Hi wilcohsu,

Have you seen the Maps demo available at TeeChart's program group? Full project sources are also included in the examples folder.

Hi,Narcis

That Sample Project is not enough information for me.
How should I use Map to bind dataset?
Or how many variables are there in map?

Hi wilcohsu,

TeeChart map format supported is .SHP files. The ESRI Shape (SHP) file format is a vector format created by the Environmental System Research Institute. SHP files support point, multi-point, polygon, polyline and multi-patches. Map series can also use any file format provided you can read them. All map series is about are poligons.

You can bind map series to a datasource as with any other map series. In VS2005 you can use bindingsource as I told here.

Hi,Narcis

This Sample "C:\Program Files\Steema Software\TeeChart for .NET v2\Examples\DemoProject\Series\Map_Series.cs"
use AddShape function to add polygons.

How can I use these properties(XValues.DataMember,YValues.DataMember,ZValues.DataMember,DataSource)
to achieve above map?

Hi wilcohsu,

Here you'll find an example of DataMember usage in a gantt series. The same will apply for map series.

Hi,Narcis

I still was unable to achieve map of sample project(Map_Series.cs).
Could you please give me some map code for achieve that?

Best Regard!

Hi wilcohsu,

Sorry but hadn't realised about that before. You should use Map series as in the example at C:\Program Files\Steema Software\TeeChart for .NET v2 Evaluation\Examples\MapProject\bin\ExecutableDemo, I though you had already seen that. Full project sources are also included.
