Create(TRSCustomChartPanel)

Overloaded. Initializes a new instance of the TRSChartLegend class.

Destroy

Represents the destructor of the TRSChartLegend class. (Overrides RSChartPanel.TRSCustomChartLabel.Destroy.)

Align

Specifies the part of the chart panel ( RSChartPanel.TRSCustomChartPanel ) where the legend will be drawn

Alignment

Represents property Alignment.

Angle

Represents property Angle.

BoxSize

Specifies the size in pixels for the color rectangle that is put next to each legend label. When a value or a chart is put on the legend, a small box or glyph with the color of the value or chart is put beside it. This property controls the size of the color box or glyph.

Brush

Determines the color and pattern for filling the legend. Set the Brush property to specify the color and pattern to use when drawing the background or filling in graphical shapes in the legend. The value of Brush is a TBrush object. Set the properties of the TBrush object to specify the color and pattern or bitmap to use when filling in spaces on the legend canvas.
 

FirstIndex

Specifies the index of the first visible line in the legend, usually 0. Change the FirstIndex if you want the legend to start displaying lines at something besides the first line.

Fixed

Controls whether the legend automatically updates its Lines property. If Fixed is True, the legend will not try to automatically fill the Lines property.

Font

Represents property Font.

LegendStyle

Controls the text style of the legend, e.g., what are the labels of the chart. (See RSChartConsts|TRSLegendStyle for more information). The legend uses the LegendStyle to determine what strings to put in the Lines property.

Lines

Contains the strings that the legend displays. Usually, the legend fills the Lines property based on the   LegendStyle and   TextStyle as well as how many charts are being painted in the chart panel. Use the Lines property to provide quick access to the labels of the legend.

Margins

Specifies the margins, or empty space, for the top, left, right, and bottom of the legend. Use the Margins property to specifies the legend margins in pixels.

MaxColumns

Defines the maximum number of columns the legend will display.

MaxRows

Defines the maximum number of rows or lines the legend will display. Be careful how large you set the MaxRows property as you can easily make the legend too big for the chart. If you increase the rows, you may want to also decrease the   Font size to allow the increased number of rows.

MaxWidthPct

Constrains the width of the legend to a percentage of the total chart panel size. Usually, the width of the legend is dictated by the longest line in the Lines property. However, if that line is really long, this would mean that the legend would be bigger than the TRSCustomChartPanel.Width itself. This property constrains the width of the legend to a percentage of the chart panel width, by default 25%.

NeedsUpdate

Represents property NeedsUpdate.

OnChange

Occurs immediately after the chart graphic object changes. Write an OnChange event handler to take specific action when the chart graphic changes. The properties of the chart graphic reflect the new settings when OnChange occurs.

OnGetLegendStrings

Represents property OnGetLegendStrings.

Opacity

Represents property Opacity.

Options

Specifies the options for the legend box or glyph

Overlay

Controls whether the legend is drawn on top of the charts in the chart panel or overlayed on top of the charts in the chart panel.

When Overlay is True, the charts are drawn at full size and the legend will be drawn over the charts and possibly obscuring them. When Overlay is False (the default), the legend occupies part of the chart panel and the charts are drawn in the other area. How much the legend occupies when Overlay is False is dependent on the MaxRows , MaxWidthPct and Align property. If Align is left or right, the legend occupies at most MaxWidthPct of the chart panel. If the legend is aligned with the top or bottom, the legend will occupy at most MaxRows lines (but usually less as the legend tries to create multiple columns in this case).

Owner

Returns the RSChartPanel.TRSCustomChartPanel instance that owns this legend.

Pen

Specifies the kind of pen the chart legend uses for drawing lines and outlining shapes. Set Pen to specify the pen to use for drawing lines and outlining shapes in the legend. The value of Pen is a TPen object in VCL or TStrokeBrush in FMX. Set the properties of the TRSPen object to specify the color, style, width, and mode of the pen.
 

RectStyle

Defines the outer rectangle shape used for the legend

ResizeBounds

Represents property ResizeBounds.

Shadow

Defines the shadow used for the legend. Use the properties of this class to modify the shadow of the legend. The shape of the shadow is defined by the   RectStyle property.

