Move marks in a graph

I use a 3D line graph. I want the marks to be over the points on stead of covering them but whatever I try they stay at the same place. In an other graph, a Bar, the displacement of the marks works fine, they shift up and down with their arrowsettings. In this graph not.

In Series Marks Style the Style setting is X-Value. That shows the correct figures in the marks. In Series Marks Arrows the settings length, size, distance = 30 (just to test), arrowhead None. In Pointer the orange triangle is set to 30 for all values too. It seems that the arrows use values that are sebsequent, somehow, I see no connection with the Marks. What do I miss, here?

Hi Rob,

Could you please read this thread which explains how to customize marks position?

If this doesn't help, could you please send us a simple example project we can run "as-is" to reproduce the problem here?

You can post your files at news://www.steema.net/steema.public.attachments newsgroup or at our upload page.

Thanks in advance.

Narcis,

somehow we solved the problem by changing the graph type to Bar and back to Line. Now the marks are positioned nicely and they have a line. The orange arrows are still there but I can switch them off so they are not visible anymore. Tho problem is solved. BTW, I'm NOT able to (re)write code, all changes have to be made with the tchart editor.

PS see the next topic I'm sending in here for a detail of the graph.
