The Wizard is organized in two main areas: the toolbar on the left (which lists pages, that in turn, are organized in two groups: Construction and Presentation), and the main pages area, where all the options are represented by tabs, and where the real-time chart’s preview is situated. And, the panel at the bottom provides quick navigation through the Wizard’s pages.

If your chart is supposed to obtain data from a dataset (the most common case), before you run the Wizard, you should assign that data source’s name to the ASPxDataWebControlBase.DataSource property, to be able to adjust all data-specific settings using the Wizard.

In addition, WebChartControl allows you to freely customize and localize the Chart Wizard. Refer to the following help topic for more information: Chart Wizard.