Text

Specifies the text of the label (Inherited from RSChartPanel.TRSCustomChartLabel.)

TextStyle

Defines the format for the RSChartPanel.TRSChartValue labels in the legend. The   FormatValue method uses this property to determine what string format to use.

TextVerticalAlign

Represents property TextVerticalAlign.

Visible

Represents property Visible.

Assign(TPersistent)

Copies the contents of another similar object to the current object

BoundsRect(TCanvas,TCanvasRect,TCanvasPixel)

Returns the rectangle where the legend will be located on the Canvas. It also returns LongestWidth, which contains the longest text width of any label in the Lines property. What rectangle the BoundsRect method returns is dependent on the ARect parameter first of all, the labels being displayed in Lines, then the Align property, the MaxWidthPct, MaxRows, and Overlay properties.

Use the BoundsRect method to determine where the legend will draw itself.

Changed

Overloaded. Represents method Changed. (Inherited from RSChartPanel.TRSChartGraphic.)

Clone

Creates a "deep" copy of the chart graphic. It constructs a new chart graphic of the correct type and then calls the   Assign method to copy its properties to the new copy. (Inherited from RSChartPanel.TRSChartGraphic.)

Draw(TCanvas,TCanvasRect)

Overloaded. Paints the chart graphic to the specified Canvas in the specified location. It uses the current canvas' brush and pen. Use the Draw method to paint the chart graphic to any canvas and anywhere and with any size on the canvas.

Draw(TCanvas,TCanvasRect,TRSChartAxis,TRSChartAxis)

Overloaded.  Paints the chart graphic to the specified Canvas in the specified location. It uses the current canvas' brush and pen. Use the Draw method to paint the chart graphic to any canvas and anywhere and with any size on the canvas.

The VertAxis and HorizAxis parameters can be used to provide point to pixel conversions (see RSChartPanel.TRSChartAxis ).

DrawGlyph(TCanvas,Integer,TCanvasPixel,TCanvasPixel)

Represents method DrawGlyph(TCanvas,Integer,TCanvasPixel,TCanvasPixel).

Drawing(TCanvas,TCanvasRect)

Represents method InternalDraw(TCanvas,TCanvasRect). (Overrides RSChartPanel.TRSCustomChartLabel.InternalDraw(TCanvas,TCanvasRect).)

IsShowingCharts

Returns True if the legend will be displaying chart names in the legend. This value is dependent on the   LegendStyle as well as how many charts are visible in the chart panel.

LongestLine(TCanvas,TCanvasRect)

Represents method SenderChanged(TObject). (Overrides RSChartPanel.TRSChartGraphic.SenderChanged(TObject).)

SetFont(TFont)

Represents method SetFont(TFont). (Overrides RSChartPanel.TRSCustomChartLabel.SetFont(TFont).)

Overloaded.  Tiles the image across the entire input rectangle.

The Image is drawn at full size from the top left of the ARect across and down until outside of the input rectangle. Use the overloaded TiledDraw methods to constrain the size of the Image.

TiledDraw(TCanvas,TCanvasRect,TTileGraphic,TCanvasPixel,TCanvasPixel,TCanvasPixel,TCanvasPixel)

Overloaded.  Tiles the image across the entire input rectangle.

The Image is drawn at ImageWidth, ImageHeight size from the top left of the ARect across and down until outside of the input rectangle.

TiledDraw(TCanvas,TCanvasRect,TTileGraphic,TCanvasRect)

VisibleChanged

Represents method VisibleChanged. (Inherited from RSChartPanel.TRSChartGraphic.)

OnDraw

Occurs just after the chart graphic is painted. Write an OnDraw event handler to take specific action when the chart graphic has finished painting. The OnDraw event also allows you to do custom painting after the chart graphic has painted. (Inherited from RSChartPanel.TRSChartGraphic.)

OnDrawing

Occurs just before the chart graphic is painted. Write an OnDrawing event handler to take specific action when the chart graphic is about to paint. If the event handler sets the DoDraw parameter to False, the chart graphic will not be painted. The OnDraw event also allows you to do custom painting before the chart graphic has been painted. (Inherited from RSChartPanel.TRSChartGraphic.)
