Hi Trevor,

That's strange. Are you using the example you posted here?
I'd suggest you to check the IDE paths. It could be possible that you were showing the about screen at design time and the surfaces with holes at runtime? If so, if the v2012.05 lib path is still referenced in the lib list of paths, you could be using different TeeChart versions at designtime and at runtime.

I understand from that thread you haven't tried to install the sources with TeeRecompile tool included with the SouceCode version. This utility is thought to help SourceCode customers to recompile and install TeeChart SourceCode to the supported IDEs.

Hello Yeeray, thanks for the followup.

I did eventually also perform a Source Code recompile, selecting only Delphi 6 for the Build (BEGIN)

This is the Library path in Delphi 6:

However, the Steema version 12 library path was defined in the Project Options Search path, which must have overwritten the Library Path. I have removed from Library Path and the chart is OK (well almost)

Thank you for the support.

What's the next step to get a working version that is a current release?

Regards

Trevor

Hi Trevor,
Track1 wrote:This is the Library path in Delphi 6:
The screenshot shows the library list for your Delphi 6, at "Tools\Environment Options...\Library\Library path". Note more references could also be defined in the project search path, at "Project\Options...\Directories/Conditionals\Search path". You could clear this list since the references are already in the library list.
The library list in your screenshot look correct for using TeeChart v2011. Anyway, I'd suggest you to move the TeeChart references to the top of the list to be sure the TeeChart files are used if there is any coincidence with files from other references in the list.

This is what I get with TeeChart v2011.03 and Delphi 6 with the application you attached some posts above:

The screenshot looks as taken from another application, right?
Note this problem could be very related to the dataset used. If you found the problem isn't reproducible with a dataset but with another, please try to arrange a simple example project again, so we can check it there too.

We've identified when and where the bug was introduced, but we still have to find a way to resolve it without breaking anything.
In the meanwhile, I'd suggest you to stay with v2011.03 if it looks acceptable for you.

Many thanks for all of your support.

I'll look forward to a fix in future release, and will stay with 2011.03 for the moment.

regards

Trevor
