Gets the value from a datasource assigned to the ChartRangeControlClientDataProvider.DataSource property of the chart range control client (numeric or date-time).

Namespace: DevExpress.XtraEditors

Assembly: DevExpress.XtraEditors.v24.1.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.Win.Navigation

Declaration

public object DataSourceValue { get; }

Property Value

Type Description
Object

An object representing the value contained in the specified datasource. Null if the value is not found in the datasource.

Remarks

Use this property to obtain the data source’s value.

Example

This example shows how to adjust series of a numeric chart range control client using the ChartRangeControlClientBase.CustomizeSeries event. This event occurs before a series of the chart range control client is drawn in the range control’s viewport.

Use the ClientDataSourceProviderCustomizeSeriesEventArgs.View property to change the series view of the chart range control client. In addition, you can access the data source value using the ClientDataSourceProviderCustomizeSeriesEventArgs.DataSourceValue property.
