Attached are two charts. When the user clicks on a month in the BarChart (January in this case), it displays that months expense categories below in a PieChart. Is there any way to color or keep the clicked bar highlighted (like when hovering over it)? This way the user always see which month is being displayed in the PieChart below.

Thanks.

Hello realsol,

I think you can active the Hover propierty. The code below shows you how?

Code: Select all

Chart1.Hover.Visible := Hover;

Hoping this helps you.
Thanks in advance

This gave me an error on 'Hover', so I tried this in the OnSeriesClick Event:

Code: Select all

Chart1.Hover.Visible := true;

But it still doesn't keep the bar in hover state. I know which bar they click, I just need to somehow highlight it after a user clicks it.

Hello realsol,

I have made a simple code with help of MouseDown and MouseUp events, I can select a concrete bar value when I do click in it. The code I have used is below:

Code: Select all

procedure TForm2.Chart1MouseDown(Sender: TObject; Button: TMouseButton;
  Shift: TShiftState; X, Y: Integer);
  begin
  if avalueIndex<>-1 then
    Chart1[0].ValueColor[avalueIndex] :=aColor;
end;


procedure TForm2.Chart1MouseUp(Sender: TObject; Button: TMouseButton;
  Shift: TShiftState; X, Y: Integer);
var valueIndex:Integer;
begin
valueIndex:=Chart1[0].Clicked(X, Y);
   if valueIndex>-1 then
   begin
      Chart1[0].ValueColor[valueIndex] := clRed;
      avalueIndex :=  valueIndex;
    end;
end;

procedure TForm2.FormCreate(Sender: TObject);
begin
  Chart1.View3D:=false;
 Chart1.AddSeries(TBarSeries).FillSampleValues();
 aColor := Chart1[0].Color;
 avalueIndex:=-1;

end;

Could you confirm us if it works in your end?

Thanks in advance
