Namespace: DevExpress.Xpf.Charts

Assembly: DevExpress.Xpf.Charts.v20.1.dll

NuGet Packages: DevExpress.WindowsDesktop.Wpf.Charts, DevExpress.Wpf.Charts

Declaration

C#

VB.NET

Public Property ColorEach As Boolean

Property Value

Type	Description
Boolean	true to paint each point marker with a different color; otherwise, false.

Remarks

Use the ColorEach property to control whether data point markers are drawn in different colors.

If the ColorEach property is enabled, colors for point markers are taken from the palette specified via the ChartControlBase.Palette property.

Example

The following example demonstrates how to create a 2D Point chart. Assign the ChartControl.Diagram property to XYDiagram2D and add a PointSeries2D object to the Diagram.Series collection.
