3d lines in 3D serie

Hello,
I'm using TeeChart Pro 7 AX, and I'm drawing a 3D serie (XYZ), the serie draws OK, but I want to have 3d lines, like if it were pipes (In fact, I'm drawing a pipe representation).

Apparently the "depth" attribute of the serie works only in normal (i.e. 2D series).

Is possible to draw 3D lines y 3DSeries? Or this is possible only in 2D series?

Best regards,

Hi ACC,

You could try using Point3D series making their pointer invisible and changing the line pen width as shown here:

Code: Select all

Private Sub Form_Load()    
    TChart1.Series(0).FillSampleValues 20
    
    With TChart1.Series(0).asPoint3D
        .Pointer.Visible = False
        .LinePen.Width = 3
    End With
End Sub

Almost, but sufficient

Hi Narcís, it gives a more voluminous look to the line, even not being a true 3d line.

By now I will increase the width of the line.

But just as a "wish feature" I've sent an attached picture showing the desired appearance I want to the steema.public.attachments newsgroup under the subject "3d lines in 3d plots".

Does exists an estimated product roadmap to know which features will be included in future versions?.

Hi ACC,

Not for now but we are working on arranging it for TeeChart Pro v8.
