Hi all,

When i try to use below code

MIDL

ChartType = "line";
           chart1.ChartAreas["Default"].AxisX.ArrowStyle = AxisArrowStyle.SharpTriangle;
           chart1.ChartAreas["Default"].AxisY.ArrowStyle = AxisArrowStyle.SharpTriangle;

I get the following exception, what could be the problem ??

A chart element with the name 'Default' could not be found in the 'ChartAreaCollection'.

Solution 1

Make sure an area named 'Default' does exist in the chart areas collection of chart1.
Either this is completely missing or the name is different.

When designing your chart in the WinForms designer, you must modify the property called ChartAreas. The default area that is created is called "Default". You seem to have changed it to something different. So what you could do is: Change "Default" in your code or just rename the chart area in your designer to "Default"
