Silverlight Tookit chart makup in xaml fails

Silverlight Tookit chart makup in xaml fails

While "designing" a chart, I faced a couple of problems which I have yet been unable to solve. The chart as it is now: http://imgbin.org/index.php?page=image&id=10595

1) I want the line of the "AreaSeries" to have the same style as the "LineSeries". As you can see in the image, it has no style at all :|. Most likely it has something to do with:

<ControlTemplate TargetType="toolkit:AreaDataPoint"> 

being incorrect, though I cannot find the correct way to do it... Is it possible at all to give the line and datapoints of a "AreaSerie" another layout, or is the only way to do so by creating another lineseries with the same datapoints as the AreaSeries?

2) When I set a minimum for the Y-axis, via script:

(this.chart1.Axes[0] as LinearAxis).Minimum = UsersMin; (this.chart1.Axes[1] as LinearAxis).Minimum = CumulativeMin; 

It will cause the lines to not showup at all :| (even if I set it to "1", and the lines are above 1). How can i set a minimum and keep my graphic?

3) Is it possible to put a text in front of a dynamic value in the ContentControl?

<ContentControl Content="Users: {TemplateBinding DependentValue}" /> 

Above code does not work, for it thinks {TemplateBinding DependentValue} is just a text, and not a code to be replaced with the data… Is it possible to place a text in front of a databinding? and ifso, how?

The XAML code is attached below.

Thank you!
