Vertical and horizontal lines with text

Post by dirkil » Tue Jul 03, 2012 6:31 am

To help people understand charts, authors often add vertical and/or horizontal lines and explaining text. The attached pictures shows such an example:
  • vertical lines ("winter", "spring", "summer", "fall")
  • horizontal line ("Freezing")
Can you please tell me, if and how this is possible with TChart?

Hi Dirk,

You can use TColorLineTool(s) to draw the lines and TAnnotationTool(s) to draw the texts.
I'd suggest you to take a look at the features demo program, you'll find example of both tools in it.
