axisx tickpoints to visual tree

[David Ocasio]

Is there a way to get the AxisLabel2D that is assoicated with a particulart tickpoint on the xaxis.

For example to change the foreground color (highlight) on demand ,
(when a user select a particular datapoint or  when the code needs to default select a particular datapoint)

thanks

Ok so i found a way but its fairly convoluted
There must be a better way ??
Is there ?

Dim Tickpoint As TickPoint = Chartarea.AxisX.TickPoints.Where(Function(tp) tp.Label.Equals(Xcategory)).FirstOrDefault
If Tickpoint IsNot Nothing Then
    Dim AxisLabel2D As AxisLabel2D = Chartarea.ChildrenOfType(Of AxisLabel2D).Where(Function(d2) d2.DataContext Is Tickpoint).FirstOrDefault
    If AxisLabel2D IsNot Nothing Then
        AxisLabel2D.Foreground = New SolidColorBrush(Colors.Red)
    End If
End If

thanks

Hi David Ocasio,

RadChart exposes two properties for axis styling customization (AxisElementBrush that sets the color for line, tick elements and AxisForeground that sets the color for all labels) but if you need to customize individual axis elements, you will need to use the approach with the ChildrenOfType(...) method.


Kind regards,

well i thought as much,

yes i am looking to change the style on a particular axis label (single point) when it is selected.

it would be nice to have a built in method or reference instead of searching the tree.
but it still works.

thanks Giuseppe for your help.
