    Chart Class
    In This Topic

    Xceed's WPF chart control is designed to display rich, flexible, configurable, extendable charts. The control is 100% lookless and is able to display multiple areas with multiple charts at the same time. It supports area, column (bar), line, and pie charts, and also provides the ability to create custom charts.

    Syntax
    'Declaration
 
<StyleTypedPropertyAttribute(Property="FocusVisualStyle", StyleTargetType=System.Windows.Controls.Control)>
<XmlLangPropertyAttribute("Language")>
<UsableDuringInitializationAttribute(True)>
<RuntimeNamePropertyAttribute("Name")>
<UidPropertyAttribute("Uid")>
<TypeDescriptionProviderAttribute(MS.Internal.ComponentModel.DependencyObjectProvider)>
<NameScopePropertyAttribute("NameScope", System.Windows.NameScope)>
Public Class Chart 
   Inherits System.Windows.Controls.Control
    'Usage
 
Dim instance As Chart
    [StyleTypedProperty(Property="FocusVisualStyle", StyleTargetType=System.Windows.Controls.Control)]
[XmlLangProperty("Language")]
[UsableDuringInitialization(true)]
[RuntimeNameProperty("Name")]
[UidProperty("Uid")]
[TypeDescriptionProvider(MS.Internal.ComponentModel.DependencyObjectProvider)]
[NameScopeProperty("NameScope", System.Windows.NameScope)]
public class Chart : System.Windows.Controls.Control
    Remarks

    Use the Areas property to add Area objects.

    The chart control provides a built-in legend. Howewer, if a custom legend is needed, use the Legend property.

    Example
    The following demonstrates how to set up a simple line chart. By simply changing the type assigned to Series.Layout (e.g., using instead AreaLayout, ColumnLayout, or PieLayout), different chart types are displayed, namely, area, column/bar, or pie, respectively.
    <xctk:Chart>
  <xctk:Chart.Areas>
    <xctk:Area x:Name="_area1" Title="Area #1">
      <xctk:Area.Series>
        <xctk:Series x:Name="_series">
          <xctk:Series.Layout>
            <xctk:LineLayout />
          </xctk:Series.Layout>
          <xctk:Series.DataPoints>
            <xctk:DataPoint X="1" Y="1" Label="Oct" />
            <xctk:DataPoint X="2" Y="2" Label="Jan"/>
            <xctk:DataPoint X="2.5" Y="1.5" Label="Feb" />
            <xctk:DataPoint X="4" Y="1" Label="Jun"/>
            <xctk:DataPoint X="1.5" Y="3" Label="Dec"/>
            <xctk:DataPoint X="5" Y="5" Label="Apr"/>
            <xctk:DataPoint X="3" Y="1" Label="Nov"/>
            <xctk:DataPoint X="4.5" Y="7" Label="Jul"/>
            <xctk:DataPoint X="3.5" Y="4.5" Label="Aug"/>
