Cannot render the chart

Hi,
I have a problem using SFChart. This is the fist time I use it and I use Xamarin.Forms, so it could be a mistake due to my inexperience.

I coded this method to create the chart:
-------------------------------------
public SfChart GetChart(MyModels.SyncChart chart)
        {
            SfChart sfChart = new SfChart();
            sfChart.HorizontalOptions = LayoutOptions.StartAndExpand;
            sfChart.VerticalOptions = LayoutOptions.StartAndExpand;

            sfChart.Title = new ChartTitle();
            sfChart.Title.Text = chart.Title;

            LineSeries serie = null;
            ChartDataPoint point = null;
            ObservableCollection<ChartDataPoint> points = null;

            foreach (MyModels.Serie chartYSeries in chart.YSeries)
            {
                points = new ObservableCollection<ChartDataPoint>();
                serie = new LineSeries();
                serie.Label = chartYSeries.Name;
                serie.EnableAnimation = true;

                int count = 1; 

                foreach (double value in chartYSeries.Values)
                {
                    point = new ChartDataPoint(count, value);
                    points.Add(point);
                }

                serie.ItemsSource = points;
                //serie.BindingContext = points;
                serie.YBindingPath = "YValue";
                serie.XBindingPath = "XValue";

                sfChart.Series.Add(serie);
            }

            return sfChart;
        }

    public class SyncChart
    {
        public SyncChart()
        {
            this.YSeries = new List<Serie>();
        }

        public string Title { get; set; } = "Chart";

        public List<Serie> YSeries = null;
    }

    public class Serie
    {
        public Serie()
        {
            this.Values = new List<double>();
        }

        public string Name { get; set; } = "Unknown";

        public List<double> Values { get; set; }
    }
-------------------------------------

and then I add it to XAML page. When I start the app, the chart is renderized (I see the chart title) but without data.

I would like to create the chart using only the code-behind.

Is there anyone who can help me?

Hi Valerio 
 
Greetings from Syncfusion. Currently we don’t have the desired size for chart. So, if you use the chart in StackLayout and set layout options as StartAndExpand means, we can’t get the height to chart. So, you should provide HeightRequest to Chart. If not, please change the Layoutoptions as FillAndExpand. It will be working fine. 
 
To know more about chart, please refer our online help document.

Bharathi.

Thank you.

The problem was on "LayoutOptions". I set HeightRequest parameter and I have resolved it.
