IntervalOptionsBase.UnderflowValuePattern Property

Gets or sets a format string that configures text for the underflow interval axis labels and crosshair labels.

Assembly : DevExpress.XtraCharts.v25.2.dll

Declaration

C#
VB.NET

csharp

public string UnderflowValuePattern { get; set; }

Public Property UnderflowValuePattern As String

Property Value

Type	Description
String

A format string.

Remarks

Patterns can contain regular text (displayed as is) and value placeholders in braces. To format numeric and date/time values, you can apply Format Specifiers. Use a colon to separate a placeholder and its format specifier.

The following table contains the available placeholders:

Placeholder	Description
{OB}	Displays an opening bracket.
{CB}	Displays a closing bracket.
{A2}	Displays the interval end value.

Example

This example demonstrates how to create a histogram chart with bins of a given width.

C#
VB.NET

csharp

private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) {
    // Load data to a chart.
    chartControl1.DataSource = LoadDataTableFromXml("..\\..\\Data\\CityWeather.xml", "CityWeather");

    // Configure histogram options.
