Best Fit Line

[Michael Fielding]

Is it possible to draw a best fit line or curve through a set of points that have been plotted on a chart control? I have two series, one whose trend is a straight line, and one whose tren is an exponential curve. Can the RAdChart control calculate the best fit line for me? If not, does anyone know where I can find the code to calculate the line so I can plot it manually?

Thanks,

Michael

Hi Michael,

Unfortunately, RadChart does not support this feature. You will have to define a line series and populate it with the points for the best fit line, but you will need to calculate those points. You can find some very good articles about best fit line out there, here is one example:

Hi Michael,

I am sorry to say it but this feature is not in our immediate plans for the control.
