Stack Chart change datasource series type from candleStick to bar / line

[Dragos]

Hello , 

Can anyone point me in some direction on how i may be able to  change the dataSource series types from candlestick to line or bar or area, or anything else than candlestick.

Thank you in advance.

Just to be more precise i am talking about this example http://demos.telerik.com/kendo-ui/financial/index.

And yes i have searched the documentation found here http://docs.telerik.com/kendo-ui/api/javascript/dataviz/ui/stock-chart. But i can't change the type only to "ohlc", and that is not what i want to do.

Hello Dragos,

Changing the StockChart series is not supported out-of-the-box, however as a workaround I would suggest using the chart.options and redrawing the chart:

// get reference to the chart widget
var chart =$("#stock-chart").data("kendoStockChart");
// change the first series type
chart.options.series[0].type="column";
// change the first series field
chart.options.series[0].field="Open";
// redraw the chart
chart.redraw();

Keep in mind candlestick series expect Open, Close, High and Low fields, while bar / area expect only field.
