Hi

I am using Telrik RadCharts 3 for SL3 and want to know which namespace have DrillDownChartToolTip class inorder to implement DrillDown functionality.

thanks

Hello Manish,

There is no built-in DrillDownToolTip class within the chart control. You can check the DrillDown example online here or you can find it in your local installed demo application under Chart / DrillDown category.

Hi
I am using SL3.0 RadCharts and my requirement is to save the RadCharts to a known location as an image file (bmp , png), for which i donot want to use SaveFileDialog box. So without using SaveFileDialog box will i be able to save as an image out of the RadChart

thanks Manish.

Hi Manish,

This would not be possible as SaveFileDialog is the only way you could get access to the file system in Silverlight (writable file stream).

Hi Freddie

Thanks for giving me reply! But is not there any way that I convert the Chart to some stream or byte array like through the use of BitmapWriter and transport it through WCF service where in it can be saved to the server folder. I guess there must be some alternative.

thanks

Hello Manish,

You can try using the RadChart.ExportToImage(stream) method to achieve the desired functionality.

Hi
1) I can't use SL3's RadChart.ExportToImage(stream) method as this method requires you to use "SaveFileDialog" to save the chart image at the client machine but I want to save the chart image at the server side at the server local mappath (c:\\inetpub\\wwwroot\\projectname\\images\\) and this path gives illegal access error on runtime if I try to use System.IO namespace to provide this path.If there is any other way round to use RadChart.ExportToImage(stream) method and to save it to the server mappath images folder by some name I want to know that procedure.
2) I need to know if there is any event that can specify if the chart is completely loaded with all of its datapoint. I tried Loaded event of RadChart but it is not solving my problem 

thanks
Manish

Hi Manish,

RadChart does not expose additional methods beside RadChart.ExportToImage(stream) so unfortunately if it is not suitable to your needs, we would not be able to offer you different option.

As for your second question -- if you are populating the chart with data through databinding, you can use the RadChart.DataBound event.
