Adding Summary Values

MindFusion.Charting supports four summary types - average, sum, minimum and maximum. All of them are members of the Summary enumeration. Choose the summary you need and add it to the SummaryValues list.

Summary values are drawn differently in the different chart types:

  • In line charts they are lines
  • In scatter charts they are shapes
  • In area charts they are polygons
  • In bar charts they are either part of each bar (in stacked bars) or a separate bar in a group / cluster of bars
  • Pie / doughnut charts do not have summaries
  • Radar / polar charts do not have summaries

The summary operations are performed on all values from all graphics.

Custom summary values together with their text description are added with the AddCustomSummary method.

There is no limit for the number of summary values you can add to a chart.
