AlarmZones can be added at design time through the AlarmZonesCollection Editor in the Visual Studio Properties window or programmatically through the AlarmZones object.

To write code in C#

c1Chart1.ChartArea.PlotArea.AlarmZones.AddNewZone();

To access the collection editor at design time:

1. Right-click on the C1Chart2D control and select Properties from its context menu.
2. In the Properties Window, expand the ChartArea node in the Properties window, then expand the PlotArea node, and click the ellipsis next to the AlarmZones property.
