Configuring Pie Chart to show multiple items in legend

[AJ]

Alright, I'm trying to create a pie chart that shows Locations in the Legend so that each location as a designated color, and the values assigned to each location is TotalSales. I thought it would be an easy thing to implement, but I'm running into issues.

When I implement the code below, it shows the TotalSales all around the pie chart (I know that's because of LabelLocation="Auto") but the legend on the right would just say "Series xx". I know how to get the name to change, but I don't know how to get it to create a new item for each location.

Can someone help me out with this?

Here's my code:

<telerik:RadChart ID="radSales" AutoLayout="true" runat="Server" Width="900px" Skin="Web20"
        Style="margin: 0px auto;">
        <Legend Visible="true">
            <Appearance GroupNameFormat="#VALUE">
            </Appearance>
        </Legend>
        <ChartTitle TextBlock-Text="Total Sales">
            <TextBlock>
                <Appearance TextProperties-Font="Verdana, 20px, style=Bold" TextProperties-Color="#00529B">
                </Appearance>
            </TextBlock>
        </ChartTitle>
        <PlotArea>
            <Appearance Dimensions-Margins="18%, 22%, 12%, 14%">
            </Appearance>
            <XAxis DataLabelsColumn="Location">
                <Appearance>
                    <TextAppearance TextProperties-Font="Verdana, 8pt, style=Bold">
                    </TextAppearance>
                </Appearance>
            </XAxis>
        </PlotArea>
        <Series>
            <telerik:ChartSeries DataXColumn="Location" DataYColumn="TotalSales" DefaultLabelValue="#Y{C}"
                Type="Pie">
                <Appearance>
                    <LabelAppearance LabelLocation="Auto">
                    </LabelAppearance>
                    <TextAppearance TextProperties-Font="Verdana, 11pt, style=Bold" TextProperties-Color="#00529B">
                    </TextAppearance>
                </Appearance>
            </telerik:ChartSeries>
        </Series>
    </telerik:RadChart>

Hi Brian,

Try setting the LegendDisplayMode to ItemLabels. This will create new legend items with accordance to the color of each pie slice.

For example:

<Series>
    <telerik:ChartSeries Type=Pie DataYColumn="Data" DataLabelsColumn="Name">
    <Appearance LegendDisplayMode="ItemLabels" />
    </telerik:ChartSeries>
  </Series>

Hope that helps.
