Radar

[AlbertoRG]

Hi Team.

Im looking forward to built a radar chart and im wondering if there is any way to reach something like this. See pic attached.

Thanks in advance.

Best regards.

Hello,

This looks very similar to the discussed here:

Hi Thanks for the quick reply..

Will look into it.

Happy Sant Jordi btw..

Hi Alberto,

Also note the TPolarGridSeries could fit your requirements:

Hello again Alberto,

I've been playing with the TPolarSeries and that's the best I could achieve with it:

Code: Select all

const
    SectorNames : array[0..9] of string =
    (
      'POSSESSION', 'OFFENSIVENESS', 'HIGH PRESS', 'CROSSING',
      'FAST TEMPO', 'SUSTAINED THREAT', 'BUILD UP', 'MAINTENANCE',
      'COUNTER ATTACK', 'DIRECT PLAY'
    ) ;

    TeePiStep:Double      = Pi/180.0;

var Series1: TPolarGridSeries;

procedure TForm1.FormCreate(Sender: TObject);

Hi Yeray,

That looks very very close to what i need..thanks for the work.

I need to translate the sample to VB6 and see if i can get the same-

Thanks again.

Alberto.

Hi Alberto,

That looks very very close to what i need..thanks for the work.

We've just implemented a new DrawStyle so with the next version it will be possible to do this:

Code: Select all

Series1.DrawStyle := dsCircled;

This style still has to be polished (ie the circle labels aren't correctly positioned on the center of the slices) but it looks promising:

I'm sorry. Since TeeChart ActiveX is a wrapper from TeeChart VCL we have to develop the new features in Delphi and TeeChart ActiveX inherits them automatically or with a few adaptations.
If you find problems to translate it, don't hesitate to let us know.
