Legend in Blazor Smith Chart component

28 Jul 2021 / 12 minutes to read

In the Smith Chart, a legend is a key containing symbols and descriptions. It can be interpreted in various colors, shapes, or other identifiers based on the data, and it provides valuable information for interpreting what the Smith Chart is displaying. In simple words, the legend is used to denote the series rendered in the Smith Chart.

Position

By default, the visibility of the legend is false. To enable the legend, kindly set the Visible property to true in the SmithChartLegendSettings. The default position for the legend is Bottom. By using the Position property, the position of the legend can be changed. The legend can be placed on the Smith Chart’s bottom, top, right, or left side.

Smith Chart with legend

Other than these positions, the legend can be placed anywhere in the Smith Chart. To achieve this, set the Position as Custom in the SmithChartLegendSettings and specify the X and Y coordinates using the X and Y properties in the SmithChartLegendLocation.

@using Syncfusion.Blazor.Charts

<SfSmithChart>

        <SmithChartSeries Name="Second Transmission" DataSource='SecondTransmissionData' Reactance="Reactance" Resistance="Resistance"></SmithChartSeries>
    </SmithChartSeriesCollection>
</SfSmithChart>

@code {
    public class SmithChartData
    {
        public double? Resistance { get; set; }
        public double? Reactance { get; set; }
    };
    public List<SmithChartData> FirstTransmissionData = new List<SmithChartData> {
        new SmithChartData { Resistance= 10, Reactance= 25 },

Legend Alignment

Other than positioning the legend in the Smith Chart, its alignment also can be customized. By default, the legend is aligned in the Center position. Using the Alignment property, the legend can be aligned in the Smith Chart’s near, centre, or far locations.

Legend Size

By default, the legend takes 20% - 25% of the Smith Chart’s height horizontally, when it is placed on the top or the bottom position and 20% - 25% of the width vertically, when it is placed on the left or the right position of the Chart. It can be changed by using the Width and the Height property of the legend settings. It can be in pixel or in percentage.
