Hi,

I facing problem to create a bar chart with side bar and stacked bar together. Could you guide me how to do that?
My teechart .Net version is 4.1.2012.1033

Hello Phoi San,

I have made a simple code for you that simulate a similar chart as you want, to do it I have used SubChartTool and a Chart:

Code: Select all

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

        }
        Steema.TeeChart.Tools.SubChartTool subchart1;
        Steema.TeeChart.TChart tChart2;
        private void InitializeChart()
        {
            subchart1 = new SubChartTool(tChart1.Chart);
            tChart2 = subchart1.Charts.AddChart("Chart0");
            InitializeSeries();
            CustomsizeCharts();
		}
        private void InitializeSeries()
        {
            Random rnd = new Random();
            for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++)
            {
                Steema.TeeChart.Styles.Bar bar = new Steema.TeeChart.Styles.Bar();
                if (i % 2 == 0)
                {
                    tChart2.Series.Add(bar);
                    for (int j = 1; j <= 8; j++)
                    {
                        bar.Add(j, rnd.Next(100),"Series"+i.ToString());
                        bar.SideMargins = false;
                        bar.VertAxis = VerticalAxis.Right;
                        bar.Marks.Style = MarksStyles.Value;
                    }
                }
                else
                {
                    tChart1.Series.Add(bar);
                    bar.FillSampleValues(1);
                    bar.Labels[0] = "Series" + i.ToString();
                    bar.SideMargins = false;
                    bar.VertAxis = VerticalAxis.Left;
                    bar.MultiBar = MultiBars.Stacked;
                    bar.Marks.Style = MarksStyles.Value;
                }

            }
              
            
        }
        private void CustomsizeCharts()
        {
            tChart1.Panel.MarginUnits = PanelMarginUnits.Pixels;
            tChart2.Panel.MarginUnits = PanelMarginUnits.Pixels;
            tChart1.Walls.Back.Visible = false;
            tChart2.Walls.Back.Visible = false;

            //tChart1
            tChart1.Aspect.View3D = false;
            tChart1.Legend.Visible = false;
            tChart1.Axes.Bottom.Labels.Style = AxisLabelStyle.PointValue;
            tChart1.Header.Visible = false;
            //tChart2(subChartTool1)
            tChart2.Aspect.View3D = false;
            tChart2.Chart.Panel.Gradient.Visible = false;
            tChart2.Chart.Panel.Color = Color.Transparent;
            tChart2.Header.Visible = false;
     
            tChart2.Axes.Bottom.SetMinMax(0, 8);
            tChart2.Axes.Bottom.Labels.Style = AxisLabelStyle.PointValue;
            //Draw Charts;
            tChart1.Draw();
            tChart2.Draw();

            //SubChart position.
            Rectangle rect = tChart1.Chart.ChartRect;
            tChart2.Left = tChart1.Left;
            tChart2.Top = rect.Top;
            tChart2.Width = rect.Right;
            tChart2.Height = tChart1.Height -rect.Top -4;
            //Draw
            tChart2.Draw();
            tChart2.Panel.MarginLeft = (tChart2.Axes.Bottom.CalcPosValue(1) - tChart2.Axes.Bottom.IStartPos);
            tChart2.Draw();
            //ChangeMarginPanel1
            tChart1.Panel.MarginRight = tChart2.Axes.Bottom.IEndPos - (tChart2.Axes.Bottom.CalcPosValue(1) - tChart2.Axes.Bottom.IStartPos);
           //ReCalculateAxes
            tChart2.Axes.Bottom.SetMinMax(1, 8);
            double max, min;
            min= Math.Min(tChart2.Axes.Right.Minimum, tChart1.Axes.Left.Minimum);
            max = Math.Max(tChart2.Axes.Right.Maximum, tChart1.Axes.Left.Maximum);
            tChart2.Axes.Right.Visible = false;
            tChart1.Axes.Left.SetMinMax(min,max);
            tChart2.Axes.Left.SetMinMax(min, max);
            tChart1.Axes.Left.Grid.Visible = false;
            //RecalculateMargins with values as you want.
            tChart1.Panel.MarginTop =20;
            tChart2.Panel.MarginTop = 20;
            tChart2.Panel.MarginRight = 30;
        //ReDraw All Charts.
            tChart1.Draw();
            tChart2.Draw();
          
        }
        private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            tChart1.ShowEditor();
        }

Can you tell us if previous code works as you want?

Thanks,
