Displaying chart legend as tooltip

[SteveL]

Is it possible to have the legend for a chart appear as a tooltip for the chart, rather than being always displayed?

Hello Steve,

You can achieve the desired effect like this:

XAML

<telerik:RadChart x:Name="RadChart1">
    <telerik:RadChart.ToolTip>
        <ToolTip Background="Black">
            <ToolTip.Content>
                <chart:ChartLegend x:Name="TooltipLegend" Background="Black" Height="300" Width="200" />
            </ToolTip.Content>
        </ToolTip>
    </telerik:RadChart.ToolTip>
</telerik:RadChart>

C#

this.RadChart1.DefaultView.ChartLegend.Visibility = System.Windows.Visibility.Collapsed;
this.RadChart1.DefaultView.ChartArea.Legend = this.FindName("TooltipLegend") as ChartLegend;
this.RadChart1.ItemsSource = new[] {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6};
