You can change the operation mode of a sparkline editor by using the BaseEdit.StyleSettings property. To apply specific settings, assign the BaseEdit.StyleSettings property of a sparkline editor to one of the objects listed in the table below.

Operation Mode	Settings object	Description
Line	LineSparklineStyleSettings	Simple line chart. This is the default mode.
Area	AreaSparklineStyleSettings	Filled area chart. Fill color and opacity are customizable.
Bars	BarSparklineStyleSettings	Vertical bar chart.
Win-loss bars	WinLossSparklineStyleSettings	A win-loss chart.

This example demonstrates how to provide data for a standalone SparklineEdit control and adjust its main properties.
