Points line not appearing

This is probably a simple problem. I can't get my points to connect.

point1 = New Steema.TeeChart.Styles.Points(levelsChart.Chart)

'add data
For Each objReading In colReadings
point1.Add(objReading.ReadingTime, objReading.Gallons)
Next
point1.XValues.DateTime = True
point1.Marks.Visible = False
point1.ShowInLegend = True
point1.Pointer.HorizSize = 2
point1.Pointer.VertSize = 2
point1.Visible = True
point1.Color = _LevelsGraphPointsColor
point1.LinePen.Color = _LevelsGraphPointsColor
point1.LinePen.Visible = True
point1.LinePen.Width = 1
point1.LinePen.Transparency = 50

One would think that making the linepen both visible and setting its color would make it show up. Not so.

Hi.

Instead of using point series, why don't you simply use line series ?

We need to see our missing datapoints, so a line would give the illusion of continuity where none exists.

Hi,

you can use a line Series with the Pointer visible to True. Also, in case you want to add missing points you can use the Add() method, using similar code to the following :

Code: Select all

        With Line1
            .Pointer.Visible = True
            .Add(10, "")
            .Add(0, "")
            .Add(13, "")
            .Add()
            .Add(1, "")
            .Add(19, "")
        End With
