How to add right border of grid in Chart contol

enter image description here

Here is my code for setting properties of chart which is attached above:

chart2.ChartAreas[0].CursorX.IsUserEnabled = true;
chart2.ChartAreas[0].CursorX.IsUserSelectionEnabled = true;
chart2.ChartAreas[0].AxisX.ScaleView.Zoomable = true;
chart2.ChartAreas[0].AxisX.Title = "t";
chart2.ChartAreas[0].AxisY.Title = "w(t)";
chart2.ChartAreas[0].AxisX.Minimum = classes[0].First();
chart2.ChartAreas[0].AxisX.Maximum = classes[m - 1].Last();
chart2.ChartAreas[0].AxisX.Interval = delta_t;
chart2.ChartAreas[0].AxisX.LabelStyle.Format = "{0:0.####}";

I need to add right border of grid so that it will be as it is shown below:

Solution

  • The right border is missing since your data don't nicely fit into the area.

    There are many ways to fix this.

    Here is the simplest one:

    chart2.ChartAreas[0].AxisY2.Enabled = AxisEnabled.True;
chart2.ChartAreas[0].AxisY2.LabelStyle.Enabled = false;

    This adds a secondary Y-Axis and turns off its labels.

    You can style it as needed: 

    chart2.ChartAreas[0].AxisY2.MajorTickMark.Enabled = false;
chart2.ChartAreas[0].AxisY2.LineWidth = 3;

    You could also draw a line or add an annotation but this is by far the easiest solution.
