Move/Rotate Left-Axis Caption above Axis

[Ed Dressel]

Move left-axis label to the top of the axis.

My graphic designer suggested that the left axis label be moved & rotated to the top of the axis, as seen in the images below. Is this possibe?

I should have mentioned--I did try using the top axis caption, but I cannot find how to remove the space between the bottom of the caption and the top of the chart.

Hello,

Have you tried with the main title? It seems to give the result you'd expect:

Code: Select all

  with Chart1 do
  begin
    Title.Text.Text := 'Monthly income';
    Title.Font.Color := Axes.Left.LabelsFont.Color;
    Title.Font.Size := 15;
    Title.Alignment := taLeftJustify;
  end;

I see a "mixed content" warning in the console. I guess your server isn't using SSL and non-SSL content (http://) can't be fetched from SSL connections (https://) due to security restrictions in modern browsers.

Thank you on both issues--I found another way to upload images (even quicker using a product named SnagIt. I didn't realize it had these features).

Hello,

I use ShareX for screen capturing, but I suppose it’s a matter of personal preference.
Also note this forum supports attaching images.
