Neoteny Posted September 18, 2007 Report Share Posted September 18, 2007 I (and my customers) are used to having ticks and gridlines between clustered bar groups. In ChartFX it seems there's no way to accomplish this. ticks and gridlines are always drawn through a bar cluster and are centered above the label. It would be nice if it would be an option in ChartFX 7 (is there a release dat yet?) to place the grid between the bar clusters. It would make the vertical interlacing look better too. Any thoughts on this one? Regards, Caius Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neoteny Posted September 24, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 24, 2007 On second thought... There are some strange consequences. Suppose the chart decides that the best way to place the ticks/gridlines is every three bars. Suppose months are plotted on the x-axis, from januari to december. The labels are centered and end up under the 2,5,8,11 bar, corresponding to the months februari, may, august, november. But the labels that are displayed are the last labels before the division: march, june, september, december. This is very confusing. One tends to interpret the label to match the bar right above it, not the one to the right of it. I can't think of a way to correct this, because there's no way to find out how many labels are skipped (the 'Every') when the mode is automatic.
