Question

I have done like this for creating click event handler for one part of the chart using mschart control, the chart is like this

and the code like this

private void targetChartmouse_Click(object sender, MouseEventArgs e)
{ 
  try
  {
    var pos = e.Location;
    var results = kpiChartControl.HitTest(pos.X, pos.Y, false, ChartElementType.DataPoint);
    foreach (var result in results)
    {
      if (result.ChartElementType == ChartElementType.DataPoint)
      { 
        //do something....
      }
    }        
  }
}

It’s working fine when we click on the chart (in every section of chart), but I want to do something only when we click on the live(green), not on every part. Is it possible to find the region of live(green)

Is it possible using c#?

I am doing winforms application

This might work:

try
{
  var pos = e.Location;
  var results = kpiChartControl.HitTest(pos.X, pos.Y, false, ChartElementType.DataPoint);
  foreach (var result in results)
  {
    if (result.ChartElementType == ChartElementType.DataPoint)
    {
      if (result.Series.Points[result.PointIndex].AxisLabel == "Live")
      {
        Console.WriteLine("success?");
      }
    }
  }  
}
