I am trying to work with line series and found a few problems:

When I use pointers and ColorEach is true - the pointers are still using the series's color.
If I set a pattern to be used for the series, it does not show up anyway.
If I make border visible and its width more then 2 - the look of the line is very funny (which could be a side effect of the fact, that I am reading outline property on load).
If I touch outline property (make it visible and then turn it off later) border stops working and by playing with this property more, I was able to make the whole line series disappear from the chart - even though it was still shown in the legend and had values.

Hi Profitstar,

# When I use pointers and ColorEach is true - the pointers are still using the series's color.

This works fine for me here using latest TeeChart for .NET v3 release, which was published last Monday, and this code:

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

		private void InitializeChart()
		{
			Steema.TeeChart.Styles.Line line1 = new Steema.TeeChart.Styles.Line(tChart1.Chart);

			line1.FillSampleValues();
			line1.ColorEach = true;
			line1.Pointer.Visible = true;
		}

Could you please check if this works fine for you?

# If I set a pattern to be used for the series, it does not show up anyway.

Adding line below to code snippet above works fine for me here.

Code: Select all

			line1.Brush.Style = System.Drawing.Drawing2D.HatchStyle.Cross;

At designtime it also works fine for me.

# If I make border visible and its width more then 2 - the look of the line is very funny (which could be a side effect of the fact, that I am reading outline property on load).

I could reproduce this here making pointer not visible in the code snippet above and setting this:

Code: Select all

			line1.LinePen.Width = 2;

I've added the issue (TF02013532) to the defect list to be fixed for next releases.

# If I touch outline property (make it visible and then turn it off later) border stops working and by playing with this property more, I was able to make the whole line series disappear from the chart - even though it was still shown in the legend and had values.

I could also reproduce this using Line's editor and added the issue (TF02013533) to the list to be fixed.
