Hi,

I create a TChart control in Window Form at .NET 2003. The Window form has a back ground picture, TChart control has 3 sample series.

When I set TChart panel and wall as transparent, the TChart control is transparent above window form background.

But I selected export the TChart as GIF file from TeeChart Editor Dialog, the exported gif image has a black background.

Does export image support transparent feature?

My purpose is to export transparent TChart into GIF at run-time, this does not work also.

Thanks for help in advance!

Lewis

Thanks
Lewis

Hi Lewis,

To achieve that you need to export the chart to a .PNG file instead of .GIF.
