Instead of float.NaN use Chart.Hidden

I don't see a difference. Both charts look the same to me. A contour chart is made up contour lines. I'm not familiar with Matlab's contour charts but in Chart FX these lines are evenly spaced in the Y axis (the Y-Axis is going into the screen). In this case, Chart FX seems to be plotting more contour lines than Matlab, but that's the only difference I see. You can change the number of contour lines by setting: chart.AxisY.Step = <interval>; In any case, I don't see them as two different charts but rather as different views of the same chart.

There is a sample application included in the resource center under Programmer's Guide -> Axes -> Creating Additional Axes. Please download the trial version to access this resource.

We are talking about two completely different product here, it will take quite a bit of coding to get Chart FX to look like Google Finance (or like any other product). I'm not even sure that you can get it to be exactly the same, some compromises will need to be made at some point. In any case, this is a project on itself, in this forum we can help you with specific issues but the bulk of the work would have to be done on your end.

Date and DateTime axes handle multiple formatting. A specific format is selected acording to the current Step. The following KB article explains this in detail: Q7001073.

No. You will have to create separate commands in order to know where the command is coming from. There is no API to find the parent command of a command that's currently being executed.

Please include a sample program that reproduces the problem. What you are describing shlould be possible, you can pass your data using the ListProvider or using the chart.Data API.

chart.AxesY is a collection. You can add as many as you want: // Create additional Y-Axes AxisY y1 = new AxisY(); chart1.AxesY.Add(y1); AxisY y2 = new AxisY(); chart1.AxesY.Add(y2); AxisY y3 = new AxisY(); chart1.AxesY.Add(y3); AxisY y4 = new AxisY(); chart1.AxesY.Add(y4); // Associate Y-Axes with series chart1.Series[0].AxisY = y1; chart1.Series[1].AxisY = y2; chart1.Series[2].AxisY = y3; chart1.Series[3].AxisY = y4;

I believe the problem you are referring to has been fixed in the latest service pack available for download from Software FX's support site, otherwise, it is available as a HotFix that can be obtained by contacting Software FX support.

We have tested this product on these environments and there are no known issues. You do require a separate license for each server to which you deploy.

1) Bar charts don't use the X-Values for positioning. The bars are position in the X-Axis consecutively and evenly spaced. X-Values are only used for labeling the X-Axis (see: smart labeling). 2) You can not have an X/Y chart combined with a bar chart. Having a Bar chart as the main gallery will automatically turn the X-Axis into categorical and X-Values will no longer be used for positioning of points, regardless of series' gallery.

Only one image is supported per point. I see two options: 1) Create images that have the combination of others (either staticlally or dynamically). 2) Create an additional data series to display the secon image. This second data series will have null values (Chart.Hidden) for all the points except for those that have two images.

You need to contact Software FX support and provide them with the specific error you are getting.

Yes it does.

That would be a Bar chart (Gallery.Bar).

Set: chart.Data.Y[i,j] = Chart.Hidden;

No practical limit (everything has a limit when dealing with computers). 20 Y-Axis can be handled without a problem. Special consideration need to be taken to address layout issues that may arise by the large number of axes being shown in a small area.

You may want to have a look at the API. In the PointLabelAttributes class you have several properties includding: chart.AllSeries.PointLabels.LineAlingment = StringAlignment.Far;

Assuming you have a categorical X-Axis (no X-Values are supplied to the chart), you can assign empty labels by doing: chart.AxisX.Labels = string.Empty; If you are talking about X-values, not string labels, then I would need more information. I need to know the specifics about what data are you setting to the chart, what labels you want to see and what's the chart's gallery (bar, lines, etc.).

We call those "Point Labels". To make them show: chart.AllSeries.PointLabels.Visible = true; To customize what's display in them (by thefault the point value is displayed buy you can display any information for that point): chart.AllSeries.PointLabels.Format = "%l"; Also, if you want to hide the X-Axis (at the bottom of your chart) you can do it: chart.AxisX.Visible = false;

I got a confirmation that we have tested Chart FX 6.2 in Windows Server 2008 and it works correctly. There aren't any problems that have been reported.

The resource center is installed with the product, you should find a link to it in your Program Groups. Documentation can also be found on-line here: http://support.softwarefx.com/ProductBase.aspx?Product=CfxNet70 About the Maps question, you are referring to the Maps extension and what you are describing is basically the core functionality of the product: mapping data to visual attributes (like color) on a map. You will find complete samples and tutorials for achieving this in the documentation, specifically: http://support.softwarefx.com/SupportDocTree.aspx?Prod=CfxNet70&Type=P Look under Extensions -> Maps -> Working With Data

What is "the same result"? The way I see it the only way to keep the pie the same size regardless of the size of the legend text is to make the legend box as big as it is ever going to be. This will always create some blank space. I just don't see anyway around it. I'm not talking about Chart FX her I'm talking in general, if you make the pie smaller some space needs to be added somewhere to compensate. Maybe if you post a drawing of what you would like to get it will be more clear.

you need two series in a stacked bar chart. Each color needs to be a separate series.

1) You need to deploy: ChartFX.ClientServer.Borders.dll ChartFX.ClientServer.Core.dll ChartFX.ClientServer.Data.dll And, if you are using the annotation extension: ChartFX.ClientServer.Annotation.dll 2) You do not need to use SetLicenseString if you are buiilding an executable from VB.
