User (Legacy) Posted February 20, 2003 Report Share Posted February 20, 2003 Hi I am charting some data that requires a log base 10 Y Axis. My problem is that when generating the chart I only want to show the horizontal grid lines at the values shown on the Y axis i.e. 10 , 100 , 1000 etc and NOT at the other major steps as you get a clustering of horizontal grid lines. Ive enclosed a picture of what im currently getting to help. How can I do this? Thanks Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Software FX Posted February 20, 2003 Report Share Posted February 20, 2003 I'm afraid this is not possible using gridlines. You can achieve this by creating constant lines at the desired locations. -- FP Software FX, Inc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
User (Legacy) Posted February 20, 2003 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2003 Is there a way to set a contant line to the background so it does not overlap the chart objects? at the moment i am drawing a ling on top of a bar chart which looks quite crude.

Software FX Posted February 20, 2003 Report Share Posted February 20, 2003 Yes. The constant line style has a flag called CC_BACKONLY. To turn it ON you can do something like: ChartFX1.ConstantLine(0).Style = ChartFX1.ConstantLine(0).Style Or CC_BACKONLY Make sure you include the appropriate include files (.inc) if you are using ASP otherwise CC_BACKONLY will not be defined. -- FP Software FX, Inc.

Software FX Posted February 21, 2003 Report Share Posted February 21, 2003 This works for both 3D and 2D charts. -- FP Software FX, Inc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
User (Legacy) Posted February 21, 2003 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2003 I cant seem to get this to work , here is a code sample. The constant lines still over write the charts. Any tips?

Software FX Posted February 21, 2003 Report Share Posted February 21, 2003 CC_BACKONLY is not defined unless you include: <!-- #include virtual="/Include/CfxIEExtra.inc" --> -- FP Software FX, Inc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
