// Get the chart and series to update format.
Shape shape = (Shape)doc.GetChild(NodeType.Shape, 0, true);
ChartSeries series = shape.Chart.Series[0];
ChartDataPointCollection dataPoints = series.DataPoints;

Assert.IsTrue(dataPoints.HasDefaultFormat(0));
Assert.IsFalse(dataPoints.HasDefaultFormat(1));

// Copy format of the data point with index 1 to the data point with index 2
// so that the data point 2 looks the same as the data point 1.
dataPoints.CopyFormat(0, 1);

Assert.IsTrue(dataPoints.HasDefaultFormat(0));
Assert.IsTrue(dataPoints.HasDefaultFormat(1));

// Copy format of the data point with index 0 to the series defaults so that all data points
// in the series that have the default format look the same as the data point 0.
series.CopyFormatFrom(1);

Assert.IsTrue(dataPoints.HasDefaultFormat(0));
Assert.IsTrue(dataPoints.HasDefaultFormat(1));
