Legend Series Colours

EddieB · Post by **EddieB** » Tue Nov 13, 2007 1:48 pm

Hi,

I was wondering if anyone has come across the problem where if you have series count of say 50 being displayed each with a unique colour, and with the correct color shown in the Legend.

The problem occurs when you resize the legend so that it can now only show say 40. This causes the last 40 series to be shown which is ok, however, the colours associated to these 40 are no longr insync with the ones displayed on the chart.

Is this supposed to happen and is there any work-arounds or fixes to this problem?

TIA

Eddie

Hi Eddie,

Could you please send us a simple example project we can run "as-is" and let us know the exact steps we should follow to reproduce the issue here? Which exact TeeChart version are you using?

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

Thanks in advance.

Hi Narcis,

I have uploaded a sample project to your upload site.
I have included a word document that shows and highlights screen shots
of my problem.

Thanks
Eddie

Hi Narcis,

I have noticed that it is not the colours that is the problem, but the names attached to them in the legend are wrong.

Cheers
Eddie

Hi Eddie,

Thanks for the example project. I've added the defect (TF02012595) to our bug list to be fixed for future releases.

Hi Narcis,

Would it be possible to be notified when this defect is fixed, or even to be told what the fix is, as I have a licence with the Source for TChart, which would allow me to change it.

It is a very urgent issue that I need to get fixed.

Cheers
Eddie

Hi EddieB,

This issue has been fixed for next TeeChart for .NET v3 maintenance release.

If you are a v3 source code customer you can modify GetItemText in Legend.cs like this:

Code: Select all

		private string GetItemText(int ItemOrder, int Column) 
		{
			if (!Vertical && Inverted)
			{
				return iItems[ItemOrder + iTotalItems - iLastValue - 1, Column];
			}
			else
			{
				return iItems[ItemOrder, Column];
			}
		}

If you are a v2 sourcecode client you can try replacing line below for the code in GetItemText.

Code: Select all

tmpSt = Items[ItemOrder + (iTotalItems - iLastValue - 1), t];
