Fixed height and width

[Nick]

Hello,

I'm probably overlooking a property or something, but I've got a question about the height and width. I've set the height and width of a pie chart, for example, to 200. In some instances I have labels that are quite long. In these cases the pie dimensions seem to grow, but I need it stay constant. I would like the labels to be cut off or wrap. Is there an option for this?

Thanks for any help, I really appreciate it.

Thanks,
Nick

Hi Nick,

I'm sorry but I'm not sure about which is the exact problem here. Would you be so kind to give us some more details and a code snippet or 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.

Hi Narcís,

I will upload a complete example when I get in to the office tomorrow morning. I wasn't very clear with what I was saying. Just for clarification a bit, I've got a pie chart (although I believe I'm seeing the same behavior for other chart types too) where I am setting the height and width:

tChart1.Width = 200;
tChart1.Height = 200;

I'm also setting the custom x & y radius:

series.CustomXRadius = 75;
series.CustomYRadius = 75;

The problem is that when I have a label that is really long:

series.Add(4000, "blah blah blah yackity smackity blah");
series.Add(1900, "other label");

And then I save the file:

tChart1.Export.Image.Metafile.Save(@"c:\test.emf");

The dimensions of the image are no longer 200 x 200. I would prefer that it try to wrap the labels or just cut them off. I hope that helps, but I will post a complete sample a little later.

Thanks,
Nick

Hi Nick,

Thanks for the information. I could reproduce the issue here now and added it (TF02013168) to our defect list to be fixed for next releases.
