Need help on Bar Chart Auto Binding

Hi,

I'm using MVVM auto binding to create a Bar Chart

in my xaml,

<telerikChart:RadChart Width="200" Height="200" ItemsSource="{Binding DisplayedCapacitySeries}" Padding="3">

....

<telerik:SeriesMapping.ItemMappings>

<telerik:ItemMapping DataPointMember="YValue" FieldName="Capacity_TB"/>

<telerik:ItemMapping DataPointMember="XCategory" FieldName="CapacityName" />

</telerik:SeriesMapping.ItemMappings>

The chart was created at the first loading. However, the Chart is not refreshed when Caparity_TB is changed although INotifyPropertyChanged is implemented in the ViewModel class.

Also I want to show the legend with the CapacityName. I'm using LegendDisplayMode="DataPointLabel". However, the legend shows as "item 0 .. item 1" instead of the CapacityName on the XCategory.

Also how can I hide the legend header?

Thanks,

Chart

Update Radchart Seriesmappings and Itemsource using MVVM Backgroundworker

Hello,

I have a WPF application which incorporates the MVVM pattern. I have a viewmodel class which basically has two properties:

01.private SeriesMappingCollection _mapCollection;

02.private ArrayList _joints;

03.public SeriesMappingCollection MapCollection

04.{

05. get { return _mapCollection; }

06. set

07. {

08. if (_mapCollection != value)

09. {

10. _mapCollection = value;

11. OnPropertyChanged("MapCollection");

12. }

13. }

14.}

15.

16.public ArrayList Joints

17.{

18. get { return _joints; }

19. set

20. {

21. if (_joints != value)

22. {

23. _joints = value;

24. OnPropertyChanged("Joints");

25. }

26. }

27.}

The values of Mapcollection and Joints are set using a BackgroundWorker. When the data has been fetched, the GetAlertCompleted function is fired and the Mapcollection and Joints properties are set. This consequently fires the OnPropertyChanged() function of the view model

01.public ViewModel()

02.{

03. workerAlerts = new BackgroundWorker();

04. workerAlerts.DoWork += (o, args) => args.Result =

05. VizBackend.GetAlert.(_ipAdd,_selectedPeriod);

06.

07. workerAlerts.RunWorkerCompleted += GetAlertCompleted;

08.}

09.

10.private void GetAlertCompleted(object sender, RunWorkerCompletedEventArgs e)

11.{

12.

13. var alertData = e.Result as AlertData;

14. Joints = alertData.Joints;

15. MapCollection = alertData.MapCollection;

16. }

And in the main window I have:

01.private readonly ViewModel vm;

02.vm = (ViewModel)DataContext;

03.vm.PropertyChanged += VmPropertyChanged;

04.

05.private void VmPropertyChanged(object sender, PropertyChangedEventArgs e)

06. {

07. switch (e.PropertyName)

08. {

09. case "MapCollection":

10. this.radChart.SeriesMappings = vm.MapCollection;

11. break;

12.

13. case "Joints":

14. this.radChart.ItemsSource = vm.Joints;

15. break;

16. }

17. }

The problem is that when I assign the first property of the RadChart ( for example ItemsSource), I cant set the SeriesMappings property and I receive this error "The calling thread cannot access this object because a different thread owns it". I have no idea why this error is being raised. If I can set one property, why cant I set the second one. And it also doesnt matter in which order they are assigned. Once the first is assigned, I get an error for the second one.

I would appreciate if you could point out where the problem might be. Thanks.

binding to a list within list

I have a very simple problem. I have a list of cars and each car can further contain its name and a list of parts that consist the car. Now i want to show the cars(names) in a grid and the corresponding parts in a combobox in the same row using GridViewComboBoxColumn.
I have set the itemsource property of grid to Cars. Then i used the GridViewDataColumn's unique name to display the name and item source property of GridViewComboBoxColumn to display parts. Here is the code

<

telerik:RadGridView Name="UserListGrid" DockPanel.Dock="Top" Height="520"

ScrollMode="RealTime"

UseAlternateRowStyle="True"

AutoGenerateColumns="False"

ShowGroupPanel="False"

IsReadOnly="False"

RowIndicatorVisibility ="Visible"

CanUserFreezeColumns="False"

SelectionMode="Single"

ItemsSource="{Binding OperatorInfoItems, Mode=TwoWay}"

SelectedItem="{Binding SelectedRow, Mode=TwoWay}"

IsSynchronizedWithCurrentItem="True"

SelectionChanged="UserListGrid_SelectionChanged">

<telerik:RadGridView.Columns>

<telerik:GridViewDataColumn UniqueName="Cars" DataType="{x:Null}" Header="Names" IsVisible="True" IsFilterable="False" IsGroupable="False" IsReadOnly="True" IsSortable="False" Width="150"/>

<telerik:GridViewComboBoxColumn ItemsSource="{Binding Parts}" Header="Parts"/>

</telerik:RadGridView.Columns>

</telerik:RadGridView>

But after running the project i could only see names and a data binding error message instead of a populated combobox.
Pl tell me what to do.
