    Scale Label Angle
    In This Topic

    The angle of all scale labels is controllable. This includes the axis title and all automatically generated labels. There are five modes in which you can specify the label angle:

    Label Angle Mode Description
    Auto The label angle is determined automatically depending on the axis type and orientation. This is the default mode.
    View The label angle is specified in degrees and will remain constant regardless of the axis position or orientation.
    Scale The label angle is specified in degrees and will change depending on the axis position and orientation.
    ViewNoFlip The label angle is specified in degrees and will remain constant regardless of the axis position or orientation. The label is not allowed to flip.
    ScaleNoFlip The label angle is specified in degrees and will change depending on the axis position and orientation. The label is not allowed to flip.

    The following pictures of a polar chart illustrate how these modes work in practice:

    Polar chart with angular labels operating in View label angle mode, angle 0
    Polar chart with angular labels operating in Scale label angle mode, angle 0
    Polar chart with angular labels operating in Scale No Flip label angle mode, angle 0

    The scale label angle can be affected by settings related to automatic label overlap resolve. For more information check out the Advanced Axis Settings topic.
