Some issues in the 8.0.0.5

[OptUser]

Hi,

I'm using the TeeChart v7.0.1.3 since it seems to be a stable version.
Unfortunatelly v7.0.1.3 has an issue with the legend's contents that we would like to resolve and it is fixed in the latest versions, the problem is that v8.0.0.4 hangs when the control is shrinked and v8.0.0.5 has an issue with the XY line charts.

I've attached 3 screenshots to show the problem and how it is in v7.0.1.3 (it works correctly in that version).

Note: The images below are attached in news://www.steema.net/steema.public.attachments in a post with the same subject.

- Chart1.png: Shows how initially the chart looks like (both v8.0.0.5 and v7.0.1.3 look the same at this point).
- Chart2.png: Shows how the chart looks like in v7.0.1.3 when its displaced a bit to the right (this is OK).
- Chart3.png: Shows the same displacement but in v8.0.0.5. As you can see there are parts in the graphic that are missing.

After some testing I noticed that this issue does not happen in some charts configurations, nevertheless I cannot use it as it is.

There is another issue but I'm not sure why or when happens, the problem is that the graphic cannot be panned unless the pointer is over a part of the chart or the gridlines.

Will a new build be available with these issues resolved? And when?

Hi OptUser,

First of all I'd like you to confirm my impression. Have you turned Chart2.png and Chart3.png? You say that there is an error in Chart3.png but it looks wrong in Chart2.png, not in Chart3.png.

If I understand well, this was a bug already solved in the actual sources so it will be fixed with the next maintenance release.

Here is the simple code that reproduces the issue with 8.0.0.5 but not with the actual sources:

Code: Select all

Private Sub Form_Load()
  TChart1.Aspect.View3D = False
  
  TChart1.AddSeries scLine
  TChart1.Series(0).FillSampleValues 5
  TChart1.Series(0).asLine.Pointer.Visible = True
End Sub

Finally, you could send us your project that reproduces the problem and we'll confirm if it is solved or not. You can either post your files at news://www.steema.net/steema.public.attachments newsgroups or at our upload page.

PS: Note that there is TeeChart 7.0.1.4 also available.

Hi Yeray,

Yes you are right, I made a mistake when I renamed the screenshots. It's the problem you suggested.
When will the next maintainance release be available?

Thanks.

Hi OptUser,

I can't tell you a date since we haven't fixed one yet. But I hope it will be in a few weeks.
