Stacked Series

A StackedSeries is a collection of values to be displayed on a graph. When multiple Stacked Series are added to the same PlotArea, values for a particular index (on any indexed stacked series) or a particular point in time (on any date-time stacked series) will literally be stacked on top of each other. There are four different groups of Stacked Series corresponding to the four different types of stacked charts (stacked area, stacked bar, stacked column and stacked line). Each stacked series group will have both an indexed and a date-time type.

Stacked Pie and Scatter charts do not exist.

Stacked Area Series

An area chart has two types of stacked series, DateTimeStackedAreaSeries and IndexedStackedAreaSeries.

DateTimeStackedAreaSeries

A DateTimeStackedAreaSeries is a collection of DateTimeStackedAreaSeriesElement each corresponding to a particular point in time that will be plotted as a stacked area chart. A DateTimeStackedAreaSeries uses DateTimeXAxis as the XAxis type and NumericYAxis as the YAxis type. It uses the .NET Framework's DateTime structure for setting the date portion of the values in the series.

The following code shows how to create and add elements to a DateTimeStackedAreaSeries.

DateTimeStackedAreaSeries stackedAreaSeries = new DateTimeStackedAreaSeries();
DateTimeStackedAreaSeriesElement areaSeriesElement1 = new DateTimeStackedAreaSeriesElement("Website A");
areaSeriesElement1.Values.Add(51, new DateTime(2004, 1, 1));
areaSeriesElement1.Values.Add(99, new DateTime(2004, 1, 2));
areaSeriesElement1.Values.Add(42, new DateTime(2004, 1, 3));
DateTimeStackedAreaSeriesElement areaSeriesElement2 = new DateTimeStackedAreaSeriesElement("Website B");
areaSeriesElement2.Values.Add(11, new DateTime(2004, 1, 1));
areaSeriesElement2.Values.Add(30, new DateTime(2004, 1, 2));
areaSeriesElement2.Values.Add(22, new DateTime(2004, 1, 3));
stackedAreaSeries.Add(areaSeriesElement1);
stackedAreaSeries.Add(areaSeriesElement2);        

Dim MyStackedAreaSeries As DateTimeStackedAreaSeries = New DateTimeStackedAreaSeries()
Dim MyAreaSeriesElement1 As DateTimeStackedAreaSeriesElement = New DateTimeStackedAreaSeriesElement("Website A")
MyAreaSeriesElement1.Values.Add(51, New Date(2004, 1, 1))
MyAreaSeriesElement1.Values.Add(99, New Date(2004, 1, 2))
MyAreaSeriesElement1.Values.Add(42, New Date(2004, 1, 3))
Dim MyAreaSeriesElement2 As DateTimeStackedAreaSeriesElement = New DateTimeStackedAreaSeriesElement("Website B")
MyAreaSeriesElement2.Values.Add(11, New Date(2004, 1, 1))
MyAreaSeriesElement2.Values.Add(30, New Date(2004, 1, 2))

MyStackedAreaSeries.Add(MyAreaSeriesElement2)

IndexedStackedAreaSeries

An IndexedStackedAreaSeries is a collection of IndexedStackedAreaSeriesElement that will be plotted as a StackedAreaSeries in indexed order. An IndexedStackedAreaSeries uses an IndexedXAxis as the XAxis type and a NumericYAxis as the YAxis type.

The following code shows how to create and add elements to an IndexedStackedAreaSeries.

IndexedStackedAreaSeries areaSeries = new IndexedStackedAreaSeries();
IndexedStackedAreaSeriesElement seriesElement1 = new IndexedStackedAreaSeriesElement("Website A");
seriesElement1.Values.Add(new float[] { 5, 7, 9, 6 });
IndexedStackedAreaSeriesElement seriesElement2 = new IndexedStackedAreaSeriesElement("Website B");
seriesElement2.Values.Add(new float[] { 4, 2, 5, 8 });
areaSeries.Add(seriesElement1);
areaSeries.Add(seriesElement2);        

Dim MyAreaSeries As IndexedStackedAreaSeries = New IndexedStackedAreaSeries()
Dim MySeriesElement1 As IndexedStackedAreaSeriesElement = New IndexedStackedAreaSeriesElement("Website A")
MySeriesElement1.Values.Add(New Single() {5, 7, 9, 6})
Dim MySeriesElement2 As IndexedStackedAreaSeriesElement = New IndexedStackedAreaSeriesElement("Website B")
