The value returned is the [ChartType] for the chart. This is the chart type that will be used for newly created series if you do not explicitly specify a ChartType in the call to [CreateSeries|SeriesCollection.CreateSeries]. However, there may be series within the chart that are of a different type than the chart itself - for example, you may have a Line chart with one line series and one column series.

The value returned is the ChartType for the chart. This is the chart type that will be used for newly created series if you do not explicitly specify a ChartType in the call to CreateSeries. However, there may be series within the chart that are of a different type than the chart itself - for example, you may have a Line chart with one line series and one column series.

If all of the series in the chart are of the same ChartType, then this property will return that type, and any series created with the SeriesCollection.CreateSeries(string)

method

will

also

be

of

that

type.

You

can

create

a

series

that

is

not

of

the

chart's

ChartType

by

using

the

SeriesCollection.CreateSeries(string,

ChartType,

AxisType)

method.

Setting

the

Chart's

ChartType

will

convert

every

series

within

the

chart

to

be

of

the

specified

type.

If

the

new

ChartType

supports

series

on

the

secondary

axis,

then

the

AxisType

for

each

series

will

be

preserved.

If

the

new

ChartType

does

not

support

series

on

the

secondary

axis,

such

as

surface

or

3d

charts,

then

all

series

will

be

moved

to

the

primary

axis.
