realtime-chart/ Toolbar questions

[elektra]

1) I have a problem with realtime-chart: I have a chart that is updated every 5 min with adding 3 points(chart with datetime axis). The problem is the exception I get when the window is resized. To solve it, I implemented the form_resize(... event handler and allocated a buffer for the realtime-mode another time, which is not the best solution because I'm getting the following chart with a black/ grey area:

2) how to add a page to the properties window of the toolbar-item "properties": I want to add a second page for the second Y-Axis and a page for the X-Axis

3) Is there a help information for the toobar/menubar?

1) For the first problem you will need to post a working sample that reproduces the exception. You shouldn't get any when the chart is resized.

2) You can not add new pages to the propeties dialog. You need to provide you own using a custom command.

3) A tutorial showing how to customize the toolbar/menubar is located in the resource center and on-line docs and samples here:

2) I have created 3 series dynamically and set the properties of each serie (text, gallery, line..)

how can I reset the series/ empty the seriers or only remove points from series and add new points.  

I found the following response in the forum but it wasn't helpful because I need to preserve the properties of the series not only create new ones. 

[b]Data.Clear() resets the number of points AND series to 0.     [/b]

[b]You need to add the following after Data.Clear():[/b]

[b]chart1.Data.Series = <number of series>;[/b]

3) I meant with Help some kind of user guide or help file for end users on the chart modification such as

galleries, color, scale, etc...

Does the ChartFX company have something like that ? (N.b: we have ordered ChartFX with 1 year support)
