Declaration

C#
VB.NET

public abstract class XYDiagramPaneBase :
    ChartElementNamed,
    IDisposable,
    IZoomablePane,
    IPane,
    IBackground,
    IDockTarget,
    ISupportTextAntialiasing,

Public MustInherit Class XYDiagramPaneBase
    Inherits ChartElementNamed
    Implements IDisposable,
               IZoomablePane,
               IPane,
               IBackground,
               IDockTarget,

               IXYDiagramPane,
               ILinearLayoutItem,
               IGridLayoutItem

The following members return XYDiagramPaneBase objects:

Remarks

The XYDiagramPaneBase class contains specific settings which can be used to customize the XYDiagramPane and XYDiagramDefaultPane objects.

For more information, refer to Panes.

Example

This example demonstrates how to display a chart’s series in separate panes.

For this example to work correctly, do the following.

Start MS Visual Studio, and create a new Windows Forms Application, or open an existing one.
Include all necessary assemblies to the References list of your project.
Open the Solution Explorer window (e.g. by pressing CTRL+ALT+L), right-click the WindowsApplication1 item and in the invoked menu, point to Add and click Existing Item…. Then, locate the gsp.mdb file (it is shipped with XtraCharts suite and located in the directory, where you installed DevExpress demos) and click Add. In the displayed dialog, select the GSP table of this database.

A dataset (named gspDataSet) is automatically created after performing the above steps.
Drop a button onto the form and add the following code to the Button1.Click event handler.

        }

            xyView.Pane = secondPane;
