SeriesDataAdapter.ArgumentDataMember Property

Gets or sets the name of the data source field that contains series point argument. This is a bindable property.

Assembly : DevExpress.Maui.Charts.dll

NuGet Package : DevExpress.Maui.Charts

Declaration

csharp

public string ArgumentDataMember { get; set; }

Property Value

Type	Description
String

Stores the name of the data field that contains series point argument.

Remarks

To populate the ChartView series with data, you can bind it to a data source. To do this, set the Data property of your series to a SeriesDataAdapter instance and specify this adapter’s properties:

DataSource — data source for the chart;
ArgumentDataMember — the data source field that contains argument values. Each data point of a series requires one argument value;
ValueDataMembers — the collection of data source fields that contain data values for series points.

Example

This example shows how to provide data for the ChartView series.

Set the Data property of your series to a new SeriesDataAdapter instance. Use the DataSource, ArgumentDataMember, and ValueDataMembers properties to specify the data source for the chart, and to define data source members used to generate series points and labels.
