Re: Date Chart and AddArray - Multiple series, different dimensions?

[User (Legacy)]

Thanks for the reply.

Would the feature happen to be on any feature list for any future releases

(even a wish list :-) )?

Thanks,

Hello,

No this is not supported.  All series need to be the same size.  If you

have one series of 9 data points and another series of 10 data points

then you could make the 10th data point of the first series equal to

Chart_Hidden.  This will cause the point not to be shown rather than

equating it to zero.

Conversation: Date Chart and AddArray - Multiple series, different

dimensions?

Subject: Date Chart and AddArray - Multiple series, different

dimensions?

IE 2000, ASP

I have a XY chart where the X axis values are dates, and the Y axis

values are percentages.  This chart has 1-4 series.  I'm adding the data

using "AddArray" and the CfxData.Array.

In every case, each set of the corresponding date array and value array

are the same size.  If every set of arrays all are the same size, then

everything works as I would expect.  However, if two series have a

different number of data points, even by one, then it seems it tries to

fill in the shorter set with CDate(0), (Dec. 30, 1899), and my chart

ends up looking like:

with all the data scrunched over to the right.

Here's what the relevant code looks like:

      ' Add X value arrays (dates)

      For nCount=0 To UBound(aDates)

        ' aDates(nCount) is an array itself

        CfxArray.AddArray aDates(nCount)

        oChart.DataType(nCount) = CDT_XVALUE

      Next

      nChartArrayYAxisLBound = UBound(aDates) + 1

      ' Then add the Y value arrays

      For nCount=0 To UBound(aResults)

        CfxArray.AddArray aResults(nCount)

        oChart.DataType(nChartArrayYAxisLBound + nCount) = CDT_VALUE

      Next

     oChart.GetExternalData CfxArray

     ...

I can provide more detail if necessary.

So essentially, my question is: can I have a date XY chart with multiple

series where the number of data points varies from series to series?

Thanks,
