Public Overloads Sub LoadTemplate( _
   ByVal stream As Stream _
) 

Visual Basic (Usage)	Copy Code
Dim instance As Chart Dim stream As Stream   instance.LoadTemplate(stream)

public void LoadTemplate( 
   Stream stream
)

Parameters

stream

Template stream to load from.
The fileStream used to LoadTemplate the chart image.
Template stream to load from.

Use this method if you would like to load a template from a stream (e.g. memorystream, filestream, etc.).

Make sure to set the ChartSerializer.TemplateMode property to true before saving the template using the Save method.

If a template has two data series then the appearance properties of the series are applied sequentially to the chart. For example, if the loaded template has two series then the first template series appearance properties are assigned to the chart's first series, the second template series appearance properties are applied to the chart's second series, then the first template series is used again for the chart's third series, and so on. The same holds true for chart areas, and any other collections that have appearance properties.

Templates can be used to simulate custom palettes.
