User (Legacy) Posted September 12, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2005 I have a DataTable that is represented as follows string double double double double 12:34:08 0 0.4 0.71 287.16 etc As far as I can gather, the first column is the what will be represented as the x-axis and the other values will be used as data series. When I change the DataSource to double double double double 0 0.4 0.71 287.16 by removing the first column (I want to use the new first column as the x-axis) it still some how remember the time string values and uses them for x-axis. How can I make it plot what I want as the x-axis. Adjusting the DataType does not seem to help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Software FX Posted September 14, 2005 Report Share Posted September 14, 2005 DataType[0] = DataType.Label; Should do the trick, make sure this is done BEFORE the data is read into the chart. -- Francisco Padron www.chartfx.com "Jim Bob" <goatee01@hotmail.com> wrote in message news:1FjEp45tFHA.1332@webserver3.softwarefx.com... >I have a DataTable that is represented as follows > string double double double double > 12:34:08 0 0.4 0.71 287.16 > etc > > As far as I can gather, the first column is the what will be represented > as the x-axis and the other values will be used as data series. > > When I change the DataSource to > > double double double double > 0 0.4 0.71 287.16 > by removing the first column (I want to use the new first column as the > x-axis) it still some how remember the time string values and uses them > for x-axis. > > How can I make it plot what I want as the x-axis. > Adjusting the DataType does not seem to help. > Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

User (Legacy) Posted September 17, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 17, 2005 Using ClearData and Setting DataType to Label has partly solved the problem but has uncovered another. It plots the x-axis using the correct values but they are not in ascending order which is not really useful. Included is an example of what I get. 0 30.41 0.71 0.71 0.71 26.17 0 0 0.71 0.71 instead of 0 0.71 26.17 30.41 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Software FX Posted September 17, 2005 Report Share Posted September 17, 2005 I'm afraid I don't understand this problem. What is the data that you have in your table ? The labels will appear in the order in which they are in your data, if you want them to be ascending you need to sort your dataset, remember these are labels (strings) not numbers so Chart FX doesn't have a numeric value for them. If what you are looking for is to use this columns as X values, X/Y charts are a feature of the full version of Chart FX not present in Chart FX Lite. -- Francisco Padron www.chartfx.com "Jim Bob" <goatee01@hotmail.com> wrote in message news:p$lIfJ0uFHA.280@webserver3.softwarefx.com... > Using ClearData and Setting DataType to Label has partly solved the > problem but has uncovered another.

User (Legacy) Posted September 18, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2005 That is what I was after, having them sorted. Now i just have to work out a way to sort the dataset. I can't expect Software FX to help if it has to do with datatable class being sorted. Anyone else want to help though. i've tried using table.select but that doesn't seem to do anything. All i want to do is sort a datatable by the first column ascending and set as chartfx.lite datasource.
