Re: Trouble Using the Series Object

[User (Legacy)]

Thanks.  These two lines of code saved the day. 

I am having another wierd problem using the series object.  It seems to me 

that if I modify a property of a series in code that I can no longer modify 

it using the properties dialog from the toolbar.  For example this is what I 

am doing in code. 

  ICfxSeriesEnumPtr newSeriesEnumPtr = m_spChartFX->GetSeries(); 

  // Get a reference to the series object for this trace 

  ICfxSeriesPtr seriesPtr = newSeriesEnumPtr->GetItem(i); 

  // TEST RANDOM DATA 

  m_traceVariables[i]->m_value = rand() % 100; 

  // Add the new data point for the series 

  seriesPtr->PutYvalue(0, m_traceVariables[i]->m_value); 

  // Set visual properties of the series. 

  seriesPtr->put_Color(m_traceVariables[i]->m_colour); 

  seriesPtr->put_LineStyle(m_traceVariables[i]->m_lineStyle); 

  seriesPtr->put_MarkerShape(m_traceVariables[i]->m_markerShape); 

  seriesPtr->put_Visible(m_traceVariables[i]->m_visible); 

  seriesPtr->put_LineWidth(m_traceVariables[i]->m_lineWidth); 

  seriesPtr->put_MarkerSize(m_traceVariables[i]->m_markerSize); 

  seriesPtr->put_MarkerStep(m_traceVariables[i]->m_markerStep); 

  seriesPtr->put_PointLabels(m_traceVariables[i]->m_showPointLabels); 

Each of these properties that I have modifed using the put_ method I can no 

longer modify using the properties dialog.  To make this problem a bit more 

"colourful", the only property that I can modify programmatically without 

effecting the properties dialog is the Color property. 

Is there also a special way to call OpenDataEx when I only want to modify 

these properties.  I have tried using COD_ADDPOINTS and COD_COLORS. 

Is it correct to read the property of the series object using the get_ 

method and modify it using the put_ method OR is there another way? 

Thanks
