Example

This example shows how to use arrays of string and numeric values to create a heatmap:

Follow the steps below to create a heatmap:

1. Add the HeatmapControl to the Form.
2. Create a HeatmapMatrixAdapter object and assign it to the HeatmapControl.DataAdapter property.
3. Use the adapter’s XArguments and YArguments properties to populate the heatmap with x- and y-arguments that are displayed along x- and y-axes.
4. Assign a two-dimensional array of double values to the adapter’s Values property.
5. Create a HeatmapRangeColorProvider object and assign it to the heatmap’s ColorProvider property. The HeatmapRangeColorProvider paints cells based on the value range to which the cell value belongs.
6. Add a HeatmapTitle to the heatmap’s Titles collection. Specify the title’s Text property.
7. Use the heatmap’s Label property to configure cell label options. This example shows how to configure label text format.
