Hello!

What can one do if the viewModel holds the information wether to display a pie or a bar chart?
Concerning the mvvm pattern I think that this should be the right place - I've tried it like this; perhaps a bit naive:

<telerik:RadChart Name="radChart1" DefaultSeriesDefinition="{Binding MySeriesDef}">
With MySeriesDef a property of type ISeriesDefinition.

But unfortunately this is not working.
How can one achieve this without the need to use code in the View?

A big thanks for any help!!!
Greetings,
Tim.

Hi Tim Robbins,

The DefaultSeriesDefinition property can not be bound in xaml at present. I would recommend you to use the data binding approach when population your RadChart. Your ViewModel could expose a property of type SeriesMappingCollection containing the series mappings needed(along with their SeriesDefinitions). This property should be bound to the RadChart.SeriesMappings collection.

Hope this will help.

Kind regards,
