Example
The following example demonstrates how to create a ChartControl with a series of the PointSeriesView type, and add this chart to a form at runtime. Before proceeding with this example, first create a Windows Forms Application in Visual Studio, and include all necessary assemblies to the References list of your project.
Then, add the following code to the Form.Load event handler.
using System;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using DevExpress.XtraCharts;
// ...
private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) {
// Create a new chart.
ChartControl pointChart = new ChartControl();
// Create a point series.
Series series1 = new Series("Series 1", ViewType.Point);
// Set the numerical argument scale type for the series,
// as it is qualitative, by default.
series1.ArgumentScaleType = ScaleType.Numerical;
// Add points to it.
series1.Points.Add(new SeriesPoint(1, 10));
series1.Points.Add(new SeriesPoint(2, 22));
series1.Points.Add(new SeriesPoint(3, 14));
series1.Points.Add(new SeriesPoint(4, 27));
series1.Points.Add(new SeriesPoint(5, 15));
series1.Points.Add(new SeriesPoint(6, 28));
series1.Points.Add(new SeriesPoint(7, 15));
series1.Points.Add(new SeriesPoint(8, 33));
// Add the series to the chart.
pointChart.Series.Add(series1);
// Access the view-type-specific options of the series.
PointSeriesView myView1 = (PointSeriesView)series1.View;
myView1.PointMarkerOptions.Kind = MarkerKind.Star;
myView1.PointMarkerOptions.StarPointCount = 5;
myView1.PointMarkerOptions.Size = 20;
// Access the type-specific options of the diagram.
((XYDiagram)pointChart.Diagram).EnableAxisXZooming = true;
// Hide the legend (if necessary).
pointChart.Legend.Visible = false;
// Add a title to the chart (if necessary).
pointChart.Titles.Add(new ChartTitle());
pointChart.Titles[0].Text = "A Point Chart";
// Add the chart to the form.
pointChart.Dock = DockStyle.Fill;
this.Controls.Add(pointChart);
