    MarginMode Property
    In This Topic
    Defines the strategy used to fit the chart into the chart area (margins).
    Syntax
    'Declaration
 
<CategoryAttribute("Margins")>
<DescriptionAttribute("Defines the strategy used to fit the chart into the chart area.")>
<DefaultValueAttribute(Mono.Cecil.CustomAttributeArgument)>
Public Property MarginMode As MarginMode
    'Usage
 
Dim instance As Chart
Dim value As MarginMode
 
instance.MarginMode = value
 
value = instance.MarginMode
    [Category("Margins")]
[Description("Defines the strategy used to fit the chart into the chart area.")]
[DefaultValue(Mono.Cecil.CustomAttributeArgument)]
public MarginMode MarginMode {get; set;}
    Remarks
    The possible values for this property are MarginMode.None, MarginMode.Stretch MarginMode.Fit.
    • None - the chart will not try to align to the chart area.
    • Fit - the chart will stretch along X and Y in order to fill as much as possible of the chart area preserving the chart proportions. Typically you'll use Fit mode for 3D charts.
    • Stretch - the chart will stretch along X and Y in order to fill as much as possible of the chart area without breaking outside. This margin mode does not preserve the chart proportions. Typically you'll use Stretch mode for 2D charts.
    Example
    The following code modifies the chart fit mode and chart margins: 
    Dim chart As Chart = CType(nChartControl1.Charts.GetAt(0), Chart)
chart.MarginMode = MarginMode.Stretch
chart.Margins = New RectangleF(10, 10, 80, 80)
chart.View.SetPredefinedProjection(PredefinedProjection.Orthogonal)
    Chart chart = (Chart)nChartControl1.Charts.GetAt(0);
chart.MarginMode = MarginMode.Stretch;
chart.Margins = new RectangleF(10, 10, 80, 80);
chart.View.SetPredefinedProjection(PredefinedProjection.Orthogonal);
