Configure SeriesItems in the Code-behind
To create series items programmatically, you should use the respective class for each series type:
AreaSeries, BarSeries, ColumnSeries, LineSeries, RadarAreaSeries, RadarColumnSeries and RadarLineSeries use the CategorySeriesItem class.
BoxPlotSeries use the BoxPlotSeriesItem class.
BubbleSeries use the BubbleSeriesItem class.
BulletSeries and VerticalBulletSeries use the BulletSeriesItem class.
CandlestickSeries use the CandlestickSeriesItem class.
DonutSeries and PieSeries use the PieSeriesItem class.
FunnelSeries use the FunnelSeriesItem class.
PolarAreaSeries, PolarLineSeries and PolarScatterSeries use the PolarSeriesItem class.
RangeBarSeries and RangeColumnSeries use the RangeSeriesItem class.
ScatterSeries and ScatterLineSeries use the ScatterSeriesItem class.
WaterfallSeries and HorizontalWaterfallSeries use the WaterfallSeriesItem class.
In order to access the properties of the series in the code-behind, the series must be cast to the respective series type (e.g. (RadHtmlChart1.PlotArea.Series[0] as ColumnSeries).SeriesItems[0].Y = 10;).
You can see how to create the series of the chart and bind their items on the server-side in the last section of the following article: HtmlChart Server-side Overview
