Greetings,

I am currently working with a RadCartesianChart and I was wondering if it was possible to display a ScatterPointSeries with a CandleSticks instead of it's current data-point.  After reading the online documentation, I found out that I cannot use a CandlesticSeries since it requires a categorical axis for the X axis. Would it be doable to create a ScatterCandlesticSeries with the Telerik library?

 

Thank you and have a great day,

François

Hello François,

In order to achieve your requirement you can set the PointTemplate property of the ScatterPointSeries. There you can define a custom shape that mimics a candlestick. 

The candlestick series is usually used in financial chart so the most common axis that is used is DateTimeContinuousAxis. You can also consider using this type of axis if suitable for your scenario.

I hope that helps.

Thank you for your reply, I will look into this and try to mimic a CandleStick using the PointTemplate. Sadly I cannot use the DateTimeContinuousAxis since I have to present scientific results where time is not relevant.

 

Regards
