Hi,

I don't need the decimal point and the decimal values to appear in the data labels.

Is there a way to format the data labels appearing on top of the column chart?

If so, where exactly should the property be handled?

Also, I need to truncate the labels appearing at the bottom of chart. They should also be aligned at 45 degrees to the bars.

I need help on both these issues.

For formatting, set the format string on the ChartText item that you've added to the chart:
UltraChart1.ColumnChart.ChartText[0].ItemFormatString = "<DATA_VALUE:0>";

For orientation:
UltraChart1.Axis.X.Labels.Orientation = TextOrientation.Custom;
UlltraChart1.Axis.X.Labels.OrientationAngle = 45;

For ellipsis you can set
UltraChart1.Axis.X.Labels.Layout.Behavior = AxisLabelLayoutBehaviors.Auto;
or you can add a ClipTextBehavior to the Layout.BehaviorCollection and set Behavior to UseCollection.
