Hello Jeremy,

Thank you for writing.

In order to change the data points color, you can set the LineSeries.BackColor property:

LineSeries lineSeries = new LineSeries();

lineSeries.DataPoints.Add(new CategoricalDataPoint(20, "Jan"));

lineSeries.DataPoints.Add(new CategoricalDataPoint(22, "Apr"));

lineSeries.DataPoints.Add(new CategoricalDataPoint(12, "Jul"));

lineSeries.DataPoints.Add(new CategoricalDataPoint(19, "Oct"));

this.radChartView1.Series.Add(lineSeries);

lineSeries.PointSize = new SizeF(10, 10);

lineSeries.BorderColor = Color.Red;

lineSeries.BackColor = Color.Aqua;

I hope this information helps. Should you have further questions I would be glad to help.

Check out the Windows Forms project converter, which aids the conversion process from standard Windows Forms applications written in C# or VB to Telerik UI for WinForms.For more information check out this blog post and share your thoughts.

Hello Jeremy,

Thank you for writing back.

In order to customize the labels, feel free to use the RadChartView.LabelFormatting event:

private void radChartView1_LabelFormatting(object sender, ChartViewLabelFormattingEventArgs e)

{

e.LabelElement.ForeColor = Color.Lime;

e.LabelElement.BackColor = Color.White;

e.LabelElement.BorderColor = Color.Black;

}

I hope this information helps. If you have any additional questions, please let me know.
