Example
The following example demonstrates how to create a ChartControl with two series of the AreaSeriesView type, and add this chart to a form at runtime. Before proceeding with this example, create a Windows Forms Application in Visual Studio, and add all required assemblies to the References list of your project.
Then, add the following code to the Form.Load event handler.
using DevExpress.XtraCharts;
// ...
private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) {
// Create a new chart.
ChartControl areaChart = new ChartControl();
// Create two area series.
Series series1 = new Series("Series 1", ViewType.Area);
Series series2 = new Series("Series 2", ViewType.Area);
// Add points to them.
series1.Points.Add(new SeriesPoint(1, 15));
series1.Points.Add(new SeriesPoint(2, 18));
series1.Points.Add(new SeriesPoint(3, 25));
series1.Points.Add(new SeriesPoint(4, 33));
series2.Points.Add(new SeriesPoint(1, 10));
series2.Points.Add(new SeriesPoint(2, 12));
series2.Points.Add(new SeriesPoint(3, 14));
series2.Points.Add(new SeriesPoint(4, 17));
// Add both series to the chart.
areaChart.Series.AddRange(new Series[] { series1, series2 });
// Set the numerical argument scale types for the series,
// as it is qualitative, by default.
series1.ArgumentScaleType = ScaleType.Numerical;
series2.ArgumentScaleType = ScaleType.Numerical;
// Access the view-type-specific options of the series.
((AreaSeriesView)series1.View).Transparency = 80;
// Access the type-specific options of the diagram.
((XYDiagram)areaChart.Diagram).EnableAxisXZooming = true;
// Hide the legend (optional).
areaChart.Legend.Visible = false;
// Add the chart to the form.
areaChart.Dock = DockStyle.Fill;
this.Controls.Add(areaChart);
