Drawline Tool Features

Post by Quant » Wed May 20, 2015 6:01 am

Dear Steema,
First of all thank you for adding new styles (e.g.Ellipses,Rectangles) in Drawline tool. I am surprised that Triangle is still not included in this tool. It will help us alot if you add Triangle. I will be glad if you add more features to parallel lines like number of line property. For example if i set no. of line to 3 then while drawing it will draw 3 equidistance parallel lines. This is called as Cycle Lines in Financial Charts. I am adding sample image for your referance.

We have created a new tool called CycleLines which you can test in an Eval assembly of TeeChart.dll you can download from here.

To use this tool, try code such as:

Code: Select all

    Candle candle = new Candle();
    CycleLines cycle = new CycleLines();

    private void InitializeChart()
    {
      tChart1.Aspect.View3D = false;
      tChart1.Series.Add(candle).FillSampleValues(200);

      tChart1.Tools.Add(cycle);
      cycle.LineNumber = 3;
    }
and then use the mouse to draw a line on the chart to and from the required chart areas.

Is this what you had in mind?

Dear Christopher,
I am very very thankful that you helped us by creating this major finantial tool. This divides my chart area in equal parts. the LineNumber property of this tool is not working properly as i set LineNumber 2 then it draws 6 lines. Is there any other use of this LineNumber property ? After drawing lines we also require feature to drag and increase spacing between lines. This line spacing must be increase by property also e.g. LineSpacing which can be set programatically. So i can set spacing in Number of days.

Hello,

I've done a little more work on this which you can download from here.

You can now add and modify lines at runtime, e.g.

Code: Select all

    Candle candle = new Candle();
    CycleLines lines = new CycleLines();

    private void InitializeChart()
    {
      tChart1.Aspect.View3D = false;
      tChart1.Series.Add(candle).FillSampleValues(200);

      tChart1.Tools.Add(lines);

      lines.LineNumber = 3;
    }

    private void button4_Click_1(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
      DrawLineItem l = new DrawLineItem(lines);

      l.StartPos = new PointDouble(candle.DateValues[50], candle.OpenValues[50]);
      l.EndPos = new PointDouble(candle.DateValues[100], candle.OpenValues[100]);
      lines.Invalidate();
    }

    private void button7_Click_1(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
      lines.LineSpacing = 20;
    }
Also you can change the distance between the lines by pressing the Control key and dragging them.

i used the last evalution u posted. I found some problems while using the tool. Listing them below.

1) line must be selected when clicked on any particular line of cyclelines. (selected line not getting highlighted.)
2) user can click and drag any line to increase distance. (only dragging on first line worked ok.)
3) all lines of cycleline group must always remain equidistant. (when i clicked on second line and dragged to increase distance. it messed up)

Other than logging your request for a new feature into our online issue tracking system for it to be implemented at a future date, I'm afraid I'm not sure how I can help you further here.
