TcxGridDBChartSeries Class

A series in a data-aware Chart View.

Declaration

TcxGridDBChartSeries = class(
    TcxGridChartSeries
)

Remarks

Series and data groups represent chart items in Chart Views. Data groups are used to create a hierarchy of data levels which determine the categories into which series values are grouped/aggregated, and provide the drill-down functionality. Series values are used to graphically represent data in the chart. Series values are grouped into categories to represent data at a particular level of detail.

Compared with data groups, the default categories provide a simple classification of series values without aggregation. In terms of databases, the default category stands for a data column which uniquely identifies and refers to the values (series values) within a data record.

Each series in data-aware Chart Views is represented by an instance of the TcxGridDBChartSeries class. This class provides the same abilities as its ancestor class and also allows you to bind a series to a specific data field in a dataset via the DataBinding.FieldName property of the DataBinding object.

To access all series created in a data-aware Chart View, use the View’s Series collection.
