Numerical (non-Categorical) X Axis

[Travis]

Hello,

I cannot seem to get an X Axis to behave as a non-categorical type of axis. In other words, not only do we have numerical data in the Y-Axis, but also we've got numerical data in the X-Axis. Is this possible with Telerik RadChartView? Or does the X Axis always get treated like a "category"? If so, how?

Thank you...

Regards,

Hello Michael,

I believe this is case is covered in the demos application, could you please take a look at that one, under ChartView -> Drill-down, and drill down to the most explicit chart there there are numerical values for both X an Y values.

Please let me know if I've misunderstood the question

DateTimeContinuousAxis horizontalAxis = new DateTimeContinuousAxis();
horizontalAxis.MajorStepUnit = Charting.TimeInterval.Year;
horizontalAxis.MajorStep = 1;
horizontalAxis.LabelFormat = "{0:yyyy}";
horizontalAxis.Title = "Year";

Starting from this snippet of code, close but not quite. We're not working with DateTime, per se. We are working with TimeSpan, or possibly floats/doubles if we expose TotalSeconds, TotalMilliseconds, etc.

Hi Michael,

Thank you for writing.

From what I understand you want a series which has two numerical dimensions along the two axes. If this is correct then you can have a look at the ScatterSeries and the ScatterLineSeries. They work with two numerical axes. 

I hope this will be useful. Should you have further questions.
