Problem when YValue is below 1

[Rita]

I am very new to Telerik so excuse me if I am leaving something out, but I'll try to be as accurate as possible. I have a RadChart (line chart) with a linqdatasource. The chart renders accurately when all YValues are above 1. However, for any YValue between 0 and 1 (e.g. 0.2, 0.6, etc.), the chart runs directly into the XAxis with no label displayed. In fact, it does not even display a label at 0. For those charts where all YValues are below 1, the chart renders blank, with no datapoints, or labels shown. I have went through the code, and the data is being picked up accurately. I have also tried setting the PlotArea range for the YAxis in steps of .5, rather than 1. The results are still the same.

I'm attaching 4 files:
The following is my codebehind:

    protected void trcBehaviorData_ItemDataBound(object sender, Telerik.Charting.ChartItemDataBoundEventArgs e)
    {
        RethinkAutismDataContext ctx = new RethinkAutismDataContext();

        NameValueCollection nvcNotes = (NameValueCollection)Session["nvcNotes"];

        int index = e.SeriesItem.Index;
        var key = nvcNotes[(index + 1).ToString()];

        var r = ctx.viewBehaviorPlanDataInfos.Where(rr => rr.dataSetId == Convert.ToInt32(key)).FirstOrDefault();
        if (r != null)
        {
            String bNotes = "";
            if (!String.IsNullOrEmpty(r.notes))
                bNotes = ":<br /> " + r.notes;
            e.SeriesItem.ActiveRegion.Tooltip = "<b>" + r.dateCreated.ToString("MM/dd/yyyy") + " " + r.uName + "</b>" + bNotes;
            e.SeriesItem.YValue = (double)r.result;

        }
    }

I'm also attaching images of how some of these charts render, with the behavior described.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hello Rita,
I reviewed your code and the only problem that I could find in it, was that you are trying to change the YValue of the series items in the ItemDataBound handler. However, this would not work in all cases, not only in the case with lass than 1 values.

Unfortunately, I could not run your code without removing most of it and once I was able to run it, I could not reproduce the problem with it. That is why, could you please open a formal support ticket and send me a simple running project that demonstrates the problem?

Best wishes,
Tsvetie

Tsvetie, the problem is actually rectified, and was in the following code snippets:

trcBehaviorData.PlotArea.YAxis.AddRange(1, 120, 10);
trcBehaviorData.PlotArea.YAxis.AddRange(1, 23, 1);
trcBehaviorData.PlotArea.YAxis.AddRange(1, 60, 5);

I was setting the minimum value to 1 - therefore all data points rendered 1 less than the data I was receiving back from the dataObject (i.e. 5 rendered as a 4). For datapoints below 1, the data did not show up altogether.

Thank you for your help in any case. I will definitely look into the ItemDataBound Handler.
