Steema.TeeChart.Styles.Custom.Stairs Property

Steps line joining adjacent points.

public Boolean Stairs {get; set;}

Remarks

This boolean property controls the drawing of Line series and Area series.

In most normal situations, a series draws a line between each Line point. This makes the Line appear as a "mountain" shape. However, setting Stairs to true will make the Series to draw 2 Lines between each pair of points, thus giving a "stairs" appearance. This is most used in some financial Chart representations.

When Stairs is set to true you may set InvertedStairs to true to alter the direction of the step. - see charts below.
Line with Stairs false
Same line with Stairs true
Same line with Stairs true and InvertedStairs true
