Title

To configure the Chart title, use the title option.

By default, the Chart displays no title.

The following example demonstrates how to configure the title font and alignment.

<div id="chart"></div>
  <script>
  $("#chart").kendoChart({
    title: {
      text: "Chart Title",
      font: "21px sans-serif",
      align: "left"
    },
    series: [{
      name: "Fibonacci",
      type: "column",
      data: [1, 2, 3, 5]
    }, {
      name: "Squares",
      type: "column",
      data: [0, 1, 4, 9],
      visibleInLegend: false
    }]
  });
  </script>

Title Position

To control the position of the title, use the position options of the title property.

The following example demonstrates how to display the title at the bottom of the Chart:

<div id="chart"></div>
  <script>
  $("#chart").kendoChart({
    title: {
      text: "Chart Title",
      font: "21px sans-serif",
      align: "left",
      position: "bottom"
    },
    series: [{
      name: "Fibonacci",
      type: "column",
      data: [1, 2, 3, 5]
    }, {
      name: "Squares",
      type: "column",
      data: [0, 1, 4, 9],
      visibleInLegend: false
    }]
  });
  </script>

Subtitle

The Kendo UI Chart supports configuring an additional subtitle via the subtitle option.

By default, the subtitle is displayed below the main title.

The following example demonstrates how to configure a subtitle:

<div id="chart"></div>
<script>
$("#chart").kendoChart({
  title: {
    text: "Main Title"
  },
  subtitle: {
    text: "Subtitle"
  },
  series: [{
    type: "column",
    errorLowField: "low",
    errorHighField: "high",
    data: [{value: 4.743, low: 4.5, high: 5}, {value: 7.295, low: 7, high: 8},
      {value: 6.376, low: 5, high: 6.5}]
  }]
});
</script>
