Dynamic BarSeries

[Tracy]

I need to be able to specify a dynamic set of BarSeries for a RadCartesianChart through XAML which is bound to a property in my viewmodel.

I tried creating a property which is of type List<CartesianSeries> and binding to that but it is not working.

public List<CartesianSeries> BarSeriesList
{
    get
    {
        List<CartesianSeries> barSeriesList = new List<CartesianSeries>();

        foreach (ChartDataPointModel dataPoint in DataPoints)
        {
            BarSeries barSeries = new BarSeries();
            barSeries.DataPoints.Add(new CategoricalDataPoint() { Value = dataPoint.Value, Label = dataPoint.Name, Category = dataPoint.Name });
            barSeriesList.Add(barSeries);
        }

        return barSeriesList;
    }
    set
    {
        // do nothing
    }
}

The XAML I tried to use to bind to it is:

<chart:RadCartesianChart Palette="{Binding Palette}" Height="300" Width="500">

     <chart:RadCartesianChart.Series>
         <chartView:BarSeries ValueBinding="Value" CategoryBinding="Name" ItemsSource="{Binding BarSeriesList}" />
     </chart:RadCartesianChart.Series>

     <chart:RadCartesianChart.HorizontalAxis>
         <chartView:CategoricalAxis/>
     </chart:RadCartesianChart.HorizontalAxis>

     <chart:RadCartesianChart.VerticalAxis>
         <chartView:LinearAxis LabelFormat="0" />
     </chart:RadCartesianChart.VerticalAxis>

     <chart:RadCartesianChart.Grid>
         <chartView:CartesianChartGrid MajorLinesVisibility="Y" />
     </chart:RadCartesianChart.Grid>

 </chart:RadCartesianChart>

How is the BarSeries supposed to be bound to make it dynamic?

Thanks,

Not an issue anymore - I am using a different approach to displaying the data.
