ChartLabels

ChartLabels
is an option for charting functions that specifies what labels should be used for chart elements.

DetailsDetails

  • ChartLabels->{lbl1, lbl2, ...} uses as a label for the i^(th) element in each dataset.
  • The can be any strings, graphics, or other static or dynamic expressions.
  • None indicates no label. If there are more elements in a dataset than specified, the subsequent are taken to be None.
  • If explicit labeling is specified in a dataset using Labeled, it is added to labeling specified through ChartLabels.
  • Positioning and other effects in labels can be specified using Placed.
  • ChartLabels->Placed[{lbl1, lbl2, ...}, pos] places all the at the position specified by pos.
  • ChartLabels->{spec1, spec2, ...} uses the successive to specify labels for successive dimensions in nested lists of datasets.
