What problem does it solve?

This Skill eliminates common errors and hallucinations when implementing the DevExpress WPF ChartControl, including diagram-series compatibility mismatches, case-sensitive data binding failures, misconfigured axes and scale types, and broken interactivity, ensuring developers generate accurate, performant charts without relying on scattered or outdated documentation.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Full 2D Series Support: Covers all 2D series types (bar, line, area, pie, financial, polar, radar, etc.) with clear compatibility rules for XYDiagram2D, SimpleDiagram2D, PolarDiagram2D, and RadarDiagram2D.
• Complete Configuration Guidance: Includes step-by-step setup for NuGet packages, data binding (including MVVM dynamic series generation), axis and scale type configuration, data aggregation, legend customization, tooltips, crosshair cursors, and end-user selection.
• Use Case: A developer building a financial dashboard can use this Skill to implement a candlestick chart with OHLC aggregation, a secondary y-axis for trading volume, and interactive crosshair labels, all while avoiding common runtime errors.

Quick Start

Use this skill to add a formatted bar chart bound to an ObservableCollection of regional sales data to your WPF application, with a title, right-aligned legend, and crosshair labels showing values in millions.
