Hello

i am doing a evaluation of the Silverlight Char Controls
 
i have a List<decimal[]> with 7 arrays. this is the itemssource for a chart with listseries.
Inside every array there are 210 elements. But the chart is not shown. When i put 10 elements inside every array the chart is shown.
Is there a limitation?

regards
Dieter

Hello Dieter,

When the chart is populated with a lot data, as in your example, the visual representation might not be clear.This is why RadChart uses sampling, which combines the items, so that the DataPoints are limited to a specific number, which is 200 by default - this is the default SamplingThershold property of the SamplingSettings. If you need to display all DataPoints, the SamplingThershold should be set to '0' in the following manner :
RadChart1.SamplingSettings.SamplingThreshold = 0;

Please note, that to maximize the performance when dealing with a lot of data disabling the series ItemLabels, Tooltips and PointMarks comes in handy :
LineSeriesDefinition definition = new LineSeriesDefinition();
definition.ShowItemLabels = false;
definition.ShowItemToolTips = false;
definition.ShowPointMarks = false;

For more information on Sampling, please refer to this help topic. Hope this information would be helpful to you.

All the best,
Nikolay
