-- I have a .NET 3.5 WPF app (working on it in VS2010). On one of the windows, is a grid that is populated with data from an in-memory LINQ to SQL object (the hard way, in code instead of in bindings.)
I am trying to drop a simple line graph underneath it, and am struggling to find a good example. Most web sites I've found are either talking about creating a chart completely from scratch in XAML. I haven't seen any examples of creating a chart and populating it via C#. I'm using the WPF Chart control, which seems pretty good. My datasets are pretty small, so I was thinking I'd just create a PointCollection and populate it with Point objects that represent each data point, but since my graph is a series over time, I can't see how I get a value (Y) and date (X) value into a point in .NET 3.5. I would then assign the PointCollection to a Series that I've already created, and set the minimum and maximum values for the Axes accordingly. (My X axis is already set up with dates, and that seems to work. Just can't get the Point to accept a date.) I feel like I'm on the wrong track and there should be some better way. Can I just use the DataContext of the chart directly? Am I missing something basic? There doesn't seem to be any good examples of doing this anywhere that I can find.
