Set Candlestick chart dynamically

[Michael]

anyone know the settings to create a candlestick chart?  i have a datatable with the appropriate values and i need to bind them to the chart through code.

ChartSeries s = new ChartSeries();
            s.Type = ChartSeriesType.CandleStick;
            s.DataLabelsColumn = "Open";
            //s.DataXColumn = "Date";
            s.DataYColumn = "Open";
            //s.DataYColumn2 = "High";
            //s.DataYColumn3 = "Low";
            //s.DataYColumn4 = "Close";
            //s.DataXColumn = "Date";
            //s.DataXColumn2 = "Date";
            this.chart1.Series.Add(s);

let me claify:

ChartSeries s = new ChartSeries();
            s.Type = ChartSeriesType.CandleStick;
            s.DataYColumn = "Open";
            s.DataYColumn2 = "High";
            s.DataYColumn3 = "Low";
            s.DataYColumn4 = "Close";
            this.chart1.Series.Add(s);

get's me the following error:

CandleStick series requires all Y values to be set.

Hi Michael,

This is a known bug of our chart component that is logged in our TODO list and will be addressed for a subsequent release. Unfortunately there is no temporary workaround available for which we apologize.

Sorry for the inconvenience and thank you for the patience.

Kind regards,

Hello!

What about this bug when adding chartseries from C#. The last post was in 2008 and I've still get this error in 2013?!?!

"CandleStick series requires all Y values to be set."

Please help me!

Hi Gergo,

Currently the Chart item is obsolete and it will not be developed any longer. You can have a look at the new Graph item, but you should know that it does not support the Candlestick scenario. However you can rest assured that it is in our plans for improvement and it will be added in a subsequent version of Telerik Reporting. Please note that we cannot engage with certain time frames at that point.
