Re: force the width of bar; set different colors in a series

[User (Legacy)]

I'll answer this for myself, but I'd still like an answer to my previous

question (how can we detect errors in ChartFX and handle them ourselves?)

for question 1 use: chart.volume = xxx%

for question 2 do something like the following:

chart.MultipleColors = True

Dim nNumPoints

nNumPoints = chart.nValues

For j=0 To (nNumPoints - 1)

chart.Color(j) = CHART_PALETTECOLOR Or j
