In WPF Chart, you can bind the Series property using MVVM pattern in which the ChartSeriesCollection class has been used. Please refer to the following code sample for binding the Series property.
Xaml:
<StackPanel HorizontalAlignment="Center" VerticalAlignment="Center" Background="{ThemeResource ApplicationPageBackgroundThemeBrush}">
<StackPanel.DataContext> <local:ViewModel x:Name="viewmodel"/> </StackPanel.DataContext>
<Button x:Name="AddSeries" Content="AddSeries" Width="700" Height="40" Click="AddSeries_Click" HorizontalAlignment="Center" VerticalAlignment="Center" Background="Transparent" /> <Button x:Name="RemoveSeries" Content="RemoveSeries" Width="700" Height="40" Click="RemoveSeries_Click" HorizontalAlignment="Center" VerticalAlignment="Center" Background="Transparent" />
<chart:SfChart x:Name="Chart" Series="{Binding Series}" > <chart:SfChart.Legend> <chart:ChartLegend /> </chart:SfChart.Legend> <chart:SfChart.PrimaryAxis> <chart:CategoryAxis /> </chart:SfChart.PrimaryAxis> <chart:SfChart.SecondaryAxis> <chart:NumericalAxis/> </chart:SfChart.SecondaryAxis> </chart:SfChart> </StackPanel>

C#:
private void AddSeries_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e) { viewmodel.Series.Add(new LineSeries() { ItemsSource = viewmodel.LineData4, XBindingPath = "XValue", YBindingPath = "YValue", Label = "Series4", AdornmentsInfo = new ChartAdornmentInfo() { ShowMarker = true, SymbolInterior = new SolidColorBrush(Colors.Black), Symbol = ChartSymbol.Diamond } }); }
private void RemoveSeries_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e) { viewmodel.Series.RemoveAt(0); }
public class ViewModel : INotifyPropertyChanged { private ChartSeriesCollection series;
public event PropertyChangedEventHandler PropertyChanged;
public ChartSeriesCollection Series { get { return series; } set { series = value; PropertyChanged?.Invoke(this, new PropertyChangedEventArgs("Series")); } }
public ObservableCollection<Model> LineData1 { get; set; }
public ObservableCollection<Model> LineData2 { get; set; }
public ObservableCollection<Model> LineData3 { get; set; }
public ViewModel() { LineData1 = new ObservableCollection<Model>() { new Model("Benz", 10), new Model("Volvo", 20), new Model("Jaguar", 30), new Model("BMW", 35), new Model("Mahendra", 30), new Model("Toyoto", 20), new Model("Audi", 10), };
LineData2 = new ObservableCollection<Model>() { new Model("Benz", 20), new Model("Volvo", 30), new Model("Jaguar", 40), new Model("BMW", 45), new Model("Mahendra", 40), new Model("Toyoto", 30), new Model("Audi", 20), };
LineData3 = new ObservableCollection<Model>() { new Model("Benz", 30), new Model("Volvo", 40), new Model("Jaguar", 50), new Model("BMW", 55), new Model("Mahendra", 50), new Model("Toyoto", 40), new Model("Audi", 30), };
Series = new ChartSeriesCollection(); Series.Add(new LineSeries() { ItemsSource = LineData1, XBindingPath = "XValue", YBindingPath = "YValue", Label = "Series1", AdornmentsInfo = new ChartAdornmentInfo() { ShowMarker = true,SymbolInterior= new SolidColorBrush(Colors.Black), Symbol= ChartSymbol.Diamond } });
Series.Add(new LineSeries() { ItemsSource = LineData2, XBindingPath = "XValue", YBindingPath = "YValue", Label = "Series2", AdornmentsInfo = new ChartAdornmentInfo() { ShowMarker = true,SymbolInterior= new SolidColorBrush(Colors.Black), Symbol= ChartSymbol.Diamond } });
Series.Add(new LineSeries() { ItemsSource = LineData3, XBindingPath = "XValue", YBindingPath = "YValue", Label = "Series3", AdornmentsInfo = new ChartAdornmentInfo() { ShowMarker = true, SymbolInterior = new SolidColorBrush(Colors.Black), Symbol = ChartSymbol.Diamond } });
} }
public class Model { public string XValue { get; set; }
public double YValue { get; set; }
public Model(string xvalue, double yValue) { XValue = xvalue; YValue = yValue; } } |
