SeriesSeriesPointsAction Class

Animates the 3D chart’s series points.

Namespace: DevExpress.Xpf.Charts

Assembly: DevExpress.Xpf.Charts.v18.2.dll

Declaration

public sealed class SeriesSeriesPointsAction :
    SeriesAnimationAction

Remarks

The SeriesSeriesPointsAction object can be accessed via the SeriesAnimation.Actions property.

Example

The following example demonstrates how to animate series points, so that their values are dynamically changed when displaying a chart.

To accomplish this, it is first necessary to add a trigger to a chart’s Triggers collection, which will start the Year1998Animation in response to the chart’s Loaded event. Then, to the ChartControl.AnimationRecords collection, add a ChartAnimationRecord with a SeriesAnimation object.
