Displaying Titles and Footnotes in a Histogram Control

Histogram controls use title and footnote objects to control their titles and footnotes. You can specify

up to four titles using the attributes title1, title2, title3, and title4.
up to two footnotes using attributes footnote1 and footnote2.

Each title and footnote object has the following attributes:

Attribute Description

color Color for the title or footnote text

font Font for the title or footnote text

text The text for the title or footnote

justification left, right, or center justification

Because the titles and footnotes are objects, they inherit additional attributes, which you will see in their Property sheets. However, the attributes listed in the table above are the only ones you need.

Attribute	Description
color	Color for the title or footnote text
font	Font for the title or footnote text
text	The text for the title or footnote
justification	left, right, or center justification

In build mode, when you set the title or footnote attributes in the Property sheet, an editor automatically opens so you can enter values for the title or footnote attributes.

To set titles or footnotes in SCL code, use the notation for complex attributes. For example, for a Histogram control named histogram1, the following code sets the text and text color for one title and one footnote:

histogram1.title1.text='My Title';
histogram1.title1.color='red';
histogram1.footnote1.text='My Footnote';
histogram1.footnote1.color='blue';
