hi all,
I have created a dynamic box plot chart and it was positioned at the center of the page. I would like to shift the chart 5px to the left.

This is the output of my chart currently:

I want to shift the chart slightly to the left, like 5px to the left. Does anyone has any suggestion on how this can be achieved?

I have tried Chart1.Style["right"] = 5.ToString() + "px"; but the chart still stay at the same position.

This is my codes to create the chart:

C#

Chart Chart1 = new Chart();
                                Chart1 .DataSource = dt;

                                System.Web.UI.HtmlControls.HtmlGenericControl Chart1_DIV = new System.Web.UI.HtmlControls.HtmlGenericControl("DIV");
                                Chart1_DIV.ID = "LVL1RISKCHART_DIV";
                                Chart1_DIV.Style.Add(HtmlTextWriterStyle.TextAlign, "center");
                                Chart1_DIV.Style.Add(HtmlTextWriterStyle.Width, "100%");

                                Chart1.Series.Add(new Series());
                                Chart1.Series[0].ChartType = SeriesChartType.BoxPlot;

                                List<object> List1 = dt.AsEnumerable().ToList<object>();
                                foreach (DataRow row in dt.Rows)
                                {
                                    Chart1.Series[0].Points.AddXY(row["DESC"], new object[] { row["MIN"], row["MAX"], row["25TH_PERCENTILE"], row["75TH_PERCENTILE"], row["50TH_PERCENTILE"], row["AVG"] });
                                                                    
                                //create chartareas
                                ChartArea ca = new ChartArea();
                                ca.AxisX = new Axis();
                                ca.AxisY = new Axis();
                                Chart1.ChartAreas.Add(ca);

                                //databind
                                Chart1.DataBind();
                                Chart1.Visible = true;

Any help is greatly appreciated, thanks.

The right property[^] only works if the element has absolute or relative positioning. For statically positioned elements, it has no effect.

It also specifies how far the styled element's right-hand edge should be from the parent element's right-hand edge. That doesn't sound like what you're trying to achieve.

Try using a 2D transform[^]:

C#

Chart1.Style["transform"] = "translateX(-5px)";

// If you need IE9 support:
Chart1.Style["-ms-transform"] = "translateX(-5px)";
