Make all the colors consistent

[Trump]

I manually set the color of a Line Series in xaml as Blue. Now in tooltip I also want the same color.

<telerik:LineSeries x:Name=ser1 ItemsSource="{Binding Data}"
CategoryBinding="Name" Stroke="Blue" ValueBinding="Value">
   <telerik:LineSeries.TooltipTemplate>
        <DataTemplate>
             <SatckPanel>
                <ItemsControls ItemsSource="{Binding}">
                    <ItemsControl.Template>
                        <DataTemplate>
                           <Ellipse Width="12" Height="12" Fill="Blue">
                    ....
                        </DataTemplate>
                     </ItemsControl.Template>
                <ItemsControls>
            </StackPanel>
         </DataTemplate>
    </telerik:LineSeries.TooltipTemplate>
</telerik:LineSeries>

Now my question if we don't use hard code how can we make the colors same?

Hello Trump,

The data context in the tooltip template is DataPoint object which contains information about the series. You can use this to get its Stroke and color the tooltip accordingly.

<telerik:LineSeries.TooltipTemplate>
    <DataTemplate>
         <StackPanel Background="{Binding Presenter.Stroke}">
         </StackPanel>
    </DataTemplate>
</telerik:LineSeries.TooltipTemplate>

In this case 'Presenter' is a property of DataPoint which holds a reference to the LineSeries.
