Create StackingColumnSeries dynamically

Hi team,

I am trying to create StackingColumnSeries dynamically. I have a number of categories for which I want to show Column Chart where on X axis is time (months) and Y shows some amount of data. So there should be stacked columns for each month. In each column I want to display stacked columns for each available category. However the number of categories it not known before runtime.

Is there a way how to dynamically add StackingColumnSeries for each category in code, instead of XAML markup?

I have tried to add it like this, based on your demo:

var temp = new StackingColumnSeries
{
  ItemsSource = ColumnViewModel.MedalDetails2,
  XBindingPath = "CountryName", 
  YBindingPath = "GoldMedals",
  AdornmentsInfo = new ChartAdornmentInfo
  {
    ShowMarker = false,
    ShowLabel = true,
    HorizontalAlignment = HorizontalAlignment.Center,
    VerticalAlignment = VerticalAlignment.Bottom,
  }
  ,
  Label = "asdsd"
};
stColumnChart.Series.Add(temp);

However this does not seam to work. I have also pointed the DataContext of the whole chart to the ColumnViewModel. Nothing is displayed on the chart.

Thank you for your help!

Hi,

Your sample is perfect.
Does it possible to do this without binding to gain performance?

Hi Pieter,

Thanks for your update.

Query 1

We would like to inform you that, we need to bind the underlying Data collection for initializing the Chart Series and also like to inform you that, it does not cause any performance issue.

Query 2

Create Data Points and initialize ChartSeries procedure is available in our online documentation. Please find our online documentation as given below:
