I have a chart with 4 or 5 series
X values are dates and y values are numbers
I want to add and an number to every x,y value ( the id of the record they belong) but i don't want to see them in the chart
How this can be done???
I tried Xlables but only one series can have xlables
Any idea???

Hi IQSoft,

You can use point's label argument when populating a series. You can have this for all series but if you make them visible on the x axis only labels from first series will be displayed. You can do something like this:

Code: Select all

procedure TForm1.FormCreate(Sender: TObject);
var i,j: Integer;
begin
  for i:=0 to Chart1.SeriesCount-1 do
  begin
    for j:=0 to 10 do
      Series1.AddXY(j, random, 'my label' + IntToStr(j));

    Chart1[i].Marks.Visible:=false;
  end;

  Chart1.Axes.Bottom.LabelStyle:=talValue;
end;
