colour of dots in point series is not working

[catchlog]

Hi,
After ugrading from teechart lite to pro, assigning colours to individual points in a points series when you add a point only seems to work randomly.

Here is the code:
[code]
Points origin = new Points();
origin.Pointer.Style = Steema.TeeChart.Styles.PointerStyles.Circle;
int catchRadius = 5;
origin.Pointer.HorizSize = catchRadius;
origin.Pointer.VertSize = catchRadius;
int dotColour = (int)Math.Round((double)maxCatchColour * ((double)ca.Kg /maxKg),0);
Color col = new Color();
if(dotColour < 20)
col = Color.FromArgb(227,255,94);
else if (dotColour < 40)
col = Color.FromArgb(174,193,84);
else if (dotColour < 60)
col = Color.FromArgb(84,97,23);
else if (dotColour < 80)
col = Color.FromArgb(255,47,47);
else if (dotColour <= 100)
col = Color.FromArgb(172,45,45);

origin.Add(x,y,ca.SpeciesName,col);
origin.Cursor = Cursors.Hand;
[/code]

When there are more than three points some of the points don't pick up the colour set when adding the point (they keep the series colour).
Can any one tell me how to set the colours?

Here is are the chart properties incase they help:

Hi.

It might help setting point series ColorEach property to true:

Code: Select all

origin.ColorEach = true;

[catchlog]

I tried origin.ColorEach = true, about half the points are still not reflection the colour passed in when we add them.

Hi catchlog,

Could you please send us an example we can run "as-is" to reproduce the problem here?

You can post your files at news://www.steema.net/steema.public.attachments newsgroup.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the help but I've got it to work now. i'm just adding the origin series for each dot.
