I’m looking for a simplest way to display and/or draw a very basic chart

  • 0

I’m looking for a simplest way to display and/or draw a very basic chart on Windows phone (no data points, no axis, just a simple line showing a general trend).

I’ve tried looking for a charting libraries but all seem very complex (and all I could find were expensive).

Second thing I’ve tried is to simply draw a line on canvas – but Canvas element in WP7 doesn’t seem to allow drawing on it.

Any hints, pointers to tutorials you could give me?

    Have a look at AM Charts

    it’s free, open-source and fairly easy to use. Quite a few WP7 developers are using it

    Here’s a quick example usage:

    <amq:SerialChart x:Name="_24HoursLineGraph" DataSource="{Binding Data24}" CategoryValueMemberPath="Date" AxisForeground="White" PlotAreaBackground="Black" GridStroke="DarkGray" Grid.Row="1" Margin="20">
         <amq:SerialChart.Graphs>
             <amq:LineGraph ValueMemberPath="Close" Title="Close" Brush="Blue" />
         </amq:SerialChart.Graphs>
</amq:SerialChart>
