[Solved] Barchnart Newbie Question: How to have multiple bars bound to different values?

[Paul]

Good day!
I'm making a Windows Store app and wish to display data with one of your charts.

In this case I have a List collection of Payment objects which includes the Properties: Month, Principle, Interest

I have the chart series bound to my collection but am only seeing one bar.

How do I have one bar that shows the Principle amount and then next to it the Interest amount?

See XAML below 

Thanks,
Paul

 

 

<telerik:RadCartesianChart Name="Chart" HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" VerticalAlignment="Stretch" Height="624" PaletteName="DefaultDark" SelectionPaletteName="DefaultDarkSelected">
    <telerik:RadCartesianChart.Grid>
        <telerik:CartesianChartGrid MajorLinesVisibility="Y"></telerik:CartesianChartGrid>
    </telerik:RadCartesianChart.Grid>
    <telerik:RadCartesianChart.VerticalAxis>
        <telerik:LinearAxis ></telerik:LinearAxis>
    </telerik:RadCartesianChart.VerticalAxis>
    <telerik:RadCartesianChart.HorizontalAxis>
        <telerik:DateTimeCategoricalAxis DateTimeComponent="Month" LabelFormat="{}{0,0:MMM}" ></telerik:DateTimeCategoricalAxis>
    </telerik:RadCartesianChart.HorizontalAxis>
    <telerik:RadCartesianChart.Series>
        <telerik:BarSeries CombineMode="Cluster">
            <telerik:BarSeries.ValueBinding>

Hello,Paul

Thank you for using our RadControls for Windows8!

I have prepared a sample project using your XAML code which you can see in the attached file. Please compare your project with this example and see if there's a mistake with the current logic or a bug.

I am looking forward to your reply.

 

All the best,
