How to: Invoke the Chart Designer at Runtime

• Jun 07, 2019

To show the Chart Designer to end-users, create an instance of the ChartDesigner class using the constructor that receives an ChartControl object as a parameter. Then, call the ChartDesigner.Show method.

Note

Note that the DevExpress.Charts.Designer.v23.2 assembly should be added to a project.

MainWindow.xaml.vb

Private Sub btnChartDesigner_ItemClick(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As ItemClickEventArgs)
    Dim designer As New ChartDesigner(chartControl)
    designer.Show(Me)
End Sub

MainWindow.xaml.cs

private void btnChartDesigner_ItemClick(object sender, ItemClickEventArgs e) {
    ChartDesigner designer = new ChartDesigner(chartControl);
    designer.Show(this);
}
