Null Values Support

In RadSparkline the EmptyPointBehavior property controls what happens with null points. The possible values are:

• ShowAsBlank: The null points would not be painted on the chart and a blank spot will appear.
• ShowAsZero: The null point will be considered as 0 on the Y axis.
• DoNotShow: The null point would not be painted on the chart.
