When we have a very string in a series point/title to be shown in the legend, the legend isn't shown: Bar bar1 = new Bar(tChart1.getChart()); bar1.fillSampleValues(); for (int i=0; i<bar1.getCount(); i++) { if (i==2) //bar1.getLabels().setString(i, "This is a really really looooooooong string for the point index " + i); //bar1.getLabels().setString(i, "This is a really really looooooooong string for the point index " + i + ". This is so long because we want to test long strings in the legend"); bar1.getLabels().setString(i, "This is a really really looooooooong string for the point index " + i + ". This is so long because we want to test how the chart looks when there are long strings in the legend"); else bar1.getLabels().setString(i, "Point Index " + i); } tChart1.getLegend().setAlignment(LegendAlignment.BOTTOM); The LegendScrollBar isn't yet in Java: http://bugs.teechart.net/show_bug.cgi?id=1142 However, this tool doesn't fix it for VCL. We could add a MaxWidth property. If the legend can't be drawn within this MaxWidth, the strings could be cut (with "..." at the end), we could automatically add a LegendScrollBar (when implemented), or we could multiline the legend.
