Line Chart in Blazor Charts Component
11 Mar 202524 minutes to read
Line
Line Chart represents and visualizes the time-dependent data to show the trends at equal intervals.
You can learn how to create a line chart using Blazor Charts by watching the video below.
To render a Line series in your chart, define the series Type as Line in your chart configuration. This indicates that the data should be represented as a line chart, which is ideal for visualizing trends over time or across categories.
@using Syncfusion.Blazor.Charts
<SfChart>
<ChartPrimaryXAxis ValueType="Syncfusion.Blazor.Charts.ValueType.Category"></ChartPrimaryXAxis>
<ChartSeriesCollection>
<ChartSeries DataSource="@SalesDetails" XName="X" YName="Y" Type="ChartSeriesType.Line">
</ChartSeries>
</ChartSeriesCollection>
</SfChart>
@code{
public class ChartData
{
public string X { get; set;}
public double Y {get; set;}
}
public List<ChartData> SalesDetails = new List<ChartData>
{
new ChartData { X= "Jan", Y= 35 },
new ChartData { X= "Feb", Y= 28 },
new ChartData { X= "Mar", Y= 34 },
new ChartData { X= "Apr", Y= 32 },
new ChartData { X= "May", Y= 40 },
new ChartData { X= "Jun", Y= 32 },
new ChartData { X= "Jul", Y= 35 },
new ChartData { X= "Aug", Y= 55 },
new ChartData { X= "Sep", Y= 38 },
new ChartData { X= "Oct", Y= 30 },
new ChartData { X= "Nov", Y= 25 },
new ChartData { X= "Dec", Y= 32 }
};
}

Binding data with series
You can bind data to the chart using the DataSource property within the series configuration. The DataSource value can be set using either SfDataManager property values or a list of business objects. More information on data binding can be found here. To display the data correctly, map the fields from the data to the chart series’ XName and YName properties.
@using Syncfusion.Blazor.Charts
<SfChart>
<ChartPrimaryXAxis ValueType="Syncfusion.Blazor.Charts.ValueType.Category"></ChartPrimaryXAxis>
<ChartSeriesCollection>
<ChartSeries DataSource="@SalesDetails" XName="X" YName="Y" Type="ChartSeriesType.Line">
</ChartSeries>
</ChartSeriesCollection>
</SfChart>
@code{
public class ChartData
{
public string X { get; set;}
public double Y {get; set;}
}
public List<ChartData> SalesDetails = new List<ChartData>
{
new ChartData { X= "Jan", Y= 35 },
new ChartData { X= "Feb", Y= 28 },
new ChartData { X= "Mar", Y= 34 },
new ChartData { X= "Apr", Y= 32 },
new ChartData { X= "May", Y= 40 },
new ChartData { X= "Jun", Y= 32 },
new ChartData { X= "Jul", Y= 35 },
new ChartData { X= "Aug", Y= 55 },
new ChartData { X= "Sep", Y= 38 },
new ChartData { X= "Oct", Y= 30 },
new ChartData { X= "Nov", Y= 25 },
new ChartData { X= "Dec", Y= 32 }
};
}Series customization
The following properties can be used to customize the Line series.
Fill
The Fill property determines the color applied to the series.
@using Syncfusion.Blazor.Charts
<SfChart>
<ChartPrimaryXAxis ValueType="Syncfusion.Blazor.Charts.ValueType.Category"></ChartPrimaryXAxis>
<ChartSeriesCollection>
<ChartSeries DataSource="@SalesDetails" Fill="blue" XName="X" YName="Y" Type="ChartSeriesType.Line">
</ChartSeries>
</ChartSeriesCollection>
</SfChart>
@code{
public class ChartData
{
public string X { get; set;}
public double Y {get; set;}
}
public List<ChartData> SalesDetails = new List<ChartData>
{
new ChartData { X= "Jan", Y= 35 },
new ChartData { X= "Feb", Y= 28 },
new ChartData { X= "Mar", Y= 34 },
new ChartData { X= "Apr", Y= 32 },
new ChartData { X= "May", Y= 40 },
new ChartData { X= "Jun", Y= 32 },
new ChartData { X= "Jul", Y= 35 },
new ChartData { X= "Aug", Y= 55 },
new ChartData { X= "Sep", Y= 38 },
new ChartData { X= "Oct", Y= 30 },
new ChartData { X= "Nov", Y= 25 },
new ChartData { X= "Dec", Y= 32 }
};
}The Fill property can be used to apply a gradient color to the line series. By configuring this property with gradient values, you can create a visually appealing effect in which the color transitions smoothly from one shade to another.
@using Syncfusion.Blazor.Charts
<SfChart>
<ChartPrimaryXAxis ValueType="Syncfusion.Blazor.Charts.ValueType.Category"></ChartPrimaryXAxis>
<ChartSeriesCollection>
<ChartSeries DataSource="@SalesDetails" Fill="url(#grad1)" XName="X" YName="Y" Type="ChartSeriesType.Line">
</ChartSeries>
</ChartSeriesCollection>
</SfChart>
<svg style="height: 0">
<defs>
<linearGradient id="grad1" x1="0%" y1="0%" x2="0%" y2="100%">
<stop offset="20%" style="stop-color:orange;stop-opacity:1" />
<stop offset="100%" style="stop-color:black;stop-opacity:1" />
</linearGradient>
</defs>
</svg>
@code{
public class ChartData
{
public string X { get; set;}
public double Y {get; set;}
}
public List<ChartData> SalesDetails = new List<ChartData>
{
new ChartData { X= "Jan", Y= 35 },
new ChartData { X= "Feb", Y= 28 },
new ChartData { X= "Mar", Y= 34 },
new ChartData { X= "Apr", Y= 32 },
new ChartData { X= "May", Y= 40 },
new ChartData { X= "Jun", Y= 32 },
new ChartData { X= "Jul", Y= 35 },
new ChartData { X= "Aug", Y= 55 },
new ChartData { X= "Sep", Y= 38 },
new ChartData { X= "Oct", Y= 30 },
new ChartData { X= "Nov", Y= 25 },
new ChartData { X= "Dec", Y= 32 }
};
}Opacity
Opacity property specifies the transparency level of the Fill. Adjusting this property allows you to control how opaque or transparent the fill color of the series appears.
@using Syncfusion.Blazor.Charts
<SfChart>
<ChartPrimaryXAxis ValueType="Syncfusion.Blazor.Charts.ValueType.Category"></ChartPrimaryXAxis>
<ChartSeriesCollection>
<ChartSeries DataSource="@SalesDetails" Opacity="0.5" XName="X" YName="Y" Type="ChartSeriesType.Line">

