MarksTip not working in .NET chart

betulus · Post by **betulus** » Wed May 18, 2005 12:44 pm

Hi,

Should MarksTips work in .NET? I see from a previous post that there was problems with a past version, is that still the case?

I am using version TeeChart version 1.1.1879.21176 by the way.

If they don't work, is there any other way of adding toolTips to display the name of particular series?

Thanks
Matt

PS this is the code I am using

// class level variable
protected MarksTip TipsPropNames;
protected WebChart chart = WebChart1.Chart;

protected override void OnPreRender(System.EventArgs e)
{
TipsPropNames = new MarksTip(chart);
TipsPropNames.Active = true;
TipsPropNames.MouseDelay = 500; // i guess this couldn't work in IE etc!
TipsPropNames.MouseAction = MarksTipMouseAction.Move;
TipsPropNames.Style = MarksStyles.Label;
}

Hi betulus,

Please notice that MarkTipsTool is not available using WebForms. However you could have a look at the WebForms examples at the ASP Server Examples available at the TeeChart program group and implement it using the OnClick event as shown.

Also notice that many more features are being implemented for WebForms (i.e: HotSpots) in TeeChart for .NET v2 which will be released shortly.

Hi Matt,

It is expected to be released before the end of the current month.

Thanks Narcis,

Sorry one last question. We are about to start a new project using TeeChart. Will we have to do many code changes if we start the project now, and then migrate to v2 in a few weeks?

Hi Matt,

I'd say no, just changing your project TeeChart references. However you can start using TeeChart for .NET v2 BETA which can be downloaded from our customer download area.

I suppose this week is not quite over yet! Any news as to Version 2? I am holding back on a release of my application in eager anticipation of Version 2. Would you recommend waiting for it or using the Version 2 beta? I.E. is there much difference do you know?

Thanks
Betulus

Hi betulus,

It is almost ready, we are just finishing some details as posting the installers and adapting the website for the new version so the release is imminent, it will be today.

To release your application I should wait for v2 to be released (it is going to be in the upcoming hours) or use v1. Final release will incorporate several improvements since v2 BETA, specially in the WebForms field.
