[Solved] Problem dynamically creating a chart

[MW]

Hi

I am currently using the latest release of the RadControls (2009 SP2).  I am trying to create a chart dynamicall but whenever it hits the following line, chart.DefaultView.ChartArea.DataSeries.Add(dataSeries), the application freezes and its just a white screen.  There are similar posts about this that says this was fixed in a previous release.  Can you tell me if this is still a bug or if I am doing something wrong.

                // Create a new Chart element.
                RadChart chart = new RadChart();

                // Set some chart defaults.
                chart.DefaultView.ChartArea.AxisX.StripLinesVisibility = Visibility.Collapsed;
                chart.DefaultView.ChartArea.AxisY.MajorGridLinesVisibility = Visibility.Collapsed;

                // Create a new DataSeries.
                DataSeries dataSeries = new DataSeries();

                // Add some hardcoded data points.
                Dictionary<string, double> dataPoints = new Dictionary<string, double>();

                dataPoints.Add("A", 0.121127226879971);
                dataPoints.Add("B", -0.511961779733487);
                dataPoints.Add("C", -0.394865386295022);

                // Add the datapoints.
                foreach (var point in dataPoints)
                {
                    // Create a new DataPoint.
                    DataPoint dataPoint = new DataPoint();

                    dataPoint.XCategory = point.Key;
                    dataPoint.YValue = point.Value;

                    // Add DataPoint to DataSeries.
                    dataSeries.Add(dataPoint);
                }

                // Set the type of graph to draw.
                dataSeries.Definition = new BarSeriesDefinition();

                // Add DataSeries to Chart
                chart.DefaultView.ChartArea.DataSeries.Add(dataSeries);

Thanks

Hello MW,

I was not able to reproduce this problematic behavior. Please, find attached my sample application which uses exactly your code. I would ask you to download the latest internal build from your customer account and in case the problem persist, please, prepare and send us a sample project which we could further examine and provide a solution.
