    BackgroundFillStyle and BorderStyle
    In This Topic

    Each content panel has two properties called BorderStyle and BackgroundFillStyle that allow you to set a border and fill style applied on the panel background. By default both are set to null indicating that the panel does not have a background and border. The following picture shows a numeric display panel with applied round border and black background:

    In order to change the border style you need to create an instance of one of the following types:

    Border Type Description
    NStrokeBorderStyle Applies single outline (stroke) to the panel
    NEdgeBorderStyle  Applies a border style consisting of three stripes with controllable filling and width to the panel

    The following code shows how to apply a border and background fill style to a panel:

    C#
    Copy Code
    NNumericDisplayPanel numericDisplay = new NNumericDisplayPanel();
    numericDisplay.BorderStyle = new NEdgeBorderStyle();
    numericDisplay.BackgroundFillStyle = new NColorFillStyle(Color.LightGray);
    numericDisplay.Value = 123456.789;
    nChartControl1.Panels.Add(numericDisplay);
    
    Visual Basic
    Copy Code
    NNumericDisplayPanel numericDisplay = new NNumericDisplayPanel();
    numericDisplay.BorderStyle = new NEdgeBorderStyle();
    numericDisplay.BackgroundFillStyle = new NColorFillStyle(Color.LightGray);
    numericDisplay.Value = 123456.789;
    nChartControl1.Panels.Add(numericDisplay);
