Hello,

AT design-time, when I double-click on a TChart I see an Edit Chart GUI where I can set a myriad of chart/series properties.
Is there any documentation mapping the GUI elements with object properties? I need to be able to set many properties at run-time and as a novice TeeChart user, I am really struggling to work out what object property is equivalent to a particular GUI element.

Example 1: See LegendBorder.png attachment.
On the GUI, I change Chart -> Legend -> Format -> Border -> Frame -> Visible to remove the border around the legend.
What property do I change at runtime to achieve this?

Example 2: See PointSeriesBorder.png attachment.
On the GUI, I change Series -> Format -> Border -> Visible to remove the border around the points.
What property do I change at runtime to achieve this?

I request that you implement hints in the Edit Chart GUI that give the property associated with a GUI element when the mouse hovers over a GUI element. Or (non-standard behavior) synchronize the object inspector with the GUI so that a change in GUI positions to the object inspector property that has has changed.

Thanks in advance,
Mark

Hello Markus,

I have added below the lines code you need use to achieve as you want in runtime:

Example 1: See LegendBorder.png attachment.
On the GUI, I change Chart -> Legend -> Format -> Border -> Frame -> Visible to remove the border around the legend.
What property do I change at runtime to achieve this?

Example 2: See PointSeriesBorder.png attachment.
On the GUI, I change Series -> Format -> Border -> Visible to remove the border around the points.
What property do I change at runtime to achieve this?

Hoping this helps you.
Thanks in advance

Thanks Sandra!
Your solution to remove the border around the points works well.
To remove the border around the legend, I eventually discovered this code: Although different from your code, it seems to work as desired.
