27 Apr 20246 minutes to read

By using annotation, you can place any html elements to chart in a desired view.

To create footer and watermark for chart, follow the given steps:

Step 1:

Initialize the custom elements by using the annotation property.

By using the content option of the annotation object, you can specify the id of the element that needs
to be displayed in the chart.

Use the content option of the annotation object to create watermark text for chart. The specified content syncfusion needs to be displayed in chart in the specified coordinate unit.

    #  watermark for chart
       <e-annotations>
            <e-annotation  content='<div id="chart_cloud" style="font-size:450%; opacity: 0.3;" >syncfusion</div>'
            x='Wed' y= 20 coordinateUnits= 'Point' horizontalAlignment='Center'>
            </e-annotation>
        </e-annotations>

Use the x and y option of the annotation object to create footer for chart.

<e-annotations>
   #  footer for chart
        <e-annotation  content='<div id="chart" > <a href="https://www.syncfusion.com" target="_blank">www.syncfusion.com</a></div>'
            x=400 y=440 coordinateUnits='Pixel' horizontalAlignment='Center'>
            </e-annotation>
        </e-annotations>
