How to display striplines in DateTimeAxis of WPF Chart?

To display striplines on a DateTimeAxis in a WPF chart, you must first convert the desired date-time value into a double and assign it to the Start property of the chart striplines. Below is an example demonstrating this process:

Code snippet 

<chart:DateTimeAxis FontSize="14" 
                    Interval="1" 
                    IntervalType="Days"    
                    LabelFormat="dd/MMM/yyyy"> 
       <chart:DateTimeAxis.StripLines> 
          <chart:ChartStripLines> 
               <chart:ChartStripLine x:Name="stripLine"  
                                     Width="1"                      
                                     Background="Yellow" 
                                     Opacity="0.5"/> 
          </chart:ChartStripLines> 
       </chart:DateTimeAxis.StripLines> 
</chart:DateTimeAxis> 
 

The width of the striplines is determined based on the axis interval.

stripLine.Start = new DateTime(2009, 1, 3).ToOADate();
