Scrolling Extra Legend?

Hello, I have a project that displays two legends, the second of which is a TExtraLegendTool. I see in the Legend Scrollbar and TeeScrollbar ThumbGradient examples that it is possible to create a TLegendScrollBar tool, but this appears to apply to the default legend. Is there any way to create an ex...

Re: Multiple Legends with Chart Draw Event Overrides

Narcís, hi -

We've decided to align our legends to the right of the chart, and are no longer pursuing drawing beneath the chart. If we do need to resize the chart's bottom margin, I will be sure to try using the Chart.OnAfterDraw event.

Thanks!

Re: Extra Legend Tool: Large Symbols Overwrite Legend Item Text

Narcís, hello - I was already leveraging the Chart.Legend.Symbol.OnDraw event to create the differently sized squares. I have also overloaded the Chart.OnGetLegendText event to customize the strings displayed next to each of the sized symbols. I was not able to get these events to produce the look I...

Re: Extra Legend Tool: Large Symbols Overwrite Legend Item Text

It's just me again... Is there any way that I could configure a relatively sized legend that is not a TExtraLegendTool and is aligned to the bottom of the chart? The code I have now for a default, bottom aligned legend with various sized rectangles overwrites both the text and the boundaries of the ...

Extra Legend Tool: Large Symbols Overwrite Legend Item Text

Hello! My application needs to display a second legend using a TExtraLegendTool. For each legend item, the symbol will be a different sized square which will correspond to the point size of that data item as drawn on the graph. My problem is that when I get the symbols the way I want them, the legen...

Re: Multiple Legends with Chart Draw Event Overrides

Narcís, hello - Thank you for the code snips!! I am now able to get the legends to be the same width and also to change the chart margins so that the legend is not truncated if it aligned to the bottom. In my sample code, I am calculating the Chart's MarginBottom in the FormShow event. Is there a pa...

Re: Multiple Legends with Chart Draw Event Overrides

Narcís, hello! Thank you for the suggestion to use TExtraLegendTool! I was able to make a small project that does exactly what I need and am confident I'll be able to translate what I've learned about TExtraLegendTool into my main program. I do still have a couple of questions about legend alignment...

Left Align Legend Text?

Hello, Is there a way that I can get the legend text to appear right next to the legend symbol? It appears that the legend items are alloted a width based upon the length of the longest text of all the legend items. This makes the legend items with shorter text display with a lot of space between th...
