Hi,

1. http://forum.codejock.com/smileys/smiley20.gif">  Label doesn't show (ones with very small values) anymore if one of the bars (StackedBars) has a very large value. If Rotated (Horizontal) it works OK (even small values will show labels) Example bar1 = 1 and bar2 > 100000 [Fixed in V15.0]
2. [QUESTION][SOLVED] Why can't I use an array value for the argument when adding Points. See following code (note: without CStr it shows only "zero's"
   • With .Series
         .DeleteAll
         .Add ("Aangeboden kaarten")
         With .Item(0).Points
             For i = 1 To UBound(myArray)
                  .Add CStr(myArray(i, 1)), myArray(i, 2)
             Next i
         End With
     End With
3. [BUG] When using for example Pyramids small values don't show either (something they show and sometimes not) The "gap" between the layers is almost nothing (I would expect assigning .PointDistance = 20 would make a difference but it doesn't) If the legend shows some value I would at least expect to see a line (1 pixel) for it.
4. [PROBLEM] The labels are drawn onto each other with small values. Maybe positioning labels ourselves? Or some property that labels would be positioned with certain value from center? See image 1.
5. [BUG] Pie2D, Pie3D, Torus3D Charts drawn incorrect when having a small value (1 pixel???) See Image 2.  
6. [BUG] Pyramid3D drawn incorrect when rotated with mouse. See Image 3. [UPDATE] Also Image 3a
7. [QUESTION][SOLVED] Is it possible to create scrollable chart with bars.

9. [BUG] Since scrollable chart is possible, I found that, once you scroll to "next page" and setting different value for ViewMaxValue, view isn't updated like should. See test project (I will use this for every other issue I find) 
10. [BUG][SOLVED] Scrollbar doesn't disappear (once scrolled to top, bars are horizontal) after setting different value for ViewMaxValue. If scrollbar is set to the bottom and ViewMaxValue is set to number of bars that could fit into the view, scrollbar disappears (this is how it should work)
11. [QUESTION][Not implemented] How to get color of one particular point when ColorEach = True. Seems .Color is returning always zero...
12. [QUESTION][Answer=NOT possible] ColorEach property is using palette colors, right? How can I find out how many colors one "palette color" has? (prefer in code and not by checking each color manually )

15. http://forum.codejock.com/smileys/smiley20.gif">  How to set scale above the maximum / below minimum value of a chart (WITHOUT adding a negative point value) ? For example a bubble series, the maximum bubble value is partially outside the view. I would like to see entire bubble. Same with small values the bubble shows only partially and the label doesn't show...  
16. http://forum.codejock.com/smileys/smiley20.gif">  Following code throws error: Object variable not set ..... [Fixed in V15.0]
    • Dim BubbleSeriesStyle As New ChartBubbleSeriesStyle

