Answer 1

Had the same problem.

What I did was to make sure that I was using the same Framework with the chart framework version.

During project creation, by default using .net 3.5. But since the chart is written for Framework 4.0, it will not work with 3.5.

You need to change the solution or project Framework to 4.0 or above by doing this:

1. On the menu bar of Visual Studio, click /Properties.

2. Change target framework to 4.0 or above.

3. Save the properties setting.

4. Rebuild your solution.

After this, you may use that chart component.
