Setting PointMark's color to auto-generated line color.

[Sean]

Hi,

I generate a line graph. I do not define the series' color. When the series appears it has a color (presumably just assigned a default/random). I would like to have my series' pointmark be this color.

I tried:

series.Appearance.PointMark.FillStyle.MainColor = series.Appearance.LineSeriesAppearance.Color;

This does not work because the color is still define as ARGB 0,0,0 at the time of PageLoad.

How would I fix this issue?

Hello Sean,

 You can execute this logic on BeforeLayout of the chart.

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    ...
    RadChart1.BeforeLayout += new EventHandler<EventArgs>(RadChart1_BeforeLayout);
    ...
}
void RadChart1_BeforeLayout(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    Color c = RadChart1.Series[0].Appearance.LineSeriesAppearance.Color;
    RadChart1.Series[1].Appearance.PointMark.FillStyle.MainColor = c;
}

Do not hesitate to contact if this does not work out.
