7 May 20212 minutes to read

Adornments (Data Markers) are used to provide information about the data points to the user. Values from data point(x, y) or other custom properties from a data source can be displayed.You can add a shape and label to adorn each data point.

Each adornment can be represented by the following:

• Marker- Displays the desired symbol at the (X, Y) point.
• Label - Displays the segment label content at the (X, Y) point.
• ConnectorLine - Line used to connect the (X, Y) point and the label element.

The following code example illustrates how to initialize the adornment.

XAML

<chart:ColumnSeries3D ItemsSource="{Binding CategoricalDatas}" XBindingPath="Year" YBindingPath="Plastic">
                <!--AdornmentsInfo-->
        <chart:ColumnSeries3D.AdornmentsInfo>
            <chart:ChartAdornmentInfo3D UseSeriesPalette="True" BorderBrush="White" BorderThickness="1" ShowLabel="True" ></chart:ChartAdornmentInfo3D>
        </chart:ColumnSeries3D.AdornmentsInfo>
    </chart:ColumnSeries3D>

C#

ColumnSeries3D series = new ColumnSeries3D()
            {
                ItemsSource = new ViewModel().CategoricalData,
                XBindingPath = "Year",
                YBindingPath = "Plastic"                
            };

        ChartAdornmentInfo3D adornmentInfo = new ChartAdornmentInfo3D() { ShowLabel = true };

        series.AdornmentsInfo = adornmentInfo;

        chart.Series.Add(series);
