When I chart some data points, all the data points are positive numbers 10,200,2000,4000 However, when the chart displays, it is like this: 5000 4000 3000 2000 1000 0 -100 Now, all of my points are positive numbers so the bottom number should be zero (0) --- is there something I'm missing or how can I tell the chart that the base should be zero - or why is it showing a negative number in the scale for no reason? Thank you. ------------- Product: Active-X Chart Control 16, Active-X Calendar & Chart Controls Platform: Windows 7 32-bit Language: Clarion 8.0 |

Hi, If you only add positive values, scale should be zero unless you assigned Diagram.AxisX.Range.MinValue = negative number
or
Diagram.AxisY.Range.MinValue= negative number
If not please show what you did...

Hi, I actually did not set anything in the Diagram object (did not even touch it) All I did was add data series ... and it is doing this. I added a series and then used these: ChartPro_Result = ChartPro4.SetSeriesProperty('!' &DU:XAXIS, 'ArgumentScaleType', xtpChartScaleQualitative) ChartPro_Result = ChartPro4.SetSeriesProperty('!' &DU:XAXIS, 'ValueScaleType ', xtpChartScaleNumerical) and then I put my data in there And boom, I see numbers in the axis less than zero, and all points are greater than zero. ------------- Product: Active-X Chart Control 16, Active-X Calendar & Chart Controls Platform: Windows 7 32-bit Language: Clarion 8.0 |

Hi, yes, if you don't like how AutoRange worked for you, you can set Range manually with AxisY.Range property. ------------- Oleg, Support Team CODEJOCK SOFTWARE SOLUTIONS |

Hi Oleg,
Should it show negative values? I can't reproduce it in any way. I tried:

That's not what he said... He assigned positive values and axes show negative values. I tried to reproduce that and I didn't succeed. That's why I asked you, what do I have to set, to get negative scale WITHOUT assigning negative values. note: @RobertInTpa didn't alter Diagram object !!!
Thanks

I don't use VB nor do I have it installed. I am using Clarion 7.3 All I am doing is assigning values ... so I need to figure out what is going on. It is clearly showing the negative values. Do you have a debug option that will write to a text file as each control is set so you can see exactly what I have done? I'm just feeding it values. ------------- Product: Active-X Chart Control 16, Active-X Calendar & Chart Controls Platform: Windows 7 32-bit Language: Clarion 8.0 |

Hi, I created (very) basic test project:
 The code in the images could be translated into your own language and should produce same output.

Seems when I remove the 0.00 values, then it works properly. When I add ONE person with a zero (0.00) value - then the negative axis appears. Seems like it is having an issue with zero's being added as data. that's when the issue happens. ------------- Product: Active-X Chart Control 16, Active-X Calendar & Chart Controls Platform: Windows 7 32-bit Language: Clarion 8.0 |

Yup! Just tested it. select 'test',0 union all select 'test2',5 That shows negative values If I change to: select 'test',5 union all select 'test2',10 Then, it works fine. So -- seems a bug when zero is one of the values, it gets confused. ------------- Product: Active-X Chart Control 16, Active-X Calendar & Chart Controls Platform: Windows 7 32-bit Language: Clarion 8.0 |

Hi, An image doesn't say much... Show me how you created above chart. I don't have clarion but you can paste your code (the one that doesn't work properly) inhere and maybe I can see why...

Try changing your values add("1",0) add("2",111) See if it happens ------------- Product: Active-X Chart Control 16, Active-X Calendar & Chart Controls Platform: Windows 7 32-bit Language: Clarion 8.0 |

Hi, Yes, you are right !!! Y-axes show negative value when assigning zero to Point. Glad "we" solved this one... Now it's up to Oleg edit: The larger one of the other value gets, the larger the scale gets (negative)
Thanks

That is what I was saying. So ... how do we go about fixing it? How long does this take to be resolved normally? ------------- Product: Active-X Chart Control 16, Active-X Calendar & Chart Controls Platform: Windows 7 32-bit Language: Clarion 8.0 |

Hi, Let's hope in this release, I'm not sure but they are preparing new release this week so it will be surely after next release
 If you desperately need this you could set:
Dim myDiagram As ChartDiagram2D
Set myDiagram = Me.wndChartControl.Content.Diagrams(0) 'Set diagram to current diagram myDiagram.AxisY.Range.MinValue = 0 'Set minimum value for Y axes This way it shows only positive scale.

Hi, Just to say I have noticed an issue when performing a Print or Print Preview. I set the Diagram.AxisY.Range.MinValue = "0.0000001" as a workaround, however on Print or Print Preview the negative values seem to appear once again! ------------- Product: Xtreme SuitePro (ActiveX) v15.3.1 Platform: Windows 7 64-bit (SP1) Professional Edition Languages: C#.Net using Visual Studio 2012 & Visual Basic 6.0 (SP6) |
