Hi vijay,

You can export the chart to a native .ten file and import it in the other tab. For more information on how to import and export charts please read Tutorial 12 - Exporting and Importing Charts. You'll find the tutorials at TeeChart's program group.

Hi vijay,

You should select the "Native" tab in the chart export dialog to export a TeeChart native template file.

Hi vijay,

Yes, this is what you should do.

For example I had 2 lines and a bar on a chart on Tab1 and when I copied onto another tab the way you suggested...I see the same image,but no lines and bar

Hi vijay,

Have you checked the "include series data" checkbox when exporting the chart?

Hi vijay,

It works fine here doing this at design-time with latest TeeChart for .NET v2 maintenance release available at the client area. Could you please send us an example we can run "as-is" to reproduce the problem here and let us know which TeeChart version are you using?

Thanks in advance.
