Plotting a series with two different paths

[Farhan]

Hi,

I am implementing a charting series that shows forcasted charts and their historical information. So I wanted to ask whether I could use the same line series and change the path to a dotted line when I wanted to show projected information. Is it possible by keeping in a flag in the data structure and then using that flag in the data trigger to draw the path as a dotted line instead of a solid line.

Right now my approach is to keep a pair of series in my collection - one for historical and one projected. If I have ten comparisons, I would simply keep 20 series in my collection. Would it be possible to avoid this situation and implement an optimized design as I have to cater to this approach since I wasn't able to work around the fact that we could have only one type of path per series.
Opinions on this would be helpful and I would appreciate a quick response.

Thanks,
Farhan

Hello Farhan,

You may find the dashed/dotted lines discussed in this forum post which should help you achieve your scenario.
