Add a Chart to a Project

Follow the steps below to add the Chart component to an application:

  1. Use a DevExpress Project Template to create a new Blazor Server or Blazor WebAssembly application. If you use a Microsoft project template or already have a Blazor project, configure your project to incorporate DevExpress Blazor components.
  2. Add the <DxChart></DxChart> markup to a .razor file.
  3. Bind the component to data.
  4. Configure the component: add series and axes, specify a legend, titles, tooltips, and so on (see the sections below).

Read Tutorial: Get Started with Charts Watch Video: Get Started with Charts

Bind to Data

Use the Data property to specify an IEnumerable<T> data source, and the series ArgumentField and ValueField properties to specify data source fields that contain arguments and values for chart points. For a sample data source, refer to our GitHub repository.

Note

The Chart operates in bound mode only.

<DxChart Data="@SalesData">
    <DxChartLineSeries Name="2017" 
                       Filter="@((SaleInfo s) => s.Date.Year == 2017)"
                       ArgumentField="@(s => s.City)" 
                       ValueField="@(s => s.Amount)" 
                       SummaryMethod="Enumerable.Sum"/>
    <DxChartLineSeries Name="2018" 
                       Filter="@((SaleInfo s) => s.Date.Year == 2018)"
                       ArgumentField="@(s => s.City)" 
                       ValueField="@(s => s.Amount)" 
                       SummaryMethod="Enumerable.Sum"/>
    <DxChartLineSeries Name="2019" 
                       Filter="@((SaleInfo s) => s.Date.Year == 2019)"
                       ArgumentField="@(s => s.City)" 
                       ValueField="@(s => s.Amount)" 
                       SummaryMethod="Enumerable.Sum"/>
    <DxChartLegend Position="RelativePosition.Outside" HorizontalAlignment="HorizontalAlignment.Right" />
</DxChart>

@code {
    IEnumerable<SaleInfo> SalesData;

    protected override async Task OnInitializedAsync() {
        SalesData = await Sales.GetSalesAsync();
    }
}

Chart Line Series

If the data source collection implements the INotifyCollectionChanged interface, the chart is updated automatically each time the collection changes. Otherwise, use the RefreshData method to reload data and redraw the component.

To re-render the Chart area without a data reload, call the RedrawAsync method. The chart also redraws itself when a user resizes the component’s root container. Set the RedrawOnResize property to false to disable this behavior. To track the moment when the chart rendering is finished and the component is completely loaded, handle the Rendered event.

Series

A chart series is a collection of related data points. You can specify common settings for all chart series, or add series to the component’s markup and configure series-specific settings individually. Refer to the following topic for more information about available series types: Series Types in Blazor Charts.

If you have several series, place them at the same chart hierarchy level. Note that DxChart renders series based on their order in the chart’s markup. If you need to change the rendering order, place the series in the corresponding positions in the markup.

Common Settings

Use the DxChartCommonSeries object to specify common settings for all chart series. The SeriesType property specifies the chart type.

Note

We do not recommend that you use the SeriesType property to generate series that require assigning specific fields (for example, DxChartBubbleSeries). To generate such series, use the SeriesTemplate property.

<DxChart Data="@SalesData">
    <DxChartCommonSeries NameField="@((SaleInfo s) => s.Date.Year)"
                         ArgumentField="@((SaleInfo s) => s.City)"
                         ValueField="@((SaleInfo s) => s.Amount)"
                         SeriesType="ChartSeriesType.Bar"
                         SummaryMethod="Enumerable.Max">
    </DxChartCommonSeries>
</DxChart>

@code {
    IEnumerable<SaleInfo> SalesData;

    protected override async Task OnInitializedAsync() {
        SalesData = await Sales.GetSalesAsync();
    }
}

Chart Bar Series Series

Run Demo: Charts - Autogenerated Series

The table below lists common settings for chart series:

Member

Description

SummaryMethod

Specifies the method that calculates summaries for points with the same argument value.

ArgumentField

Specifies a data source field that stores arguments for series values.

Filter

Specifies a filter that is applied to data source objects.

NameField

Specifies a data source field that is used to group data by series.

PaneField

Specifies which data source field contains pane names for chart series.

BreakOnEmptyPoints

Specifies whether the series should break on points with null values.

