Can't find appropriate gallery

Hello

I'm using ChartFX ClientServer 5.1 (it is integrated in ActiveReport2). I

have to develope a chart according to the sample attached.

I generated the SQL result set with 7 Series, for the red rectangle I have

the minimum and maximum values.

But I didn't succeed to generate this chart. What gallerytype should I use?

I tried it with stacked bar and added 2 white bars for filling bottom and

top space. But it somehow glues to the zeroline!

Please help, this is rather urgent!

Thanks in advance

This code will give you a nice starting point but I don't think you will be 

able to get the series legend box exactly as in your picture. You may want

to try using the UserLegendBox.

// Hardcoded data

chart1.OpenData(COD.Values,3,3);

chart1.OpenData(COD.IniValues,3,3);

chart1.Value[0,0] = 38;

chart1.Value[1,0] = 12;

chart1.Value[2,0] = 5;

chart1.Value[0,1] = 28;

chart1.Value[1,1] = 14;

chart1.Value[2,1] = 7;

chart1.Value[0,2] = -4;

chart1.Value[1,2] = -6;

chart1.Value[2,2] = -8;

// Note that line chart will ignore ini Values

// so we only supply ini values for bars, this could not be correct if user

can change galleries

chart1.IniValue[0,0] = -10;

chart1.IniValue[0,1] = -40;

chart1.IniValue[0,2] = -12;

chart1.CloseData(COD.IniValues);

chart1.CloseData(COD.Values);

chart1.Series[0].Gallery = Gallery.Bar;

chart1.Series[0].Color = Color.Transparent;

chart1.Series[0].BorderColor = Color.Red;

chart1.Series[0].BorderEffect = BorderEffect.None;

chart1.Series[1].Gallery = Gallery.Lines;

chart1.Series[2].Gallery = Gallery.Lines;

chart1.AxisY.Max = 50;

chart1.AxisY.Min = -50;

// Use Annotations to get Min-Max labels

AnnotationX annotationX = new AnnotationX();

chart1.Extensions.Add(annotationX);

// You will probably do this in a loop for all values/inivalues of series 0

AnnotationText annText = new AnnotationText();

annotationX.List.Add(annText);

double maxValue = chart1.Value[0,0];

annText.Text = maxValue.ToString();

annText.Color = Color.White;

annText.Border.Color = Color.Transparent;

// Note that nth bar is drawn at X=n+1 so that is where we need to attach it

annText.Attach(1,maxValue);

Sorry, I just realized your question was about ChartFX Client Server 5.1 and 

I replied using ChartFX for .NET code. You should be able to translate the

code ...

Remove BorderEffect (this property does not exist on 5.1)

Replace Chart1.AxisY with Chart1.Axis(AXIS_Y)

The parameter for AnnotationText.Attach is a string

Hello JC

Thank you JC! The thing with the iniValues works fine.

Now I have two more questions (be aware that I use ChartFX Client Server

5.1) :

- Can I set the Color of the bar transparent?

- How do I use the UserLegendBox? I didn't find anything in the help

thanks and regars

We define CHART_TRANSPARENT as 0x40000000

> - How do I use the UserLegendBox? I didn't find anything in the help

This is not supported in 5.X, I am afraid you may have to paint the legend

box on your own as the default series legend box will not show exactly as

you want.
