@using Syncfusion.EJ2.Inputs

@Html.EJS().Rating("rating").Value(3).ShowLabel(true).Render()
public ActionResult ShowLabel()

    return View();
}

Label position

The Rating control allows you to place the label on the top, bottom, left, or right side of the rating using the LabelPosition property.

The following label positions are supported:

  • Top: The label is placed on the top of the rating.
  • Bottom: The label is placed on the bottom of the rating.
  • Left: The label is placed on the left side of the rating.
  • Right: The label is placed on the right side of the rating.
@using Syncfusion.EJ2.Inputs

<label>Left Label Position</label><br />
@Html.EJS().Rating("rating1").Value(3).ShowLabel(true).LabelPosition(LabelPosition.Left).Render()<br />

<label>Right Label Position</label><br />
@Html.EJS().Rating("rating2").Value(3).ShowLabel(true).LabelPosition(LabelPosition.Right).Render()<br />

<label>Top Label Position </label><br />
@Html.EJS().Rating("rating3").Value(3).ShowLabel(true).LabelPosition(LabelPosition.Top).Render()<br />

<label>Bottom Label Position</label><br />
@Html.EJS().Rating("rating4").Value(3).ShowLabel(true).LabelPosition(LabelPosition.Bottom).Render()<br />
public ActionResult LabelPosition()
{
    return View();
}

Label template

You can use the LabelTemplate tag directive to specify a custom template for the Label of the rating. The current value of the rating will be passed as the value property in the template context when building the content of the label. This allows you to include dynamic information about the rating in the template.

@using Syncfusion.EJ2.Inputs

@Html.EJS().Rating("rating").Value(3).ShowLabel(true).LabelTemplate("<span>${value} Out Of 5</span>").Render()
public ActionResult LabelTemplate()
{
    return View();
}
