Chart.Clone Method

Creates an exact copy of the current Chart object.

Namespace: MindFusion.Charting
Assembly: MindFusion.Charting

 Syntax

C#

public virtual Object Clone ()

Visual Basic

Public Overridable Function Clone () As Object

 Return Value

The new chart object.

 Remarks

The method creates an exact copy of the current chart - all appearance settings and data is copied. It is overridden by all chart classes - the returned object must be cast to the chart type that you clone.

All properties, labels and data are cloned. The method is available only when you use the chart object programmatically.

 Example

C#

MindFusion.Charting.RadarChart myChart =
    new MindFusion.Charting.RadarChart(RadarType.Radar2D);

// Chart settings follow
MindFusion.Charting.RadarChart clonedChart =
    myChart.Clone() as MindFusion.Charting.RadarChart;
