Edit Background Brush

The background brush of a chart/color can be changed to other brushes.

The first step is to include the necessary namespace and add a new chart/control.

Change the Background Brush

Below, we will change the background brush of a Histogram control (named histogramControl in the examples below). The process is similar for the other controls:

[Visual Basic]
' Set the background brush to a SolidColorBrush with the color gray
histogramControl.Background = new SolidColorBrush(Colors.Gray)

[Visual C#]
// Set the background brush to a SolidColorBrush with the color gray
histogramControl.Background = new SolidColorBrush(Colors.Gray);

In the chart below, you can test the code to see what the result will look like:
