unable to remove gradient

[ketan reddy]

a quick question..

I have been trying to get the color of my Pie chart slice to be a solid single blue color. But then it has this whitish tinge to it. It starts with a solid blue but  halfway through the slice, it becomes whitish blue. I tried the following setting:

   chartSerie.Appearance.FillStyle.FillType = Telerik.Charting.Styles.FillType.Solid;

What could be teh problem?

Hello ketan,

This is the correct property to go with. Can you share more details about your implementation, please?

I created a sample chart (this time from designer) and again the same results -- there is a whitish tinge to the color.  Here is the code:

<

body>

 

 

<form id="form1" runat="server">

 

 

<div>

 

 

<telerik:RadChart ID="RadChart1" runat='server' DefaultType="Pie"

 

 

SeriesPalette="Colorful">

 

 

<Series>

 

 

<cc1:ChartSeries Name="Series 1" Type="Pie">

 

 

<Appearance>

 

 

<FillStyle FillType="Solid">

 

 

</FillStyle>

 

 

</Appearance>

 

 

<Items>

 

 

<cc1:ChartSeriesItem Name="Item 1" YValue="20">

 

 

</cc1:ChartSeriesItem>

 

 

<cc1:ChartSeriesItem Name="Item 2" YValue="43">

 

 

</cc1:ChartSeriesItem>

 

 

<cc1:ChartSeriesItem Name="Item 3" YValue="76">

 

 

</cc1:ChartSeriesItem>

 

 

</Items>

 

 

</cc1:ChartSeries>

 

 

</Series>

 

 

<PlotArea>

 

 

<Appearance SeriesPalette="Colorful">

 

 

</Appearance>

 

 

</PlotArea>

 

 

<Appearance>

 

 

<FillStyle FillType="solid">

 

 

</FillStyle>

 

 

</Appearance>

 

 

</telerik:RadChart>

 

 

</div>

 

 

</form>

 

</

body>

Hello ketan,

The reason for this is in the SeriesPalette setting. It represents a set of colors and this palette is configured with gradients.  In order to override this you need to set individual appearance settings to each chart item. You can find a small example attached.
