BarChart with differernt color

[rahul]

Question 1)
How can I make bars in a chart with different colors, by default it takes only first color from the Pallete Brushes and all the bars get created with the same color?? I don't want to go with Stacked Bar?/

Question 2)
How can I format the numbers in K . example 481000.23 should give 481.23 K

mapping1.SeriesDefinition.ItemLabelFormat =

 

"0, k";
The above format string gives 481 K but I wnat it as 481.23 K


These are very urgent issues!! Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,
Rahul Saxena

I got the solution for first question

mapping1.SeriesDefinition.LegendDisplayMode =

 

LegendDisplayMode.DataPointLabel; but reply for question 2 is still expecting.

 

Have one more question.
On X asis I have very big names(screen shot attched), datase column (FULL_NAME) which makes the charts unreadable,   I want to show only first 15 chars  only for display purpose, which I have stored in other column(FULL_NAME_TRIM).

How can I create the X axis with column FULL_NAME and only for display purpose I want to show FULL_NAME_TRIM.

Below  code give display as FULL_NAME, what change I shall do to draw the X Asix with column FULL_NAMEm but to display  FULL_NAME_TRIM

mapping1.ItemMappings.Add(

 

new ItemMapping("YAxis", DataPointMember.YValue));

 

mapping1.SeriesDefinition =

 

new BarSeriesDefinition();

 

mapping1.GroupingSettings.GroupDescriptors.Add(

 

new ChartGroupDescriptor("Group"));

 

mapping1.ItemMappings.Add(

 

new ItemMapping("FULL_NAME)", DataPointMember.XCategory));


Many Thanks.
Rahul

Hello Rahul,

To your question regarding the ItemLabelFormat. Here is how your format should look like:

seriesMapping.SeriesDefinition.ItemLabelFormat = "#Y{0,.00} k";

To your latest question:
Why don't you set the ItemMapping's FieldName to FULL_NAME_TRIM and the DataPointMember to XCategory like this:

mapping1.ItemMappings.Add( new ItemMapping("FULL_NAME_TRIM)", DataPointMember.XCategory));

I have current a series with Y axis (number) and x axis ( percent) 
Can you please provide a example on how to have one series with different colors for the axis in the XAML code? In other words, Percent less than zero one color and percent greater than 0 other color. 
I would really appreciate your help.

Hi Mayra,

Your scenario looks pretty much like our MVVM demo. You may also find our online documentation helpful for achieving it.
