FastScatterBitmapSeries Interior color based on value

Hello,

Is it possible to adjust the color of the points on the chart based on the value?  For example, a boolean value, where true = blue, false = red.  I presume it requires an IValueConverter, but I'm not quite sure how to get it working.  If this isn't the way to do it, then would it be possible for you to point me in the right direction, or perhaps provide a sample on how this may be achieved.

        <syncfusion:SfChart Margin="35,20,35,35" x:Name="flexibleAxisChart">
            <syncfusion:SfChart.Header>
                <TextBlock FontSize="20"  Margin="0,0,0,40" Text="Test Chart"/>
            </syncfusion:SfChart.Header>

            <syncfusion:SfChart.PrimaryAxis>
                <syncfusion:NumericalAxis ShowGridLines="False">
                    <syncfusion:NumericalAxis.Header>
                        <TextBlock Text="Y Axis" FontSize="14" Margin="5" FontWeight="Normal" />
                    </syncfusion:NumericalAxis.Header>
                </syncfusion:NumericalAxis>
            </syncfusion:SfChart.PrimaryAxis>

            <syncfusion:SfChart.SecondaryAxis>
                <syncfusion:NumericalAxis RangePadding="Round">
                    <syncfusion:NumericalAxis.Header>
                        <TextBlock Text="X Axis" FontSize="14" Margin="5" FontWeight="Normal" />
                    </syncfusion:NumericalAxis.Header>
                </syncfusion:NumericalAxis>
            </syncfusion:SfChart.SecondaryAxis>

            <syncfusion:FastScatterBitmapSeries EnableAnimation="True" ItemsSource="{Binding InstanceData}"
                                                XBindingPath="XValue" YBindingPath="YValue" Label="First"
                                                Interior="**** this is the what I need help with *****">
            </syncfusion:FastScatterBitmapSeries>
        </syncfusion:SfChart>



Thank you!

I just realised that what I'm asking for isn't possible given the way you do the drawing of the ellipses for the
FastScatterBitmapSeries.  It seems to be a simple loop of all the points which calls DrawEllipse.

An alternative solution presented itself, so now I have my data displaying correctly.  It just involved creating a selective list of the data points and having a separate FastScatterBitmapSeries display those points.

Thanks for contacting Syncfusion Support. 
 
We have analyzed your requirement(setting different color to the FastScatterBitmapSeries based on boolean value) and can achieve it using custom Palatte of the series as shown in the below code, 
MainWindow.xaml: 
<syncfusion:FastScatterBitmapSeries x:Name="series" Palette="Custom"  EnableAnimation="True" ItemsSource="{Binding Data}" ScatterWidth="5" ScatterHeight="5" 
                                                XBindingPath="XValue" YBindingPath="YValue" Label="First"  > 
</syncfusion:FastScatterBitmapSeries> 
 
MainWindow.cs: 
ViewModel view = new ViewModel(); 
 
ChartColorModel colorModel = new ChartColorModel();          
foreach(var item in view.Data) 
{ 
      if (item.flag == true) 
         colorModel.CustomBrushes.Add(new SolidColorBrush(Colors.Blue)); 
      else 
         colorModel.CustomBrushes.Add(new SolidColorBrush(Colors.Red)); 
            
 } 
series.ColorModel = colorModel; 
 
Please find the output screenshot, 
 
 
We have prepared a demo sample based on your requirement and please find it from below link, 
Please let us know if you have any concerns.

Thank you very much Durgadev! The method you provided works well.  I've expanded on it to bind the ColorModel to a property in the view-model, and the processing code is in a custom Behavior to update that ColorModel property. 

Thanks again!
