Special Objects

[Sean]

When l add specialobjects the chart is returns a error in the desginer "SpecialObjects could not be initialized. Details: Entry point was not found." 

I have re-installed the chatfx and the latest SP

 <chartfx7:Chart ID="chart" runat="server" Height="380px" RenderFormat="Auto" BackColor="#FFFFFF" PlotAreaColor="Transparent" Width="375px">

<LegendBox Visible="False">

</LegendBox>

<SpecialObjects>

<chartfxadornments:ImageBorder AssemblyName="ChartFX.WebForms.Adornments" Color="109, 125, 138">

</chartfxadornments:ImageBorder>

<chartfxadornments:SolidBackground AssemblyName="ChartFX.WebForms.Adornments">

</chartfxadornments:SolidBackground>

</SpecialObjects>

<Series>

<chartfx7:SeriesAttributes />

<chartfx7:SeriesAttributes />

</Series>

</chartfx7:Chart>

What version of VS are you using?

Can you please include the header of your page. You should havesomething like this:

 <%@ Register assembly="ChartFX.WebForms" namespace="ChartFX.WebForms" tagprefix="chartfx8" %>

<%

@ Register assembly="ChartFX.WebForms.Adornments" namespace="ChartFX.WebForms.Adornments" tagprefix="chartfx8adornments" %>

<%

@ Register assembly="ChartFX.WebForms" namespace="ChartFX.WebForms.Galleries" tagprefix="chartfx8galleries" %>

In particular for this case, the registration of ChartFX.WebForms.Adornments is required. If it isn't there you can add it. In order to ber compatible with VS 2008 we had to do some changes there but forms create before the latest servce pack may present this problem.

Frank,

 I added the references again and add the charts again and it works.

I have attached the code just so you can have a look. We are using VS2005 by the way. 

Thanks.
