I am just starting to use the Chart control. During testing for this I discovered a Fatal Windows Crash. Simply put I have a Chart control and I initially display a Pie Chart. I then give the user a PopUp menu (right click on the chart) to select from either a Bar or a Pie Chart. The user can select Bar and then change again to Pie....etc Changing from Pie to Bar is not a problem, however once the Bar chart is showing if your "right-click" directly on the chart area and select Pie you get a Windows crash. If you right-click not directly over the Bar chart area it does not crash. I have checked through the code and cannot see where I may have gone wrong. I have attached a zip of a sample project that displays the behavior. uploads/2555/CodejockCharttest.zip - uploads/2555/CodejockCharttest.zip Hoping someone (at Codejock) can help me?

Hi,
I tried with your test project and I couldn't get it to crash.
btw The only thing I noticed that the VB popup menu is drawn with background of BAR chart (selecting pie when bar is active) just for a split second...
Good luck

Aaron, Thx for trying. It happens around 95% of the time. Here is a video of it crashing just in case my instructions weren't 100% clear. http://www.fastcam.com/Trevor/Chart-Crash/Chart-Crash.html - http://www.fastcam.com/Trevor/Chart-Crash/Chart-Crash.html Trevor ------------- Xtreme SuitePro (ActiveX) version 18.3.0 Windows 7 (64bit) Visual Basic 6.0 SP6 |

Hi,
I did click on Bar about a hundred times... Outside, inside, everywhere... Not a single crash. Maybe something to do with version GDI dll
C'mon support, why don't you guys reply?

Hi Oleg,
Thanks for reply, I tried already with new version (V15.1.0) without knowing it hehehe
Seems something with V15.0.1 I tried and it crashed immediately as described by thread starter.
Thanks

| So you say you see it with 15.0.1 but not 15.1.1? I tried that sample with both 15.1.1 and 15.0.2 and couldn't see the crash. |

Thanks to all that posted. I have re-tested using v15.1.1 and it no longer crashes. Thanks CodeJock seems like you fixed it!  Trevor ------------- Xtreme SuitePro (ActiveX) version 18.3.0 Windows 7 (64bit) Visual Basic 6.0 SP6 |
