Customised Layout Databind Issue

[Rav Panchalingam]

Hi All,

I have previously used an ArrayList as the ItemSource for my chart, this worked correctly

RadChart1.ItemSource = GetData();

Where GetData returned the ArrayList.

I know would like to customise the layout of my RadChart, I have done this in XAML

<telerik:RadChart x:Name="RadChart1" telerik:StyleManager.Theme="Vista" UseDefaultLayout="False">

<Grid>

<Grid.RowDefinitions>

<RowDefinition Height="1*" />

<RowDefinition Height="6*" />

</Grid.RowDefinitions>

<Grid.ColumnDefinitions>

<ColumnDefinition />

</Grid.ColumnDefinitions>

<telerik:ChartTitle Content="Sample Report" Grid.Row="0" Grid.Column="0"

VerticalAlignment="Center" HorizontalAlignment="Center"

TextElement.FontWeight="Bold" TextElement.FontSize="24" />

<telerik:ChartArea x:Name="ChartArea1" Grid.Row="1" Grid.Column="0" />

</Grid>

</telerik:RadChart>

And now neither RadChart1.ItemSource nor ChartArea1.ItemSource will correctly display any graph data ("No Data Series")

Also I cannot add a dataseries to the dataseries collection using

ChartArea1.DataSeries.Add(

I get the following error

Error   1   'Telerik.Windows.Controls.Charting.DataSeriesCollection' does not contain a definition for 'Add' and no extension method 'Add' accepting a first argument of type 'Telerik.Windows.Controls.Charting.DataSeriesCollection'

Can anyone offer help on this please?

Hi Rav,

I am afraid this is a limitation in the current version of the control. It will be fixed in the next version.

Was this fixed?  I am having the same issue with Q10 charts.

Hello Bill Sivill,

This feature is available for a long time now. The SeriesMapping class exposes the ChartAreaName property that makes the relation between data and the ChartArea instance. Here is an article explaining this in more details.

Hope this will help.
