plot xy chart with logarithm x-axis

[User (Legacy)]

Dear Support People,

When I plotted a XY chart with logarithm x-axis in VC++/MFC, except the

curve i should get, i found the chart also draws a straight line from the

first point to somewhere else. What can I do with it?

The codes I wrote is:

m_pChartFX->Axis->Item[AXIS_X]->LogBase = 10;

VARIANT var;

VariantInit(&var);

V_VT(&var) = VT_I4;

var.intVal = AF_SCIENTIFIC;

m_pChartFX->Axis->Item[AXIS_X]->Format = var;

m_pChartFX->Axis->Item[AXIS_X]->Min = 0.000001;

m_pChartFX->Axis->Item[AXIS_X]->Max = 1;

m_pChartFX->Axis->Item[AXIS_Y]->Min = 0;

m_pChartFX->Axis->Item[AXIS_Y]->Max = 1;

m_pChartFX->OpenDataEx(COD_XVALUES, 1, 41);

for(i=60; i<101; i++)

{

    m_pChartFX->ValueEx[0][i] = 1-y[i]/100;

    m_pChartFX->XValueEx[0][i] = (x[i]/100);

}

m_pChartFX->CloseData((CfxCod) (COD_XVALUES));

Thanks!

This is because you are leaving some point uninitialized (from 0 to 59). 

Uninitialized points will default to ZERTO for both X and Y values. The line 

that you see is the one going from (0,0) to the first data point you are 

setting.

You need to set values to ALL points. If you want to hide a point, set 

CHART_HIDDEN to its Y-Value.

Thanks for the help!

I tried to set CHART_HIDDEN to those hidden points' y values, but I got

error:

"CHART_HIDDEN": undeclared identifier'.

My codes are (in VC++/MFC):

m_pChartFX->OpenDataEx(COD_XVALUES, 1, 101);

for(int i=0; i<101; i++)

{

    if(x[i] == 0)

        m_pChartFX->ValueEx[0][i] = CHART_HIDDEN;

    else

    {

        m_pChartFX->ValueEx[0][i] = 1-y[i]/100;

        m_pChartFX->XValueEx[0][i] = x[i]/100;

    }

}

Could you tell me what is the problem? Thanks a lot!

You need to include CFXOCX.BAS in your VB project.

CFXOCX.BAS is located under your Chart FX Installation folder \ include.