SeriesTemplate

Specifies a series template.

ValueField

Specifies a data source field that contains values for series points.

Note

Individual series settings have priority over common series settings.

Type-Specific Settings

Type-specific series have their own settings. For example, bubble series display chart data as points with different sizes called “bubbles”. To specify a data source field that defines bubble sizes, use the DxChartBubbleSeries.SizeField property. You can also use MinBubbleSize and MaxBubbleSize properties to specify diameters of the biggest and smallest “bubbles” in the series.

@using System.Drawing

<DxChart Data="@SalesData">
    <DxChartBubbleSeries Name="United States" 
                         Filter="@((SaleInfo s) => s.Country == "United States")"
                         ArgumentField="@(s => s.Date.DayOfWeek.ToString())"
                         ValueField="@(s => s.Date.Year)"
                         SizeField="@(s => s.Amount)"
                         Color="@(Color.FromArgb(208, 208, 208))"
                         SummaryMethod="Enumerable.Max" />
    <DxChartBubbleSeries Name="Canada" 
                         Filter="@((SaleInfo s) => s.Country == "Canada")"
                         ArgumentField="@(s => s.Date.DayOfWeek.ToString())"
                         ValueField="@(s => s.Date.Year)"
                         SizeField="@(s => s.Amount)"
                         Color="@(Color.FromArgb(252, 58, 48))"
                         SummaryMethod="Enumerable.Max" />

Charts Specific Series Settings Bubble

Run Demo: Charts - Bubble Series

For line series, you can use the DxChartSeriesPoint component to customize the point’s color, size, symbol, and visibility. These settings apply to all points in a series. To override individual point settings, handle the chart’s CustomizeSeriesPoint event.

@inject WeatherForecastService ForecastService

<DxChart Data="@ChartData" CustomizeSeriesPoint="@PreparePointColor">
    <DxChartLineSeries AggregationMethod="@(i => (int)i.Average())"
                       Color="@System.Drawing.Color.Gray"
                       ValueField="@((WeatherForecast i) => i.TemperatureF)"
                       ArgumentField="@(i => i.Date.Date)"
                       Name="Temperature, F">
        <DxChartSeriesPoint Symbol="ChartPointSymbol.Polygon" Color="@System.Drawing.Color.Gray" Size="25" />
    </DxChartLineSeries>
</DxChart>

@code {
    WeatherForecast[] ChartData;

    protected override async Task OnInitializedAsync() {
        ChartData = await ForecastService.GetForecastAsync();
    }

    protected void PreparePointColor(ChartSeriesPointCustomizationSettings pointSettings) {
        double value = (double)pointSettings.Point.Value;
        if (value > 75)
            pointSettings.PointAppearance.Color = System.Drawing.Color.Red;
        else if (value < 25)
            pointSettings.PointAppearance.Color = System.Drawing.Color.Blue;
    }
}

Charts - Series point

For the line series and constant line you can specify the dash style. For example, make the line dashed, dotted, or apply one of the predefined patterns.

The following example defines a dashed line series:

<DxChart Data="@SalesData">
    <DxChartLineSeries Name="Total Sales"
                       ArgumentField="@((SaleInfo s) => s.City)"
                       ValueField="@((SaleInfo s) => s.Amount)"
                       SummaryMethod="Enumerable.Sum"
                       DashStyle="ChartDashStyle.Dash">
    </DxChartLineSeries>
</DxChart>

Line Series Dash Style

Series Labels

Add a DxChartSeriesLabel object to series markup to configure labels for series data points. To display series labels, set the DxChartSeriesLabel.Visible property to true:

<DxChart Data="forecasts">
    <DxChartLineSeries ArgumentField="@((WeatherForecast v) => v.Date)"
                       ValueField="@((WeatherForecast v) => v.TemperatureC)">
        <DxChartSeriesLabel Visible="true" />
    </DxChartLineSeries>
    <DxChartLegend Visible="false"></DxChartLegend>
</DxChart>

Show Series Labels

Run Demo: Charts - Series Label Customization

All settings apply to all labels in the series. To override individual label settings, handle the chart’s CustomizeSeriesPoint event and use the event argument’s PointLabel property.

For more information on how to configure series labels, refer to the following topic: Labels in Blazor Charts.

