Is there any way to "wrap" data vertically, so that y values greater than the maximum on the y axis are displayed as though the top of the chart wraps around to the bottom? This is a customary method for displaying data recorded from laboratory experiments, but I cannot figure out any way (at least any simple way) to do it with TeeChart.

Thanks,
john

Hi John,

Could you please send us an image of what you are describing or point us to an example in internet?

You can post the image at steema.public.attachments newsgroup available at news://www.steema.net

Thanks in advance.

OK, I made a simple chart in a spreadsheet to show what I am trying to do, and sent it to steema.public.attachments.

Hi John,

Thanks for the image. Yes, this can be done several ways, one would be doing:

Code: Select all

int i;

tChart1.Axes.Left.Automatic=false;
tChart1.Axes.Left.Maximum=0;
tChart1.Axes.Left.Maximum=10;

tChart1.Axes.Bottom.Automatic=false;
tChart1.Axes.Bottom.Minimum=0;
tChart1.Axes.Bottom.Maximum=10;

for(i=0;i<tChart1.Axes.Bottom.Maximum;i++) 
{   				
	if (i+4>tChart1.Axes.Left.Maximum) 
	points1.Add((i+4)%tChart1.Axes.Left.Maximum);
else
	points1.Add(i+4);
}

Well yes, I was aware that I can always modify my data. (And yes, I know that the formula is a bit trickier if the y axis doesn't start at zero.) I was looking for something a little more automated, so that I don't have to keep a copy of the original data around in the event I want to adjust the min/max axis values. I guess I will try putting the logic for this into a custom series function.

Hi John,

I have included your suggestion to our wish list to be considered for future releases.
