RadChart problem

[Nenad Djukic]

Hello all.

I'm using RadChart and i want to hide values from chart.
Also there is grey background and i cannot change it. I've tried to change it, but it still remains grey. See attached image, please.
Chart's dimensions are 170x130.
Thank you in advance.

Hi Nenad Djukic,

In order to hide the labels you can set the ShowItemLabels property of the SeriesDefinition to false:

RadChart1.DefaultSeriesDefinition.ShowItemLabels = false;

Note, that if you create your own BarSeriesDefinition object, you will have to modify them and not the default one.

As for the background colors, you may use a style for changind the color of the StripLines in the following manner :

<Style x:Key="HorizontalStripLineStyle" TargetType="Rectangle" >
    <Setter Property="Fill" Value="#26FFFFFF" />
</Style>

and in code behind :

RadChart1.DefaultView.ChartArea.AxisX.AxisStyles.AlternateStripLineStyle = this.Resources["HorizontalStripLineStyle"] as Style;

In case you wish to create a style for the chart plot area, please refer to this and this help topics which would give you more information on how to customize the plot area.

Thanx Nikolay.

It's ok now.
One more thing...
If you open attached image, you'll be able to see that one vertical bar contains several smaller parts.
Each of smaller parts has certain value.
Is it possible to show somehow their summary right above vertical bar (as summary label)?
Thanx in advance.

Hi Nenad Djukic,

RadChart supports chart specific format mechanism that allows you to insert context-specific data by using token expressions for the required format strings.You can achieve having a summary label above the bars by leaving only the labels of the last series visible and using the #STSUM token in the item label format, which represents the sum of all stacked items for a given index.

I believe you would find the following help topic useful as it demonstrates how to specify a label format expression to customize the series item labels, tooltips, etc.

Sincerely yours,

Thanks, Nikolay.

Found that option.
Is there any way to customize label? I cannot find way to make label with black background and white foreground.
For example, my bar has orange segment at the top and because of that i have label with orange background and white foreground (font color).
Is there any way to adjust it?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Nenad Djukic,

Please, find attached a sample project, which demonstrates how to set the color of ItemLabel's Foreground and Fill properties.

Hope this would be helpful for you.
