DataPoints

[Jeremy]

Hi there

How can i change the data point colours?

i have tried

            LineSeries3.BorderColor = Color.Green;
            LineSeries3.BorderColor2 = Color.Green;
            LineSeries3.BorderColor3 = Color.Green;
            LineSeries3.BorderColor4 = Color.Green;
            LineSeries3.ForeColor = Color.Green;

but it changes the line but not the point colour/series colour

i have attached a image showing what i done.

Hello Jeremy,

Thank you for writing. 

In order to change the data points color, you can set the LineSeries.BackColor property:
 

LineSeries lineSeries = new LineSeries();
lineSeries.DataPoints.Add(new CategoricalDataPoint(20, "Jan"));
lineSeries.DataPoints.Add(new CategoricalDataPoint(22, "Apr"));
lineSeries.DataPoints.Add(new CategoricalDataPoint(12, "Jul"));
lineSeries.DataPoints.Add(new CategoricalDataPoint(19, "Oct"));
this.radChartView1.Series.Add(lineSeries);
lineSeries.PointSize = new SizeF(10, 10);
lineSeries.BorderColor = Color.Red;
lineSeries.BackColor = Color.Aqua;

I hope this information helps. Should you have further questions I would be glad to help.

Hello Jeremy,

Thank you for writing back. 

In order to customize the labels, feel free to use the RadChartView.LabelFormatting event:

private void radChartView1_LabelFormatting(object sender, ChartViewLabelFormattingEventArgs e)
{
    e.LabelElement.ForeColor = Color.Lime;
    e.LabelElement.BackColor = Color.White;
    e.LabelElement.BorderColor = Color.Black;
}

I hope this information helps. If you have any additional questions, please let me know.
