RadChart for ASP.NET AJAX

DataGroupColumn property defines the name of the column in the underlying datasource which will be the criteria for grouping the chart series items into series. There will be as many series as the number of distinct values in this column. For each value there will be a ChartSeries in the chart.

GroupNameFormat property defines a format for the legend item when grouping is applied. This format can include free text, which will be displayed in the legend items, as well as the following two special words:

• #NAME - denotes the group column name

• #VALUE - denotes the group column value (it is the same for all the records shown in the same series)

Example:

Consider a chart populated from the following table:

Configure RadChart like this:

• C#
• VB.NET

CopyC#

 

RadChart1.DataGroupColumn = "Year";
RadChart1.PlotArea.XAxis.DataLabelsColumn = "Quarter";
RadChart1.Legend.Appearance.GroupNameFormat = "#NAME:
#VALUE";

CopyVB.NET

 

RadChart1.DataGroupColumn = "Year"
RadChart1.PlotArea.XAxis.DataLabelsColumn = "Quarter"
RadChart1.Legend.Appearance.GroupNameFormat = "#NAME:
#VALUE"

This is the result:
