Custom Attributes for ChartClickEventArgs args

[Tim Chisholm]

I would like to add a custom attribute to a RadChart so that I can use it when the user clicks on the series.

Currently I have an exploded pie chart.  I can parse the data that is displayed.  But I would prefer to add an ID to the series and be able to parse the ID when I go to drill down on the click event.

Thanks

Hello Tim,

You can use the ChartSeriesItem.Label or ChartSeriesItem.Name for this purpose. However, Label is shown next to the pie slice and Name is shown in the legend. If you use both of them and you do not want to show the ID you can use the ChartSeriesItem.ActiveRegion.Attributes instead:

<telerik:ChartSeries Name="Series 1" Type="Pie">
    <Appearance LegendDisplayMode="ItemLabels">
    </Appearance>
    <Items>
        <telerik:ChartSeriesItem Name="Item 1" YValue="6">
            <ActiveRegion Attributes="id='a1'" />
        </telerik:ChartSeriesItem>
        <telerik:ChartSeriesItem Name="Item 2" YValue="5">
            <ActiveRegion Attributes="id='a2'" />
        </telerik:ChartSeriesItem>
        <telerik:ChartSeriesItem Name="Item 3" YValue="6">
            <ActiveRegion Attributes="id='a3'" />
        </telerik:ChartSeriesItem>
        <telerik:ChartSeriesItem Name="MyItem3" YValue="7">
            <ActiveRegion Attributes="id='a4'" />
        </telerik:ChartSeriesItem>
    </Items>
</telerik:ChartSeries>
