Hi,
I find the UnknownValuePlotting property to fit my exact needs for LineSeries and AreaSeries. The problem is that I need it (or a functional equivalent) for RangeAreaSeries. I am using xamDataChart version 2012.2. Is this a planned feature and is there anything I can do in the meantime to work around this lack of feature?
I am specifically looking to set "don't plot" as a value for this property, as the default behavior seems to be linear interpolation.
Thanks
Discontinuities are not currently supported on that series type, so this would be a feature request. Feel free to submit a feature request for this and we'll see if we can get this in there.

Hi David,
As Graham said, this is currently not supported for the RangeAreaSeries chart type so I went and submitted a product idea for this on your behalf. I have sent your product idea directly to our product management team. Our product team chooses new product ideas for development based on popular feedback from our customer base. Infragistics continues to monitor application development for all of our products, so as trends appear in requested features, we can plan accordingly.
We value your input, and our philosophy is to enhance our toolset based on customer feedback. If your feature is chosen for development, you will be notified at that time. Your reference number for this product idea is PI13030108.
If you would like to follow up on your product idea at a later point, you may contact Developer Support management via email.

Please let me know if you have any questions on this.
Thanks Rob, much appreciated.
Is there any way I can develop a workaround for this myself in the mean time? Would you have any ideas on where I can get started with this?
Thanks again.
Dave
Hi Dave,
I had an idea that I thought might work which involved seperating the data out into seperate series based on which ones are null. For example if I had 5 data points and on the 3rd data point, the values were null. In this case I would seperate the data into two collections. One for points (1, 2) and another for points (4, 5). I would then create a series per generated collection to show the discontinuity that you are looking for. This seemed to work quite well in my tests.
Splitting the data points into two seperate collections means you need to pad the collections with extra data points so it has the same number as the original collection that is bound to the CategoryXAxis. So instead of (1, 2) I need (1, 2, dummy3, dummy4, dummy5). I need the same thing for (4, 5) but the dummy points go in the front instead (dummy1, dummy2, dummy3, 4, 5). This will place the series in the right spot relative to one another on the chart.
I've attached the sample for your consideration. Let me know if you have any questions on this.
