overlaying colorgrid series

Is it possible to set the transparency of an entire colorgrid series so that I can overlay 2 grids?

I need to retain the ability to zoom.

At present, I'm simulating this effect by using transparent polygons for the overlaying grid, but my new project doesn't allow this approach.

Hi Bob,

Yes, you can try setting transparent's grid color to clNone.

Sorry, I may have been unclear.

It is not the grid of the overlaying series that is the problem but the series itself.

I need to plot two colorgrid series on the same chart. The 'top' colorgrid series needs to be transparent so that the underlying colorgrid series can be seen.

Hi Bob,

in that case you can make the series on top transparent using :
Series2.UsePalette := false;
Series2.Color := clnone;

Thanks for the reply but that does not seem to work. Only the colorgrid 'on top' is visible.

As a futher clarification, I need the 'top' colorgrid to be semi-transparent so both can be seen simultaneously.

Hi,

in that case, this feature is not yet available, however I've added it on our wish list to be considered for the next releases.
