DataBinding to Chart Area

[HarryS]

Hi,

Sorry if this is a silly question!

When databinding to a single chart, everthing works fine using:

var DataInfo = new ServiceReferenceChart.ServiceChartClient();
            DataInfo.GetDataInfoCompleted += (s, ea) =>
            {
                this.radChart2.ItemsSource = ea.Result;
}

But I would like to use ChartAreas, and when trying the below, I just get the default 'No Data Series' message.

var DataInfo = new ServiceReferenceChart.ServiceChartClient();
            DataInfo.GetDataInfoCompleted += (s, ea) =>
            {
                ChartAreaSample.ItemsSource = ea.Result;
}

Anyone know why it works for single chart but not Chart Area?
(I have used manual SeriesMappings on both types of charts)

Many Thanks,
Harry

Hello Harry,

 When you want to use a custom layout with chart areas you still bind to the data as like using the default layout. The only difference is, that you'll have to say to the series on which chart area to draw itself like this:

<telerikCharting:SeriesMapping CollectionIndex="0" ChartAreaName="webBrowsersShare2008Chart">

You can read more on how to data bind to many chart areas in our help topic here.
