  • ChartData.FromRange(CellRange) Method

    Converts cell values to chart data for cells in the specified range.

    Namespace: DevExpress.Spreadsheet.Charts

    Assembly: DevExpress.Spreadsheet.v25.1.Core.dll

    NuGet Package: DevExpress.Spreadsheet.Core

    Declaration

    public static ChartData FromRange(
        CellRange value
    )

    Parameters

    Name Type Description
    value CellRange

    A CellRange object that is the cell range of the worksheet.

    Returns

    Type Description
    ChartData

    A ChartData object.

    Remarks

    The example below demonstrates how to add data series to a chart and change the cell range containing data for a specific series.

    The code uses the SeriesCollection.Add method to create a series and add it to the ChartObject.Series collection. To specify series values contained in the worksheet range, create a ChartData object using the ChartData.FromRange method and assign it to the Series.Values property.

    The ChartText.SetReference method is used to link the Series.SeriesName to the content of the worksheet cell.

    View Example

    Worksheet worksheet = workbook.Worksheets["chartTask3"];
    workbook.Worksheets.ActiveWorksheet = worksheet;
    
    // Create a chart and specify its location.
    Chart chart = worksheet.Charts.Add(ChartType.ColumnClustered);
    chart.TopLeftCell = worksheet.Cells["H2"];
    chart.BottomRightCell = worksheet.Cells["N14"];
    // Add series using a worksheet range as the data source.
    chart.Series.Add(worksheet["D2"], worksheet["B3:B6"], worksheet["D3:D6"]);
    chart.Series.Add(worksheet["F2"], worksheet["B3:B6"], worksheet["F3:F6"]);
    
    // Change the data range for the series values.
    chart.Series[1].Values = ChartData.FromRange(worksheet["E3:E6"]);
    
    // Specify the cell that is the source for the series name.
    chart.Series[1].SeriesName.SetReference(worksheet["E2"]);
