Logarithmic scale on Tornado Chart

[Raghav Gokakkar]

Hi, 

It seems the logarithmic scale on tornado chart is not supported. If I have a data point which is far bigger than the rest of the data points, most other values do not show up on the chart. Applying logarithmic scale distorts the chart. 

Can you advise how logarithmic scale on tornado chart be achieved?

Hi Raghav,

Thanks for the update.

We have created a simple sample using logarithmic values in tornado chart.

Please refer the following code snippet to achieve this
<code>
[CS]

 for (int i = 1; i < 5; i++)
                //Adding logarithmic values to series points
                series.Points.Add(Math.Log(i*2), 0, rand.Next(40, 60));               
           
            series.Style.Interior = new Syncfusion.Drawing.BrushInfo(Color.Blue);

            this.chartControl1.Series.Add(series);

            ChartSeries series2 = new ChartSeries("Series2", ChartSeriesType.Tornado);

            for (int i = 1; i < 5; i++)
                series2.Points.Add(Math.Log(i*2), 0, rand.Next(-60, -40));
  
            series2.Style.Interior = new Syncfusion.Drawing.BrushInfo(Color.Crimson);
               
            //Enabling TickLabelsDrawingMode to set custom labels for axis
            this.chartControl1.PrimaryYAxis.TickLabelsDrawingMode = ChartAxisTickLabelDrawingMode.UserMode;

            //Setting labels for axis based on logarithmic values
            foreach(ChartPoint point in series.Points)
                if(point.X!=0)                   
                    this.chartControl1.PrimaryYAxis.Labels.Add(new ChartAxisLabel(Math.Log(point.X).ToString(), point.X));
                else if(point.X==0)
                    //Since Math.Log(0) is infinity, point value is directly used
                    this.chartControl1.PrimaryYAxis.Labels.Add(new ChartAxisLabel(point.X.ToString(), point.X));
</code>

Please download the sample attached and let us know if you have any concern.
