System.Web.UI.DataVisualization.Charting and Rangebar chart integration

Question

By using following code my chart looks like following image after code.

My question is now the bar and y axis points are not aligned correctly.

How do i show range bar and its corresponding y axis values in the same line?

List<dummyGraph> objGraphList = new List<dummyGraph>();
        dummyGraph objDummyGraph = new dummyGraph();
        objDummyGraph.TKFEType = "Underwriter";
        objDummyGraph.min = 1;
        objDummyGraph.max = 8;
        objDummyGraph.Median = 1;
        objGraphList.Add(objDummyGraph);

        objDummyGraph = new dummyGraph();
        objDummyGraph.TKFEType = "Construction";
        objDummyGraph.min = 2;
        objDummyGraph.max = 5;
        objDummyGraph.Median = 2;
        objGraphList.Add(objDummyGraph);

        objDummyGraph = new dummyGraph();
        objDummyGraph.TKFEType = "Design";
        objDummyGraph.min = 3;
        objDummyGraph.max = 6;
        objDummyGraph.Median = 3;
        objGraphList.Add(objDummyGraph);

        objDummyGraph = new dummyGraph();
        objDummyGraph.TKFEType = "Partner";
        objDummyGraph.min = 4;

            seriesInstance.IsValueShownAsLabel = true;

            xordinal = xordinal + 1;
            seriesInstance.Points.AddXY(xordinal, yplot1, yplot2);

        chartArea1.AlignmentOrientation = AreaAlignmentOrientations.All;

        using (MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream())
        {
            chart1.SaveImage(ms, ChartImageFormat.Png);
            return File(ms.ToArray(), "image/png");
        }

Spline Graph doubt

I have a spline graph. I need to show stright lines from x (Eg: Underwriter) to y (Eg: 200) as shown in the following figure. How do i do it?

UPDATED CODE:

  public ActionResult MMBRChart()
    {
        //Area for generating line chart
        List<dummyGraph> objGraphList = new List<dummyGraph>();
        dummyGraph objDummyGraph = new dummyGraph();
        objDummyGraph.TKFEType = "Underwriter";
        objDummyGraph.min = 1;
        objDummyGraph.max = 8;
        objDummyGraph.Median = "201";
        objGraphList.Add(objDummyGraph);

        objDummyGraph = new dummyGraph();
        objDummyGraph.TKFEType = "Construction";
        objDummyGraph.min = 2;
        objDummyGraph.max = 5;

Answer 1

You're adding multiple series to your chart. Not sure that was your intention. Also, you're using TKFEType as a label, and not as the actual value for the axis. These factors combined are probably mis-aligning your chart. Here's my suggestion how to do it:

        List<DummyGraph> list1 = new List<DummyGraph>();
        list1.Add(new DummyGraph { TKFEType = "Underwritter", Min = 1, Max = 8, Median = 1 });
        list1.Add(new DummyGraph { TKFEType = "Construction", Min = 2, Max = 5, Median = 2 });
        list1.Add(new DummyGraph { TKFEType = "Design", Min = 3, Max = 6, Median = 3 });
        list1.Add(new DummyGraph { TKFEType = "Partner", Min = 4, Max = 6, Median = 4 });

        Chart1.DataSource = list1;
        Chart1.Series[0].XValueMember = "TKFEType";
        Chart1.Series[0].YValueMembers = "Min, Max";
        Chart1.DataBind();
