Chart Series Builder - Donut Colour

[Lee]

Hi,

I'm using a Donut Chart and would like to specify the Color via expression like the expressionValue and categoryExpression like so:

series
    .Donut(model => model.Count, model => model.Status, model => model.Color)

I've looked via source code and can see that the ChartSeries class does have a Color filed but with no way of specifying it.

Can you please recommend a fix/solution?

PS I am using remote data source.

Hello Lee,

The Chart series color can be set via the ColorField property that points to the data item field which contains the series color. For example:

@(Html.Kendo().Chart<WebApplication1.Models.ChartModel>()
        .Name("chart")
        .Series(series => {
            series.Donut("Value", "Category")
                .ColorField("Color")
        })
    )

FOr your reference, I am attaching a small Mvc Core project demonstrating this.

Regards,
Nikolay
