RangeBarSeries, Proportional size in function of the area instead of the steps ?

[Mickael]

Hi,

I'm working with a RadCartesianChart to display Value / Time.
I'm using an DateTimeContinuousAxis as bottom axis. 
On this Axis I use a Major Step Unit in Days.

I display 2 series. One with value in days and one with value in hour.

The day serie is display with a simple LineSeries.

The hour serie MUST but be displayed in a RangeBarSeries to show min/max values.

In this case the Bar are to wide. My probleme is that RangeBarSerieModel generate a RadSize in function of the Axis Step size and not in function of the value covered by it.
In this case the Bar are to wide. 

For example 1 step == 1 day is represented by 28px then the bar have a width of 28px.

Is it possible to change the behavior to have a bar width = (Day/hour) * StepSize = Min(1,  1/24 * 28) ?

This way the width of the bar correspond to the time the value represent.

Thanks,

Hi Mickael,

What you could try is to specify custom DataTemplate for the PointTemplate property of the RangeBarSeries. Then you can declare a Rectangle and bind the Width property. The DataContext of the DataTemplate is a RangeDataPoint object. The next step is to create custom IValueConverter class and apply it to the binding. In the Convert() method you can return the desired value. I am not sure about your formula but you can use the approach and create your own formula on your side.

For your convenience, I have created a sample project to demonstrate this approach. The project is attached to this reply. Give this project a try and let me know if it works for you.
