The Angle property is used to change the tilt of the label. Specify the angle in degrees. The Angle property is set individually for each axis. The full path for this property is Area.Axis.Labels.Angle. By default, the value of the Angle property is set to 0. Therefore, the labels are placed as shown in the figure below.

The value of this property can be either negative or positive. If the property value is negative, the label will tilt clockwise. If the property value is positive, label it with a counterclockwise tilt. The following figure shows a sample chart with the Angle property on the Х axis set to 50.
