Hi

I am trying out the chart control and I've noticed that the chart that it produces with my data only shows a subset of the actual data points - a few hundred compared to the total number of points which is a few thousand. Is there some way to tell the chart control to draw all points? I'm guessing that this is the way that the chart control has been designed to 'handle' many thousands of data points but to be honest it makes the control useless for us if we can't show all data.

Cheers

Okay, I've answered my own question

 

 

 

<telerik:RadChart.SamplingSettings>

 

 

 

 

<telerik:SamplingSettings SamplingThreshold="0"/>

 

 

 

 

</telerik:RadChart.SamplingSettings>

 



Trouble is the chart rendering is now so slow. Ho hum, have to go back to the good old asp.net/chartdirector route...

Hi Stuart,

The question here is all about the trade off. Check my blog post for some theory on how sampling works in RadChart. There is a nice property RadChart.SamplingSettings.SamplingThreshold. Giving it a higher value favors better precision, giving it a lower one makes RadChart work faster. RadChart for silverlight is actually infinitely faster with lots of data points compared to RadChart for ASP.NET.

Hope this helps!

Kind regards,
