Hi,

I am using a tooltip template in Rad Cartesian Chart View for ScatterSplineSeries. I defined Point Template and tooltip template and able to display X & Y Values. I want to Display the Horizontal Axis Title along with X value and Vertical Axis Title with Y Value. Also I would like to display the spline name too. Somehow I am not able to display the contents. I read in telreik about DataItem property of DataPoint class and even tried using it but unsuccessful .Here is my XAML and View Model.

<telerik:RadCartesianChart x:Name="CartesianChart" Visibility="Visible" HorizontalContentAlignment="Stretch" VerticalContentAlignment="Stretch"

Style="{StaticResource RadCartesianChartStyle1}">

<telerik:RadCartesianChart.Grid>

<telerik:CartesianChartGrid MajorLinesVisibility="XY" MajorXLineStyle="{StaticResource GridLineStyle}"

MajorYLineStyle="{StaticResource GridLineStyle}" />

</telerik:RadCartesianChart.Grid>

<telerik:RadCartesianChart.HorizontalAxis>

<telerik:LinearAxis Title="{Binding HorizontalAxisTitle}" Minimum="0" Maximum="35" LineThickness="2" LineStroke="Transparent"

Foreground="{DynamicResource BRUSH_TEXT}" Style="{StaticResource LinearAxisStyle}" />

</telerik:RadCartesianChart.HorizontalAxis>

<telerik:RadCartesianChart.VerticalAxis>

<telerik:LinearAxis Minimum="0" Maximum="120" Title="{Binding VerticalAxisTitle}" LineThickness="2" Foreground="{DynamicResource BRUSH_TEXT}"

Style="{StaticResource LinearAxisStyle}" />

</telerik:RadCartesianChart.VerticalAxis>

    }

public class Data:ViewModelBase { public double XValue { get; set; } public double YValue { get; set; } }

How do I acheive this. Kindly Help me

Hi,

I figured out that I had to use parent CartesianChart's Datacontext and set the value using Binding. Now I am able to display Horizontal and Vertical Axis Title in tooltip template.

Here is what I did

<telerik:RadCartesianChart.TooltipTemplate>

<DataTemplate>

<Border Background="{DynamicResource BRUSH_TOOLTIP}" BorderBrush="{DynamicResource BRUSH_TOOLTIP}" BorderThickness="1" Padding="10">

<StackPanel Background="{DynamicResource BRUSH_TOOLTIP}">

<StackPanel Width="{TemplateBinding Width}" Orientation="Horizontal" Background="{DynamicResource BRUSH_TOOLTIP}" Margin="5">

<TextBlock Text="{Binding RelativeSource={RelativeSource FindAncestor,

AncestorType={x:Type telerik:RadCartesianChart}}, Path=DataContext.VerticalAxisTitle}" />

<TextBlock Text="{Binding YValue}" />

</StackPanel>

<StackPanel Width="{TemplateBinding Width}" Orientation="Horizontal" Background="{DynamicResource BRUSH_TOOLTIP}" Margin="5">

<TextBlock Text="{Binding RelativeSource={RelativeSource FindAncestor,

AncestorType={x:Type telerik:RadCartesianChart}}, Path=DataContext.HorizontalAxisTitle}" />

<TextBlock Text="{Binding XValue}" />

</StackPanel>

<TextBlock Text="{Binding Presenter.DisplayName}" />

</StackPanel>

</Border>

</DataTemplate>

</telerik:RadCartesianChart.TooltipTemplate>

Hello Shilpa,

In order to display the spline name with your setup, you can use a small change inside the tooltip template. It is demonstrated in the following code snippet. The amendment is marked in orange.

<telerik:RadCartesianChart.TooltipTemplate>

<DataTemplate>

<Border BorderThickness="1" Padding="10">

<StackPanel>

<StackPanel Width="{TemplateBinding Width}" Orientation="Horizontal" Margin="5">

<TextBlock Text=

"{Binding RelativeSource={RelativeSource FindAncestor, AncestorType={x:Type telerik:RadCartesianChart}}, Path=DataContext.VerticalAxisTitle}"

/>

<TextBlock Text="{Binding YValue}" />

</StackPanel>

<StackPanel Width="{TemplateBinding Width}" Orientation="Horizontal" Margin="5">

<TextBlock Text=

"{Binding RelativeSource={RelativeSource FindAncestor, AncestorType={x:Type telerik:RadCartesianChart}}, Path=DataContext.HorizontalAxisTitle}"

/>

<TextBlock Text="{Binding XValue}" />

</StackPanel

<TextBlock Text="{Binding Presenter.DataContext.Name}"

/>

</StackPanel>

</Border>

</DataTemplate>

</telerik:RadCartesianChart.TooltipTemplate>

With this setup the DataContext of the Presenter is the SplineSeries object, where the property Name can be accessed.

If you have further questions about this let us know.
