Urgent Problem With Legend Boxes Please Respond

[User (Legacy)]

Hello!

If you follow my posting yesterday (Problem Producing A Legend Box) you will

see that I am still having problems.  As Chris suggested, I am now asking

anyone else, especially those at Software FX, can help me.  I won't bother

repeating myself as you can follow the posting below.  The modified file is

attached.  My problem now is I have the right number of legend boxes, but

the colours are wrong

A rapid response would be greatly appreciated

Cheers

The legend box code assumes 1 label per point, in order to paint a color box

in it we use the color array as a 1-dimensional array so in your case we are

picking the wrong color (it would work if your chart had 1 series).

Your previous code

   cfxChart1.Legend(aLegends(nCount))=aPeriodNames(nCount)

would give you the right colors but we limit the number of labels we paint

the legend box to the number of points in the chart (that is why you only

get two labels instead of 4).

To workaround these issues you will have to use the Series Legend instead of

Legend. We do not limit the number of labels painted in your series legend

so it works fine. These are the code changes you will have to make

At the end of GMTColour (Replace Legend with SerLeg and remove the division

by numseries)

for nCount=0 to UBound(aPeriodNames)

    cfxChart1.SerLeg(aLegends(nCount))=aPeriodNames(nCount)

next

In setBasicChartData (Replace LegendBox with SerLegBox and comment out the

line that set the first series legend)

'    cfxChart1.SerLeg(0)="Profile"

    cfxChart1.SerLegBoxObj.Docked = 258

    cfxChart1.SerLegBoxObj.SkipEmpty=True

    cfxChart1.SerLegBoxObj.docked=TGFP_BOTTOM

    cfxChart1.SerLegBox = True

I did not check the tooltip of the points which is the only thing that could

get affected by this change but I think these changes will get you the chart

you want.
