What about custom legend tool. Have you checked this one out?

Not yet, will look into it.

What about using GDI+ canvas which provides font antialiasing?

That works, but found two bugs(?):

1. The first point of a donut chart disappears if 3D is not enabled

and

2. The text in the marks labels is not centered vertically.

You can either use OnGetLegendText event to hide some legend elements

Thanks, that works, sort of. But it isn't possible to remove the "gaps"?

Is it possible to hide certain series points in the legend (eg. null points)?

How to display the legend text using ClearType?

I have encountered a problem switching themes at run-time. It can be illustrated with the demo program: 1. Select the "Chart Themes" group. 2. First, select the "BlackIsBlack" theme. 3. Select the "Facts" theme. Now, the legend text/marks label text is not visible. 4. Select the "BlackIsBlack" theme...

See attachment: MaxPointsPerPage is set to 5. Yet part of the 6th point is shown.

How do I prevent this from happening?
