Adding Series to the chart X items

[Rafal]

Hi, Im trying to programatically create a chart.

I hardcode Xaxis values of A, B, C and would like to add series coresponding to each of thsoe a b c values,

Unfortunately it always ends up adding all of the values to only one of the X axis items.


The fallowing code is the exert from my backend object

/radChartObj.PlotArea.XAxis.Items.Add(new ChartAxisItem("C"));

 

 

//radChartObj.PlotArea.XAxis.Items.Add(new ChartAxisItem("B"));

 

 

 

//radChartObj.PlotArea.XAxis.Items.Add(new ChartAxisItem("A"));

 

 

 

foreach (CallCenterStatistics callCenterStatObj in lstCallCenterStats)

 

{

 

chartSeriesObj =

 

new ChartSeries();

 

chartSeriesObj.Type =

 

ChartSeriesType.Bar;

 

chartSeriesObj.Name = lstChars[count] +

 

"-" + callCenterStatObj.Description;

 

chartSeriesObj.AddItem(

 

Convert.ToInt64(callCenterStatObj.Value), callCenterStatObj.Value + " - " + lstChars[count]);

 

 

chartSeriesObj.Items[0].Label.TextBlock.Appearance.TextProperties.Color =

 

Color.White;

 

chartSeriesObj.Items[0].Label.TextBlock.Appearance.TextProperties.Font =

 

new System.Drawing.Font("Arial", 8,FontStyle.Bold);

 

chartSeriesObj.Items[0].Label.TextBlock.Appearance.AutoTextWrap =

 

AutoTextWrap.True;

 

 

chartSeriesObj.Items[0].Label.Appearance.LabelLocation =

 

StyleSeriesItemLabel.ItemLabelLocation.Inside;

 

chartSeriesObj.Items[0].Label.Appearance.Position.AlignedPosition =

 

AlignedPositions.Left;

 

chartSeriesObj.Items[0].Appearance.FillStyle.MainColor =

 

Color.SeaGreen;

 

chartSeriesObj.Items[0].Appearance.FillStyle.FillType =

 

FillType.Solid;

 

 

 

count ++ ;

radChartObj.Series.Add(chartSeriesObj);

Any ideas what im doing wrong with this one?

Thanks!

Hello Rafal,

I can see your code creating several ChartSeries with one item each. RadChart will place the first ChartSeiresItem of every ChartSeries at the first position along the X axis. What you need here is one ChartSeries with 3 (several) ChartSeriesItems in it. This way the second item will appear at the second position along the X axis. If you need them colored individually, you can check this help topic.
