How to add custom TrendLine in Chart
4 Oct 20182 minutes to read
TrendLines are used to draw lines in the ChartArea. They can be added to the chart using the TrendLineAdder class.
TrendLines can also be drawn using the Mouse Events. In this case, you will have to make use of the Utility class to listen to mouse events and convert them into trendlines. You can draw any number of trendlines, and can set different colors to differentiate them.
// Creating Custom Points
ChartPoint ptStart = this.chart.ChartArea.GetValueByPoint(start);
ChartPoint ptEnd = this.chart.ChartArea.GetValueByPoint(end);
ChartSeries series = this.chart.Model.NewSeries("TrendLine", ChartSeriesType.Line);
series.Points.Add(ptStart);
series.Points.Add(ptEnd);
this.chart.Series.Add(series);
series.LegendItem.Visible = false;
// Specify the color for the lines.
series.Style.Interior = new Syncfusion.Drawing.BrushInfo(ptStart.YValues[0] < ptEnd.YValues[0] ? Color.DarkGreen : Color.Red);' Creating Custom Points
