Remarks

When you wish to create a different visual appearance for the Chart Wizard, you may involve the Look And Feel and Skinning. It enables you to select visual styles and skins.

The following code snippet shows how to use this approach.

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

ChartWizard wiz = new ChartWizard(chartControl1);

// Create a new look and feel object.
UserLookAndFeel MyLookAndFeel_for_Wizard = new UserLookAndFeel(wiz);

// Change styles, skins or whatever.
MyLookAndFeel_for_Wizard.SetWindowsXPStyle();

// Invoke the styled Wizard.
wiz.ShowDialog(MyLookAndFeel_for_Wizard);

To learn more about the Look And Feel concept refer to the Look And Feel and Skinning topic.
