[QUESTION] Chart NoItemsText

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

Hi,

I have had a look but can't find any functionality that's like the ReportControl.PaintManager.NoItemsText. 

Is there something like this available within the ChartControl already?

If not then is it possible to add it? Like the ReportControl it would be good to display a reason as to why there is no chart data being displayed if no data is found. I would prefer that than showing a Chart with lots of zeros.

At the moment I check to see if the ReportControl I am getting data from has records greater than zero

        If rpcGrid(1).Records.Count > 0 Then
            Set .Content.Series(1).style = New ChartLineSeriesStyle
                .Content.Series(1).style.Color = &H4080FF
                .Content.Series(1).style.Label.Format.Category = xtpChartNumber
                .Content.Series(1).style.Label.Format.UseThousandSeparator = True
                .Content.Series(1).style.Label.Format.DecimalPlaces = 2
        End If

As the Set .Content.Series(1).style = New ChartLineSeriesStyle is inside the check the Chart never gets populated with zeros (the way I want it), therefore a NoItemsText would be a nice have.

Thanks.
