Hello,

I'm a little confused: in th following code segment (C++)

Serie1.FillSampleValues(20);
Serie1.GetAsContour().SetAutomaticLevels(true);
Serie1.GetAsContour().SetNumLevels(15);
long lNumLevels=Serie1.GetAsContour().GetNumLevels();
//
Serie1.GetAsContour().SetAutomaticLevels(false);
Serie1.GetAsContour().SetNumLevels(15);
lNumLevels=Serie1.GetAsContour().GetNumLevels();

"serie1" is a contour serie. I try to get the Number of contour levels. In the first case (SetAutomaticLevels(true) ) the function GetNumLevels() returns the correct value 15.
In the second case (SetAutomaticLevels(false)) the function GetNumLevels() returns 0.

What happens here, what I'm doing wrong?

Hi Raimund,

I'm afraid this is a bug. I've added it (TV52013723) to the defect list to be investigated for next releases.

Hi Raimund,

I've been investigating the issue now and found that if you set AutomaticLevels to false you need to create the levels before retrieving its value, for example:

Code: Select all

Private Sub Form_Load()
    TChart1.Aspect.View3D = False
    
    TChart1.AddSeries scContour
    TChart1.Series(0).FillSampleValues 10
    
    TChart1.Series(0).asContour.AutomaticLevels = False
    TChart1.Series(0).asContour.Levels.AddLevel -1, clTeeColor
    TChart1.Series(0).asContour.Levels.AddLevel -0.8, clTeeColor
    TChart1.Series(0).asContour.Levels.AddLevel -0.6, clTeeColor
    TChart1.Series(0).asContour.Levels.AddLevel -0.4, clTeeColor
    TChart1.Series(0).asContour.Levels.AddLevel -0.2, clTeeColor
    TChart1.Series(0).asContour.Levels.AddLevel 0, clTeeColor
    TChart1.Series(0).asContour.Levels.AddLevel 0.2, clTeeColor
    TChart1.Series(0).asContour.Levels.AddLevel 0.4, clTeeColor
    TChart1.Series(0).asContour.Levels.AddLevel 0.5, clTeeColor
    TChart1.Series(0).asContour.Levels.AddLevel 0.8, clTeeColor

    TChart1.Header.Text.Clear
    TChart1.Header.Text.Add CStr(TChart1.Series(0).asContour.NumLevels)
End Sub

So I don't consider this being a bug and therefore closed the issue in the defect list.
