How to: Assign Different Models for Series and Point Markers

• Jun 07, 2019

This example demonstrates how to specify different models for all series.

To accomplish this, define models in your Window’s Resources and then assign them to the appropriate series via their Model property.

MainWindow.xaml

<Window x:Class="PredefinedModels.MainWindow"
        xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
        xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
        xmlns:dxc="http://schemas.devexpress.com/winfx/2008/xaml/charts"
        Title="MainWindow" Height="350" Width="525" >
    <!--region #Series and marker models.-->
    <Window.Resources>
        <ResourceDictionary>
            <dxc:CrossMarker2DModel x:Key="areaModel" />
            <dxc:FlatBar2DModel x:Key="barModel" />
            <dxc:CircleMarker2DModel x:Key="lineModel" />
        </ResourceDictionary>
    </Window.Resources>
    <!--endregion #Series and marker models.-->
