What property do I have to change to make the black background color white or transparent? (the rounded edges look funny with black)

Hi realize,

You can try using:

Code: Select all

    TChart1.Panel.Color = vbWhite

This is a .NET web project, so the code I used is:

Code: Select all

Tchart1.panel.Color = ColorTranslator.FromHtml("white")
The result is that the foreground color has changed, but not the background:

Hi realize,

Are you using TeeChart Pro ActiveX or TeeChart for .NET for this project?

Teechart for .NET 2 (TeeChartNET2.exe)

Ooops! :oops: Wrong forum :)

Thanx!

Hi realize,

Don't worry, done! :wink:

You can see an example doing what you request at our ASP.NET on-line demo. The example can be found at List of Features\Interacting with Charts\Mouseover Hints\Modify Standard Mark Text. This demo source code is visible under the View C# Code link.

You also have a local copy of the demo at C:\Program Files\Steema Software\TeeChart for .NET v2\TeeChartForNET (default english installation path).

Hi realize,

Look at the Chart Border section:

Code: Select all

         // Chart Border
         WebChart1.BackColor = Color.White;
         ch1.Panel.ImageBevel.Visible = false;
         ch1.Panel.ImageBevel.Pen.Visible = false;
         ch1.Panel.Bevel.Outer = Steema.TeeChart.Drawing.BevelStyles.None;
         ch1.Panel.Bevel.Inner = Steema.TeeChart.Drawing.BevelStyles.None;
         ch1.Panel.BorderRound = 50;
         ch1.Panel.Pen.Visible = false;
         ch1.Panel.Shadow.Visible = false;

BackColor

Hello again, and thanks a lot for your swift replies.

I had already set most of these options, and just set the ones I hadn't, but I can't seem to be able to find the backcolor property (or bgcolor for the matter) directly on the chart object.
And let me guess, it's the one that sets the color behind the panel :)

EDIT : Nevermind, just found it, it's a web form that I was talking about, and the property was to be set in the aspx file, and not in it's codebehind

Thanks a lot once again
