Bar chart

Bar chart

Hi,

I am implementing a chart control which should have 2 bar series.

I created 2 bar series and getting displayed perfect on the screen one after other.

but my Issue is instead of showing one after another series, I want both the series to be overlapped. something like at a point a value of 1 series and just after it the value of second series.

the axis value can be different for both series.

I am using silverlight 4.

Please suggest me , how can I go ahead.

Thanks for your quick reply.

The links you have given above is related to telerik chart controls.

Is the same thing possible using the Silverlight 4's inbuilt chart controls?

Hi vijay_sutaria,

Do you mean a stacked bar chart? You can find an example from toolkit control sampes, DataVisualization->Stacked Series.

Hi,

thanks for reply.

I have to display 2 series , both will be bar (or column). I want to display bar of both the series at same point side by side.

As of now, its showing second series after first series, what I want to is second series's one bar after first series's one bar, and same as for other bars available for both series.

But I think this will be a tough job, So I can go with Stacked bar chart. today I tried with this, but here also its same thing... One Series after other series. at a same point the value of both the series should display stacked, but its not.

I am always getting second series after ending of first series. This is what I dont want to show.

My xaml looks like below :

<toolkit:Chart  x:Name="BarChart" Width="900" Height="350">  	<toolkit:Chart.Axes>  		<toolkit:CategoryAxis Orientation="Y" Location="Left" >  			<toolkit:CategoryAxis.AxisLabelStyle>  				<Style TargetType="toolkit:AxisLabel">  					<Setter Property="StringFormat" Value="{}{0:MMM dd}"/>  				</Style>  			</toolkit:CategoryAxis.AxisLabelStyle>  			<toolkit:CategoryAxis.MajorTickMarkStyle>  				<Style TargetType="Line">  					<Setter Property="Stroke" Value="Black" />  					<Setter Property="StrokeThickness" Value="2" />  					<Setter Property="Y1" Value="0" />  					<Setter Property="Y2" Value="10" />  				</Style>  			</toolkit:CategoryAxis.MajorTickMarkStyle>  		</toolkit:CategoryAxis>  	</toolkit:Chart.Axes>    	<toolkit:StackedBarSeries>  		<toolkit:SeriesDefinition ItemsSource="{Binding ItemSource1}" DependentValuePath="Count" IndependentValuePath="EntryDate" Title="First"/>  		<toolkit:SeriesDefinition ItemsSource="{Binding ItemSource2}" DependentValuePath="Count" IndependentValuePath="EntryDate" Title="Second"/>  	</toolkit:StackedBarSeries>  </toolkit:Chart>  

Please guide me If I am doing any thing wrong here.
