The TRSChartPanel component publishes the properties and events of its TRSCustomChartPanel component ancestor. The TRSCustomChartPanel component provides the panel or the canvas which is the visual parent of the charts (and where they are drawn) and where the user interacts with the charts (zooming, panning, selecting). It provides the ability to significantly customize the look and feel of objects that are drawn with a chart: axes, legend, shadow, gradients, foreground and background, etc.

• Panel Itself
•Background (the surface or layer behind all chart panel elements)
•Gradient (Drawn behind the chart panel elements and obscures the Background)
•Header (the area above where the charts are drawn)
•Footer (the area below where the charts are drawn)
•BottomAxis
•TopAxis
•LeftAxis
•RightAxis
• ChartBackground
•Charts
•Legend (the text box that labels the charts or their values)
•Foreground (the surface or layer in front of all chart panel elements)

In addition, the ChartShadow defines the attributes of the shadow that all chart elements can optionally cast.Except for the panel and the charts, each element of the chart descends, either directly or indirectly, from the TRSChartGraphic class, which provides common properties and methods of the elements of the chart. You can control which elements are drawn by setting each element's Visible property.

Canvas

Represents property Canvas. (Inherited from FMX.RS.ChartPanel.TRSCustomChartPanel.)

published property

ChartBackground

Represents property ChartBackground.

public property

ChartColorList

Defines the color list to use when new charts are created. When a chart is created and a color is not specified, the object will get a new color based on the next color in the list. If the list is at the end, the new color will be the first color in the list.

Set the ChartColorList property directly to define your own custom color scheme. Set the ChartColorScheme property to use one of the predefined color lists.

published property

ChartColorScheme

Represents property ChartColorScheme.

public property

ChartRect

Specifies the size (in pixels) of the area of the panel that contains the actual charts, e.g., where the charts are drawn. This is the area of the panel that does not include the   Header,   Footer, axes, etc. Read ChartRect to find the size of the chart area of the chart panel. The ChartRect will change in response to what elements of the chart panel are visible and their size.
 (Inherited from FMX.RS.ChartPanel.TRSCustomChartPanel.)

public property

Charts

Contains the list of charts associated with the chart panel, e.g., their Panel property is set to the chart panel.

noteNote

The order of the charts in the list matters. The chart at Index 0 is drawn first, and then every chart is drawn over it.

Listeners

Maintains a list of     IChartPanelListeners that are interested in changes to the chart panel. The TRSCustomChartPanel control will call the Listeners' methods as changes (adding, deleting, and modifying charts and chart values) occur in the control.

alert_noteNotes to Implementers

Add your class (that implements the IChartPanelListener interface) to this list in order to receive chart and chart value changes without using the regular events. The TRSLegendListBox and TRSChartFunction classes use this mechanism to listen to the chart panel without tieing up the event handlers (leaving them free for users)

public method

Pan(Integer,Integer,Boolean,Boolean)

Overloaded.  Moves the visual window (or the zoomed window) that the chart panel displays. The zoomed area is not changed. By default, the Pan method uses the     BottomAxis and the     LeftAxis to pan. By changing the UseBottomAxis and UseLeftAxis parameters, you can change which axes are used. The MoveX and MoveY parameters, which is based on pixels, are first converted into the equivalent amounts based on chart axis values.

Specifying a positive MoveX amount moves the zoomed window right and a negative amount moves it left. Specifying a positive MoveY amount moves the zoomed window up and a negative amount moves it down.

Use the overloaded Pan method to move the visual window using chart axis values directly.

noteNote

The Pan method does nothing if no chart axis is zoomed (Zooming = False).

public method

Pan(TRSChartValueType,TRSChartValueType,Boolean,Boolean)

Overloaded.  Moves the visual window (or the zoomed window) that the chart panel displays. The zoomed area is not changed. By default, the Pan method uses the     BottomAxis and the     LeftAxis to pan. By changing the UseBottomAxis and UseLeftAxis parameters, you can change which axes are used. The MoveX and MoveY parameters, which are based on chart values, specify the movement amount.

Specifying a positive MoveX amount moves the zoomed window right and a negative amount moves it left. Specifying a positive MoveY amount moves the zoomed window up and a negative amount moves it down.

Use the overloaded Pan method to move the visual window using canvas pixel values.

noteNote

The Pan method does nothing if no chart axis is zoomed (Zooming = False).

public methodClass member

PointToAxesPoint(TCanvasPoint,TRSChartAxis,TRSChartAxis)

Converts a canvas coordinate to axes coordinates using the specified X and Y axes. The PointToAxesPoint uses the TRSChartAxis PixelToAxis method. Unlike the PixelToAxis method which converts only the x value or y value, the PointToAxesPoint method converts a point to the internal point coordinate. (Inherited from FMX.RS.ChartPanel.TRSCustomChartPanel.)

public methodClass member

RectToAxesRect(TCanvasRect,TRSChartAxis,TRSChartAxis)

Converts pixel rectangle coordinates to axes coordinates using the specified X and Y axes. The RectToAxesRect method uses the TRSChartAxis PixelToAxis method.

public method

Zoom(TRSPoint,Single,Single,Boolean,Boolean)

Overloaded.  Zooms the chart panel to desired point in chart coordinates. The magnification of the zoom area is specified by the ZoomX and ZoomY parameters, e.g., ZoomX/ZoomY = 2 means 2x magnification. A value less than or equal to 1 unzooms that axis.

Usually, this method zooms the     BottomAxis and the     LeftAxis to change displayed area for charts associated with those axes. Set the UseBottomAxis parameter to False to use the TopAxis and the UseLeftAxis parameter to False to use the     RightAxis.

Use the     ZoomPixelArea method to zoom the visual window by using a pixel coordinate rectangle of the chart panel's canvas. Use the     Zoom method to zoom the visual window by using a chart value coordinate rectangle directly.
 

public method

Zoom(TRSRect,Boolean,Boolean)

Overloaded.  Zooms the chart panel to the desired rectangle. Usually, it zooms the     BottomAxis and the     LeftAxis to change displayed area for charts associated with those axes. Set the UseBottomAxis parameter to False to use the TopAxis and the UseLeftAxis parameter to False to use the     RightAxis. The Zoom method accepts a chart value coordinate rectangle and zooms the visual window to that rectangle.

Use the ZoomPixelArea method to zoom the visual window by using a pixel coordinate rectangle of the chart panel's canvas.

The Zoom method uses the TRSChartAxis.Zoom method to change the ZoomMinimum and ZoomMaximum properties of the specified horizontal and vertical axes.
 

public method

ZoomPixelArea(TCanvasRect,Boolean,Boolean)

Overloaded.  Zooms the chart panel to the desired rectangle. Usually, it zooms the     BottomAxis and the     LeftAxis to change displayed area for charts associated with those axes. Set the UseBottomAxis parameter to False to use the TopAxis and the UseLeftAxis parameter to False to use the     RightAxis. The ZoomPixelArea method accepts a pixel coordinate rectangle within the chart panel, converts that rectangle to a chart value coordinate rectangle for the desired axes, and zooms the visual window to that rectangle.

Use the Zoom method to zoom the visual window by using a chart value coordinate rectangle directly.

The ZoomPixelArea method uses the FMX.RS.ChartPanel.TRSChartAxis .Zoom method to change the ZoomMinimum and ZoomMaximum properties of the specified horizontal and vertical axes.
