Surface Axis in WPF Surface Chart (SfSurfaceChart)

23 Oct 2019 / 1 minute to read

SurfaceAxis is used to locate a data point inside the surface area. In surface, you require three axis to locate data points, such as X-Axis, Y-Axis and Z-Axis. You can define axis in surface using the following code example. If you do not define the axis, then it automatically takes the default axis with default properties values.

XAML:

<chart:SfSurfaceChart>

	<chart:SfSurfaceChart.XAxis>
	
		<chart:SurfaceAxis  />
		
	</chart:SfSurfaceChart.XAxis>

	<chart:SfSurfaceChart.YAxis>
	
		<chart:SurfaceAxis />
		
	</chart:SfSurfaceChart.YAxis>

	<chart:SfSurfaceChart.ZAxis>
	
		<chart:SurfaceAxis />
		
	</chart:SfSurfaceChart.ZAxis>
	
<chart:SfSurfaceChart />
SfSurfaceChart surface = new SfSurfaceChart();

surface.XAxis = new SurfaceAxis();

surface.YAxis = new SurfaceAxis();

surface.ZAxis = new SurfaceAxis();

The following APIs are used to customize the surface axis.
