How to put labels at the bottom of the chart

Question

I'm developing a logarithmic graph as shown below:

The labels of each point are located right next to the point, and this is what I do not want, because what I am looking for is that the labels are located at the bottom of the graph, just in the direction on the x axis that corresponds to it.

Its encoding with hard code is as follows:

Series series = Chart1.Series["Series1"];
Series seriesPuntos = new Series();
seriesPuntos.Points.AddXY(76.20, 100.0);
seriesPuntos.Points.AddXY(63.50, 100.0);
seriesPuntos.Points.AddXY(50.80, 100.0);
seriesPuntos.Points.AddXY(38.10, 100.0);
seriesPuntos.Points.AddXY(25.40, 98.6);
seriesPuntos.Points.AddXY(19.05, 90.0);
seriesPuntos.Points.AddXY(12.70, 83.0);
seriesPuntos.Points.AddXY(9.53, 75.9);
seriesPuntos.Points.AddXY(4.75, 59.8);
seriesPuntos.Points.AddXY(2.36, 46.8);
seriesPuntos.Points.AddXY(1.18, 39.3);
seriesPuntos.Points.AddXY(0.85, 36.8);
seriesPuntos.Points.AddXY(0.60, 30.7);
seriesPuntos.Points.AddXY(0.42, 27.1);
seriesPuntos.Points.AddXY(0.30, 25.7);
seriesPuntos.Points.AddXY(0.25, 24.0);
seriesPuntos.Points.AddXY(0.18, 21.9);
seriesPuntos.Points.AddXY(0.15, 20.6);
seriesPuntos.Points.AddXY(0.10, 19.7);
seriesPuntos.Points.AddXY(0.074, 18.3);
Chart1.Series.Add(seriesPuntos);

Chart1.ChartAreas[0].AxisX.Title = "ABERTURA (mm)";

Chart1.Series[0].IsValueShownAsLabel = true;

What I'm looking for is that the labels of each point are located at the bottom of the graph as shown below:

Your example don't seem to work, at least in my machine (and I found some indications online as well). You can't use AxisX.IsLogarithmic with Series.IsXValueIndexed.
I don't know why your code has two series with the same values. If you want to use a line and highlight the points you should use the MarkerXXX properties:

series.ChartType = SeriesChartType.Line;
series.MarkerColor = Color.Red;
series.MarkerStyle = MarkerStyle.Circle;
series.MarkerSize = 4;

I don't think there is any way of doing what you want "off the shelf". You have to use AxisX.CustomLabels. Something like:

var series = Chart1.Series["Series1"];
series.Points.AddXY(76.20, 100.0);
series.Points.AddXY(63.50, 100.0);
series.Points.AddXY(50.80, 100.0);
series.Points.AddXY(38.10, 100.0);
series.Points.AddXY(25.40, 98.6);
series.Points.AddXY(19.05, 90.0);
series.Points.AddXY(12.70, 83.0);
series.Points.AddXY(9.53, 75.9);
series.Points.AddXY(4.75, 59.8);
series.Points.AddXY(2.36, 46.8);
series.Points.AddXY(1.18, 39.3);
series.Points.AddXY(0.85, 36.8);
series.Points.AddXY(0.60, 30.7);
series.Points.AddXY(0.42, 27.1);
series.Points.AddXY(0.30, 25.7);
series.Points.AddXY(0.25, 24.0);
series.Points.AddXY(0.18, 21.9);
series.Points.AddXY(0.15, 20.6);
series.Points.AddXY(0.10, 19.7);
series.Points.AddXY(0.074, 18.3);

series.XValueType = ChartValueType.Double;
series.YValueType = ChartValueType.Double;
series.ChartType = SeriesChartType.Line;
series.Color = Color.DarkRed;
series.BorderWidth = 1;
series.BorderDashStyle = ChartDashStyle.Dash;
series.MarkerColor = Color.Red;
series.MarkerStyle = MarkerStyle.Circle;
series.MarkerSize = 4;

var chartArea = Chart1.ChartAreas[0];
chartArea.BorderWidth = 1;
chartArea.BorderDashStyle = ChartDashStyle.Solid;

chartArea.AxisY.Interval = 2;
chartArea.AxisY.Minimum = 0;
chartArea.AxisY.Maximum = 100;
chartArea.AxisY.Title = "% QUE PASA EN PESO";
chartArea.AxisY.TitleFont = new Font("Roboto", 11, FontStyle.Bold);

chartArea.AxisX.LabelStyle.Angle = -90;
chartArea.AxisX.Title = "ABERTURA (mm)";
chartArea.AxisX.TitleFont = new Font("Roboto", 11, FontStyle.Bold);

chartArea.AxisX.IsLogarithmic = true;
chartArea.AxisX.MinorGrid.Interval = 1;
chartArea.AxisX.MinorGrid.Enabled = true;

//Axis is in log, so the CustomLabels fromPosition and toPosition should be as well - This gave me a small headache
var logBase = Chart1.ChartAreas[0].AxisX.LogarithmBase;
//Define the interval to show the text
var customLabelInterval = Math.Log(0.01, logBase);
foreach (var seriesPoint in series.Points)
{
    chartArea.AxisX.CustomLabels.Add(Math.Log(seriesPoint.XValue, logBase) - customLabelInterval, Math.Log(seriesPoint.XValue, logBase) + customLabelInterval, seriesPoint.XValue.ToString(CultureInfo.CurrentCulture));
}

Resulting in

Hi, thanks for your answer, the lines in logarithmic scales are great, I didn't know it could be done that way, I used **Chart1.ChartAreas [0] .AxisX.MinorGrid.Enabled = true; Chart1.ChartAreas [0] .AxisX.MinorGrid.Interval = 1;** on the other hand you are right I made two lists unnecessarily, one for the lines and one for the points. I also had the idea to put two lists with the Y axis at zero but I did not know how to put the labels, so your answer is just what I was looking for. — Jorge Luis Alcantara, Nov 27 '20 at 16:16
