asp.net - How to change a chart legend text color


Change a Chart legend’s text color



The Chart class serves as the root class of the Chart control. The Chart class exposes all of the properties, methods, and events of the Chart Web server control.
The Chart Series collection property stores Series objects which are used to store data that is to be displayed, along with attributes of that data. The Chart ChartAreas collection property stores ChartArea objects, which are primarily used to draw one or more charts using one set of axes.




The following asp.net c# web development tutorial code demonstrates how we can change a Chart legend’s text color. Here we will use the Chart class Legends property to get the legend collection. Then we will get the specified legend instance by its id. And then we will change the legend text color by changing its ForeColor property value.




The Chart Legends property gets or sets a LegendCollection object that is used to store all Legend objects used by the Chart control. This property value is a LegendCollection that is used to store all Legend objects. This Chart collection property stores all Legend objects used by the Chart control.




The Legend class represents the legend for the chart image. The Legend class encapsulates all the functionality of the Chart control's legend and is exposed using the Legends collection property of the root Chart object. In a Chart object can be any number of legends for a chart image.




The Legend class ForeColor property gets or sets the color of the legend text. This property value is a Color value that represents the color of the legend text. The ForeColor property is used to set the Chart legend text color.

Restricting Jetpack Compose TextField to Numeric Input Only

Jetpack Compose has revolutionized Android development with its declarative approach, enabling developers to build modern, responsive UIs more efficiently. Among the many components provided by Compose, TextField is a critical building block for user input. However, ensuring that a TextField accepts only numeric input can pose challenges, especially when considering edge cases like empty fields, invalid characters, or localization nuances. In this blog post, we'll explore how to restrict a Jetpack Compose TextField to numeric input only, discussing both basic and advanced implementations. Why Restricting Input Matters Restricting user input to numeric values is a common requirement in apps dealing with forms, payment entries, age verifications, or any data where only numbers are valid. Properly validating input at the UI level enhances user experience, reduces backend validation overhead, and minimizes errors during data processing. Compose provides the flexibility to implement ...

jetpack compose - TextField remove underline

jetpack compose - Image clickable

Compose Image Clickable The Image widget allows android developers to display an image object to the app user interface using the jetpack compose library. Android app developers can show image objects to the Image widget from various sources such as painter resources, vector resources, bitmap, etc. Image is a very essential component of the jetpack compose library. Android app developers can change many properties of an Image widget by its modifiers such as size, shape, etc. We also can specify the Image object scaling algorithm, content description, etc. But how can we set a click event to an Image widget in a jetpack compose application? There is no built-in property/parameter/argument to set up an onClick event directly to the Image widget. This android application development tutorial will demonstrate to us how we can add a click event to the Image widget and make it clickable. Click event of a widget allow app users to execute a task such as showing a toast message by cli...
