Two different ChartAxisLayoutMode in one RadChart?

[Saranya]

Hi,

I have a radchart with two line series. One of them is a horizontal line, which represents a threshold value. 
I would want this line series to have a ChartAxisLayoutMode.Normal and the other line series to have a ChartAxisLayoutMode.Between or Inside.

series1.PlotArea.XAxis.LayoutMode = ChartAxisLayoutMode.Normal;
series2.PlotArea.XAxis.LayoutMode = ChartAxisLayoutMode.Inside;

 How do I do this? Currently, the one written last is overriding the previous.

Thanks

Hi Saranya,

Please note that the LayoutMode property is part of the axis - rather than the series itself. Please try to set this property on the axis and let us know if you have any other questions.

Thanks Pavel, but then how do I simulate a threshold series if another one of my line series has to be with LayoutMode  = Between

Hi Saranya,

The ASP.NET AJAX RadChart supports only a single LayoutMode for all of its series. I believe that you need separate Layout mode for the horizontal threshold line, because you want it to extend from end to end.
If that is the case, you can set the RadChart.PlotArea.XAxis.LayoutMode to the mode you prefer to be used for your regular series, and extend the horizontal line by setting more separate XVaues to its first and last items. Here's an example:

//The range of the axis is from 0 to 100
//Draw a horizontal line at 70 from start to end:
int start = 0;
int end = 100;
var horizontalLine = new ChartSeries { Type = ChartSeriesType.Line };
horizontalLine.AddItem(new ChartSeriesItem(start, 70));
horizontalLine.AddItem(new ChartSeriesItem(end, 70));

//extend its range:
horizontalLine[0].XValue -= (end - start) / 2;
horizontalLine[1].XValue += (end - start) / 2;
this.chartCensusBudget.Series.Add(horizontalLine);

I hope this helps.
