Hello,
I am working with Steema TeeChart for iOS (Monotouch) and I am trying to get limit the panning of the Chart past the data points. My x-axis is a DateTime and my panning is set to horizontal only:

Code: Select all

_chart.Header.Text =  string.Format("{0} consumption usage", _resolution);
			_chart.Axes.Bottom.Labels.DateTimeFormat = "d";
			_chart.Axes.Bottom.Labels.Font.Size = 8;
			_chart.Axes.Bottom.Labels.Angle = 0;
			_chart.Axes.Bottom.Labels.Style = AxisLabelStyle.Value;
			
			_chart.Axes.Left.Title.Text = "Consumption";
			_chart.Axes.Left.Title.TextAlign = MonoTouch.CoreText.CTTextAlignment.Center;
			
			_chart.Legend.Visible = false;
			
			_chart.Aspect.View3D = false;
			_chart.Aspect.ZoomScrollStyle = Steema.TeeChart.Drawing.Aspect.ZoomScrollStyles.Manual;
			_chart.Panning.Allow = ScrollModes.Horizontal;
			
			
			Steema.TeeChart.Themes.ExcelTheme theme = new Steema.TeeChart.Themes.ExcelTheme(_chart.Chart);
			theme.Apply();
			
			_chart.ScrollMod += Handle_chartScrollMod;
			_chart.Zoomed += Handle_chartZoomed;
			_chart.UndoneZoom += Handle_chartUndoneZoom;

I am looking for help to put code to not allow me to pan past my data limit. I set pages with maximum data points per page and the panning works but I would like to stop after the data points are done.

Hello abuniz,

I have made a simple code where I am limiting the scroll in the horizontal axes.

Code: Select all

public Form1()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
            InitializeChart();
        }

        private void InitializeChart()
        {
            tChart1.Axes.Bottom.Labels.DateTimeFormat = "d";
            tChart1.Axes.Bottom.Labels.Font.Size = 8;
            tChart1.Axes.Bottom.Labels.Angle = 0;
            tChart1.Axes.Bottom.Labels.Style = AxisLabelStyle.Value;

            tChart1.Axes.Left.Title.Text = "Consumption";
   
            tChart1.Legend.Visible = false;
            tChart1.Aspect.View3D = false;
            tChart1.Panning.Allow = ScrollModes.Horizontal;
            Steema.TeeChart.Styles.Line line1 = new Line(tChart1.Chart);
            line1.FillSampleValues(100);
            tChart1.Scroll += new EventHandler(tChart1_Scroll);

            Steema.TeeChart.Themes.ExcelTheme theme = new Steema.TeeChart.Themes.ExcelTheme(tChart1.Chart);
            theme.Apply();
            tChart1.UndoneZoom += new EventHandler(tChart1_UndoneZoom);
        }

        void tChart1_Scroll(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            if (tChart1.Axes.Bottom.Minimum < 0)
            {
                tChart1.Axes.Bottom.AutomaticMinimum = false;
                tChart1.Axes.Bottom.Minimum = 0;
                tChart1.Axes.Bottom.AutomaticMaximum = false;
                tChart1.Axes.Bottom.Maximum = tChart1[0].MaxXValue();
            }
            if (tChart1.Axes.Bottom.Maximum > tChart1[0].XValues.Maximum)
            {
                tChart1.Axes.Bottom.AutomaticMinimum = false;
                tChart1.Axes.Bottom.Minimum = tChart1[0].XValues.Maximum;
                tChart1.Axes.Bottom.AutomaticMaximum = false;
                tChart1.Axes.Bottom.Maximum = 0;
            }
        }

        void tChart1_UndoneZoom(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            tChart1.Axes.Bottom.Automatic = true;
        }

As you see, the previous code is made for an application of Winforms, but you can do the same in TeeChartForIOs(Monotouch). Can you tell if previous code works as you expect?

I hope will helps.

Thanks,

Hey Sandra,
thanks for your reply but that code did not work as expected. When panning to the left (below minimum data) nothing happens. I can still pan all the way past any data. When panning to the right (above maximum data) all my bars get stacked on top of each other. I used your code and modified it a bit and got it working (below):

Code: Select all

		void Handle_chartScroll (object sender, EventArgs e)
		{
			if (_chart.Axes.Bottom.Minimum < _chart[0].XValues.Minimum)
            {
                _chart.Axes.Bottom.AutomaticMinimum = false;
				_chart.Axes.Bottom.AutomaticMaximum = false;
				DateTime dt = Steema.TeeChart.Utils.DateTime(_chart[0].XValues.Minimum);
				switch (_resolution) 
				{
				case "Monthly":
					_chart.Axes.Bottom.SetMinMax(dt, dt.AddMonths(6));
					break;
				case "Daily":
					_chart.Axes.Bottom.SetMinMax(dt, dt.AddDays(6));
					break;
				case "Hourly":
					_chart.Axes.Bottom.SetMinMax(dt, dt.AddHours(6));
					break;
				default:
					break;
				}
            }
            if (_chart.Axes.Bottom.Maximum > _chart[0].XValues.Maximum)
            {
				_chart.Axes.Bottom.AutomaticMinimum = false;
				_chart.Axes.Bottom.AutomaticMaximum = false;
				DateTime dt = Steema.TeeChart.Utils.DateTime(_chart[0].XValues.Maximum);
				switch (_resolution) 
				{
				case "Monthly":
					_chart.Axes.Bottom.SetMinMax(dt.AddMonths(-6), dt);
					break;
				case "Daily":
					_chart.Axes.Bottom.SetMinMax(dt.AddDays(-6), dt);
					break;
				case "Hourly":
					_chart.Axes.Bottom.SetMinMax(dt.AddHours(-6), dt);
					break;
				default:
					break;
				}
                
                
            }
		}

Hello abuniz,

Can you attached here a simple code where your problem occurs because we can try to reproduce exactly it here?

Thanks,
