• Aug 01, 2019

The following example demonstrates how to hide certain property tabs on a Chart Wizard‘s page at runtime. This technique is useful to prevent the end-users from modifying particular chart settings.

C#

using DevExpress.XtraCharts.Wizard;
// ...

private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) {
    // Create a new Wizard.
    ChartWizard wizard = new ChartWizard(this.chartControl1);

    // Obtain a Data page.
    WizardDataPage page = wizard.DataPage;

    // Hide the tabs related to a data source on the Data page.
    page.HiddenPageTabs.Add(DataPageTab.AutoCreatedSeries);
    page.HiddenPageTabs.Add(DataPageTab.SeriesBinding);

    // Invoke the Wizard window.
    wizard.ShowDialog();
}

VB.NET

Imports DevExpress.XtraCharts.Wizard;
' ...

Private Sub button1_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) _
Handles button1.Click
    ' Create a new Wizard.
    Dim wizard As New ChartWizard(Me.chartControl1)

    ' Obtain a Data page.
    Dim page As WizardDataPage = wizard.DataPage

    ' Hide the tabs related to a data source on the Data page.
    page.HiddenPageTabs.Add(DataPageTab.AutoCreatedSeries)
    page.HiddenPageTabs.Add(DataPageTab.SeriesBinding)

    ' Invoke the Wizard window.
    wizard.ShowDialog()
End Sub
