Create PIE chart in asp.net using Microsoft .NET Charting control 3.5

In this article we will create PIE chart using Microsoft .NET Charting control 3.5. In some application we need
to display pie chart as a part of report and using Microsoft Charting control its very easy, and more over
this .NET Charting control is free to use and distribute.

Step 1: First Download the .NET Charting control from here.

Setp 2: Add the reference to your project by right click on the solution explorer of your project.

Setp 3: Write the below code in which event you want to draw Pie Chart.

private void CreateChart()
//Create some dummy DataRandom random = new Random();
for (int pointIndex = 0; pointIndex < 10; pointIndex++)
"Series1"].Points.AddY(random.Next(20, 100));
//Set the chart typeChart1.Series["Series1"].ChartType = SeriesChartType.Pie;// Set the bar widthChart1.Series["Series1"]["PointWidth"] = "0.5";// Show data points labelsChart1.Series["Series1"].IsValueShownAsLabel = true;// Set data points label styleChart1.Series["Series1"]["BarLabelStyle"] = "Center";// Show chart as 3DChart1.ChartAreas["ChartArea1"].Area3DStyle.Enable3D = true;// Draw chart as 3D CylinderChart1.Series["Series1"]["DrawingStyle"] = "Cylinder";

Note: For more information about dowloading and installing information refer this article .NET Framework 3.5 ASP.Net Chart Control Example

Dont forget to add namespace

1	using System.Web.UI.DataVisualization.Charting;

If you run the project you will see you pie chart like this

Full Code of your .cs file using C# Example. In the below example we have calling the method in the page load event.

01	using System;

02	using System.Web;

03	using System.Web.UI;

04	using System.Web.UI.WebControls;

05	using System.Web.UI.DataVisualization.Charting;

06

07	public partial class _Default : System.Web.UI.Page

08

{

09	protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)

10

{

11	if (!IsPostBack)

12

{

13	CreateChart();

14

}

15

}

16	private void CreateChart()

17

{

18	//Create some dummy Data

19	Random random = new Random();

20	for (int pointIndex = 0; pointIndex < 10; pointIndex++)

21

{

22	Chart1.Series["Series1"].Points.AddY(random.Next(20, 100));

23	}//Set the chart type

24	Chart1.Series["Series1"].ChartType = SeriesChartType.Pie;// Set the Pie width

25	Chart1.Series["Series1"]["PointWidth"] = "0.5";// Show data points labels

26	Chart1.Series["Series1"].IsValueShownAsLabel = true;// Set data points label style

27	Chart1.Series["Series1"]["BarLabelStyle"] = "Center";// Show chart as 3D

28	Chart1.ChartAreas["ChartArea1"].Area3DStyle.Enable3D = true;// Draw chart as 3D

29	Chart1.Series["Series1"]["DrawingStyle"] = "Cylinder";

30

}

31

}

And the same above code in VB.NET

01	Imports System

02	Imports System.Web

03	Imports System.Web.UI

04	Imports System.Web.UI.WebControls

05	Imports System.Web.UI.DataVisualization.Charting

06

07	Public Partial Class _Default

08	Inherits System.Web.UI.Page

09	Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)

10	If Not IsPostBack Then

11	CreateChart()

12

End If

13

End Sub

14	Private Sub CreateChart()

15	'Create some dummy Data

16	Dim random As New Random()

17	For pointIndex As Integer = 0 To 9

18	Chart1.Series("Series1").Points.AddY(random.[Next](20, 100))

19

Next

20	'Set the chart type

21	Chart1.Series("Series1").ChartType = SeriesChartType.Pie

22	' Set the PIE width

23	Chart1.Series("Series1")("PointWidth") = "0.5"

24	' Show data points labels

25	Chart1.Series("Series1").IsValueShownAsLabel = True

26	' Set data points label style

27	Chart1.Series("Series1")("BarLabelStyle") = "Center"

28	' Show chart as 3D

29	Chart1.ChartAreas("ChartArea1").Area3DStyle.Enable3D = True

30	' Draw chart as 3D

31	Chart1.Series("Series1")("DrawingStyle") = "Cylinder"

32

End Sub

33

34

End Class

You can change the data source to any mode. you can also get the data from Database and set its chart series property.
