How to Change Axis Title Fonts and Legend Fonts.

Hello,

1. How can I change the Axis title fonts only, "without" affecting the tickmarks or number on the tickmarks?

2. How can I change the Legend fonts?

I would like to use binding to properties the user can set. (Including fontweight, fontstyle, fontfamily)

Thanks Oscar

Hello Oscar

1. The font of the axis title can be controlled by setting the FontWeight, FontStyle and FontFamily properties of the axis. Tickmarks will never be affected by these, but the labels will. To avoid the labels using these property values, you can Set the LabelTemplate property of the axis to be a template containing a TextBlock with hard coded font values. The Text would be binding to the FormattedLabel property.
2. Create a Style that targets the Legend type. You can include setters in this style to set the various font properties. This will affect the "Legend" title as well as the legend items. If you only want the font properties to be applied to the "Legend" title OR the items, you can add a Setter to set the Template property to customise the appearance of the legend. The Sample Explorer application provided with WPF Elements has a demo showing how to customise all the bits of a chart which includes code examples to get you started.

Please let me know if you need further help with this.