Error Bars

Error bars indicate measurement precision or uncertainty. They display a possible value range next to a series point. Error bars can display fixed values or percentages, statistical function values, or error values obtained from data source fields.

Charts - Error bars

Run Demo: Charts - Error Bars

Refer to the DxChartSeriesValueErrorBar class description for more information and an example.

Axes

Primary X and Y axes are automatically created based on the data type of the first series. The DxChartArgumentAxis class defines the X-axis, and the DxChartValueAxis class defines the Y-axis. The Visible property specifies an axis visibility. The DxChartAxisTitle object specifies the axis title.

Axis labels are displayed on the chart’s X-axis. The <DxChart> uses smart label management to ensure that labels do not overlap. The Format property specifies the axis label’s format.

If the data range or format is series-specific, each series can use its own Y-axis. The number of Y-axes in a chart is not limited.

<DxChart Data="@SalesData">
    <DxChartTitle Text="Sales amount" />
    <DxChartLegend Position="RelativePosition.Outside" />
    <DxChartValueAxis>
        <DxChartAxisLabel Format="ChartElementFormat.Percent()"></DxChartAxisLabel>
        <DxChartAxisTitle Text="Amount"></DxChartAxisTitle>
    </DxChartValueAxis>
    <DxChartValueAxis Name="TotalAxis" Alignment="ChartAxisAlignment.Far">
        <DxChartAxisTitle Text="Total Amount"></DxChartAxisTitle>
    </DxChartValueAxis>
    <DxChartArgumentAxis>
        <DxChartAxisTitle Text="Cities"></DxChartAxisTitle>
    </DxChartArgumentAxis>
    @* ... *@
</DxChart>

Charts Two Value Axes

Refer to the following topic for more information about axes and their visual elements: Axes in Blazor Charts.

Axis Labels

Use the DxChartAxisLabel component to show and configure labels for axis ticks. To specify axis label visibility, use the DxChartAxisLabel.Visible property.

DxChart allows you to specify how to arrange axis labels. When they overlap, use the Overlap property to rearrange such labels. Based on the Overlap property value, specify the RotationAngle or StaggeringSpacing property.

The following example uses the drop-down menu to rearrange overlapping axis labels.

<DxChart Data="@GetData()" Width="100%">
    <DxChartTitle Text="Population by Country 2023" CssClass="mb-1"/>
    <DxChartLegend Visible="false"/>
    <DxChartLineSeries ArgumentField="@((DataPoint s) => s.Country)"
                       ValueField="@((DataPoint s) => s.Value)"/>
    @* ... *@
    <DxChartArgumentAxis>
        <DxChartAxisLabel Overlap="@CurrentOverlapMode"
                          WordWrap="ChartWordWrap.None"/>
    </DxChartArgumentAxis>
</DxChart>

@code {
    ChartAxisLabelOverlap CurrentOverlapMode = ChartAxisLabelOverlap.Stagger;
    List<DataPoint> GetData() {
        var result = new List<DataPoint>(14);
        // ...
        return result;
    }
    public class DataPoint {
        public string Country { get; set; }
        public int Value { get; set; }
        public DataPoint(string country, int value) {
            Country = country;
            Value = value;
        }
    }
}

Legend

A chart’s legend lists all chart series. The DxChartLegend component implements the chart legend. Use the Visible property to specify the legend’s visibility and the Position property to specify the legend’s position. The chart obtains a legend item’s text from a series Name property.

Enable the AllowToggleSeries property to display checkboxes that toggle the visibility of individual series.

<DxChart Data="@SalesData">

Data Aggregation

The <DxChart> component can use different aggregate methods to group data and decrease the number of visible points. This feature allows you to optimize chart performance.

Data aggregation is available for the X-axis. The chart splits the X-axis into intervals, aggregates data for each interval and shows the result values as series points. When users zoom the chart, it re-aggregates data.

Data Aggregation

To enable aggregation, add a DxChartAggregationSettings object to the markup and set its Enabled property to true. To specify an aggregation method, use the Method property (the default method is Auto).

Data Aggregation

Run Demo: Charts - Zoom and Pan

Note

You can also use summary methods to optimize chart performance.

