Doughnut 2D Label color

[Enill]

I have a Doughnut 2D Chart where i applied texture on the different slices by using a palettes.

The problem is that the label also have this texture image in the background and with the white text font it is pretty much unreadable.

I want to keep the image in the background of the different labels but i would like to change the font color to bold black.

How can i achive that?

Thanks in advance!

Actually i was able to change the color for all the label by changing the value of the Foreground property.

I am more interested in changing the font AND to know how could i change the color of each label individually.

Thanks!

Hello Enill,

Here is a sample code, that will allow you to change the appearance of each element through the code-behind:

private Brush[] brushes = new Brush[] {
    new SolidColorBrush(Colors.Red),
    new SolidColorBrush(Color.FromArgb(64, 0, 255, 255)),
    new SolidColorBrush(Color.FromArgb(128, 255, 0, 255))
};

public MainPage()
{
    InitializeComponent();

    this.radChart1.CreateItemStyleDelegate = CustomItemStyle;
}

private Style CustomItemStyle(Control item, Style baseStyle, DataPoint dataPoint, DataSeries dataSeries)
{
    Style style = baseStyle;

    if (item is SeriesItemLabel)
    {
        SeriesItemLabel itemLabel = item as SeriesItemLabel;
        style = new Style(baseStyle.TargetType);
        style.BasedOn = baseStyle;

        Brush brush = brushes[dataSeries.IndexOf(dataPoint) % brushes.Length];

        style.Setters.Add(new Setter(SeriesItemLabel.FillProperty, brush));
    }
    return style;
}

The RadChart.CreateItemStyleDelegate is called for each chart item, each chart item's label, and each legend item.

You can use it together with the PaletteBrushes collection and the Appearance API.
