Problem w/ restoring tchart state from a saved string

We use the export and import "asNative" capabilities of TChart in order to implement a cancel button to get the user back to a known state. Unfortunately certain changes don't seem to be undone. We have found several cases of this, although we don't feel like this is all of them. As a workaround for...

Problems with scrolling w/ the Right mouse button

When using the Right mouse button to scroll a chart (any plot will do, but a simple 2-d plot is most convenient), scrolling to the left or up accelerates incorrectly. The chart will move faster than the mouse. Moving to the right seems to track more accurately. Secondly, the mouse is not captured, s...

Control 'LBTools' has no parent window

We are getting a strange error when trying to add text annotations to our chart. To repeat the issue: 1) Use right-click save-as to save this file: http://www.phoenix-int.com/~nsharp/teeChartAnnotationBug.xls 2) Load the file and press the button on the main sheet. 3) a dialog will pop up. Press the...

Well, after a huge pile of paper on the floor beside my printer, I believe I have everything printing O.K. Used the technique mentioned in some of your pages where you export a meta-file and then print the metafile. I couldn't find any sample code for VB, so it took some finagling to figure it out. ...

Problems w/ rotateLabel and printing

We use the RotateLabel function to draw text in the chart_onAfterDraw event. This works great on screen and even w/ exporting the graph. However, when you print, the rotated text suddenly becomes huge. A workaround is to export the EMF and then print that, but it is cumbersome. Here is an example, u...

Have axis labels automatically rotate with chart

It would be much prettier if the axis labels automatically stayed at the same angle as the axis as drawn so that as you rotated the chart around, they didn't stick out like, well, sore thumbs.

In addition, everywhere where you can add text to the chart (under Chart/Titles, for example), you have tabs for "Style" and "Text". It is confusing to type in your text on the "Style" page and choose your styles(fonts) on the "Text" page.

I am using 6.0.0.4. I have made an example excel file to demonstrate the problem. Use "right-click"-save-as to save the file locally. 1) Load the file 2) click on the button 3) Right-click drag in the chart. It'll turn to 3d and the chart will move as a whole (it actually pans and scrolls at the sam...

How can I programmatically select an option in TeeCommander

We are using a TeeCommander with a custom set of buttons using the .Buttons = Array (... ) syntax. How can we programmatically set which button is currently depressed. By default after changing the buttons, none are depressed.

Make the options dialog easier to follow and customizable

The options dialog for tchart (tchart.showeditor) is tremendously powerful. However, it is very difficult to understand and follow. Here are some comments that may help: - Having tabs within tabs is very difficult to understand. You can get tabs 4 levels deep in places. In particular you can end up ...

How to turn off chart movement via right-click

It appears that there is a mode where right-click and drag turns on 3d mode and moves the entire chart panel (changes aspect.horizoffset and vertoffset). Using the TeeCommander you can get rid of this by clicking on the select mode, but I need a way to programmatically turn this off. Is there an app...

Problem with ShowEditor and its modal behavior

We have a problem with the ShowEditor call and the behavior of the modal dialog that is displayed. When the dialog comes up, it is modal (which is preferrable), but shows up in the task bar as a separate application called "Editor" (which is annoying, but not fatal). The problem is that if a differe...
