Hi Ves,
I have one query regarding the X-axix majorgridline.
How cloud I disable the alter native gridline for x-axis.
I have a list of 16 items. If I bind the list to series. I'm will see 16 major gridlines but I want to show only 8.
Can U tell me how cloud I disale alternative gridlines.

Hello Ram,

The X axis gridlines, ticks and labels are tied together. You can hide every second label like this:

RadChart1.PlotArea.XAxis.LabelStep=2;

This will hide every second label, along with the corresponding tick and gridline.

Please look at it and suggest me where I'm doing wrong

Hello Ram,

My suggestion would be applicable for auto-scaled X axis. Given your setup, I would recommend setting the Step to 2 and providing XValue for each ChartSeriesItem. Please, find attached a small example based on your code.

Hi Ves

I need your help on this matter:
For current WPF project I must create a report with an embedded Chart which must display horizontal gridlines (corresponding to Y axis) for certain values (not major or minor gridlines!). Please see attached file.

Short explanations: on X axis: time, on Y axis: weight (kg)

After one working day I couldn't find any solution.
Any help will be appreciated (an example would be great).

Thanks a lot!!

Hi Dan,

You can use our Annotations (Custom GridLine or CustomLine) to achieve your scenario. For example if you want to have an Average line which should cross the average point in your chart, you should find this average point in your data. If your datasource is a List for example or any generic you may use a LINQ Aggregator function to find the average amongst your elements.

Also as a side note - I would like to ask you to post your future questions in their corresponding Product forum. Since your question is related to RadChart for WPF - I suggest that we continue our further comunication on this in the RadChart for WPF forum or in a new formal Support thread.

Hi Evgenia

The issue is about a Rad Chart embeded into a Telerik Report therefore your sugestions doesn't help me at all.
There is no xaml there!

I post it here because I searched for related subjects; in future I'll be more careful.

Thanks for your time.

Hi Dan,

Your question was answered in the other forum thread started by you. I suggest that you keep the future conversation on this there so that it is easy for both of us to follow it.
