Radar Chart Using Lines

The chart below demonstrates a Radar chart using lines.

A Radar chart draws the y value in each data set along a radar line (the x value is ignored except for labels). The settings for the radar chart are similar to the Polar chart, except that a few properties have different settings. Set the following properties to obtain the result of a Radar chart.

ChartType

Controls the style of the chart. Set this property to Radar to create a standard line chart.

Reversed

Determines the order in which the series entries of each ChartGroup appear in the legend. By setting this to False, the legend will be ordered by the default. If it is set to True, the order of the legend items will be reversed. In this sample, the Reversed property is set to False, however the Visible property is also set to False which means it will not be displayed at this time.

ShowOutline

Determines whether figures drawn should be outlined in the PlotArea ForeColor. In this case, we set this property equal to True.

Stacked

Determines whether the chart should stack the data. Set the Stacked property to False.

Use3D

Determines whether 3D effects are used for charting the data in the ChartGroup. In this example, this property will be set to False.

Visible

Determines whether the ChartGroup is visible. Set this property to True so that the chart data will be displayed in the plot area of the chart.

Set the following Radar class properties:

Degrees

Determines whether the Start value reflects angles in degrees (True) or radians (False) for Radar charts. Set this property to True.

Filled

Determines whether Radar charts should be filled. Set this property to False.

Start

Determines the starting angle of Radar charts. This example has the starting angle set to 0.

The LineStyle can be modified by using code or using the ChartDataSeries Collection Editor. For more information on how to modify these properties, see ChartDataSeries Collection Editor.
