Chart tooltip

[Tyler]

Please bear with me as I am new to programming –

I am having a difficult time with getting additional information into the chart tooltip. I am pulling data from isostore:/data.sdf to populate the graph (that part is fine) however what I am trying to do is add additional data from the data.sdf context into the tooltip that is not in the mySeries.ValueBinding & mySeries.CategoryBinding. I want to add property ‘Note’ and ‘DataPoint2’ to the tooltip.  

Here is the c#

 mySeries.CategoryBinding = new PropertyNameDataPointBinding() { PropertyName = "DateCreated" };

 mySeries.ValueBinding = new PropertyNameDataPointBinding() { PropertyName = "DataPoint1" };

 Here is the xaml

 <chart:BarSeries ShowLabels="True" CombineMode="Stack" ValueBinding="DataPoint1" ItemsSource="{Binding}">

 <chart:BarSeries.PointTemplate>

 <DataTemplate>

 <Rectangle Fill="{StaticResource PhoneForegroundBrush}" />

 </DataTemplate>

 </chart:BarSeries.PointTemplate>

 </chart:BarSeries >

Hi Tyler,

Thank you for writing.
Are you familiar with the tooltip help article? It contains a great example of how to create a custom object that is used as the tooltip data context. Basically you can put any information that you deem appropriate.

Please write again if you need further assistance.

Thank you for the replay – yes I have seen and was able to reproduce the example. But I was missing something when I try to get it to work the DataPoints index. I was able to make it work with a little help from a friend.

 CategoricalDataPoint pData = series.DataPoints[pointIndex];

 var data = from c in dbBP.Itmes where c.Id == (int)pData.Category select c;
