Namespace: DevExpress.XtraCharts

Assembly: DevExpress.XtraCharts.v20.1.dll

NuGet Packages: DevExpress.Charts, DevExpress.WindowsDesktop.Charts

Declaration

public sealed class Shadow :
    ChartElement

Remarks

The Shadow class is used to contain the shadow settings. The properties exposed by this class allow you to customize the shadow color (Shadow.Color), size (Shadow.Size) and visibility (Shadow.Visible).

Pane_Shadow

An object of the Shadow type can be accessed via the Shadow properties of different chart elements (for instance, the legend‘s Legend.Shadow property, a pane‘s XYDiagramPaneBase.Shadow property, a label’s SeriesLabelBase.Shadow property, etc).

Example

This example demonstrates the possibilities of customizing a chart diagram‘s panes‘ appearance at runtime.

XYDiagramPane myPane = new XYDiagramPane("The Pane's Name");

myPane.BackColor = Color.Aqua;
myPane.FillStyle.FillMode = FillMode.Empty;

myPane.BorderVisible = true;
myPane.BorderColor = Color.Blue;

myPane.Shadow.Visible = true;
myPane.Shadow.Color = Color.LightGray;
myPane.Shadow.Size = 2;
