TWorldSeries not available anymore

Seems that TWorldSeries is not available in the BPL's component library anymore?
We've just updated to C++ Builder XE7 with the 2014.12.140923 32bit vcl and a form that utilises a TWorldSeries will not load.
Seems that the code for TWorldChart and libs are present, just can't use it in the Gui.
Seem to be able to build it aslong as we don't open that form for editing. hence we can't change anything in the code easily without reverting the dfm file everytime..

Also tried dynamically creating it and attaching it into the chart and it barfs with a TypeCast error somewhere down in the redraw in a GetSeries call..

Any thoughts..

Hello richo25,

I'm just testing the XE7 installer for the new maintenance release, due out very soon, and I could create a chart with a TWorldSeries with the environment you mention. Does the old project give any error message? If you attach an example project I can test it here.

Thanks in advance.

I might be a bit late to the party, but I have the exact same problem: I'm on XE7 and 2014.12 Pro and there is absolutely no trace of any kind of world map series. I faintly remember seeing them in previous versions.

TeeChart Pro v2014.12.140923 32Bit VCL
RAD Studio XE7 Enterprise Update 1 (21.0.17707.5020)

Where would I find a TWorldSeries? What should my "Add series" dialog look like?

Hello,

Using the alternate gallery in TeeChart v2015.15 for XE7 I find the World series under the "Maps" section:

I fear we have no plans of updating all our projects to a newer TeeChart version and will stick with 2014.12 for now. Do you have a machine running with 2014.12? I'd at least like to have this confirmed. I didn't find anything in the changelogs or the bugtracker

Best regards.

Hello Jens,

I'm afraid the "Maps" section can be accessed in the gallery from v2015.14.
However, you can still add the TWorldSeries at runtime in v2014.12:

Code: Select all

uses TeeWorldSeries;

var Series1: TWorldSeries;

procedure TForm1.FormCreate(Sender: TObject);
begin
  Series1:=Chart1.AddSeries(TWorldSeries) as TWorldSeries;
  Series1.FillSampleValues();
end;
