.NET Mac Chart Background and Frame

Background and Frame

The control offers various options to control the appearance of the background and frame. This helps to improve both the visual appeal and readability of the chart and gauge content. Background and frame styles can be applied to the entire chart control, as well as individual chart objects line legends, and labels. Following are pictures that demonstrate different background and frame style options.

Best Practices for using Backgrounds and Frames

Consistency with Application Design and Company Branding
Ensure the background reflects the company’s branding and application UI design, including colors, and background logos. This allows the control to blend nicely with the other UI elements.

Contrast
Choose a background color that provides sufficient contrast for the chart contents.

Simple Frame
Choose a simple frame, like a standard single-color border frame over frames with excessive visual effects (like embossed borders), especially if the chart is not meant for presentational purposes.
