Unable to select volume series.

[LT411]

The selector tool seems to be able to select fastline series, but not volume series. When I click on the volume lines, nothing happens. I would expect the selection boxes to be drawn indicating the series was selected.

To reproduce:
1. Add a selector tool to a chart.
2. Add a fastline series.
3. Add a volume series.

Notice you can select the fastline series by clicking on it.
Try to select the volume series.

Hello,

which TeeChart for NET version are you using ?
I've tried here using the latest TeeChart for NET v3 and worked fine, I'm able to select both series type.

Hello,

Thanks for the quick response. I'm using TeeChart 3.5.3146.24806 in a Windows Forms application with Visual Studio 2008 SP1 on Vista 64.

I created a sample app and discovered it works fine when the volume series uses the left axis.

I created a custom vertical axis and positioned it in the bottom half of the chart. Then I assigned the volume series to vertical axis Custom 0.

Now, I am unable to select the volume series with the selector tool.

If you are still unable to reproduce the problem, I can send a sample app.

Thanks for the help,

It looks like two years since this particular thread was created. I am just getting in to using the selector tool. I have created a bar chart and a volume chart, basically using the example from the code samples. I created a Selector Tool programatically and can select everything except the Volume study.

1- Is this still a problem with the selector tool?

2 - If I click the background of the chart it will show that I have selected the back wall. If I click outside the axes it shows that I have clicked the entire chart control. I really only want that to be visible if the user has clicked some series. Is there a way to hide the selection, or set the selection to Nothing, without setting Actve=False?

I think I have the newest, licensced version of the .Net 2010 TeeChart control.

Never mind about the using the Selector Tool on the Volume series. I found that I have to click the very tip of a volume bar for it to be selected. Hmmmm... Seems like you should be able to click anywhere on a bar, but...

The second part of the question remains. Once you have selected something, how do you un-select it programatically?

I suggest you take a look in this post where explain. how you can select a determinate element of Chart using a selector. If it doesn't work as you want please let me know.

I hope will helps.

Thanks,
