Teechart Barchart Coloring issue

I am using Teechart Active X control. I have created a Bar chart and provided added some values, I also Added a tee commander and made it link with my chart. Now when I change the Series color in the Editing the same is not reflected in my Chart. But if I do fillSample value it works fine.

Thanks Akshay

Solution

  • I guess you are populating your series using an Add function that takes a Color argument.

    Note that, if you assign a Color to the series points, this Color assigned to the points prevals to the series' Color property. That's why changing the series Color doesn't have any visual effect.

    Calling FillSampleValues function, the list of colors is cleared; that's why the series Color seems to work then.

    If you already added the points assigning a Color to each one, you could clear the list of colors looping into the array, assigning clTeeColor to all them:

      For i = 0 To TChart1.Series(0).Count - 1
    TChart1.Series(0).PointColor(i) = clTeeColor
  Next i

    If you can't use the clTeeColor constant, use its value directly:

    clTeeColor = 536870912
