Appearance is being ignored

[shovavnik]

I'm using the RadChart from 2008 Q2 SP1.

Nothing I do to change the appearance in code causes the style information to change. I've tried with and without DataBind(), and I've tried changing the style informaiton in the designer as well as writing the code explicitly. It always reverts to the basic empty skin.

Here's an example:

	var series = chart.Series[0];
	var appearance = series.Appearance;
	appearance.PointMark.Dimensions.AutoSize = false;
	appearance.PointMark.Dimensions.Width = 2;
	appearance.PointMark.Dimensions.Height = 2;
	appearance.PointDimentions.AutoSize = false;
	appearance.PointDimentions.SetDimensions(2, 2);
	appearance.LabelAppearance.Visible = false;
	appearance.TextAppearance.Visible = false;

Note that I'm using a Point chart.

Any ideas what I could be missing?

Hello Noam,

By default there is a single ChartSeries in the Series collection, but it is being removed on data bind. New series are created instead. Please, try changing the appearance properties after calling DataBind().
