Summary
I have a calculated column on my dataset. I don't want this column to be graphed but I do want it to show up in the dataeditor. Can this be done?

Description
.Net version of chartfx has added a new property in the DataEditor object called ShowHiddenSeries so that Hidden series (on the chart) will also show.

You have to hide the series that you don't want to see in the chart, don't set DataType.NotUsed, this will prevent the chart from reading the series from your data source.

To hide a series use:

chart.Series[index].Visible = false;
