User (Legacy) Posted September 29, 2005 Report Share Posted September 29, 2005 Hi, I want to show two charts as one. One chart is Bar and the other is Line, so I did but the first chart "hides" the second one. In the enclosed chart you'll see that the bar chart "hides" a part of the line chart, something my customer doesn't like. So how come I do to give a some "transparent" looks to the bar chart or that the line chart appears over the bar chart. TIA Attachments.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Software FX Posted September 30, 2005 Report Share Posted September 30, 2005 Dear Emma, I see two solutions: 1) make the series color more opaque like this: chart1.Series[1].Color = Color.FromArgb(128, chart1.Series[1].Color); 2) Change the order of your data. We paint the series in the order they are given to the chart. So, if the line is first it will get painted first. Thus a bar after a line will hide it as you see. So, if you can, change the order it would solve the problem. But this is not always possible. As a conciliation, the new version of ChartFX handles this problem in a variety of ways. hope this helps. -c "Emma" <eluna@bitconsultingusa.net> wrote in message news:4FtVplTxFHA.1764@webserver3.softwarefx.com... > Hi, I want to show two charts as one. > > One chart is Bar and the other is Line, so I did but the first chart > "hides" the second one.
