There unfortunately is no easy way for us to change the behavior without upsetting a lot of users. Many developers want to hide the axis, but show the data that is bound to that hidden axis. If we hide the vertical space for that axis, data is not shown.

Hi!

You can achieve that best by placing SeriesEventMarker on each data point location. You can give individual color and shape for every marker, and you can have thousands of them in the chart. To hide the label of the marker, set marker.Label.Visible = False.
