Marks Font Transparency

Hi there, In my project I have a series where I want the marks to be transparent (background) while the mark text is visible. So I set it up that way and everything looks great. But I allow the user to change the marks font through a tfontdialog. So when I assign a TFont to the TTeeFont (Series.Mark...

Re: “Cleaner” way to draw series than PaintSeriesLegend

I see. That makes sense now for the difference. And thank you for correcting the donut issue! I will look forward to that fix in the next release and I think we'll just make do with the PaintSeriesLegend method, at least for the time being...

Re: “Cleaner” way to draw series than PaintSeriesLegend

Thanks! It seems that method requires a TCanvas3D, which is a steema object. So do you have any recommendations for how to make that work on top of a control like a listbox which would only have a TCanvas? Also, this wouldn't work for series like a bar series which doesn't have a TPointer, would it?

Re: Setting custom position for chart legend

Hmm. Okay. Yes, I think that is correcting the problem for the display. I haven't gotten to this part yet, but one of the requirements for our program is to define a chart and directly export the chart to jpg/png/bmp/etc without having actually seen it displayed to the screen. So do you think callin...

Re: “Cleaner” way to draw series than PaintSeriesLegend

Yes, that is exactly it. So what I would like to be able to paint is the exact symbol as you see it on the chart or in the legend instead of what you see between the checkbox and the text "Series1" in the TChart Editor. For example if you added a point series to the chart you have, you would also se...

“Cleaner” way to draw series than PaintSeriesLegend

I have been using PaintSeriesLegend for drawing a series symbol in a checklist box that lists some pre-built series my user may select from. Unfortunately, the quality of the drawing is kind of poor. I think you use this a few places in the TChartEditor. For example, please look at the difference be...

Setting custom position for chart legend

In a project I’m working on, I have need for the legend on a chart to be completely centered in the middle of the chart. Unfortunately, setting TChart.Legend.Left and TChartLegend.Top using the 50% strategy does not work since this centers the top left corner of the legend and not the center of the ...

Re: Open TChartEditor on a particular series

Yeray, you're a genius! I removed the TeeComma unit that I wasn't even using anymore and voila, the themes tab went away. Thanks so much for troubleshooting with me!

Re: Open TChartEditor on a particular series

Hello, Thank you for that code. It works great, but I'm still having an issue. I'm not sure what's going on and am hoping you can point me in the right direction. When I run your code in a brand new project (created in Delphi 10), it works exactly as you describe. However, when I add it to my existi...

Re: Open TChartEditor on a particular series

Hi, Thanks for that solution. I just ran it and it is almost perfect. It doesn't include the Format Tab which is the one I was really after. Is there a way to add that? Also, I was going about it in a completely different way. In the code you provided, you use the object TChartEditForm from the Unit...

Open TChartEditor on a particular series

Hi, I'm sorry if this should be really obvious but for some reason I can't figure it out. I have a button to launch the TChartEditor for a particular series. I am using the TreeView of editor and have hidden all of the tabs except for Series and themes. Two questions. 1) There doesn't seem to be a w...

Tee Chart and Animations

I was researching the animation features in teechart and came across some issues with what is included in the example features. If you search on "animation" in the tee chart example features application, you get four results. I had problems with the following... 1) For the result "Series Animation,"...

Series Group

I recently came across the series group feature which allows you to show or hide different groups of your chart series in the chart legend. I see that when using the series group, if you choose to show the group names in the legend, that is all you get, the name of the group. Is there a way to show ...

Re: Color Grid Colors

Thank you for your explanation. That makes sense. So I was able to recreate my access violation situation. So as soon as you adjust the Legend Every value (Series --> Grid 3D --> Palette --> Steps --> Legend Every speed edit) in the TChart Editor, you get an access violation after which nothing else...
