Thanks Max! That was a very helpful example.

I'm curious how far the Label formatter extends. Is it possible to bind it? Say to an ObservableCollection<string>{"something","various","whatever"} ?

Here's a small point chart example that you might be able to use:

  <my:XamChart Background="AliceBlue" x:Name="chart">
            <my:XamChart.Series>
                <my:Series ChartType="Point">
                    <my:Series.DataPoints>
                        <my:DataPoint Value="3" Label="Jan"/>
                        <my:DataPoint Value="5" Label="Feb"/>
                        <my:DataPoint Value="2" Label="Mar"/>
                        <my:DataPoint Value="1" Label="Apr"/>
                    </my:Series.DataPoints>
                </my:Series>
            </my:XamChart.Series>
           
            <my:XamChart.Axes>
                <my:Axis AxisType="PrimaryY">
                    <my:Axis.Label>
                        <my:Label Format="Category:{0}"/>
                    </my:Axis.Label>
                </my:Axis>
            </my:XamChart.Axes>
        </my:XamChart>

Thanks for the replies.

Max,

I was thinking about converting the "categories" to numerics, then formating the axis labels, but wasn't sure how to do it. The closest example I could find was the date converter/formatter.

I'll try a Point Chart and investigate this idea further.

Devin,

Maybe a small similar data set would help give you some context.

(Jan,HR,Fail),(Jan,Accounting,Fail),(Jan,Sales,Fail)

(Feb,HR,Fail),(Feb, Accounting,Pass),(Feb,Sales,Fail)

(Mar,HR,Fail),(Mar, Accounting,Pass),(Mar,Sales,Pass)

etc...

I built a prototype as a POC. Essentially a grid, with y axis (HR, Accounting,Sales), x axis (Jan, Feb, Mar, etc...) and each datagrid cell a color(green for pass, red for fail).

Of course it's not as pretty, functional, or elegant as Infragistics.
