TCursorTool calculation

Post by Banjovi » Mon Mar 16, 2015 8:07 pm

Using TeeChart Pro 7.07 with BCB6

I'm trying to calculate the Y value of a TLineSeries on a cursor event. To complicate matters, I have multiple charts on the form and multiple series on each chart. What I want to do is report the y value for each series that a vertical cursor intersects. Each series has its own custom vertical axis. All series share the same x-axis but have varying numbers of points. I've tried several methods used in examples from the forum, but can't seem to get the right thing.

How can I calculate the correct Y value for each series?

Code: Select all

void __fastcall TfrmChartDisp::CursorChange(TCursorTool *Sender, Integer x, Integer y, Double XValue, Double YValue, TChartSeries *Series,
       Integer ValueIndex)
{
  String s;

  if( Sender )
  {
      // Which chart?
      chrt = (TChart *) Sender->ParentChart;

      for (int i = 0; i < chrt->SeriesCount(); i++)
      {
         int xpos = chrt->Axes->Bottom->CalcXPosValue(XValue);
         int ypos = chrt->Series[i]->CalcYPos(ValueIndex);

         double d = 100.0;
         int YValIndex = Sender->NearestPoint(cssVertical, d);

         s = String( XValue ) + String(", ") + String( YValue );

         // Add label next to cursor at ypos
         chrt->Canvas->TextOut( xpos, ypos, s);
      }
  }
}

Hello,

Have you seen the Interpolation example?
Take a look at the demo at All features\Welcome!\Chart Styles\Standard\Line (Strip)\Interpolating Line series

Thank you for the suggestion, however that item is not included in the v7.07 demo. Is it available online somewhere?
