simulate item click in a chart

[Chris Thierry]

Hi, I have this method already defined in my silverlight application:

public

 

 

void chart_Service_ItemClick(object sender, ChartItemClickEventArgs e)

 

{
    my code....
}

I need to call this method for simulating an item click in a pie chart, so I'm calling the method chart_Service_ItemClick

How can I define the e parameter?

chart_Service_ItemClick(chart_Service, ???)

In this method I'm using the e parameter, so I can´t send null, I need to define a correct one, could you please tell me how to define my e parameter of type ChartItemClickEventArgs ?

Thank you.

Hi Chris,

Unforunately you can't simulate ItemClick event like this. As you know which DataPoint you want to click
there is no need to simulate ItemClick like this. You can create a method which does the same job which accepts the DataPoint as a parameter, having in mind that every DataPoint knows its DataSeries through the DataSeries property.

Kind regards,

Hi Evgenia!
Do you have an example?
Thank you.

void ChartArea_ItemClick(object sender, ChartItemClickEventArgs e)
{
    CheckDataPoint(e.DataPoint);
}
void CheckDataPoint(DataPoint mypoint)
{
    //TODO:add some code
}

void AlsoCallCheckDataPoint()
{
    CheckDataPoint(topChart.DefaultView.ChartArea.DataSeries[0].Single(s => (s.DataItem as Company).Name == "AAA"));
}

hope this helps.
regards.
