Chart for WinForms - Create a Model for a Custom Chart Element

This example illustrates how to create and register a model (the CustomPointColorizerModel class in this example) for a custom chart element (the CustomPointColorizer class in this example).

A user configures chart element model properties when modifying chart element properties in the Chart Designer. Model changes apply to a corresponding chart element when the user clicks OK. The Chart Control provides models for existing chart elements. If you create a custom element (a colorizer in this example), you should create and register a model for this element to allow users to edit its options.

See the Chart Designer for End-Users help document for more information.
