chart-simple line x-axis

How is it possible to have the values on the chart x-axis to be shown vertically rather than horizantal?
Thanks

I dont find any option to do that. actually coming to real time when the number of values on x axis is more,the values will be shown vertically.

Is that acceptable? or you want your values all the time printed vertically

Thank you,

I just tested your comments.

You are right.

I think I will go with the default for now.

Many thanks

Charts, aligning plot area vertically

Say you have a few charts which you want to align vertically. Both left and
right side of the charts should be at same vertical position. This is
especially important if you have same measurement and scale for the x-axis
for two charts and want to compare values across two diagrams. I have not
found a way to get vertical aligment (yet).
The area for the plot area seems to be determined by the text size needed to
print the y-axis labels. And this is of course dependent on the actual data.
Apparently, the chart component is licensed from www.dundas.com. On that
site, I found a white paper suggesting you can do this using an
AlignWithChartArea property. However, I can't find such in RD. Am I correct
in assuming that this feature is missing from RD?
Any ideas on how to accomplish this?
TIA

toolbar in the Designer (Align Left/Align Right toolbuttons.)

the *Plot Area*.
The size of the plot area seem to be dynamically adjusted based on the text to fill in to the left/right of
the diagram (the part which is in the Chart Area but isn't the Plot Area). This text is drawn from the data,
so I cannot know in advance how long strings it will be.
(This is so I can match scales (vertical lines) across several diagrams.)
Thanks

Chart - X Axis

Can the labels on the x axis be rotated so that they display vertically. The
user wants a report that shows the month-year like May-2005, but with the
text rotated 90 degrees.The text orientation is determined automatically based on the horizontal
space available.
If you show many months along the X-axis, the labels will most likely not
fit horizontally (in one line or two lines) and will therefore get rotated.
