Hello,
We've prepared an example, which demonstrates how to work around this limitation using the PivotGridControl from the XtraPivotGrid suite. Probably, it will be helpful for you until XtraCharts natively supports this feature. For more information, see How to show the tabular data below the chart.
Best regards, Alan.

Thanks a lot - this technique feels like it will work for me. One point of clarification though - I will need to be able to show more than the data that defines the chart - for example in the screenshot I provided, I'm showing a %change for the values in the series. I might even want to show some other related piece of information that's not in the chart. I would probably use an XtraGrid with bands, and then show (for my example) 7 bands, each with a couple of columns, and size the bands to match the of 'columns' shown in the chart. Hope that makes sense.
Hopefully this will fit in with what you are planning for this in a future release?
Hello Nicholas,
Sure, you can use the XtraGrid control instead of a PivotGrid to display any data you need, below the grid. The above mentioned example only demonstrates a workaround, which implies placing another control above the chart and moving a chart's diagram up by changing its Bottom margin value. Of course, we agree that this approach isn't very elegant, and so we're planning to support this feature natively in XtraCharts in some of its future versions. However, unfortunately, I can't promise you any dates when it will be implemented, I can only say that it won't be available in v2009 vol 3, and as for v2010 vol 1 - our plans are not yet established. In any case, we hope that the provided example helps you.
Thank you for your feedback!
Best regards, Alan.
