Changing TDBChart to row-series order

Is there any way to change the series order in a TDBChart from column-order to row-order? For instance in Excel, you can choose whether you want to graph selected data in column-order (one series for each column) or row-order (one series for each selected row). Right now, live data can be bound to a TDBChart, but only if the data is presented in column-order. A row-order chart must be created in code and therefore isn't 'live' (can't reflect real-time data). A 'live' row-order chart would have one series with a data source set to 'Single record' for each record of data in the underlying data set. If there is no function to do that today, please consider adding something like a FlipSeriesOrder() function or SeriesOrderType property that would implement that ability.

Hi aecspades,

Yes, this can be done in TeeChart Pro v8 VCL using new TransposeSeriesTool.

Excellent, that's exactly what I was looking for! I should have searched the 8.x documentation (I have 7.08) - I will probably upgrade because of this feature alone. Thanks again.
