Series format "panel".

[Narcís]

Hi Tony,

I have found that line below fails using ChartEditorPanel so I have added it (TA05015736) to the defect list to be fixed ASAP.

Code: Select all

      axChartEditorPanel1.Editor.ShowPages.Aspect = false;

I also found that Animations tab can not be hidden because Editor.ShowPages.Animations doesn't exist, another bug (TA05015737)

So the best I could get for now was using a CharEditor component and this code:

Code: Select all

    public Form1()
    {
      InitializeComponent();
      InitializeChart();
    }

    private void InitializeChart()
    {
      axTChart1.AddSeries(TeeChart.ESeriesClass.scLine);
      axTChart1.Series(0).FillSampleValues();

      axTChart1.AddSeries(TeeChart.ESeriesClass.scLine);
      axTChart1.Series(1).FillSampleValues();

      axTChart1.Series(0).ShowInEditor = false;

      axChartEditorPanel1.ChartLink = axTChart1.ChartLink;
    }

    private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
      axTeeEditor1.ChartLink = axTChart1.ChartLink;

      axTeeEditor1.ShowPages.Axis = false;
      axTeeEditor1.ShowPages.Aspect = false;
      axTeeEditor1.ShowPages.ExportDialog = false;
      axTeeEditor1.ShowPages.ExportNative = false;
      axTeeEditor1.ShowPages.General = false;
      axTeeEditor1.ShowPages.Legend = false;
      axTeeEditor1.ShowPages.Main = false;
      axTeeEditor1.ShowPages.OpenGL = false;
      axTeeEditor1.ShowPages.Paging = false;
      axTeeEditor1.ShowPages.Panel = false;
      axTeeEditor1.ShowPages.PrintPreview = false;
      axTeeEditor1.ShowPages.SeriesData = false;
      axTeeEditor1.ShowPages.SeriesMarks = false;
      axTeeEditor1.ShowPages.Themes = false;
      axTeeEditor1.ShowPages.Titles = false;
      axTeeEditor1.ShowPages.Tools = false;
      axTeeEditor1.ShowPages.Walls = false;

      axTeeEditor1.ShowEditor();
    }

I'll check if those issues can be easily fixed so that we can provide you with an ocx file with them fixed. I will get back to you when I have further news.

Any update on this?

Hi Tony,

Ok, after some confussion finally we cleared this up. You can already do what you requested using ShowSeriesEditor method, for example:

Code: Select all

      axTChart1.ShowSeriesEditor(0);

We are also working on fixing TA05015736 and TA05015737.

Sorry for the confusion caused.

[Narcís]

Hi Tony,

Ok, the solution to TA05015736 is using a ChartEditor between the Chart and ChartEditorPanel, for example:

Code: Select all

      axTChart1.AddSeries(TeeChart.ESeriesClass.scLine);
      axTChart1.Series(0).FillSampleValues();
      
      axTeeEditor1.ShowPages.Aspect = false;
      axChartEditorPanel1.EditorLink = axTeeEditor1.EditorLink;

      axChartEditorPanel1.ChartLink = axTChart1.ChartLink;

And finally, for TA05015737 I'm going to send you a new ocx with the fix to be able to hide the Animations tab. So now you can do this:

Code: Select all

      axTChart1.AddSeries(TeeChart.ESeriesClass.scLine);
      axTChart1.Series(0).FillSampleValues();

      axTeeEditor1.ChartLink = axTChart1.ChartLink;

      axTeeEditor1.ShowPages.Aspect = false;
      axTeeEditor1.ShowPages.Animations = false;
      //hide other necessary tabs hire

This can not be done using ChartEditorPanel, it can not be customised you can only assign an editor to it.

[TonyVSUK]

Thanks for the OCX.

But something is still not right. When I update my test code so that I've got
AxTeeEditor1.ShowPages.Animations = False

Nothing shows up in the resulting editor. If I leave the animations as shown, then the series editor appears as well.

[Narcís]

Hi Tony,

I think I could reproduce the problem using code below. Hiding Animations tab nothing is displayed in Series tab. Displaying Animations makes Series tab being correctly displayed too. I have added the bug (TA05015752) to the defect list.

Code: Select all

      axTChart1.AddSeries(TeeChart.ESeriesClass.scLine);
      axTChart1.Series(0).FillSampleValues();

      axTeeEditor1.ChartLink = axTChart1.ChartLink;

      axTeeEditor1.ShowPages.Aspect = false;
      axTeeEditor1.ShowPages.Animations = false;
      //axTeeEditor1.ShowPages.AllSeries = false;
      axTeeEditor1.ShowPages.Axis = false;
      axTeeEditor1.ShowPages.ExportDialog = false;
      axTeeEditor1.ShowPages.ExportNative = false;
      axTeeEditor1.ShowPages.General = false;
      axTeeEditor1.ShowPages.Legend = false;
      axTeeEditor1.ShowPages.Main = false;
      axTeeEditor1.ShowPages.OpenGL = false;
      axTeeEditor1.ShowPages.Paging = false;
      axTeeEditor1.ShowPages.Panel = false;
      axTeeEditor1.ShowPages.PrintPreview = false;
      axTeeEditor1.ShowPages.SeriesData = false;
      //axTeeEditor1.ShowPages.SeriesGeneral = false;
      axTeeEditor1.ShowPages.SeriesMarks = false;
      axTeeEditor1.ShowPages.Themes = false;
      axTeeEditor1.ShowPages.Titles = false;
      axTeeEditor1.ShowPages.Tools = false;
      axTeeEditor1.ShowPages.Walls = false;

      axTeeEditor1.ShowEditor();

Are you able to send another OCX (as you did before)?

[Narcís]

Hi Tony,

I'm afraid not. I have just checked this issue comes from TeeChart VCL, TeeChart ActiveX is a COM wrapper of the VCL version, so I changed the issue to a VCL one: TV52015752. Some of the previous problems were due to some constants not being defined in the ActiveX version so it was just adding them and compiling the ocx. Now the bug needs to be fixed in the VCL version and then an ocx will have to be compiled. I'll add a comment to send you a ocx when the bug is fixed.

Hi Tony,

I have also found that it's not only Animations tab, other tabs (Tools, Print Preview, Export, Data, etc.) have the same effect over Series tab.

[TonyVSUK]

Any developments on this?

The only reason I upgraded was to get this functionality.

Hello Tony,

Any developments on this?

I'm afraid TV52015752 hasn't been fixed yet. Please be aware at the following channels for new release announcements and what's implemented on them: Support forum, RSS news feed, Twitter or Facebook.

The only reason I upgraded was to get this functionality.

Did you read somewhere that this was fixed?
Contact the sales department asap if you want to revert the operation.

I want a refund. It seems to me that bugs are never fixed, I could be waiting years for any developments.

[Yeray]

Hello Tony,

viewtopic.php?f=1&t=11353#p54401

When I said "Give it a try" I was inviting you to try the evaluation version to check the evolution of the issues yourself. Obviously I wasn't clear enough; excuse me for that.

It seems to me that bugs are never fixed, I could be waiting years for any developments.

I'm sorry to hear you have this impression. I've checked the issues detected in this thread. Here it is the resume of their status:
Closed: TA05015736 (not a bug), TA05015048 (VCL: TV52015208).
Fixed: TA05015049, TA05015737.
Pending: TV52015752, TV52015208.
Feel free to correct me if I forgot something.
