custom label in bar series

[Kevin Tran]

HI Support,

I used  a stacked chart with series mappings, Everything working fine, which is great now Only thing i want is i want to display custom label for each series, With item label true i am able to show the value of that particular series , in addition to that i need to display a label for each group,How can i achieve that.

Tx.

Hello Kevin Tran,

There are two ways you can get closer to your desired scenario:
1) Using categorical charts - http://www.telerik.com/help/silverlight/radchart-features-categorical-charts.html but the labels will be shown along the X-Axis.
2) Try using customized labels by specifying label formats as shown here - http://www.telerik.com/help/silverlight/radchart-features-format-expressions.html

HI Support

here is my code i used to chnage colors for individual bars

private Style CreateItemStyle(Control control, Style baseStyle, DataPoint dataPoint, DataSeries dataSeries)
    {
        // Do not change the style of the legend item
        if (control is ChartLegendItem)
            return baseStyle;

        if (dataPoint == null)
            return baseStyle;
        //dataPoint
        // Create a new style, do not use the one that is provided as parameter.
        Style newStyle = new Style(baseStyle.TargetType);
        newStyle.BasedOn = baseStyle;
        Brush brush = null;
        Brush Foregroundbrush = null;
        if (control is BaseChartItem2D)
        {

            if (dataPoint.XCategory.ToString() == "Pipeline")
            {
                if (temp == 0)
                {
                    brush = new SolidColorBrush(Colors.Transparent);
                }
                else if (temp == 1)
                {
                    //brush = new SolidColorBrush(Color.FromArgb(255, 0, 126, 0));
                    brush = new SolidColorBrush(Colors.Magenta);
                }
                else if (temp == 2)
                {
                    //brush = new SolidColorBrush(Color.FromArgb(255, 130, 149, 33));
                    brush = new SolidColorBrush(Colors.Red);
                }
                temp++;
            }
            newStyle.Setters.Add(new Setter(Shape.FillProperty, brush));
            //newStyle.Setters.Add(new Setter(Shape.StyleProperty ,CustomStyle1));
        }
        string strLabel = "";
        if (control is SeriesItemLabel)
        {

           if (dataPoint.XCategory.ToString() == "Pipeline")
            {
                if (temp1 == 0)
                {
                    Foregroundbrush = new SolidColorBrush(Colors.Blue);
                }
                else if (temp1 == 1)
                {
                    Foregroundbrush = new SolidColorBrush(Colors.Blue);
                }
                temp1++;
            }
            newStyle.Setters.Add(new Setter(SeriesItemLabel.ForegroundProperty, Foregroundbrush));
            newStyle.Setters.Add(new Setter(SeriesItemLabel.ContentProperty, strLabel));
        }
        if (control is SeriesItemLabel)
        {
            newStyle.Setters.Add(new Setter(SeriesItemLabel.FillProperty, brush));
        }
        return newStyle;
    }

here is the code block to call this delegate

RadChart1.CreateItemStyleDelegate = CreateItemStyle;

So i am able to set color property but i am not able to do same with the content property

Thanks

Hi Kevin Tran,

This delegate is OK to be used for styling individual bars labels. To be able to give each label new content try the ItemDataBound event and set e.DataPoint.Label as per your requirements.

Hi,
I want to create a Waterfall chart by using your controls. Could you please let me how can I do that?
Thanks

[Evgenia]

Hi safeer,

Unfortunately current version of RadChart does not provide Waterfall chart officially. We'll consider this in our future releases. Meanwhile, you can check the implementation shared by Alexey Oyun in the other thread where you posted your question.
