Remarks

A moving animation is used to move chart elements from a specified start position to the final charted position. When moving, some elements will be drawn with a scaling effect (for example, data points with markers will have a scaling effect while moving). Other chart elements, such as legends and titles, will only have a moving effect applied.

Chart elements that can be animated with a MovingAnimation are:

  • Series.
  • Data points.
  • Markers.
  • Data point labels.
  • Titles.
  • Axis labels.
  • Legends.

Svg and Flash Rendering Engines

Animation is supported by two rendering engines: Svg and Flash. Setting to either of these formats is done through the ImageType property. These two formats animate basic shapes on two different ways but result animation is almost identical for both formats. This is the list of differences between Flash and Svg Animation:

  1. Svg Rendering engine does not support animation with gradient colors. StartGradientColor property is not used for SVG animation and is ignored.
  2. Svg rendering engine does not support hatch styles.
  3. Flash rendering engine does not support intersection of animation intervals for fading or growing/moving animations.
  4. Svg and Flash rendering engine may have a different behavior if two animation styles are used on the same chart element.
