How to put a chart in an AddOn

[jader]

I want to put a chart in a custom AddOn (next to some non-chart stuff) to do some charting not based on time series. What controls would I use in the XAML and/or code to accomplish this? I have all the text boxes and labels working in the AddOn, but can't seem to figure out how to add in charts.

Or asked another way, how do I create non-time series charts with the look and feel of NT8?
And a bonus question: how do I create non-time series 3d charts?

Thanks!

Hello Jader,

Thank you for your inquiry.

AddOns do not have an OnRender() method so you would be unable to draw anything in an AddOn.

However, what you could do is develop your own custom chart styles or bars types in order to visually develop a chart in the way you want.

For further information about chart styles and bars types, please take a look at the following two links below:
