[Nice to Have]: Series can have their Title as marker text

In current v7.07, if there are many series in a chart, then set the serie marker to display serie title will be a good way for user to make distinguish, while color/shape is already at their limit.

Hi,

I'm sorry, I'm not sure what you refer, with existing version you can set a Title for each Series using :
Series1.Title := 'Title1';

Could you please be more specific ?

Hello

My suggestion is that:
Serie Marker can display the Serie Title.

[reason]
Imagin many line series in a chart, it will be very dificult to tell which line is who unless set the marker to display serie title directly.

[Feasibilty]
extend current TSeriesMarksStyle to have a new options, such as smsTitle.
when set this one, the Serie mark will display the serie title.

Currently I catch the event of OnGetMarkText to manually set it.
