Learn how to apply gradient colors to Syncfusion .NET MAUI Sunburst Chart segments using PaletteBrushes for stunning hierarchical data visualizations.
This knowledge base article demonstrates how to apply vibrant gradient colors to segments in the Syncfusion .NET MAUI Sunburst Chart control. You'll learn to create LinearGradientBrush and RadialGradientBrush in a ViewModel, bind them to the PaletteBrushes property, and implement dynamic theme switching for enhanced hierarchical data visualization.
The Syncfusion .NET MAUI Sunburst Chart is a powerful data visualization control that displays hierarchical data in concentric circular segments. Each level in the hierarchy is represented as a ring, with inner rings showing parent categories and outer rings displaying child categories. The chart provides an intuitive way to visualize proportional relationships and hierarchical structures.
- Hierarchical Data Visualization: Display multi-level categorical data in nested circular segments
- Custom Color Palettes: Apply solid colors, gradients (linear/radial), or custom brushes to segments
- Interactive Elements: Built-in support for tooltips, legends.
- Data Binding: Seamless binding to data sources with ValueMemberPath and GroupMemberPath
- Label Customization: Configure data labels with various overflow modes and positioning
- Selection Support: Enable segment selection with customizable selection behavior
- Drill-down Navigation: Navigate through hierarchical levels interactively
If you are facing a "Path too long" exception when building this example project, close Visual Studio and rename the repository to a shorter name before building the project.
