Using ChartGlobalizationSettings Class to Set Different Languages for Chart Components

Possible Usage Scenarios

Aspose.Cells APIs have exposed the ChartGlobalizationSettings class in order to deal with scenarios where the user wishes to set chart components to a different language. It also supports custom labels for subtotals in a spreadsheet.

Introduction to ChartGlobalizationSettings Class

The ChartGlobalizationSettings class currently offers the following eight methods which can be overridden in a custom class to translate items such as Axis title name, Axis unit name, Chart title name, etc., into different languages.

1. GetAxisTitleName: Gets the name of the title for an axis.
2. GetAxisUnitName: Gets the name of the axis unit.
3. GetChartTitleName: Gets the name of the chart title.
4. GetLegendDecreaseName: Gets the name of “Decrease” for the legend.
5. GetLegendIncreaseName: Gets the name of “Increase” for the legend.
6. GetLegendTotalName: Gets the name of “Total” for the legend.
7. GetOtherName: Gets the name of the “Other” label for the chart.
8. GetSeriesName: Gets the name of a series in the chart.
