Gradient BackGround and PSS

[User (Legacy)]

I am re-posting this.. it's been amost ten days since any response to the

last post titled "Simple PSS Example with C#".

To recap, JT sent me some sample code of C# and PSS, that I got working.  My

chart however, was still failing, after some trial and error I discovered

that if I removed the Gradient Background code below PSS returns the Chart

fine.  If I add the code below to JT's sample it too fails.  JT's sample is

attached  ..can you please confirm the issue.

GradientBackground myGradient = new

GradientBackground(GradientType.Vertical); myGradient.Color[0] = Color.Blue;

myGradient.Color[1] = Color.Black; myGradient.Position[0] = 0;

myGradient.Position[1] = 1; Chart1.BackObject = myGradient;

Chart1.InsideBackObject = myGradient;

I just retested JT's code along with your gradient code with our most recent

build (1353) and it works fine.

We recently fixed an issue related to GradientBackground serialization that

will in fact affect your scenario, even though we recommend you download the

most recent service pack (you may also want to make sure that the new

ChartFX dlls are copied to the bin subdirectory of the PSS folder after you

restart the PSS service) you could also use the following workaround

replace

/*

myGradient.Color[0] = Color.Blue;

myGradient.Color[1] = Color.Black;

myGradient.Position[0] = 0;

myGradient.Position[1] = 1;

*/

with

myGradient.ColorFrom = Color.Red;

myGradient.ColorTo = Color.Green;

Note that the new code will achieve the same results, the serialization bug

affected both the Color and Position arrays but you can use the ColorFrom

and ColorTo properties if only two colors will be used.
