TColorLineTool on TeeChart

rbuser

Howzit,
Using TeeChart v5.02 with RB Enterprise v6.03.
I am working in runtime through the report designer and add a "Color Line"
Tool to a chart. How do i then manipulate the colour and position of this
line (either through the "Edit Chart" option or through RAP). This is the
same with most of the tools:

Annotation: Just puts an empty box in the top left corder of the chart.
Axis Arrows: Does Nothing

And so on. Looking at the editor on TeeChart proper, these tools all have
additional properties than can be set when the tool is selected in the chart
editor. How do i expose this functionality so that my clients can use these
tools?

Gilbert,

ReportBuilder supports everything TeeChart allows you to accomplish using
the Edit Chart. Check to see that you are including all the TeeChart .dcu
files in your 'uses' clause to enable these features.

Nico,
Do you know what dcu(s) might be involved here, there are very many TeeChart
dcu's. Have included a few and this seems to have activated the tools
editors, but how about registrations for other stuff on the TeeChart editor
that i might be missing?
Also, I have a chart on which may points can be plotted in the same
position, is there a way to format the Mark Tips so that one can see the
labels for all points on one position, either by putting all the lables into
one tip or by spreading the tips out so that they do not overlap (either by
dragging or automatic)?
Regards,
Gilbert

Hi Gilbert,

You might check the TeeChart help for the correct files to include in your
project to see certain features. In testing, I was able to use the
Annotation feature with out any problems. Be sure to include ppChrtUI in
your 'uses' clause to allow your users access to the "Edit Chart" feature in
ReportBuilder.
