Add Import Namespaces

Open the ~/_Imports.razor file and import the Syncfusion.Blazor and Syncfusion.Blazor.Chart3D namespaces.

~/_Imports.razor

@using Syncfusion.Blazor
@using Syncfusion.Blazor.Chart3D

Register Syncfusion^® Blazor Service

Register the Syncfusion^® Blazor Service in the ~/Program.cs file of the Blazor WebAssembly App.

Blazor WebAssembly App

using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Components.Web;
using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Components.WebAssembly.Hosting;
using Syncfusion.Blazor;

var builder = WebAssemblyHostBuilder.CreateDefault(args);
builder.RootComponents.Add<App>("#app");
builder.RootComponents.Add<HeadOutlet>("head::after");

builder.Services.AddScoped(sp => new HttpClient { BaseAddress = new Uri(builder.HostEnvironment.BaseAddress) });

builder.Services.AddSyncfusionBlazor();
await builder.Build().RunAsync();
....

Add script resources

The script can be accessed from NuGet through Static Web Assets. Reference the script in the <head> of the ~/index.html file.

<head>
    ....
    <script src="_content/Syncfusion.Blazor.Core/scripts/syncfusion-blazor.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
</head>

NOTE

Check out the Adding Script Reference topic to learn different approaches for adding script references in Blazor application.

Add Blazor 3D Chart Component

Add the Syncfusion^® Blazor 3D Chart component in the ~/Pages/Index.razor file.

RAZOR

<SfChart3D>

</SfChart3D>

• Press Ctrl+F5 (Windows) or ⌘+F5 (macOS) to launch the application. This will render the Syncfusion^® Blazor 3D Chart component in the default web browser.

Populate Blazor 3D Chart with data

To bind data for the 3D chart component, you can assign a IEnumerable object to the DataSource property. It can also be provided as an instance of the DataManager.

RAZOR

public class SalesInfo
{
    public string Month { get; set; }
    public double SalesValue { get; set; }
}

public List<SalesInfo> Sales = new List<SalesInfo>
{
    new SalesInfo { Month = "Jan", SalesValue = 35 },
    new SalesInfo { Month = "Feb", SalesValue = 28 },
    new SalesInfo { Month = "Mar", SalesValue = 34 },
    new SalesInfo { Month = "Apr", SalesValue = 32 },
    new SalesInfo { Month = "May", SalesValue = 40 },
    new SalesInfo { Month = "Jun", SalesValue = 32 },
    new SalesInfo { Month = "Jul", SalesValue = 35 }
};

Now, map the data fields Month and Sales to the series XName and YName properties, then set the data to the DataSource property, and the chart type to Column because we will be viewing the data in a column chart.

RAZOR

<SfChart3D>
    <Chart3DPrimaryXAxis ValueType="Syncfusion.Blazor.Chart3D.ValueType.Category"></Chart3DPrimaryXAxis>
    <Chart3DSeriesCollection>
        <Chart3DSeries DataSource="@Sales" XName="Month" YName="SalesValue" Type="Chart3DSeriesType.Column">
        </Chart3DSeries>
    </Chart3DSeriesCollection>
</SfChart3D>

@code {
    public class SalesInfo
    {
        public string Month { get; set;}
        public double SalesValue { get; set;}
    }

    public List<SalesInfo> Sales = new List<SalesInfo>
    {
        new SalesInfo { Month = "Jan", SalesValue = 35 },
        new SalesInfo { Month = "Feb", SalesValue = 28 },
        new SalesInfo { Month = "Mar", SalesValue = 34 },
        new SalesInfo { Month = "Apr", SalesValue = 32 },
        new SalesInfo { Month = "May", SalesValue = 40 },
        new SalesInfo { Month = "Jun", SalesValue = 32 },
        new SalesInfo { Month = "Jul", SalesValue = 35 }
    };
}

Add 3D Chart title

Using the Title property, you can add a title to the chart and the axes to provide the user with quick information about the data plotted in the chart.

RAZOR

<SfChart3D Title="Sales Analysis">
    <Chart3DPrimaryXAxis Title="Month" ValueType="Syncfusion.Blazor.Chart3D.ValueType.Category"></Chart3DPrimaryXAxis>
    <Chart3DPrimaryYAxis Title="Sales in Dollar"></Chart3DPrimaryYAxis>
    <Chart3DSeriesCollection>
        <Chart3DSeries DataSource="@Sales" XName="Month" YName="SalesValue" Type="Chart3DSeriesType.Column">
        </Chart3DSeries>
    </Chart3DSeriesCollection>
</SfChart3D>

Enable legend

You can use legend for the 3D Chart by setting the Visible property to true in Chart3DLegendSettings. The legend name can be changed by using the Name property in the series.

RAZOR

<SfChart3D Title="Sales Analysis">
    <Chart3DPrimaryXAxis ValueType="Syncfusion.Blazor.Chart3D.ValueType.Category"></Chart3DPrimaryXAxis>
    <Chart3DLegendSettings Visible="true"></Chart3DLegendSettings>
    <Chart3DSeriesCollection>
        <Chart3DSeries DataSource="@Sales" Name="Sales" XName="Month" YName="SalesValue" Type="Chart3DSeriesType.Column">
        </Chart3DSeries>
    </Chart3DSeriesCollection>
</SfChart3D>

Add data label

You can add data labels to improve the readability of the 3D Chart. This can be achieved by setting the Visible property to true in the Chart3DDataLabel. Now, the data labels are arranged smartly based on series.

RAZOR

<SfChart3D Title="Sales Analysis">
    <Chart3DPrimaryXAxis ValueType="Syncfusion.Blazor.Chart3D.ValueType.Category"></Chart3DPrimaryXAxis>
    <Chart3DSeriesCollection>
        <Chart3DSeries DataSource="@Sales" XName="Month" YName="SalesValue" Type="Chart3DSeriesType.Column">
            <Chart3DDataLabel Visible="true"></Chart3DDataLabel>
        </Chart3DSeries>
    </Chart3DSeriesCollection>
</SfChart3D>

Enable tooltip

The tooltip is useful when you cannot display information by using the data labels due to space constraints. You can enable tooltip by setting the Enable property in Chart3DTooltipSettings to true.

RAZOR

<SfChart3D Title="Sales Analysis">
    <Chart3DPrimaryXAxis Title="Month" ValueType="Syncfusion.Blazor.Chart3D.ValueType.Category"></Chart3DPrimaryXAxis>
    <Chart3DPrimaryYAxis Title="Sales in Dollar"></Chart3DPrimaryYAxis>
    <Chart3DTooltipSettings Enable="true"></Chart3DTooltipSettings>
    <Chart3DSeriesCollection>
        <Chart3DSeries DataSource="@Sales" XName="Month" YName="SalesValue" Type="Chart3DSeriesType.Column">
        </Chart3DSeries>
    </Chart3DSeriesCollection>
</SfChart3D>
