Line series divided into sections by vertical line markers

[skruegel]

I have a requirement for a line series divided into sections by vertical lines. Optimally, I could choose the spacing and number of the vertical lines. It would also be helpful if those line sections had a different appearance, and an annotation.

Hi skruegel,

Have you seen the demos "All Features\Welcome !\Tools\Color Line" and "All Features\Welcome !\Tools\Annotation" from New features program included with the TeeChart installation?
Here is a starting example:

Code: Select all

        public Form1()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
            InitializeChart();
        }

        private void InitializeChart()
        {
            chartController1.Chart = tChart1;                        

            tChart1.Aspect.View3D = false;
            tChart1.Legend.Visible = false;

            Steema.TeeChart.Styles.FastLine fastline1 = new Steema.TeeChart.Styles.FastLine(tChart1.Chart);
            fastline1.FillSampleValues(200);

            tChart1.Draw();

            int nColorLines = 5;
            Steema.TeeChart.Tools.ColorLine tmpColorLine;
            Steema.TeeChart.Tools.Annotation tmpAnnotation;
            Random rnd = new Random();
            for (int i = 0; i < nColorLines; i++)
            {
                tmpColorLine = new Steema.TeeChart.Tools.ColorLine(tChart1.Chart);
                tmpColorLine.Axis = tChart1.Axes.Bottom;
                tmpColorLine.Pen.Color = Color.FromArgb(rnd.Next(255), rnd.Next(255), rnd.Next(255));
                tmpColorLine.Value = (tmpColorLine.Axis.Maximum - tmpColorLine.Axis.Minimum) * (i+1) / (nColorLines+1);

                tmpAnnotation = new Steema.TeeChart.Tools.Annotation(tChart1.Chart);
                tmpAnnotation.Left = tChart1.Axes.Bottom.CalcPosValue(tmpColorLine.Value) + 5;
                tmpAnnotation.Top = tChart1.Axes.Left.CalcPosValue(tChart1.Axes.Left.Maximum) + 10;
                tmpAnnotation.Text = "ColorLine n" + (i+1).ToString();
                tmpAnnotation.Shape.Color = tmpColorLine.Pen.Color;
            }
        }
