Hi Magnus,

The following code snippet should get you started:

nChartControl1.BackgroundStyle.FillStyle = new NColorFillStyle(Color.Black);

NImageFrameStyle frameStyle = new NImageFrameStyle(PredefinedImageFrame.Emboss);

frameStyle.FillStyle = new NGradientFillStyle(Color.DarkGray, Color.Black);

nChartControl1.BackgroundStyle.FrameStyle = frameStyle;

nChartControl1.Panels.Clear();

// set a chart title

NLabel title = new NLabel("EUR / USD Exchange rate<br/><font size='10pt'>click and drag in the chart area to zoom in</font>");

title.Dock = DockStyle.Top;

title.TextStyle.TextFormat = TextFormat.XML;

title.TextStyle.FillStyle = new NColorFillStyle(Color.White);

title.ContentAlignment = ContentAlignment.BottomCenter;

title.Location = new NPointL(new NLength(50, NRelativeUnit.ParentPercentage), new NLength(2, NRelativeUnit.ParentPercentage));

title.Margins = new NMarginsL(10, 10, 10, 0);

nChartControl1.Panels.Add(title);

NCartesianChart chart = new NCartesianChart();

chart.Dock = DockStyle.Fill;

chart.Margins = new NMarginsL(10, 10, 40, 10);

chart.BoundsMode = BoundsMode.Stretch;

chart.Wall(ChartWallType.Back).VisibilityMode = WallVisibilityMode.Hidden;

nChartControl1.Panels.Add(chart);

// configure the y axis

NAxis yAxis = chart.Axis(StandardAxis.PrimaryY);

NLinearScaleConfigurator yScale = yAxis.ScaleConfigurator as NLinearScaleConfigurator;

yScale.InnerMajorTickStyle.Length = new NLength(0);

yScale.OuterMajorTickStyle.LineStyle.Color = Color.LightGray;

yScale.Title.Text = "Exchange Rate";

yScale.Title.TextStyle.FillStyle = new NColorFillStyle(Color.LightGray);

yScale.LabelStyle.TextStyle.FillStyle = new NColorFillStyle(Color.LightGray);

yScale.RulerStyle.BorderStyle.Width = new NLength(0);

// configure the x axis

NAxis xAxis = chart.Axis(StandardAxis.PrimaryX);

NDateTimeScaleConfigurator dtScale = new NDateTimeScaleConfigurator();

dtScale.InnerMajorTickStyle.Length = new NLength(0);

dtScale.OuterMajorTickStyle.LineStyle.Color = Color.LightGray;

dtScale.RulerStyle.BorderStyle.Color = Color.LightGray;

dtScale.LabelStyle.TextStyle.FillStyle = new NColorFillStyle(Color.LightGray);

dtScale.MajorTickMode = MajorTickMode.CustomStep;

dtScale.CustomStep = new NDateTimeSpan(1, NDateTimeUnit.Month);

dtScale.EnableUnitSensitiveFormatting = false;

dtScale.LabelValueFormatter = new NDateTimeValueFormatter("MMM yy");

xAxis.ScaleConfigurator = dtScale;

// add the first line

NAreaSeries area = (NAreaSeries)chart.Series.Add(SeriesType.Area);

area.UseXValues = true;

area.DataLabelStyle.Visible = false;

area.FillStyle = new NGradientFillStyle(Color.FromArgb(200, Color.Yellow), Color.FromArgb(125, Color.Black));

area.BorderStyle.Width = new NLength(0);

int maxCount = 200;

DateTime dt = DateTime.Now;

Random rand = new Random();

for (int i = 0; i < maxCount; i++)

{

double dValueY = 110 + Math.Sin(i * 3.14 / 18) * 50 * (rand.NextDouble() + 1.0);

int nIndex = i % maxCount;

area.Values.Add(dValueY);

area.XValues.Add(dt.ToOADate());

dt += new TimeSpan(1, 0, 0, 0);

}

You probably need to change the colors a bit, but that's the basic configuration...

Hi Magnus,

You need:

using System;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using Nevron;
using Nevron.Chart;
using Nevron.Dom;
using Nevron.GraphicsCore;

BTW Pressing Ctrl + "." in Visual Studio will autmatically suggest which using you need to include for the class/enum etc. at the current cursor position...
