTextAnnotation.X = someValue;

一些注意事项:

  • 虽然默认,但Annotation.Position会使用percentages,在锚定之后 DataPoint ,它会使用代替。所以使用50不会放在中间的某个地方,而是放在右边......

查看您的图表我建议使用值3

  • 如果您的值有所不同,此定位也会有所不同。当您调整图表大小时,轴将调整大小并且注释也会移动。

Btw:百分比与下一个外部容器有关:ChartAreasChart.ClientRectangleInnerPlotPostionChartArea以及每个元素到容器它停靠在..

  • 默认情况下,Positions设置为自动,因此其值为NaN。要访问(当前)值,您可以调用ElementPosition.ToRectangleF()

  • 另请注意,Chart's Axes上有几个函数可以转换值,像素和百分比位置。

但是,您需要找到有效的时刻来调用这些功能;如果Chart未完成布局,则会返回null

您可以安全地在三个Paint事件之一中调用它们,或者响应用户交互(如鼠标事件)。

以下是如何使用它们将所有Annotations定位到(某种程度上)固定的像素位置:

private void chart1_PostPaint(object sender, ChartPaintEventArgs e)
{
    Axis AY = chart1.ChartAreas[0].AxisY;

    double pypx = AY.ValueToPosition(AY.PixelPositionToValue(30));

    foreach (TextAnnotation ta in chart1.Annotations)
    {
        ta.X = pypx;
    }
}

现在,在调整图表大小或数据值增大或缩小时,Annotations不会移动。至少不是很多;可以看到一些跳跃。要么是因为我错过了某些东西,要么是因为四舍五入问题。

但我建议采用更简单的方法将X-Position设置为轴上的固定值..:

MyTextAnnotation.X = 3;

这会把它们放在你画的黄线上。