          End With
17. [QUESTION][Answer=NO] Is it possible to position the label with Bubble series to other position besides to center of bubble? 
18. [QUESTION][Oleg said: Adding support of proportional bubbles] When assigning values to BubbleSeries, the width (in my case) is set same as the value itself. Is this the right way or do I have to calculate the width itself to get proportional bubbles? I'm asking this because the smallest bubble isn't in proportion with the other ones. See Image 4.
19. [QUESTION] When Diagram is rotated, the scrollbar is still showing while contents fits easely in Chart. Changing .ViewMaxValue doesn't do anything unless the scrollbar is positioned to the left (or bottom when rotated) I have a strong feeling this has something to do with Issue#9. Please, look at the testproject again.
20. [BUG] xtpChartPyramidLabelCenter doesn't work for 3D Pyramid, labels don't show.
21. [QUESTION] Selecting appearance "Black" the label borders don't show anymore. Correct???
22. [BUG] Pie3D, Doughnut3D and Torus not rendered correctly when having all points set to special. Left and right side is a part missing. See Image 5.
23. [QUESTION] I need to display percentage for each slice of a Pie. Do I have to calculate value myself? If so, could we have a property that contains calculated percentage value? You already calculated percentage to draw Pie slices so exposing this value is easy. Maybe .Format = "{P}" is an option...
24. [QUESTION] Is there a way to create something like this? I tried but the only thing I get is a ONE row with pies and the more pies I add, the pies getting smaller and smaller.
    • 
25. [BUG] Torus (when rotated with mouse) is showing a "hole" see Image 6. & 7. (Update: same with Pie3D and Doughnut3D) Under certain conditions the bug occurs. I have an option to show/hide legend AND to show/hide labels. Setting one of these options to true/false you get to see this behaviour. You also see that the pie gets resized again after the legend is set to false maybe this is problem... Another update: Seems only exploded points are having this problem. You can reproduce this with your own ChartBrowser sample: just set Labels visible to false and rotate Pie3D, Doughnut3D and Torus with mouse. 
26. [SOLVED (mysteriously)] Updating Diagram2D after creation of certain style doesn't do anything if I don't use DoEvents before calling the RefreshDiagram function. If I use DoEvents before updating diagram it shows all items but I see a flickering (because I want to set different min&max Range values) I don't know what to do anymore. Maybe I'm using it the wrong way so any advice on this would appreciated. Test project: http://forum.codejock.com/uploads/3701/Charting_Tool.zip - uploads/3701/Charting_Tool.zip Update: If you would set breakpoint on ShowChart and resize window so you are able to see application and IDE and proceed with F8 (until both functions have been carried out), you get to see every point added in application and Chart is rendered correctly.
27. [BUG] When resizing Chartcontrol with Pyramid style at some point it will be rendered the opposite way looking like a funnel  (first it will be invisible but resizing it just a little smaller it shows above behaviour)
28. [BUG] Legend is drawn over the border of the chartcontrol when resized smaller. Well almost everything is drawn over border...
29. [QUESTION] Why is PointDistance for Pyramid2D and Pyramid3D rendered differently? With Pyramid2D the space between two parts is smaller.
30. [BUG] Tooltip for bubble doesn't show because the label is centered over (small) bubble. If label isn't visible the tooltip does show.
31. [QUESTION] Tooltip doesn't show with Pie3D,Doughnut3D, Pyramid3D and Torus, correct???
32. [REMARK] ChartControl.ToolTipContext is problem. I tried with following, maybe it's always like that... Just noticed it trying to set a tooltip for a Pie slice. note: There are a lot of items added into the tooltiptext with vbNewLine 
    • xtpToolTipStandard 'Blinking tooltip window
    • xtpToolTipBalloon 'Blinking top -> middle -> bottom  tooltip window

34. [PROBLEM] I have a problem I cannot reproduce with ChartBrowser sample. In my own application I have ChartControl, Commandbars, DockingPane, SkinFrameWork and PropertyGrid control. So I thought this might be problem with CommandBars (because I use ResizeClient event to resize ChartControl) So adding Commandbars to ChartBrowser Sample and adding same resizing event from my own app didn't change anything. So I added all controls I have in my own app (except PropertyGrid) to ChartBrowser but still working as expected. So I'm stuck with problem. The only thing I can do is preventing pane to resize smaller than certain width/height...  Here is problem: When resizing ChartControl (chartStyle: Bar, Bubbles, Spline etc etc, I guess all Diagram2D charts) and content is about to disappear because it's too small, processor is very busy and resizing gets very slow. It only happens when width of Value axes is zero. If someone encountered this problem as well, please reply in here.

Anyone?

            Diagram.AxisY.Range.ViewAutoRange = False

            Diagram.AxisY.Range.MaxValue = 1000
            Diagram.AxisY.Range.MinValue = -1000
            Diagram.AxisY.Range.ViewMaxValue = 250
            Diagram.AxisY.Range.ViewMinValue = -250

Yes.  I don't think it is possible to check in code the number of colors. 13. Use chart builder.  There is palette tab on left.  There you can edit\add to the palettes. 15. You can adjust the range of the axis and\or play with zoom. 16. Don't see error on my end, but it makes no difference for a bubble label.  It don't have lines.  Maybe we will add for future. 17. Currently no.

Sometimes you need quick answers because the pile of "problems" keeps getting bigger and bigger and you are not able to figure them out anymore... And you need some assistance  

• 11. Me.ChartControl.Content.Series(0).Points(0).Color is always returning zero (with .ColorEach True or False) I would expect to get the color that was assigned to it with setting .ColorEach = True (in your code)
• 12. Only option is to create own palette and load XML file. I think I need some help with this :)
• 13. How can I create a complete palette like you did already. Or do I have to create single XML files?
• 15. My mistake, I have a function to change styles and setting diagram to last used Series.Diagram seemed to be problem.
• 16. It really throws error, just add BubbleSeriesStyle.Label.ShowLines = True in your own ChartBrowser sample
   
  

Thanks a lot

Hi Oleg,

All issues are important...

All you need to do is answer questions one by one, just begin with first unanswered issue and if it's solved, fixed, answered or whatever goto next issue, it isn't difficult, really  The only thing you need to read is topmost reply.
