Bug: Unintentionally selecting 'Text File' as a Series Data

Source

Add a TChart and a Series and open the series 'Data Source' tab. There should most likely be a "Random" entry visible at the top of the tab (without any lable but be best guess thats the 'data source')

Now just drop that list down and accidentally select 'Text file' than switch back to 'Random' and close the tab.
This will add a TSeriesTextSource entry to your forms interface even though you never really needed on.

Best of all try to open that tab again and switch back and force between 'Random' and 'Text file' and you will get another instance of TSeriesTextSource ... of course you can repeat that procedure to get an unlimited number of TSeriesTextSources in your form.
