    Quick Start
    本主题中

    This quick start is intended to guide you through a step-by-step process of creating a simple Sunburst application and running the same in Visual Studio.

    The following image displays how a basic Sunburst chart appears after completing the steps mentioned above.

    To quickly get started with Sunburst chart and observe how it appears on running the application, follow these steps:

    Add Sunburst Chart to the Application

    1. Create a WPF Application (.NET Framework/.NET Core) for .NET Framework version and .NET versions in Visual Studio.
    2. Drag and drop the C1Sunburst control to the MainWindow.
      The following dlls or Nuget Packages are automatically added to the application:
      C1.WPF.4.6.2 or C1.WPF.Core for .NET version
      C1.WPF.DX.4.6.2 or C1.WPF.DX for .NET version
      C1.WPF.FlexChart.4.6.2 or C1.WPF.Chart for .NET version.

      The XAML markup resembles the following code in the <Grid></Grid> tags.
    3. <c1:C1Sunburst x:Name="flexPie" 
               Binding="Value" 
               BindingName="Name" 
               HorizontalAlignment="Left" 
               Height="300" 
               VerticalAlignment="Top" 
               Width="300">
    <c1:C1Sunburst.ItemsSource>
        <c1:FlexPieSliceCollection>
            <c1:FlexPieSlice Name="Slice1" Value="1"/>
            <c1:FlexPieSlice Name="Slice2" Value="2"/>
            <c1:FlexPieSlice Name="Slice3" Value="3"/>
            <c1:FlexPieSlice Name="Slice4" Value="4"/>
        </c1:FlexPieSliceCollection>
    </c1:C1Sunburst.ItemsSource>
</c1:C1Sunburst>

    Bind Sunburst Chart to a Data Source

    In this step, first create a class DataService that generates random sales data for four quarters, namely Q1, Q2, Q3, and Q4 in 2013, 2014, and 2015. Next, bind Sunburst to the created class using the ItemsSource property provided by the FlexChartBase class. Then, specify numeric values and labels for the Sunburst slices using the Binding and the BindingName property, respectively of the FlexChartBase and the C1FlexPie class.

    1. Add a class, DataService and add the following code.
      Imports System.Collections.Generic
Imports System.Linq
Imports System.Text
Imports System.Threading.Tasks

Public Class DataService
    Private rnd As New Random()
    Shared _default As DataService

    Public Shared ReadOnly Property Instance() As DataService
        Get
            If _default Is Nothing Then
                _default = New DataService()
            End If

            Return _default
        End Get
    End Property

                                });
                            });
                        }
                        else
                        {

            });

            return items;
        }
    }
}
    2. Add a class, SunburstViewModel and add the following code.
      Imports C1.Chart
Imports System.Linq
Imports System.Collections.Generic
Public Class SunburstViewModel

    Public ReadOnly Property HierarchicalData() As List(Of DataItem)

    Public ReadOnly Property Items() As List(Of DataItem)
        Get
            If _items Is Nothing Then
                _items = New List(Of DataItem)()
            End If

            Return _items
        End Get
    End Property
End Class

Public Class FlatDataItem
    Public Property Year() As String
        Get

    4. Add a class, Converter and add the following code.
      Imports C1.Chart
Imports System.Collections.Generic
Imports System.Globalization
Imports System.Linq
Imports System.Text
Imports System.Threading.Tasks
Imports System.Windows.Data

        If targetType = GetType(Position) Then
            Return DirectCast([Enum].Parse(GetType(Position),
                                           value.ToString()),
                                           Position)
        Else
            Return DirectCast([Enum].Parse(GetType(Palette),

                                           Palette)
        End If
    End Function

    Private Function IValueConverter_Convert(value As Object,
                                             targetType As Type,

namespace SunburstQuickStart
{
    public class EnumToStringConverter : IValueConverter
    {
        public object Convert(object value, Type targetType, object parameter, CultureInfo culture)
        {
            return value.ToString();
        }

        public object ConvertBack(object value, Type targetType, object parameter, CultureInfo culture)
        {
            if (targetType == typeof(Position))
                return (Position)Enum.Parse(typeof(Position), value.ToString());
            else
                return (Palette)Enum.Parse(typeof(Palette), value.ToString());
        }
    }

            </c1:C1Sunburst.DataLabel>
        </c1:C1Sunburst>
    </Grid>
</Window>
