As described in the introduction, NetAdvantage Reporting is XAML-based.
I therefor would think that it is possible to add any XAML-based control to a report.
My question then is. Is it possible to add the XamPieChart-control to a report?
If so. How?
Hi Christian,
Unfortunately it's not possible for you to do it. We are using the XamDataChart ourselves as part of the XAML rendering but we don't have a way to let users add their own XAML controls. We have it on our backlog but we don't have a date for that feature yet.

Ok.
I was looking at the gallery for the XamDataChart and I was wondering what the possibilities for styling the XamDataChart in a report is?
When I look at the charts in the report-designer, it seems pretty basic...
Hi,
Yes, you can style the Chart using the property window. You have several style & layout properties you can tweak.
Currently, applying a XAML style to the chart is not supported.
Thanks,
Leo
Just to summarize.
I won't be able to insert a PieChart (of any kind) on a report now, or in the near future?
I can't make use of all of the features of the XamDataChart (styling)?
11.2 won't have support for PieChart, it's in our list for 12.1, but we haven't set the full feature set yet. If you need a PieChart, you could use the ASP.NET/Windows Forms one, create a web endpoint that returns the chart as an image, and use an image with an URL in the report designer.
You can only style XamDataChart with the properties that are exposed in the Reporting Designer, so you cannot use style it in the way you could style it in XAML.
