Hi team,
We need a ChartView with multiple series and multiple Y-axis. The axis color of each Y-axis should be automatically painted according to the palette setting (thank you for the brilliant work - it's very intuitive). However, if clear the series and re-assign a new set of series, the border color of the first axis changes to black, regardless which palette is active. If the palette is set to a new one, the border color can be re-painted correctly. See screenshot as attached.
How to reproduce: Please refer to the attached project for a demo of reproduction. Click the first button to populate new random data. The border color of the first axis should change to black after clicking the button twice and more times. Clicking the second button will force the palette to change and the border color will become normal.
Thank you, team.
Best,
Yusi
Currently, RadChartView offers exporting to a Bitmap in one of the following formats: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/system.drawing.imaging.imageformat?view=netframework-4.8
It would be nice to have export functionality to a vector image.
I need to draw a series of graphs and show the legend. When the legend does not fit in the RadChartView, a scroll bar appears - this is acceptable, you can quickly see the whole legend. But the title of the legend is cut off.
radChartView1.AreaType = ChartAreaType.Cartesian;
var scatterSeries = new ScatterSeries();
scatterSeries.DataPoints.Add(new ScatterDataPoint(15, 19));
scatterSeries.DataPoints.Add(new ScatterDataPoint(18, 10));
scatterSeries.DataPoints.Add(new ScatterDataPoint(13, 15));
scatterSeries.DataPoints.Add(new ScatterDataPoint(10, 8));
scatterSeries.DataPoints.Add(new ScatterDataPoint(5, 12));
radChartView1.Series.Add(scatterSeries);
var verticalAxis = radChartView1.Axes.Get<LinearAxis>(1);
verticalAxis.Minimum = 0.0d;
verticalAxis.Maximum = 5.0d;
verticalAxis.MajorStep = 0.5d;
verticalAxis.LabelFormat = "{0:0.00} m";
for (var i = verticalAxis.Minimum; i <= verticalAxis.Maximum; i += verticalAxis.MajorStep)
{
var annotation1 = new CartesianGridLineAnnotation();
annotation1.Axis = this.radChartView1.Axes[1] as CartesianAxis;
annotation1.BorderColor = Color.LightGray;
annotation1.BorderDashStyle = DashStyle.Solid;
annotation1.BorderWidth = 1;
annotation1.Value = i;
radChartView1.Annotations.Add(annotation1);
}
Workaround:
public RadForm1()
{
InitializeComponent();
this.radChartView1.CreateRenderer += radChartView1_CreateRenderer;
InitChart();
}
private void radChartView1_CreateRenderer(object sender, ChartViewCreateRendererEventArgs e)

for (int i = 0; i < this.Area.Annotations.Count; i++)
{

{
this.DrawParts.Add(new CustomCartesianGridLineAnnotationDrawPart(this.Area.Annotations[i] as CartesianGridLineAnnotation, this));

To reproduce:
var lineSeries = new LineSeries();
lineSeries.DataPoints.Add(new CategoricalDataPoint(0, "A"));
lineSeries.DataPoints.Add(new CategoricalDataPoint(Convert.ToDouble(decimal.MaxValue), "B"));

Please use the following code snippet. You will notice that for very long text in the trackball, the fill rectangle doesn't fit the text.
PS. If the legend items occupy enough width of the chart, there wouldn't be sufficient space for the trackball.

"the default size of the RadChartView from the Telerik UI for WinForms suite</html>";
private void trackballController_TextNeeded(object sender, TextNeededEventArgs e)
{
e.Text = text;
}
Workaround:

trackballController.IsFixedSize = true;
trackballController.FixedSize = new Size(700, 40);
trackballController.TextNeeded += trackballController_TextNeeded;

Please refer to the attached sample project. Try to select a point.
Expected result: the clicked point should be colored in red.
Actual result: a random point is colored in red even though the label is colored correctly. The attached gif file illustrates the observed result.
