Editing Chart by the user

[Ravit Shem-Tov]

Hello

How can i block the option of changing the chart proprties by the user
(when you right-click the mouse on the chart)?

Thank you

More important is how to eliminate the user option to double-click the legend, because then the legend properies is opened and the user can change them.

Hi Ravi,

By default Chart will not provide any option ( or context Menu ) to change the properties of the chartControl.

Do you mean to disallow the Properties Editors which is displayed when double-clicking on the chart series as shown in the screen shot?

Could you please provide us with more information on your requirement. So that it is helpful for us to provide you with the better solution at the earliest.

Thanks for your patience.

Hi Ravi,

It is possible to prevent the dialogs being displayed when double-clicking on the ChartSeries by setting the AllowUserEditStyle Property to false.

Example:

this.chartControl1.AllowUserEditStyles = false; // SeriesStyle editor dialog will not be displayed when double-clicked on the Series in Chart.

Also it is possible to prevent the dialogs being displayed when double-clicking the chart legend by setting the ChartControl.legend.Style to ChartLegendStyle.Empty.

Example:

this.chartcontrol1.Legend.Style=ChartLegendStyle.Empty; // Nothing will be displayed when double-clicked on the legend. User can drag the legend.

I have attached the sample illustrating the same in this link below.

Please let me know if you have any other queries. Thanks for your patience.
