Thanks Matt,
One more question, I use to set a plots opacity by defining the color using:
Color.FromArgb(Math.Min(255, Math.Max(0, Convert.ToInt32(opacity * 0.01 * 255))), color)
I tried setting the opacity by:
Plots[0].Brush.Opacity = 0.5d;
but it didn't like that. Could you point me in the right direction?

The Plots brush is frozen when it is instantiated , which means it's read-only and cannot be modified at runtime.
If you wish to change a plot's brush property, you need to first clone the desired plot brush, make the changes, and then make sure you call Freeze() on that new brush to prevent further access issues
Attached is a complete example of how to change the opacity of entire plot series.Code:Brush myBrush = Plots[0].Brush.Clone(); myBrush.Opacity = 0.5f; myBrush.Freeze(); Plots[0].Brush = myBrush;
