Hi Raja,

Thanks for using syncfusion product. We have analyzed your requirements and we like to inform you that,

After adding DLL you need to do following steps as follows,

1.      In web configuration file, all the referenced Syncfusion assemblies should be registered in the <assemblies> section, namespace should be added for the assemblies in <namespaces> section

[web.config]

<code>      

<assemblies>

      

        <add assembly="Syncfusion.Core, Version=12.2400.0.36, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=632609B4D040F6B4" />

        <add assembly="Syncfusion.Shared.Mvc, Version=12.2300.0.36, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=3d67ed1f87d44c89" />

<add assembly="Syncfusion.Linq.Base, Version=12.2400.0.36, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=3d67ed1f87d44c89" />

        <add assembly="Syncfusion.Theme.Base, Version=12.2400.0.36, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=3d67ed1f87d44c89" />

        <add assembly="Syncfusion.Tools.Mvc, Version=12.2300.0.36, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=3d67ed1f87d44c89" />

        <add assembly="Syncfusion.Chart.Base, Version=12.2400.0.36, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=3d67ed1f87d44c89" />

        <add assembly="Syncfusion.Chart.Mvc, Version=12.2300.0.36, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=3d67ed1f87d44c89" />

        <add assembly="Syncfusion.Compression.Base, Version=12.2400.0.36, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=3d67ed1f87d44c89" />

        <add assembly="Syncfusion.Shared.Base, Version=12.2400.0.36, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=3d67ed1f87d44c89" />

        <add assembly="Syncfusion.XlsIO.Mvc, Version=12.2300.0.36, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=3d67ed1f87d44c89" />

        <add assembly="Syncfusion.Pdf.Base, Version=12.2400.0.36, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=3d67ed1f87d44c89" />

        <add assembly="Syncfusion.DocIO.Mvc, Version=12.2300.0.36, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=3d67ed1f87d44c89" />

      </assemblies>

<namespaces>

        <add namespace="System.Web.Helpers" />

        <add namespace="System.Web.Mvc" />

        <add namespace="System.Web.Mvc.Ajax" />

        <add namespace="System.Web.Mvc.Html" />

        <add namespace="System.Web.Routing" />

        <add namespace="System.Web.WebPages" />

        <add namespace="System.Drawing" />

        <add namespace="Syncfusion.Mvc.Shared" />

        <add namespace="Syncfusion.Mvc.Tools" />

        <add namespace="Syncfusion.Mvc.Chart" />

        <add namespace="Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Chart" />

</namespaces>

</code>

And handlers for rendering chart should be added in <httpHandler> and <handlers> section.

Please refer the following online documentation link for adding code to web configuration file.

http://help.syncfusion.com/ug/asp.net%20mvc/default.htm#!documents/addcodestothewebconf.htm

2.       Essential Chart also requires scripts and style sheets for user interactive features like tooltip, zooming, toolbar, context menu, etc., which should be added in the page that renders chart.

Please refer the following online documentation link for adding style sheets required for chart.

http://help.syncfusion.com/ug/asp.net%20mvc/default.htm#!documents/addstylemanager.htm

Please refer the following online documentation link for adding scripts required for user interaction in Essential Chart.
