How to force series color ?

[scott]

Got a chart and elsewhere user gets to pick a color.  How can I force a particular series to render in the user specified color?

Thanks -
Scott

Hello Scott,

You can set the BackColor of the series to change their color, for example in BarSeries. For LineSeries, you should use the BorderColor property.

I hope this helps.

and in the Pie Series?

Hello Cristiano,

Here is how you can do that: 

radChartView1.Series[0].Children[0].BackColor = Color.Red;
radChartView1.Series[0].Children[1].BackColor = Color.Green;
radChartView1.Series[0].Children[2].BackColor = Color.Blue;

Alternatively, you can create a custom palette, as described here: http://www.telerik.com/help/winforms/chartview-customization-palettes.html.

I hope that you find this information useful.

Kind regards,

Hi,

Thank you for writing.

The approach my colleague suggested in the previous post is also valid for the DonutSeries. Please note that this thread is discussing Telerik UI for WinForms. In case you are using a different product please ask your question in the relevant forums.

Please let me know if you have other questions.