Data Summaries

The Chart component can use a summary method to group data. This method calculates summaries for points with the same argument value, and the chart shows the resulting values as series points. This feature allows you to decrease the number of visible points and to optimize chart performance.

Note that the chart calculates summaries when it loads data and does not re-calculate them when users zoom the chart.

Data Summaries

You can specify a common summary method for all chart series (DxChartCommonSeries.SummaryMethod) or an individual method for each series (DxChartSeries.SummaryMethod).

}

Summary Methods

Note

You can also use aggregation methods to optimize chart performance.

Multiple Panes

The <DxChart> component allows you to create charts with multiple panes under each other. A pane (DxChartPane) can display one or more series and can share its argument axis with other panes. To specify the pane where a series is displayed, use the series Pane property. You can also use the DefaultPane property to specify the pane that displays all axes and series with unspecified Pane property.

You can specify the pane Height in pixels or percentages.

<DxChart Data="@SalesData" Height="500px">
    <DxChartTitle Text="Sales amount" />
    <DxChartLegend Position="RelativePosition.Outside" VerticalAlignment="VerticalEdge.Bottom" />
    <DxChartPane Name="Pane1" Height="60%" />
    <DxChartPane Name="Pane2" />
    <DxChartBarSeries Name="2018"
                      Filter="@((SaleInfo s) => s.Date.Year == 2018)"
                      SummaryMethod="Enumerable.Sum"
                      Pane="Pane1"
                      ArgumentField="@(s => s.City)"
                      ValueField="@(s => s.Amount)" />
    <DxChartBarSeries Name="2019"
                      Filter="@((SaleInfo s) => s.Date.Year == 2019)"
                      SummaryMethod="Enumerable.Sum"
                      Pane="Pane2"
                      ArgumentField="@(s => s.City)"
                      ValueField="@(s => s.Amount)" />
</DxChart>

Selection

The <DxChart> component allows you to select series and points. To enable series and point selection at the chart level, specify the chart’s SeriesSelectionMode and PointSelectionMode properties. You can choose between the following modes: None, Single, and Multiple.

Different modes of chart selection are shown

Point Selection

You can define how discrete series points (for example, bars) and continuous series point markers (line and area series point markers) react on selection. The Chart component ships with the following selection modes: None, Point, AllPoints, and AllPointsForArgument. Use the following properties to select one of the selection modes:

Series Selection

You can allow a user to select an entire continuous series (for example, lines and areas). In this case, a user should click a line or an area segment. The following selection modes are available: None, Series, and SeriesAndAllPoints. To enable a desired selection mode, use the properties below:

Track Selected Item Changes

Handle the DxChart.SelectionChanged event to respond to user selection.

Reset Selection

Call the DxChartBase.ClearSelectionAsync method to deselect all selected series and points.

Size

Use the chart’s Width and Height properties to change the component’s size. You can also use the RedrawOnResize property to specify whether to redraw the chart when its container size changes.

<DxChart Data="@forecasts" Width="800px" Height="400px">
    <DxChartBarSeries ArgumentField="@((WeatherForecast i) => i.Date)"
                      ValueField="@((WeatherForecast i) => i.Precipitation)"
                      Name="Precipitation">
    </DxChartBarSeries>
    <DxChartBarSeries ArgumentField="@((WeatherForecast i) => i.Date)"
                      ValueField="@((WeatherForecast i) => i.TemperatureC)"
                      Name="Temperature">
    </DxChartBarSeries>
</DxChart>

Chart size modification

Appearance Customization

Use the chart’s CssClass property to customize the chart’s appearance. The following snippet changes the chart’s background color and font size:

<style>
    .my-style {
        background-color: lavender;
        font-size: 16px;
    }
</style>

<DxChart Data="@SalesData" CssClass="my-style">
    <DxChartCommonSeries NameField="@((SaleInfo s) => s.Date.Year)"
                         ArgumentField="@(s => s.City)"
                         ValueField="@(s => s.Amount)"
                         SummaryMethod="Enumerable.Sum"
                         SeriesType="BarSeriesType.Value">
    </DxChartCommonSeries>
    <DxChartLegend Position="RelativePosition.Outside" HorizontalAlignment="HorizontalAlignment.Right" />
</DxChart>

Chart CSS Class

You can also apply CSS styles to chart elements:

For more information, refer to the following help topic: CSS Classes.

