Templates and different TeeChart versions

[perttu]

I have some serialized templates done with TeeChart.NET version 1.1.1769.19457. When I try to load these templates in version 2.0.2456.16162, I get the exception:

System.Reflection.TargetInvocationException was unhandled
Message="Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation."
Source="mscorlib"
StackTrace:

Shoudn't these templates be backwards compatible?

Hi perttu,

Yes, they should be compatible. This is a bug and added it (TF02011842) to our defect list to be fixed for future releases.
