[X-Axis labelling with datetime]

Hi jusim

You can check the 3 properties on XAxis labels: step, angle, and staggered.  Please try following code:

chart1.AxisX.Step = 1;chart1.AxisX.LabelAngle = 45;

also

chart1.AxisX.Step = 1;chart1.AxisX.Staggered = true;

[Stacked Bar on Y Axis w/ Line on Y2 - Line paints behind bars]

Hi Cecilia Daniels

 

I found a workaround for your issue.  It will only work if the latest series is the one with Lines gallery type.

 

 

List<SeriesAttributes> allSeries = new List<SeriesAttributes>();<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

 

//Adds all series (in current order) to the auxiliar Collection

foreach (SeriesAttributes series in chart1.Series)

{

  allSeries.Add(series);

}

 

//Iterate from all series and invert the current order

foreach (SeriesAttributes series in allSeries)

{

    series.BringToFront();

}

 

I hope it helps.

[combine floating column, area, scatter charts]

Hi thealere

 

Yes, Chart FX support the floating bars as the ones in the image. You need to use following code:

 

chart1.openData(COD.VALUES, series, points);

chart1.openData(COD.INI_VALUES, series, points);

 

// Add as many as you want

chart1.getIniValue().setItem(series, point, value);

chart1.getValue().setItem(series, point, value);

 

chart1.closeData(COD.INI_VALUES);

chart1.closeData(COD.VALUES);

You need to provide the X-Axis labels sorted.  Chart FX does not sort automatically your data in this case.

[Remove Section From Legend Box]

Hi DustinW

 

 

Chart FX will add the Axis Sections text automatically to the legend box.  I have found a way to remove them, please check following code.

 

 

LegendItemAttributes lia = new LegendItemAttributes();

<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

chart1.LegendBox.ItemAttributes[chart1.AxisX.Sections] = lia;

lia.Visible = false;

[Can I have 2 charts in one component?]

Hi ricardoarguellojr

 

When you see 2 pies in the same chart is because the data source contains 2 series of data.  Unfortunately, you cannot have combine gallery type such as bars and pies in the same chart.   For instance, you can combine Lines, Bars and Areas.  Also, you can combine Pies and Doughnuts.<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

 

Now, regarding your question about different data, Chart FX engine does not allow you to use more than one data source.  So, unfortunately, you are not able to use different data as Chart FX data source.

Hi fxinq1009

You can increase separation of bar modifying the volume of each point.  Please check following code:

[Date does not show in tooltip]

Hi sheng

 

This is an unsupported feature in Chart FX, you cannot get directly the OHLC values in order to set them in the Tooltip.  But, from spoken with a Chart FX developer, he was able to come up with a work around for you. It involves changing the Text property of every point in the chart and set the tooltip to %L right before the chart gets painted (I was only able to make it work at the PrePaint event).

 

private void chart1_PrePaint(object sender, ChartFX.WinForms.CustomPaintEventArgs e)

{

  if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(chart1.ToolTipFormat))

  {

  for (int i = 0; i < chart1.Data.Points; i++)

  {

chart1.Points.Text = DateTime.FromOADate(chart1.Data.X).ToString().Split(' ')[0] +

"\r\n" +

"Open: " + chart1.Data[0, i].ToString() +

"\r\n" +

"High: " + chart1.Data[1, i].ToString() +

"\r\n" +

"Low: " + chart1.Data[2, i].ToString() +

"\r\n" +

"Close: " + chart1.Data[3, i].ToString();

  }

 

  chart1.ToolTipFormat = "%L";

  }

}

 

I must remind you that this is a workaround over an unsupported feature.

[Set Tooltip format just for one series?]

Hi sheng

<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

 

Unfortunately, ToolTipFormat applies to all series, and you cannot set a different ToolTipFormat for an specific series.  This is by design.

[Is there a good way to pre-determine chart's Height and Width?]

Hi samiam1029

<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

 

Unfortunately, I think you cannot achieve calculating the size of the chart base on number of point.  You will need to play with many variables while calculating the width of the chart. For instance:

 

Axis Labels, Chart FX engine will automatically calculate spacing it need to plot labels.

Legend Box, depending of the position of the legend box, the plot area can decrease/increase.  Take into consideration the user can change the legend box position at run time.

 

Good look.

The issue seems to be related with PSS service in your machine.  Please check in your IIS admin console to see if the Chart FX virtual directory is in the same level of your web site. If not, please create the Chart FX virtual directory at the same level.  This virtual directory should be linked to ChartFX70 under your installation folder.[/font]
