Strange issues with Bar Chart

Hello,

Today I realized that I face some issues with my Bar charts (worked ok on previous 8.06 version) on the latest 2010 version. To begin with please take a look at the attached sample application. When setting the YValues to loDescending (in my app the same happens fro loNone also) you will notice that the bars do not touch each other (not side by side) but it looks like the border is drawn. Also notice that it misses 1 value? (left chart displays 6 right chart with loDescending displays 5). I use Delphi 2007. Please let me know what is wrong and if possible guide me to change my sources so that I resolve this issue?

Regards

Hi johnnix,

This is a known problem already in the defect list to be revised in future releases (TV52014364). However you can easily work around it resorting the valuelist:

Code: Select all

Chart1[0].YValues.Sort;
Could you please confirm it?

Hello Yeray,

Thank you very much for the prompt reply but unfortunately this does not work, I tried it with YValues.Order set to both loNone or loDescenting but when zooming in I see the bars are separated.

Another major issue I have is that when I copy and paste a TChart the Panel Gradient is set to true and also the BackWall Transparency is set to true. It is quite time consuming to change these every time I need to copy one plot from a form to another.

Regards

You're right. It seems that with YValues.Order set to both loNone or loDescending the suggested workaround seems to do nothing.
I've added it to the ticket description and incremented it's priority.

I think you meant "Panel Gradient is set to true and the BackWall Transparency is set to false".
I've added it to the wish list to be enhanced in future releases (TV52015291).
