NuGet Package : DevExpress.Charts

Remarks

The AreaSeriesView class provides the series view functionality of the area type within a chart control.

The AreaSeriesView class inherits properties and methods from the base AreaSeriesViewBase class which defines common settings of area series views.

Note that a particular view type can be defined for a series via its SeriesBase.View property.

For more information on series views of the area type please see the Area Chart topic.

Example

The following example demonstrates how to create a ChartControl with two series of the AreaSeriesView type, and add this chart to a form at runtime. Before proceeding with this example, create a Windows Forms Application in Visual Studio, and add all required assemblies to the References list of your project.

Then, add the following code to the Form.Load event handler.

csharp
using DevExpress.XtraCharts;
// ...

private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) {
    // Create a new chart.
    ChartControl areaChart = new ChartControl();

    // Create two area series.
    Series series1 = new Series("Series 1", ViewType.Area);
    Series series2 = new Series("Series 2", ViewType.Area);

    // Add points to them.
    series1.Points.Add(new SeriesPoint(1, 15));
    series1.Points.Add(new SeriesPoint(2, 18));
    series1.Points.Add(new SeriesPoint(3, 25));
    series1.Points.Add(new SeriesPoint(4, 33));

    series2.Points.Add(new SeriesPoint(1, 10));
    series2.Points.Add(new SeriesPoint(2, 12));
    series2.Points.Add(new SeriesPoint(3, 14));
    series2.Points.Add(new SeriesPoint(4, 17));

    // Add both series to the chart.
    areaChart.Series.AddRange(new Series[] { series1, series2 });

    // Set the numerical argument scale types for the series,
    // as it is qualitative, by default.
    series1.ArgumentScaleType = ScaleType.Numerical;
    series2.ArgumentScaleType = ScaleType.Numerical;

    // Access the view-type-specific options of the series.
    ((AreaSeriesView)series1.View).Transparency = 80;

    // Access the type-specific options of the diagram.
    ((XYDiagram)areaChart.Diagram).EnableAxisXZooming = true;

    // Hide the legend (optional).
    areaChart.Legend.Visible = false;

    // Add the chart to the form.
    areaChart.Dock = DockStyle.Fill;
    this.Controls.Add(areaChart);
}
