Hello,
I've been using Telerik Silverlight controls in our product, and am very interested in the new ChartView control. However, I would like to make sure that what I'm trying to do will be possible with the new control. I'll describe below how the functionality is currently implemented - can you please let me know whether/how this would be done with chart view. An example with the chartview would be even more appreciated.
I have a graph where I would like to display multiple values. I'll use a weather analogy - let's say I would like to be able to display temperature trends. So for each date, I would like to display three values:
1) historical average low
2) historical average high
3) average temperature for that day for the current year
4) I would also like to display a "baseline" comparison value, a horizontal line across the whole graph.
The candlestick seemed ideal for the first 3 values, except that it doesn't work since (3) could actually be above/below the range defined by (1) and (2). So I was using a candlestick to show (1) and (2) (I believe rangebar is another option?), and then a separate scatterseries to show (3). (4) is done with a ChartArea Annotation.
My concerns:
1) trackballInfo - I would like to be able to display all 3 values in the trackball popup. However, I haven't figured out from the samples how to do that - it seems to only display the values for a single series, and with my approach I'm using two separate series for this data.
2) I can get a candlestick to show up properly in a sample chartview, however the scatterseries doesn't seem to work. I saw something on the forums about Scatterseries not designed for categorical information - is a date considered categorical?
Finally - your roadmap says the release version of this functionality is coming in February - any update on *when* in February?
Thank you.
Maria
