Chart Legend lines and X-axis StartFromZero

John · Post by **John** » Thu Nov 03, 2011 4:16 am

Hallo Support,

I'm currently making the move to the latest version of Stimulsoft .net and have found a couple of differences when displaying charts compared to the version I have been using up to now. I'm not sure what I need to change to get them to display as before.
In the screenshot, I have made a comparison of the output of the two versions.

(1) - The lines in the legend have become very thin, so much so that it is not possible to tell which line in the chart they represent. I have tried all different parameters I can think of but cannot get the lines to appear thicker. In the chart itself they should remain with the current thickness.

(2) - There is a strange issue with displaying all the data for the x-axis: in this example, the x-axis reprensent years. When I run my test program with the new Stimulsoft version, having made no other changes, the year 2000 is not displayed in the chart. I must first set axisX.StartFromZero = true to get the year 2000 to be displayed. However, I now have empty space both at the start and at the end of the chart as you can see in the screeshot. How can I avoid this?

By the way, although I've had quite a lot of points to discuss recently, I'm very happy with your product and enjoy using it.

Best regards,

John Kitching

Hallo Andrew,

as I am producing a lot of charts in my current project and the users need to be able to distinguish between the chart lines, it means that I cannot go live with the new Stimulsoft version until this issue is fixed. However, I'd like to do this as soon as possible as the new version fixes some of the other issues we have had. Do you have any idea (days / weeks) when a new version will be available?

Best regards,

John K.
