PieChart 3D alignment

[Yeray]

Hi X-ray,

I'm afraid you are right. TV52014983 and TV52015159 haven't been fixed yet.
For TV52015159 there was a workaround proposed some posts above, but for TV52014983 I'm afraid I can't think on any.

Hi,

I have to say I am a bit disappointed by this kind of "Support". When I report these kind of bugs for example to Developer Express,
then most of the time I have an useful answer within one or two days. And if it is an urgent problem I can immediately download the fixed sources.
Here waiting for some months there is one maintenance release, the bugs are not fixed and there is no mentioning of a workaround.
This makes the current version totally useless for our product.

A not so happy customer,

X-ray

Hello X-Ray,

Our apologies that these related issues have not been resolved in time for this latest maintenance release. We'll review them immediately and see if we can get a resolution to you very shortly.

Hi Marc,

Thank you very much for your kind answer; that gives me some hope!

And please don’t misunderstand me, TChart is a great product, I am using it since years and I don’t know of any other charting tool that comes close when it is about plotting quality and amount of features.

Unfortunately we are close to a release and I have to deliver a software product that simply works, but the mentioned bugs, especially TV52014983, are killing. With TV52015159 I can live, although fixing it in my code means changes all over the place. After each switch from OpenGL to GDI and back I have to apply extra code.

best regards,

X-Ray

Hi X-Ray,

Which is the exact TeeChart version you are using? Have you tried with v2010.01.11004 published last Tuesday? We have checked that TV52015159 works fine without using the workaround with this version. Can you please confirm that? As far as TV52014983 concerns, we are currently working on a solution. We will get back to you with fixed sources ASAP.

Hi Narcis,

I didn't download and test version v2010.01.11004, because both bugs (TV52015159 and TV52014983) were
not mentioned in the current Release Notes. I will immediately download/integrate this version and test it today or more probably monday.

best regards,

Thomas

Hi Thomas,

Ok, thanks for your feedback. TV52015159 is not in the release notes because probably it was indirectly fixed for other improvements in OpenGL for TeeChart.

Hi Narcis,

yes, I can definitely confirm that bug TV52015159 is solved in release v2010.01.11004!
That helps already a lot!

Thanks and best regards,

X-Ray

Hi Narcis,

do you have any news concerning TV52014983?
I would be glad to betatest even an experimental first fix.

best regards,

Hi X-Ray,

Yes, I think we have a first fix proposal. It may not be 100% complete but I'll send you current OpenGL canvas unit. Please let us know how it goes at your end.

Thanks in advance.

as in the Delphi UI):

Hi X-Ray,

Ok, you need updated TeCanvas.pas too then. I just emailed it to you.

Hello,

You'll need TeEngine.pas as well. Just sent it.

Please let me know if any other error occurs.
