Multiple series in one dimension
posted

Hi,

Firstly, as this is my first post, I'd like to thank you for a fantastic product - it has cut our dev time substantially, and impressed the client suitably :)

 

Right, onto my problem - I am writing a control that generates the chart according to specific criteria that it receives from the server, thus, from code-behind I set View3D = true/false, set the resource style to the one required (style resources hacked out of the Feature Browser), and then creating the series and the datapoints.

My probelm comes in with a 2-dimensional column chart - the Basic chart example in the Feature Browser renders two series, but with the data points next to each other above the X-axis label, instead of BEHIND each other, which mine is doing at the moment.  How do I go about changing that?!

Than, a minor one - when I resize the control, the chart is not resized in proportion, the Series Legend merely shifts out right... is there some way to get around that?

 

Thanks!

Reinhardt

    i am a bit confused... i'm not sure how columns would be displayed behind one another on a 2D column chart.  i checked the samples browser and the basic column chart 3D sample shows two series, while the column chart 2D sample shows 6 series ... are you sure you didn't mean 3D here?  maybe you could post an image of what you're seeing?

    if it is 3D, try the Transform3D property...

    <igChart:XamChart.Transform3D>
                    <RotateTransform3D>
                        <RotateTransform3D.Rotation>
                            <AxisAngleRotation3D Axis="0, 1, 0" Angle="-45" />                           
                        </RotateTransform3D.Rotation>
                    </RotateTransform3D>
                </igChart:XamChart.Transform3D>

    try adjusting the Legend Margin to adjust its position.  if you set the MarginType to "Percentage", you can position it relative to the entire chart size.
