Hi,
I have Evaluation version of TeeChart for .NET v3. I found sample for WPF Teechart in it. But Couldn't find any documentation or help file for WPF Teechart. Can you please tell me where I can find the same?

Hi Priya,

There's no specific documentation nor help files efor TeeChart.WPF.dll. Generic TeeChart douments and examples apply. You'll find them at TeeChart's program group.

If there's anything specific you can't find don't hesitate to let us know.

I want to find out whether Teechart for WPF support below 2 features
1) Multiple charts stacked on top of each other with tied scrolling. E.g. A price chart displayed over a volume chart.

2) Interactive cursors - position the cursors at a specific data point in a series and hint you on it's X and Y values via a horizontal and vertical line passing through the data point and intersecting the X and Y axis.

Priya

Hi Priya,

Yes, those features are the same for WinForms and WPF applications.

1) Multiple charts stacked on top of each other with tied scrolling. E.g. A price chart displayed over a volume chart.

You can achieve that using custom axes as shown in the following examples at the features demo, available at TeeChart¡s program group:

All Features\Welcome !\Axes\Scrolling multiple axes
All Features\Welcome !\Axes\Permanent custom axes
All Features\Welcome !\Axes\Opaque zones

You'll also find more info about axis settings at Tutorial 4 - Axis Control. Tutorials can be found at TeeChart's program group.

2) Interactive cursors - position the cursors at a specific data point in a series and hint you on it's X and Y values via a horizontal and vertical line passing through the data point and intersecting the X and Y axis.

Yes, you can do that as shown in the examples at All Features\Welcome !\Tools\Cursor in the features demo.

Hope this helps!

Thanks, Narcís.
I have few more questions.
1) Teechart for WPF does not have "StepLine" chart type. Is there any plan to have "StepLine" in next releases?
If not, Is there any way to create custom series?

2) Is there any plan to release Teechart chart control for SilverLight ?

Regards,
Priya

Hi Priya,

1) Teechart for WPF does not have "StepLine" chart type. Is there any plan to have "StepLine" in next releases?
If not, Is there any way to create custom series?

"StepLine" is not a series style it just consist of basic Line series with Stairs property set to true:

Code: Select all

			Steema.TeeChart.Styles.Line line1 = new Steema.TeeChart.Styles.Line(tChart1.Chart);

			line1.Stairs = true;
			line1.FillSampleValues();

So the same can be done with WPF applications.

2) Is there any plan to release Teechart chart control for SilverLight ?

Yes, a SilverLight control will be included with next TeeChart for .NET major release due out by the end of this quarter.

Thanks, Narcís.
1) Does Teechart Silverlight Chart control has same features as Teeechart WPF ?
2) Are the APIs for Silverlight and WPF Teechart same? I meant, do they have common codebase?

Thanks Again, Narcís

I have one more question.
1) Can we bind WPF Chart to List or Collection ?
I tried to do same, but it doesn't work.

Since Silverlight does not have ADO.net, We have planned to use ObservableCollection<T> class, which will be binded to both Silverlight and WPF controls like Grid or Chart.
ObservableCollection is used so that control can recognise the data changes.

How did you planned to do binding for Silverlight Chart ?

Thanks,
Priya

Hi Priya,

The Series.DataSource property will have to be modified to work with .NET 3.0. I'll add your request to the wish-list to be considered for inclusion in next releases.

Thanks, Narcís.
What will be the Silverlight Chart Datasource ?

Priya

Hi Priya,

We are not sure about that yet, some more investigation is still necessary. However, it's likely there will be support for ObservableCollection.
