I have two series in my chart which i show in a legend, that works fine.

Then i add a colorline to the chart, of which the x-axis has a datetime scale, which represents an important date (f.e. a deadline). I would like to show the user in the legend that that colorline represents f.e. 'Deadline'. However, the colorline doesn't have the "showinlegend" property, like the series, and i can't find another way of adding this to the legend (even not with the OnGetLegendText event)

Since i didn't succeed there, i tried to give my colorline a description hoping it would show in the x-axis, but this property is readonly

Can anybody give me a hint on how i can show my users what a colorline means ?

My other option is write my own legend in HTML, but i would like to do all the charting stuff with teechart.

Thanks in advance.

Hi.

How about adding another "fake" line series to chart and use it only as display item in chart legend ? Or alternatively, use the legend formatting tChart events to add custom legend item. I'd use the first approach because the end result will be color line + series title shown in legend.

Thanks !

Adding a fake fastline (line series get messed up in the legend in a 3D chart) series to my chart works nice.
