Hi Aravind,

You can sort series as we already told you here.

However, this doesn't seem to correspond to the project you sent. Could you please check the project you sent and let us know what are you looking for exactly?

Thanks in advance.

i dnt need sorting on the series , i need to sort on the horizontal axis

for example if my horizontal axis is shown with 3 labels a, b & c

i want to change to c,b,a or c,a, b or a,c, b .. ( i am not sorting on series , )
in the sample project

chart 1 : shows a, b
in chart 2 shows b,a

Hi daryl,

In that case, the only solution I can think of is using custom labels as shown in the example at All Features\Welcome!\Axes\Labels\Custom labels in the features demo.

in the sample project

chart 1 : shows a, b
in chart 2 shows b,a

I can't see that in the last example you sent.

Hi daryl,

Thanks for the example.

As I told you before, if you want to sort bottom axis labels but NOT sort series x values you should use custom labels.

Another option is using OnGetAxisLabel event. You can find an example here.
