Chart 'Target Value' Series

[Ink]

Hi,

I have a chart which plots daily data over a date range.
I need to add a line to the chart which displays the 'target value'.
The would be a flat line, with a constant value (like another series where each value is the same).
Then I can see which data points are above/below target.
Is tehre a way to do this with a line chart?

Regards,

jon.

Hello, Jon.

You should use the Constant Lines Editor in your Chart.

Thank you.

Thanks Aleksey,

The constant value is actually stored in the XML that feeds the chart.
How can I set the constant line to a value in the data source?

Found the answer on the forum!

I have put this code in the bands before print event

Chart3.ConstantLines.Clear()

Dim myItem As New Stimulsoft.Report.Chart.StiConstantLines()
myItem.AxisValue = ConstantValueGrid.Constant1
myItem.LineColor = System.Drawing.Color.Black
myItem.Text = "GDA"
myItem.Font = New System.Drawing.Font("Arial", 7F)
Chart3.ConstantLines.AddRange(New Stimulsoft.Report.Chart.StiConstantLines() {myItem})

Works perfectly, Except if I change myItem.LineColor = System.Drawing.Color.Black to myItem.LineColor = System.Drawing.Color.Red the line is still displayed in balck not red. Is there something else I need to do?
