Hi,
I'm using the xamdatacarousel and I'm trying to create my own path as none of the ones in the samples truly match what I want.
Could I have some help / guidance on how to do this
The path I want to replicate is similar to the zig zag example however there needs to be less room between each item
Like so:

Thanks, Grant
Hi Grant,
The item spacing is controlled by the number of items visible at once. Inside the XamDataCarousel.ViewSettings there is a property called ItemsPerPage. The more items that are in the page at once the less space appears between each item. You can try adjusting this property to see if it will get you the desired behavior.
With regards to creating custom paths, please see the following documentation:http://help.infragistics.com/doc/WPF/2015.2/CLR4.0/?page=xamDataPresenter_Setting_a_Path_for_xamDataPresenter_to_Use.htmlhttp://help.infragistics.com/Help/Doc/WPF/2015.2/CLR4.0/html/xamCarousel_Creating_a_Named_Path_on_the_Artboard.html
Unfortunately this isn't the case as the items aren't displayed like I said they would even once then items per page has been increased
That's unfortunate. Currently the carousel control doesn't have a setting to control item spacing other than the number of items per page and this is because the carousel is designed to evenly space out the items across the path. If you'd like to see more control over item spacing in the future I recommend submitting this as a product idea here: http://ideas.infragistics.com
