ConvertToVerticalPixels()

Definition

Used to convert the cursor position (pixels) to device pixels represented on the Y axis of the chart. This method would only be needed if the value you are given is provided in WPF pixel point (such as the data point used in OnMouseDown), but you would need the value in the chart’s rendered pixels. This is useful when handling drawing tools and charts which would have multiple chart panels.

Method Return Value

An int value representing the converted value in device pixels.

Syntax

ConvertToVerticalPixels(ChartControl chartControl, ChartPanel chartPanel, double wpfY)
