Example

This example shows how to create a 2D Point chart and configure its titles, label format, axes, and appearance.

Follow the steps below to create a 2D Point chart:

1. Create a ChartControl and set its DataContext property to a ViewModel.

2. Set the chart’s Diagram property to an XYDiagram2D object.

3. Add a PointSeries2D to the diagram’s Series collection.

4. Specify the following series parameters to bind the series to data:

   • Series.DataSource
   • Series.ArgumentDataMember
   • Series.ValueDataMember

   For more information about series, refer to the following topic: Series.

5. Set the Series.LabelsVisibility property to True to display point labels. Specify the SeriesLabel.TextPattern property to format labels.

6. Use the XYDiagram2D.AxisX and XYDiagram2D.AxisY properties to customize axes (scale options, title, and labels). Refer to the following help topic for more information about axes: Axes.

7. Add a Title object to the ChartControl.Titles collection, and specify title content. Refer to the following topic for more information about titles: Chart Titles.