</ChartSeriesCollection>
</SfChart>
@code{
public class ChartData
{
public string X { get; set;}
public double Y {get; set;}
}
public List<ChartData> SalesDetails = new List<ChartData>
{
new ChartData { X= "Jan", Y= 35 },
new ChartData { X= "Feb", Y= 28 },
new ChartData { X= "Mar", Y= 34 },
new ChartData { X= "Apr", Y= 32 },
new ChartData { X= "May", Y= 40 },

<ChartPrimaryXAxis ValueType="Syncfusion.Blazor.Charts.ValueType.Category"></ChartPrimaryXAxis>
<ChartSeriesCollection>
<ChartSeries DataSource="@SalesDetails" DashArray="5,5" XName="X" YName="Y" Type="ChartSeriesType.Line">
</ChartSeries>
</ChartSeriesCollection>
</SfChart>
@code{
public class ChartData

<ChartSeriesCollection>
<ChartSeries DataSource="@SalesDetails" Width="3" XName="X" YName="Y" Type="ChartSeriesType.Line">

new ChartData { X= "Dec", Y= 32 }
};
}Multicolored line

@using Syncfusion.Blazor.Charts
<SfChart>
<ChartPrimaryXAxis ValueType="Syncfusion.Blazor.Charts.ValueType.Category"></ChartPrimaryXAxis>
<ChartSeriesCollection>

</SfChart>
@code{
public class ChartData
{
public string X { get; set;}
public double Y {get; set;}
public string Color { get; set; }
}
public List<ChartData> SalesDetails = new List<ChartData>
{
new ChartData { X= "Jan", Y= 35, Color="#1f77b4" },

};
}Empty points
