Bubble/Bar/Column Chart Shadows
posted

Hello,

I am working on a mechanism that allows a user to turn individual series on/off in a chart. I have the logic in place to do this, and to accomplish the effect I am setting the opacity of fill and stroke to 0. The problem I am encountering with a few chart types is that some border-like effects seem to linger, and I'm having difficulty identifying what they are. Please see the following image, and thank you for your time.

    Hi Will,

    It looks like that border effect is actually an ellipse with a LinearGradientBrush set on it.  It's part of the default style for the BubbleChartDataPointTemplate.  You can achieve what you're looking for by changing the default style of the BubbleChartDataPointTemplate to this:

    <Style TargetType="igChart:BubbleChartDataPointTemplate">
                <Setter Property="Template">
                    <Setter.Value>
                        <ControlTemplate TargetType="igChart:BubbleChartDataPointTemplate">
                            <Grid x:Name="RootElement">
                                <Ellipse Fill="{TemplateBinding Fill}" Opacity="0" Stroke="{TemplateBinding Stroke}"/>
                                <Ellipse Stroke="{x:Null}" Opacity="0">
                                    <Ellipse.Fill>
                                        <RadialGradientBrush
    		    								Center="0.479,0.099"
    		    								GradientOrigin="0.479,0.099"
    		    								RadiusX="0.6000000000000001"
    		    								RadiusY="0.6000000000000001">
                                            <RadialGradientBrush.GradientStops>
                                                <GradientStopCollection>
                                                    <GradientStop
    		    											Color="#FFFFFFFF"
    		    											Offset="0" />
    
    
    
                                                    <GradientStop
    		    											Color="#19FFFFFF"
    		    											Offset="1" />
                                                </GradientStopCollection>
                                            </RadialGradientBrush.GradientStops>
                                        </RadialGradientBrush>
                                    </Ellipse.Fill>
                                </Ellipse>
                                <Ellipse Fill="{x:Null}" StrokeThickness="0" Height="Auto" Width="Auto">
                                    <Ellipse.Stroke>
                                        <LinearGradientBrush EndPoint="0.854,0.854" StartPoint="0.146,0.146">
                                            <GradientStop Color="#7FFFFFFF"/>
                                            <GradientStop Color="#59000000" Offset="1"/>
                                            <GradientStop Color="#00868686" Offset="0.5"/>
                                        </LinearGradientBrush>
                                    </Ellipse.Stroke>
                                </Ellipse>
                            </Grid>
                        </ControlTemplate>
                    </Setter.Value>
                </Setter>
            </Style>
    

    I set the StrokeThickness of the third ellipse in the style to 0 which ultimately removed that shading that you're seeing.

    Hope this helps!
