Editor 3D tab and Elevation property

[JayG]

Using:
TeeChart .NET 2009 v 4.0.2009.21355
VB 2008 Express

In the chart Editor, on the 3D tab, the Elevation is restricted to a range of 270 - 360. However, the help file for the Elevation property states it can be 0 - 360. Using code, I can set the Elevation property (myForm.TChart1.Aspect.Elevation) to anything from 0 - 360 and the chart is drawn properly. The problem is that if the editor is opened while the Elevation property is set to less than 270 and you click on the 3D tab, teeChart causes a crash of the application ("Value" should be between "Minimum" and "Maximum"). Why is the elevation range restricted on the editor tab? If it must be within this range, why can it still be set to other values in code with generating an error?

This bug (feature?) existed in TeeChart .NET 3.5 also. I'm not sure about earlier versions.

Hi Jay,

Yes, the problem is that there are some series that don't look fine viewed from behind. That's why the elevation trackbar in the aspect editor has a minimum set at 270. And if you change the elevation to less than this minimum the application crashes when this trackbar wants to be shown with a value littler than its minimum.

We'll try to improve it in a next release.

It looks like this is still not fixed in 4.0.2010.27962. Are you still planning to fix this?
