Gets or sets the value that indicates whether or not to rotate axis labels when resolving overlapping labels.
Namespace : DevExpress.XtraCharts
Assembly : DevExpress.XtraCharts.v25.2.dll
NuGet Package : DevExpress.Charts
public bool AllowRotate { get; set; }
Public Property AllowRotate As Boolean
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| Boolean |
true , if rotating axis labels is allowed; otherwise, false.

The following images demonstrate this property in action.
| AllowRotate = false | AllowRotate = true |

Use the AxisLabelResolveOverlappingOptions.AllowStagger, AllowRotate and AxisLabelResolveOverlappingOptions.AllowHide properties to define which algorithms can be used when resolving overlapping axis labels.
Note
The AllowRotate and AxisLabelResolveOverlappingOptions.AllowStagger properties only affect labels of a horizontal XY-Diagram axis (an arguments x-axis or values y-axis when XYDiagram.Rotated is enabled).
Refer to the Axis Labels document for more detail about axis labels.
The following code snippets (auto-collected from DevExpress Examples) contain references to the AllowRotate property.
Note
The algorithm used to collect these code examples remains a work in progress. Accordingly, the links and snippets below may produce inaccurate results. If you encounter an issue with code examples below, please use the feedback form on this page to report the issue.
