Example

The following example demonstrates how to create a ChartControl with two series of the StackedAreaSeriesView 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 stackedAreaChart = new ChartControl();

    // Create two stacked area series.
    Series series1 = new Series("Series 1", ViewType.StackedArea);
    Series series2 = new Series("Series 2", ViewType.StackedArea);

    // Add points to them.
    series1.Points.Add(new SeriesPoint(1, 10));
    series1.Points.Add(new SeriesPoint(2, 12));
    series1.Points.Add(new SeriesPoint(3, 14));
    series1.Points.Add(new SeriesPoint(4, 17));

    series2.Points.Add(new SeriesPoint(1, 15));
    series2.Points.Add(new SeriesPoint(2, 18));
    series2.Points.Add(new SeriesPoint(3, 25));
    series2.Points.Add(new SeriesPoint(4, 33));

    // Add both series to the chart.
    stackedAreaChart.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.
    ((StackedAreaSeriesView)series1.View).Transparency = 80;

    // Access the type-specific options of the diagram.
    ((XYDiagram)stackedAreaChart.Diagram).EnableAxisXZooming = true;

    // Hide the legend (if necessary).
    stackedAreaChart.Legend.Visible = false;

    // Add a title to the chart (if necessary).
    stackedAreaChart.Titles.Add(new ChartTitle());
    stackedAreaChart.Titles[0].Text = "A Stacked Area Chart";

    // Add the chart to the form.
    stackedAreaChart.Dock = DockStyle.Fill;
    this.Controls.Add(stackedAreaChart);
}
