[Solved] IsDateTime Bug

[gillou01]

Hi,
i am using this string to create on the fly a chart and when i use the
XamlReader.Load(result)
there is a error message on the IsDateTime attribute.

Could someone have a look?

Here is the string i use:

<control:RadChart Name="RadChart1" Width="499" Height="258">
    <control:RadChart.DefaultView>
      <chart:ChartDefaultView>
        <chart:ChartDefaultView.ChartArea>
          <chart:ChartArea>
            <chart:ChartArea.DataSeries>
              <chart:DataSeries Label="Serie1">
                <chart:DataSeries.Definition>
                  <chart:BarSeriesDefinition />
                </chart:DataSeries.Definition>
                <chart:DataPoint XValue="39425" YValue="3033" />
                <chart:DataPoint XValue="39426" YValue="2589" />
                <chart:DataPoint XValue="39427" YValue="2370" />
              </chart:DataSeries>
              <chart:DataSeries Label="Serie2">
                <chart:DataSeries.Definition>
                  <chart:LineSeriesDefinition />
                </chart:DataSeries.Definition>
                <chart:DataPoint XValue="39425" YValue="21" />
                <chart:DataPoint XValue="39426" YValue="23" />
                <chart:DataPoint XValue="39427" YValue="24" />
              </chart:DataSeries>
              <chart:DataSeries Label="Serie3">
                <chart:DataSeries.Definition>
                  <chart:SplineSeriesDefinition />
                </chart:DataSeries.Definition>
                <chart:DataPoint XValue="39425" YValue="15" />
                <chart:DataPoint XValue="39426" YValue="12" />
                <chart:DataPoint XValue="39427" YValue="10" />
              </chart:DataSeries>
            </chart:ChartArea.DataSeries>
            <chart:ChartArea.AxisX>
              <chart:AxisX DefaultFormat="MM/dd/yy" IsDateTime="True" />
            </chart:ChartArea.AxisX>
          </chart:ChartArea>
        </chart:ChartDefaultView.ChartArea>
      </chart:ChartDefaultView>
    </control:RadChart.DefaultView>
  </control:RadChart>

Hi gillou01,

Unfortunately we must confirm this is a bug within the control. We have logged it in our bugtracking system and it will be fixed for the next official version of the control. Meanwhile, we could suggest you as a workaround not to create the AxisX instance declaratively but set its properties from code like this:

            RadChart chart = XamlReader.Load(@"
<control:RadChart
    xmlns=""http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation""
    xmlns:x=""http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml""
    xmlns:control=""clr-namespace:Telerik.Windows.Controls;assembly=Telerik.Windows.Controls.Charting""
    xmlns:chart=""clr-namespace:Telerik.Windows.Controls.Charting;assembly=Telerik.Windows.Controls.Charting""
    Name=""RadChart1"" Width=""499"" Height=""258"">
    <control:RadChart.DefaultView>
      <chart:ChartDefaultView>
        <chart:ChartDefaultView.ChartArea>
          <chart:ChartArea>
            <chart:ChartArea.DataSeries>
              <chart:DataSeries Label=""Serie1"">
                <chart:DataSeries.Definition>
                  <chart:BarSeriesDefinition />
                </chart:DataSeries.Definition>
                <chart:DataPoint XValue=""39425"" YValue=""3033"" />
                <chart:DataPoint XValue=""39426"" YValue=""2589"" />
                <chart:DataPoint XValue=""39427"" YValue=""2370"" />
              </chart:DataSeries>
              <chart:DataSeries Label=""Serie2"">
                <chart:DataSeries.Definition>
                  <chart:LineSeriesDefinition />
                </chart:DataSeries.Definition>
                <chart:DataPoint XValue=""39425"" YValue=""21"" />
                <chart:DataPoint XValue=""39426"" YValue=""23"" />
                <chart:DataPoint XValue=""39427"" YValue=""24"" />
              </chart:DataSeries>
              <chart:DataSeries Label=""Serie3"">
                <chart:DataSeries.Definition>
                  <chart:SplineSeriesDefinition />
                </chart:DataSeries.Definition>
                <chart:DataPoint XValue=""39425"" YValue=""15"" />
                <chart:DataPoint XValue=""39426"" YValue=""12"" />
                <chart:DataPoint XValue=""39427"" YValue=""10"" />
              </chart:DataSeries>
            </chart:ChartArea.DataSeries>
          </chart:ChartArea>
        </chart:ChartDefaultView.ChartArea>
      </chart:ChartDefaultView>
    </control:RadChart.DefaultView>
  </control:RadChart>
") as RadChart;

            chart.DefaultView.ChartArea.AxisX.DefaultFormat = "MM/dd/yy";
            chart.DefaultView.ChartArea.AxisX.IsDateTime = true;

            LayoutRoot.Children.Add(chart);
