No control over Y axis labels for TCustomSeries?

[Jeff S]

Our code is relatively simple, we instantiate an instance of one of
the chart types
e.g.
TPointSeries* S = new TPointSeries(mChart);
where Chart::TChart* mChart;
do a minimal bit of setting parameters and then call AddXY() to
load the series
e.g.
S->AddXY(XValue, YValue, caption.c_str(), clTeeColor);
and finally show the graph
e.g.
S->ParentChart = mChart;

Another post recommends using either OnGetAxisLabel but this will not work when my Axis Labels are Values?
The other suggestion was to model after the 6.01 custom labels feature using: TChartAxis *axis = Chart1->Axes->Left;
but I do not see how to coerce S or mChart (in sample code above) to have Axes as a member.

Hi Jeff,

Yes, it should work in the same manner. You can change the axis labels although they are Values.

The other suggestion was to model after the 6.01 custom labels feature using: TChartAxis *axis = Chart1->Axes->Left;
but I do not see how to coerce S or mChart (in sample code above) to have Axes as a member.

I'm able to have it using the following code :

Code: Select all

#include <vcl.h>
#pragma hdrstop

#include "Unit1.h"
#include <Chart.hpp>
#include <Series.hpp>
#include <TeEngine.hpp>
#include <TeeProcs.hpp>
#include <TeeTools.hpp>
#include <TeeFunci.hpp>


//---------------------------------------------------------------------------
#pragma package(smart_init)
#pragma resource "*.dfm"
TForm1 *Form1;
//---------------------------------------------------------------------------
__fastcall TForm1::TForm1(TComponent* Owner)
        : TForm(Owner)
{
}
//---------------------------------------------------------------------------

void __fastcall TForm1::FormCreate(TObject *Sender)
{
  TChart *chart = new TChart(this);
  chart->Parent = this;
  chart->Align = alClient;

  TLineSeries *ser = new TLineSeries(chart);
  ser->ParentChart = chart;
  ser->FillSampleValues(10);

  TCursorTool *MyCursor= new  TCursorTool(chart);
  MyCursor->ParentChart=chart;
  MyCursor->FollowMouse= True;


  TLineSeries *tmpLineSeries = new TLineSeries(chart);
  TAverageTeeFunction  *func = new TAverageTeeFunction(chart);
  tmpLineSeries->SetFunction(func);

  chart->Axes->Bottom->SetMinMax(0,3);
}
