Chart Controls: Stacked Column Series Label Positioning - c#

I am creating a stacked column graph but am currently limited by the lack of label positioning for each series. There are not any custom properties which relate to alignment of label positioning, is there some other way to offset labels or align them for stacked charts?

By creating a dummy series and manually setting each label value you can reposition a stacked columns labels to either the top or bottom of the stack. It is limited, and certainly not what I would like, but it is the best I have found so far.
While the control used is different the best example of the concept I have found is here:
total value of each column in a stacked column
Check out my blog post for more details and a better method of handling this:

SciChart dynamic annotations

In the SciChart tutorials there are only instructions how to add a LabelProvider with hardcoded Label texts, that can be switched on different values (https://www.scichart.com/example/wpf-chart-example-stacked-column-side-by-side/). Is there any way to programmaticaly add and handle axis labels?
UPD: Idea is to mark columns with different labels, so that every column has a text label instead of numeric value on the main axis.
Solution is pretty obvious. To dynamically handle labels from ViewModel, you can bind a LabelProvider itself.

Infragistics data chart C# WPF highlight part of a series

I have a listview box which contains my data, it is loaded when selected into a infragistics data chart, it is all loaded into a single stacked bar series. What I now need to be able to do is click one segment of the bar series and be able to highlight and zoom in.
Does anyone have any advice?
Thanks in advance.
I suppose you are using Bar/ColumnSeries to display single stacked bars.
To highlight you can make use of ChartAnnotationLayers to highlight a particular value & hence the bar by setting the MarkerTemplate property.
Also you can set a default value or override it on hover.
The documentation here can help.

Alignment of text when column width is changed from GUI in winform application

I have developed a winform application. It has a listview with multiple columns having different texts. Initially, I have set the column width = -2 to take the size of longest text in the column.
The issue is that sometime text overshoots the laptop screen and a horizontal scroll bar appeared in the list view.
To fit all the columns in a screen, I manually modified the columns widths using column boundaries in the GUI. When I modify the column width, the column text starts disappearing from right. I want it to disappeared from left.
I have searched goggle a lot but did not find the answer.
Question might look weird or may be I have not explained it properly. Please let me know if more information is needed.
Thanks in advance.
The Listbox columns in Windows Forms are not exactly a high level control, I've used it some times but just for simple lists, It certainly has not a builtin function to make what you want, to obtain it you probably need to subclass the control, create a new class for the item managed in the list and write some code to perform what you need.
I think you can find some hints on how to achieve all this in Charles Petzold book about windows forms where he shows how to measure a string and how to draw directly on your control.

ASP.NET (C#) Column Chart on top of Column Chart

I am drawing 2 RangeColumn Graphs, problem is they appear next to each other. I am wondering if there is a setting that will allow me to draw the graphs on top of each other. So graph 2 will be visible over graph 1. Both graphs have different widths so I should still be able to see graph 1 in the back.
Here is a google image I found that describes what I want

You need to set the DrawSideBySide property to false. You can then play with the widths to get your desired effect.

Remove the second row in x-axe of Chart

I use WPF toolkit Chart control. How to remove the second row in x-axe of Chart?
It's not a second row, it's juste "space management" of labels. You must set another datetime format in order to let enough space for the rendering.
I working with Telerik RadChart and there you can rotate the labels, so if you use let's say an angle of 45, they will line up nicely without and overlap. Maybe it's possible to in your language? Try look for it, I would not be surprised if you could do the same.