Font Customization

Use the DxChartFont object to customize fonts for DxChartAxisTitle, DxChartAxisLabel, DxChartSeriesLabel, or DxChartConstantLineLabel.

The following properties are available:

The code snippet below customizes font settings of a series label:

<DxChart Data="@WeatherForecasts"
         CustomizeSeriesPoint="@PreparePointLabel"
         Width="100%">
    <DxChartTitle Text="Annual Weather in New York" />
    <DxChartLineSeries SummaryMethod="@(i => i.Average())"
                       ValueField="@((DetailedWeatherSummary i) => i.AverageTemperatureF)"
                       ArgumentField="@(i => new DateTime(2000, i.Date.Month, 1))"
                       Name="Temperature, F"
                       Filter="@((DetailedWeatherSummary  i) => i.City == "NEW YORK")">
        <DxChartSeriesLabel Position="RelativePosition.Outside"
                            FormatPattern="{argument:MMMM}: {value:#.##} °F">
            <DxChartSeriesLabelConnector Visible="true"
                                         Width="3" />
            <DxChartFont Size="14" Weight="600" />
        </DxChartSeriesLabel>
    </DxChartLineSeries>
    <DxChartLegend Visible="false" />
    <DxChartValueAxis>
        <DxChartAxisTitle Text="Temperature, °F" />
    </DxChartValueAxis>
    <DxChartArgumentAxis>
        <DxChartAxisLabel Format="ChartElementFormat.Month" />
    </DxChartArgumentAxis>
</DxChart>

@code {
    IEnumerable<DetailedWeatherSummary> WeatherForecasts;

    protected override async Task OnInitializedAsync() {
        WeatherForecasts = await WeatherSummaryDataProvider.GetDataAsync();
    }

    protected void PreparePointLabel(ChartSeriesPointCustomizationSettings pointSettings) {
        double value = (double)pointSettings.Point.Value;
        if (value > 50 && value < 70)
            pointSettings.PointLabel.Visible = true;
    }
}

Visualize Pivot Grid Data

You can link <DxChart> to the DxPivotGrid<T> component as follows:

  1. Create a method that asynchronously loads data from an IEnumerable<T> data source (Sales.Load() in this example).
  2. Create a DxPivotGridDataProvider<T> object based on the created method.
  3. Bind the Chart to the provider object. Use the ChartDataSource property.
  4. Bind the Pivot Grid to the provider object. Use the PivotGridDataSource property.
<DxChart Data="@(PivotGridDataProvider.ChartDataSource)">
    <DxChartCommonSeries NameField="@((IChartDataItem s) => s.SeriesName)"
                         ArgumentField="@(s => s.Argument)"
                         ValueField="@(s => s.Value)"
                         SeriesType="ChartSeriesType.Bar" />
</DxChart>

<DxPivotGrid Data="@(PivotGridDataProvider.PivotGridDataSource)">
    <DxPivotGridField Field="@nameof(SaleInfo.Region)" SortOrder="PivotGridSortOrder.Ascending" 
        Area="PivotGridFieldArea.Row"></DxPivotGridField>
    <DxPivotGridField Field="@nameof(SaleInfo.Country)" Area="PivotGridFieldArea.Row"></DxPivotGridField>
    <DxPivotGridField Field="@nameof(SaleInfo.City)" Area="PivotGridFieldArea.Row"></DxPivotGridField>
    <DxPivotGridField Field="@nameof(SaleInfo.Date)" GroupInterval="PivotGridGroupInterval.Year" 
        Area="PivotGridFieldArea.Column" Caption="Year"> </DxPivotGridField>
    <DxPivotGridField Field="@nameof(SaleInfo.OrderId)" Caption="Count" Area="PivotGridFieldArea.Data" 
        SummaryType="PivotGridSummaryType.Count"> </DxPivotGridField>
</DxPivotGrid>

@code {
    DxPivotGridDataProvider<SaleInfo> PivotGridDataProvider = DxPivotGridDataProvider<SaleInfo>.Create(Sales.Load());
}

The Chart shows data from the Pivot Grid’s lowest expanded level. The Chart is updated when a user expands or collapses rows/columns in the Pivot Grid.
