rotate/elevate

[Jennifer]

we have added the chart1.Tools.add(trotatetool.create(self))
to our project, but we cannot find anywhere the commands to
do either rotation or elevation Can you give uis a small code snippet
to point the way?

Thanks

Jennifer

Hi Jennifer,

you can do :

Code: Select all

procedure TForm1.BitBtn1Click(Sender: TObject);
begin
Chart1.Tools.Add(TRotateTool.Create(self));
(Chart1.Tools.Items[0] as TRotateTool).Inverted := true;
(Chart1.Tools.Items[0] as TRotateTool).Pen.Visible := true;
end;

Hi-

I'm a little confused here-I had expectred there to be a rotate method and
an elevate method.something like:

[object]. rotate(angle) or [object.elevate[angle] This syntax may be incorrect,but we are for the methods to actually enter the bangle amgle
and perform the geometry operastion.

Thanks,

Jennifer

Hi.

See my other reply about this topic(http://www.teechart.net/support/modules ... 40fecbc0b3). Basically all you have to do is set the TChart.Aspect Rotation and Elevation properties.

Hi Jennifer,

to set the Rotation and Elevation via code you must use :
Chart1.View3DOptions.Rotation := X;
Chart1.View3DOptions.Elevation := X;
