Example

The following example demonstrates how to create a 2D Candle Stick chart.

  1. Create a ChartControl and set its ChartControl.Diagram property to a XYDiagram2D object. Note that the ChartControl.Diagram is a content property. You can declare a diagram in XAML after a chart control’s declaration without wrapping it in opening and closing ChartControl.Diagram tags.

  2. Add a StockSeries2D object to the Diagram.Series collection. Note that the Diagram.Series is a content property. You can declare series in XAML after a diagram’s declaration without wrapping them in opening and closing Diagram.Series tags.

  3. Use the following properties to bind the series to data:
