The RadCartesianChart control (or its axes) sometimes causes this exception (The property 'LabelStyle' was not found in type 'Telerik.Windows.Controls.Charting.Axis'.) or a similar exception (The property 'MajorTickStyle' was not found in type 'Telerik.Windows.Controls.Charting.Axis'.) to be thrown.

The strange thing is that it seems to happen randomly. Simply reloading the webpage (i.e. reloading the Silverlight plugin) usually fixes the problem.

I've tried setting these properties in several ways, both in xaml and code-behind. When in xaml, the exception is thrown during the InitializeComponent() of the page. When in code-behind, it's thrown at startup of the application.

I've not been able to reproduce it in a new project with a RadCartesianChart. Maybe the size of the project has something to do with it?

Currently I'm adding the axes in code-behind like this (in the Loaded event of the chart):

LinearAxis verticalAxis = new LinearAxis()

{

Title = "",

Name = "MyVerticalAxis",

Style = App.Current.Resources["ChartCustomAxis"] as Style,

LabelStyle = App.Current.Resources["ChartLabel"] as Style

};

ChartJam.VerticalAxis = verticalAxis;

DateTimeContinuousAxis horizontalAxis = new DateTimeContinuousAxis()

{

Title = "",

Name = "MyHorizontalAxis",

PlotMode = Telerik.Charting.AxisPlotMode.OnTicks,

Style = App.Current.Resources["ChartCustomAxis"] as Style,

LabelStyle = App.Current.Resources["ChartLabel"] as Style,

LabelFitMode = Telerik.Charting.AxisLabelFitMode.Rotate

};

ChartJam.HorizontalAxis = horizontalAxis;

The styles are defines as follows:

<Style x:Key="ChartCustomAxis" TargetType="telerik:Axis">

<Setter Property="MajorTickStyle">

<Setter.Value>

<Style TargetType="Rectangle">

<Setter Property="Fill" Value="#FFD7D7D7"/>

<Setter Property="Opacity" Value="0.3"/>

</Style>

</Setter.Value>

</Setter>

</Style>

<Style x:Key="ChartLabel" TargetType="TextBlock">

<Setter Property="Foreground" Value="White" />

<Setter Property="Margin" Value="1"/>

</Style>

Any help much appreciated.

Even when I remove all charts from the project, the problem still occurs randomly (at startup) when I have the following code in one of the project's general ResourceDictionaries:

... xmlns:telerik="http://schemas.telerik.com/2008/xaml/presentation" ...

...

<Style x:Key="ChartCustomAxis" TargetType="telerik:Axis">

<Setter Property="MajorTickStyle">

<Setter.Value>

<Style TargetType="Rectangle">

<Setter Property="Fill" Value="#FFD7D7D7"/>

<Setter Property="Opacity" Value="0.3"/>

</Style>

</Setter.Value>

</Setter>

</Style>

How is this possible?

Hi Jeroen,

We are sorry to hear that you are experiencing problems with our controls. We know that randomly-occuring errors are the most annoying of all.

In this particular situation I have a hunch why this is happening. Currently we have two chart controls: RadChart (assembly Telerik.Controls.Charting) and RadChartView (assembly Telerik.Controls.Chart). Both of these assemblies have an Axis class. I guess that you have added both of the references to your project and this is the origins of the problem.

1. I would suggest that you don't add both of these dlls. This should fix the problem.

2. If you need both of these assemblies - I can suggest that you do not use the Telerik schema:

xmlns:telerik="http://schemas.telerik.com/2008/xaml/presentation"

but use the full name of the clr-namespace:

<UserControl xmlns:radcharting="clr-namespace:Telerik.Windows.Controls;assembly=Telerik.Windows.Controls.Charting"

xmlns:charting="clr-namespace:Telerik.Windows.Controls.Charting;assembly=Telerik.Windows.Controls.Charting" />

for RadChart and:

<UserControl xmlns:radchartview="clr-namespace:Telerik.Windows.Controls;assembly=Telerik.Windows.Controls.Chart"

xmlns:chartview="clr-namespace:Telerik.Windows.Controls.ChartView;assembly=Telerik.Windows.Controls.Chart" />

for the RadChartView.

I apologize for all caused inconvenience. Let us know if this fixes the currently present issues.

Unfortunately today I've encountered a problem again, in a version of my application where I've implemented the "fix". Again the error only happens sometimes. Usually simply reloading the webpage fixes the issue.

The exception now thrown is: Could not load file or assembly 'Telerik.Windows.Controls.Chart, Version=2012.1.326.1050, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=5803cfa389c90ce7' or one of its dependencies. The requested assembly version conflicts with what is already bound in the app domain or specified in the manifest. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80131053)

In the xaml the only namespaces referenced are:

xmlns:radchartview="clr-namespace:Telerik.Windows.Controls;assembly=Telerik.Windows.Controls.Chart"

xmlns:chartview="clr-namespace:Telerik.Windows.Controls.ChartView;assembly=Telerik.Windows.Controls.Chart"

Hi Jeroen,

I have created a project based on the code that you have provided and I do not get any errors and I do not see any errors in the code.

We need some more information on your current project. Are you also referencing the Charting assembly or only the Chart assembly? Can you please verify if all referenced Telerik assemblies have the same version.

The only thing that comes to my mind is that may be you have not referenced the Controls and Data assemblies (Telerik.Windows.Controls and Telerik.Windows.Data), so please check this.

If this problem persists, I will have to ask that you open a support ticket and send us a project (which includes the binaries you use) that reproduces this exception, so that we can test and investigate the origins of this problematic behavior.
