Hello,

After upgrading from the Lite to the Pro version (2009VSNET2008_4.0.2009.62332) I ran into problems with the Visual Studio 2008 and TeeChart.

Once I drop a TeeChart object from the toolbox to a fresh form a pop-up (see attachment) starts jumping into the screen. It seems to me that the drag and drop doesn't add the object correctly as far as the Visual Studio is concerned (see attachment). Also attached a sample project so you can have a look.

I'm surprised since I didn't experience any problems with the Lite version. Next, I'm gonna try a different built.

EDIT: Get the same outcome with version 4.0.2009.42283.

EDIT2: It looks that the missing value in .resx file is not related (could reproduce the error with simpler project that didn't have any entries there)

Regards

Hi Juha,

I guess your problem is the same as disscussed here.

Hope this helps!

Hi Narcis,

Correct if I'm wrong but problems in the thread you linked are due to resource file differences between the different TeeChart versions? So while changing version one must sort out the possible differences in those files.

The problem I'm having exists even in projects created from scratch and so also the resource files should be created right. Or am I missing the point?

Hi Juha,

We are not able to reproduce this here with new projects using TeeChart for .NET 2009. The problem may be that your environment is still referencing an old TeeChart assembly. You could check TeeChart's AssemblyFolders entry in your machine. You can remove it as described here.

Hi Narcis,

Yes, you're right the environment is still referencing an old TeeChart assembly.

Tried removing the register keys pointed out in the link you gave (in fact all the keys pointing to TeeChart) and reinstalled. It didn't solve the problem and the VS still complains as before (refers to old TeeChart). Apparently, the old version is still marked somewhere, maybe in some VC cache directory. I'll have to continue the hunt tomorrow.

Thanks for the hints.

Cheers,
Juha

Hi Juha,

You're very welcome.

In that case the problem might be that your project is still referencing old assemblies in its References section or that the components in the toolbox belong to the old versions. You should check that both references also point to the new version.

Hi Narcis,

I checked the reference section and the toolbar before writing anything here. They've been always correct.

Hi Narcis,

Couldn't figer out how to fix the version issue. Anyway, I've stopped chasing the ghost for know.

My workaround is to set up the tChart object and it's series in the code and not to use the graphical interface. Not ideal situation but I can live with that...

Hi Juha,

In that case you should also check that old assembly is not registered in the GAC.
