Hi
I am using the latest version of TeeChart Pro 2013 VCL on Delphi.

Is it possible to achieve this kind of layout as swimlanes?
If possible, only one or multi teechart can achieve this effect?

Many thanks in advance

Hi Richfit,

I'd suggest you to take a look at the features demo examples. They will show you how to use the majority of features you'd need to achieve a similar chart as the one in your picture.

- I'd use THorizLineSeries as the series type. It has a Pointer property you could set Visible:=true. It also has the LinePen property, which can be used to make the pen wider (LinePen.Width:=3) or dashed (LinePen.Style:=psDash)
Ref: Features Demo example at "All features\Welcome !\Chart styles\Standard\Horiz. Line"

- I'd use the TSeriesBandTool to highlight the area between two series.

- Depending on the exact needs I'd use CustomAxes, SubCharts or just ColorLines to divide the chart.

- You also have several options for the square on the top. You can use a CustomLegendTool, Annotations or custom drawing techniques.
