Steema Central

Dear Sir\Madam

I am using the C++ component of Visual Studio 2008
I use a scColorGrid.
Data is entered into the grid in a sequence read from a file for instance the numeric value of 1 to 100 and displayed as follows

|5 10 15 100
|4 9 14 99
|3 8 13 98
|2 7 12......... 97
|1 6 11......... 96
|_____________________

In essence bottom to top, left to right

I would like the data to be displayed as follows:

|
|16 17 18 19 20
|11 12 13 14 15
|6 7 8 9 10
|1 2 3 4 5
|_________________________

but without changing the sequence of entering the data to the VARIANT that passes the data to the chart

Hi Jacques,

I think you could try using GridTranspose tool? Something like following (this is Visual Basic 6):

I translated the Visual basic to C++ as follows:

1) m_ssdPlotControl->GetTools().Add(tcGridTranspose);
2) m_ssdPlotControl->GetTools().GetItems(0).GetAsGridTranspose().GetSeries() = m_ssdPlotControl->Series(0);
3) m_ssdPlotControl->GetTools().GetItems(0).GetAsGridTranspose().Transpose();

but I get the following error

1>c:\pds\projects\gew\cjpu_iii\sw\pc\tada\snapshotmodule.cpp(826) : error C2679: binary '=' : no operator found which takes a right-hand operand of type 'CSeries' (or there is no acceptable conversion)
1> c:\program files\microsoft sdks\windows\v6.0a\include\oaidl.h(492): could be 'tagVARIANT &tagVARIANT::operator =(const tagVARIANT &)'


for line 3 of the code.


Could you perhaps explain what I am doing wrong

Hi jaques,

You can do something like this:

Hello Narcis,

I implemented your code :
m_Chart1.Series(scSurface);
m_Chart1.Series(2).FillSampleValues(10);

m_Chart1.GetTools().Add(tcGridTranspose);
m_Chart1.GetTools().GetItems(0).GetAsGridTranspose().SetSeries(COleVariant("2"));
m_Chart1.GetTools().GetItems(0).GetAsGridTranspose().Transpose();

I however changed it as follows:

m_Chart1.AddSeries(scSurface);
m_Chart1.Series(0).FillSampleValues(10);

m_Chart1.GetTools().Add(tcGridTranspose);
m_Chart1.GetTools().GetItems(0).GetAsGridTranspose().SetSeries(COleVariant(_T("0"))); // BECAUSE WE ARE USING UNICODE
m_Chart1.GetTools().GetItems(0).GetAsGridTranspose().Transpose();


I plotted the chart, afterwards I removed the transpose tool, thus only using

m_Chart1.AddSeries(scSurface);
m_Chart1.Series(02).FillSampleValues(10);

And the plot remains the same, the axis from left to right is indexed 1 to 10,I feel this is incorrect as I would expect the x and z axis to swap.

Hi Jacques,

Code below works fine for me here. Can you please try if it works fine for you?
Thanks in advance.

This works fine.

Thank you very much.
