set individual seriesitem bubblesize

hello,

i have radchart that i create programmatically.  i add a few line series and 1 bubble series programmatically

i would like to control the point sizes of each series item individually in the bubble series.  i cannot seem to control the individual point sizes of either a point series or a bubble series.

i have autosize = false;  here is some code i am using.

               Telerik.Charting.ChartSeries rulecs = new Telerik.Charting.ChartSeries();
                rulecs.Name = Resources.MyGlobalResources.Rules;
                rulecs.Appearance.FillStyle.MainColor = Color.Green;
                rulecs.Appearance.FillStyle.SecondColor = Color.Green;
                rulecs.Appearance.BubbleSize = 4;
                rulecs.Type = Telerik.Charting.ChartSeriesType.Bubble;
                rulecs.Appearance.PointMark.FillStyle.MainColor = Color.Green;
                rulecs.Appearance.PointMark.FillStyle.SecondColor = Color.Green;
                rulecs.Appearance.LegendDisplayMode = Telerik.Charting.ChartSeriesLegendDisplayMode.Nothing;
                rulecs.Appearance.PointDimentions.AutoSize = false;          
                rulecs.Appearance.ShowLabels = false;
                rulecs.Appearance.LabelAppearance.Visible = false;

then

to control each individual points

                        if (cbl_rules.Items[0].Selected)
                        {
                            for (int i = 0; i < a.Length; i++)
                            {
                                if (a[i])
                                {
                                    if (rulecs.Items[i].ActiveRegion.Tooltip.Length > 0)
                                        rulecs.Items[i].ActiveRegion.Tooltip = rulecs.Items[i].ActiveRegion.Tooltip + "," + Resources.MyGlobalResources.R1;
                                    else
                                        rulecs.Items[i].ActiveRegion.Tooltip = Resources.MyGlobalResources.R1;
                                    rulecs.Items[i].PointAppearance.Dimensions.AutoSize = false;
                                    rulecs.Items[i].PointAppearance.Dimensions.Height = 6;
                                    rulecs.Items[i].Appearance.FillStyle.MainColor = Color.Red;
                                    rulecs.SetItemColor(i, Color.Red);
                                    rulecs.Items[i].Appearance.FillStyle.MainColor = Color.Red;
                                    rulecs.Items[i].Appearance.FillStyle.SecondColor = Color.Red;
                                    rulecs.Items[i].PointAppearance.Dimensions.Width = 6;
                                }
                            }
                        }

else leave the point as the original size and color.

the points only seem to change when i change the following code

rulecs.Appearance.BubbleSize = 4;

please help as i have looked through the help and forums but have not been able to control the sizing of each point individually.  that said, i can control the color.  please let me know, thanks.

questions.

1.  can i control the size and color of each individual point separately in a point and bubble series? if so, how, if not, why not?

thanks again,


avh

weird, but i got it.

thanks,

avh

I'm having the same issue, can you share what the secret was to controling the point sizes individually?  I;m trying it in my ItemDataBound event and can get everything but the size to play nice.

Thanks in advance,
Rick

Rick,

1.  Pick point series.
2.  Make sure Autosize is false.
3.  Use the correct code to set the size.

Example below.

use this code

Telerik.Charting.

ChartSeries rulecs = new Telerik.Charting.ChartSeries();

rulecs.Name = Resources.

MyGlobalResources.Rules;

rulecs.Appearance.FillStyle.MainColor =

Color.Black;

rulecs.Appearance.FillStyle.SecondColor =

Color.Black;

rulecs.Type = Telerik.Charting.ChartSeriesType.Point;

rulecs.Appearance.PointMark.FillStyle.MainColor =

Color.Black;

rulecs.Appearance.PointMark.FillStyle.SecondColor =

Color.Black;

rulecs.Appearance.PointDimentions.AutoSize = false;

//rulecs.Appearance.PointMark.Dimensions.Height = 6;

//rulecs.Appearance.PointMark.Dimensions.Width = 6;

rulecs.Appearance.PointDimentions.Width = 6;

rulecs.Appearance.PointDimentions.Height = 6;

rulecs.Items[i].Appearance.PointDimentions.AutoSize =

false;

rulecs.Items[i].Appearance.PointDimentions.Height = Telerik.Charting.Styles.

Unit.Pixel(9);

rulecs.Items[i].Appearance.PointDimentions.Width = Telerik.Charting.Styles.

Unit.Pixel(9);

rulecs.Items[i].Appearance.FillStyle.MainColor =

Color.Red;

and not the code below

rulecs.Items[i].PointAppearance.Dimensions.Height = Telerik.Charting.Styles.

Unit.Pixel(9);

rulecs.Items[i].PointAppearance.Dimensions.Width = Telerik.Charting.Styles.

Unit.Pixel(9);

rulecs.Items[i].PointAppearance.Dimensions.AutoSize =

false;

it was and still is confusing to me.  you can see that i tried both scenarios and commented them out.  i searched the help but the help was of no help to me in this case.


good luck with this spooky stuff,

avh

Hmmm, that is weird...but adding the autosize = false EACH TIME I wanted to mess with a point in code was the trick.

I'd seen postings eluding to that in the forums, but I set Autosize to false for both PointDimensions and PointMark through the designer (Chart Series Collection Editor), so I assumed that since I was setting it for the series, it would apply to each of the points....guess not.

Thanks for the quick response, you saved me from a few more hours of forum dredging.

Take the rest of the day off,
Rick

Rick,

No problem!
