Radar in Blazor Charts Component

11 Mar 202516 minutes to read

Radar

Radar series visualizes data in terms of values and angles. It provides option for visual comparison between several quantitative or qualitative aspects of a situation.

You can learn how to create a Radar chart using Blazor Charts by watching the video below.

To render a radar chart, set the series Type to Radar. To render a Line series in Radar Chart, specify the DrawType property to Line. IsClosed property specifies whether to join start and end point of a line series used in Radar Chart to form a closed path. The default value of IsClosed property is true.

@using Syncfusion.Blazor.Charts

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

    <ChartSeriesCollection>
        <ChartSeries DataSource="@SalesReports" XName="X" YName="Y"
                     Type="ChartSeriesType.Radar" DrawType="ChartDrawType.Line">
        </ChartSeries>
    </ChartSeriesCollection>
</SfChart>

@code{
    public class ChartData
    {
        public double X { get; set; }
        public double Y { get; set; }
    }

    public List<ChartData> SalesReports = new List<ChartData>
	{
        new ChartData{ X= 2005, Y= 28 },
        new ChartData{ X= 2006, Y= 25 },
        new ChartData{ X= 2007, Y= 26 },
        new ChartData{ X= 2008, Y= 27 },
        new ChartData{ X= 2009, Y= 32 },
        new ChartData{ X= 2010, Y= 35 },
        new ChartData{ X= 2011, Y= 30 }
    };
}

Draw type

Similar to the polar chart, use the DrawType property to change the series plotting type in a Radar chart to line, column, area, range column, spline, scatter, stacking area, spline area, or stacking column. The default value of DrawType is Line.

@using Syncfusion.Blazor.Charts

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

    <ChartSeriesCollection>
        <ChartSeries DataSource="@SalesReports" XName="X" YName="Y"
                     Type="ChartSeriesType.Radar" DrawType="ChartDrawType.Line">
        </ChartSeries>
    </ChartSeriesCollection>
</SfChart>

@code{
    public class ChartData
    {
        public double X { get; set; }
        public double Y { get; set; }
    }

    public List<ChartData> SalesReports = new List<ChartData>
	{
        new ChartData{ X= 2005, Y= 28 },
        new ChartData{ X= 2006, Y= 25 },
        new ChartData{ X= 2007, Y= 26 },
        new ChartData{ X= 2008, Y= 27 },
        new ChartData{ X= 2009, Y= 32 },
        new ChartData{ X= 2010, Y= 35 },
        new ChartData{ X= 2011, Y= 30 }
    };
}

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="@SalesReports" XName="X" YName="Y"
                     Type="ChartSeriesType.Radar">
        </ChartSeries>
    </ChartSeriesCollection>
</SfChart>

@code{
    public class ChartData
    {
        public double X { get; set; }
        public double Y { get; set; }
    }

    public List<ChartData> SalesReports = new List<ChartData>
	{
        new ChartData{ X= 2005, Y= 28 },
        new ChartData{ X= 2006, Y= 25 },
        new ChartData{ X= 2007, Y= 26 },
        new ChartData{ X= 2008, Y= 27 },
        new ChartData{ X= 2009, Y= 32 },
        new ChartData{ X= 2010, Y= 35 },
        new ChartData{ X= 2011, Y= 30 }
    };
}

Series customization

Start angle

To customize the start angle of the Radar Chart, use StartAngle property. By default, StartAngle value is 0.

@using Syncfusion.Blazor.Charts

<SfChart>
    <ChartPrimaryXAxis StartAngle="270" ValueType="Syncfusion.Blazor.Charts.ValueType.Category">
    </ChartPrimaryXAxis>

    <ChartSeriesCollection>
        <ChartSeries DataSource="@SalesReports" XName="X" YName="Y"
                     Type="ChartSeriesType.Radar" DrawType="ChartDrawType.Line">
        </ChartSeries>
    </ChartSeriesCollection>
</SfChart>

@code{
    public class ChartData
    {
        public double X { get; set; }
        public double Y { get; set; }
    }

    public List<ChartData> SalesReports = new List<ChartData>
	{
        new ChartData{ X= 2005, Y= 28 },
        new ChartData{ X= 2006, Y= 25 },
        new ChartData{ X= 2007, Y= 26 },
        new ChartData{ X= 2008, Y= 27 },
        new ChartData{ X= 2009, Y= 32 },
        new ChartData{ X= 2010, Y= 35 },
        new ChartData{ X= 2011, Y= 30 }
    };
}

Coefficient in axis

To customize the radius of the Radar Chart, use Coefficient property. By default, Coefficient value is 100.

@using Syncfusion.Blazor.Charts

<SfChart>
    <ChartPrimaryXAxis Coefficient="40" ValueType="Syncfusion.Blazor.Charts.ValueType.Category">
    </ChartPrimaryXAxis>

    <ChartSeriesCollection>
        <ChartSeries DataSource="@SalesReports" XName="X" YName="Y"
                     Type="ChartSeriesType.Radar" DrawType="ChartDrawType.Line">
        </ChartSeries>
    </ChartSeriesCollection>
</SfChart>

@code{
    public class ChartData
    {
        public double X { get; set; }
        public double Y { get; set; }
    }

    public List<ChartData> SalesReports = new List<ChartData>
    {
        new ChartData{ X= 2005, Y= 28 },
        new ChartData{ X= 2006, Y= 25 },
        new ChartData{ X= 2007, Y= 26 },
        new ChartData{ X= 2008, Y= 27 },
        new ChartData{ X= 2009, Y= 32 },
        new ChartData{ X= 2010, Y= 35 },
        new ChartData{ X= 2011, Y= 30 }
    };
}
