    Hi, 

    I'm trying to use the feature of multiple data sources in the RadChart. 
    Like this:

    XAML:
    <telerik:RadChart x:Name="Chart1">
                <telerik:RadChart.SeriesMappings>
                    <telerik:SeriesMappingCollection>
                        <telerik:SeriesMapping x:Name="Series1" ItemsSource="{Binding Data[0]}">
                            <telerik:SeriesMapping.SeriesDefinition>
                                <telerik:LineSeriesDefinition />
                            </telerik:SeriesMapping.SeriesDefinition>
                            <telerik:SeriesMapping.ItemMappings>
                                <telerik:ItemMapping FieldName="Date" DataPointMember="XValue" />
                                <telerik:ItemMapping FieldName="Value" DataPointMember="YValue" />
                            </telerik:SeriesMapping.ItemMappings>
                        </telerik:SeriesMapping>
                        <telerik:SeriesMapping x:Name="Series2" ItemsSource="{Binding Data[1]}">
                            <telerik:SeriesMapping.SeriesDefinition>
                                <telerik:LineSeriesDefinition />
                            </telerik:SeriesMapping.SeriesDefinition>
                            <telerik:SeriesMapping.ItemMappings>
                                <telerik:ItemMapping FieldName="Date" DataPointMember="XValue" />
                                <telerik:ItemMapping FieldName="Value" DataPointMember="YValue" />
                            </telerik:SeriesMapping.ItemMappings>
                        </telerik:SeriesMapping>
                    </telerik:SeriesMappingCollection>
                </telerik:RadChart.SeriesMappings>
            </telerik:RadChart>

    If the Property "Data" is loaded in the constructor of my ViewModel-Class everything works well. But as soon as the Data is loaded after setting the UserControls DataContext (Button-Command), there will raise a NullReferenceException at a point that is not comprehensible to me. 

    ViewModel:
    public class ViewModel
        {
            public ObservableCollection<ObservableCollection<ChartValueData>> Data { get; set; }
            public ICommand LoadChartCommand { get; set; }
             
            public ViewModel()
            {
                Data = new ObservableCollection<ObservableCollection<ChartValueData>>();
                LoadChartCommand = new Telerik.Windows.Controls.DelegateCommand(CreateLineChartData);
            }
     
            private void CreateLineChartData(object o)
            {
                List<ChartValueData> list = new List<ChartValueData>();
                Random random = new Random();
                for (int i = 0; i < 2; i++)
                {
                    for (int j = 0; j < 7; j++)
                    {
                        list.Add(new ChartValueData { Date = new DateTime(2011, j + 1, 1), Value = random.Next(11, 111) });
                    }
     
                    Data.Add(new ObservableCollection<ChartValueData>(list));
                    list = new List<ChartValueData>();
                }
            }
     
        }


    Hope you could give me a hint how to get this working. 

    I created a sample project where the "bug" happens. I'd like to send you the VS-Project as a source where you can understand what my problem is. (The project is mostly the code above) 

    The same problem happens also in WPF-RadChart. We recognized that while a workmate tried to implement your chart in a WPF-Project. 

    Regards,

    Hi Julian,

    Thanks for the details. The problem has been fixed, you can download the Latest Internal Build (currently it is from May 30-th) and give it a try.
