SegmentBasedFillColorizer.SegmentColorizer Property

Gets or sets the line segment colorizer that specifies colors used to paint area segments.

Namespace: DevExpress.XamarinForms.Charts

Assembly: DevExpress.XamarinForms.Charts.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.XamarinForms.Charts

Declaration

public ISegmentColorizer SegmentColorizer { get; set; }

Property Value

Type	Description
ISegmentColorizer	A GradientPointBasedSegmentColorizer object.

Example

In this example, the area chart visualizes the visible light spectrum.

1. Create a data source - a list of objects that define data points with numeric arguments (wavelength) and values (intensity).

2. Create a colorizer class (LightSpectorColorizer, in this example) that implements the ICustomPointColorizer interface.
   Implement the GetColor method to return a data point’s color based on a ColoredPointInfo object passed to the method as a parameter. Use the ColoredPointInfo.NumericArgument property to obtain the data point’s argument value.
   This class should also implement the ICustomPointColorizer.GetLegendItemProvider method and the ILegendItemProvider interface to specify legend items that show wavelength colors.
