Hello,

I use TeeChart Pro 8.02. I have a PointSeries with minimum Y value 0.50 and maximum Y value 14.40. The PointSeries left axis is Left only and also the automatic property is set to true. If I only add the PointSeries into the chart everything works fine but if I add another ErrorSeries (where the Y values are taken from the PointSeries) the left axis scales are changed in a dramatic way (minimum set to -23 and maximum set to 50 aprox.). The ErrorSeries appears fine on the chart but I cannot figure out why the scales change so much... Any recommendations?

Regards

Hi johnnix,

I'm not able to reproduce the problem here. Could you please send us a simple example project we can run "as-is" to reproduce the problem here?

You can either post your files at news://www.steema.net/steema.public.attachments newsgroup or at our upload page.

Thanks in advance.

Hello,

I just uploaded a test project. Notice that the scales in the left axis are not compatible with the Y values of the data.

Hello,

The problem is that the axis is scaled based on the error value of the error point. If you add only one error point e.g. series2.AddErrorBar(10,1,5); then you will notice that the left axis minimum is set 1+5 = 6

Is there a way to avoid this???

Hi johnnix,

You have 2 options here:

1. Manually set left axis scales:

Code: Select all

procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject);
begin
  series1.AddXY(10,1);
  series1.AddXY(20,2.5);

  series2.AddErrorBar(10,1,2);
  series2.AddErrorBar(20,2.5,1);

  Chart1.Axes.Left.SetMinMax(0,series1.YValues.MaxValue);
end;

2. You can create a custom vertical axis for Series2 and make Left axis not visible.
