Hi there
We are using the UltraWinChart v13.2.20132.2023 in a VS 2010 .NET 4.0 C# WinForms application.
We have a Composite Chart made up of multiple column series and 3 line series
I would like to change the legend icons for my 3 line series only.
For each of the 3 line series I have set the LineAppearance.IconAppearance.Icon to SymbolIcon.Triangle and would like the legend to also display them as Triangles rather than the line which can be difficult to see
How should I go about this?
I have looked at the LineChartStyles sample in the Windows Forms samples and see that the icons are displayed as boxes in the legend but to be honest I cannot make out how you guys do it.
Thanks in advance.
Regards
Geoff
Hi Milko
As per your previous suggestion I have lodged this as a product idea.
I am just going to stick with the defaults for line series in the Composite Chart
Thanks

Ok thanks Milko
Thank you for posting in our forum.
UltraChart’s legend does not support IconAppearance for composite line chart. In our LineChartStyles sample the chart is not composite chart – it is 2D line chart bind to data set.
Please consider using composite Scatter chart. It will show in the legend the icons you have set to the chart. Following the next link you may find how to create a composite chart using the Chart Wizard, the Designer or in code http://help.infragistics.com/Doc/WinForms/current/CLR4.0/?page=Chart_Creating_a_Composite_Chart.html
Please let me know if you have any further question.
Thank you for using Infragistics Controls.
