[Lan]

Hi,
upgrade our product application from v3.3.0.0 to v4.4.0.51 in VS2003, the ChartControl's default background color has been changed. Please see attached jpg files.

I want to set the backgound color as default in v3.3.0.0. Which property I should set?

Hi Lan,

The default Background color can be changed by setting the properties Chart Control's 'BackInterior', 'ChartInterior' and Chart Area's 'BackInterior'.

1) You can write the code in Form Load event.
2) Or Change the existing code which is available in “Windows Form Designer generated code” region

Please look into the following sample code.

this.chartControl1.BackInterior = new Syncfusion.Drawing.BrushInfo(Syncfusion.Drawing.GradientStyle.None, System.Drawing.Color.White, System.Drawing.Color.White);
this.chartControl1.ChartArea.BackInterior = new Syncfusion.Drawing.BrushInfo(Syncfusion.Drawing.GradientStyle.None, System.Drawing.Color.White, System.Drawing.Color.White);
this.chartControl1.ChartInterior = new Syncfusion.Drawing.BrushInfo(Syncfusion.Drawing.GradientStyle.None, System.Drawing.Color.White, System.Drawing.Color.White);

Please take a look into the sample attached for more details.

Hi,
in V4.4.0.51, for the default chartcontrol background color, there is a light-white line under the chart title. How to hide it?
Thanks,

Lan

Hi Lan,

Thanks for bringing this issue to our attention.

To display Y axis from 0 while the chart is in “Indexed mode”, you can set the following properties which will remove unnecessary spaces at the edges.

1) this.chartControl1.PrimaryXAxis.RangePaddingType = ChartAxisRangePaddingType.None;
this.chartControl1.PrimaryYAxis.RangePaddingType = ChartAxisRangePaddingType.None;

2) this.chartControl1.PrimaryXAxis.RangeType = ChartAxisRangeType.Set;
this.chartControl1.PrimaryXAxis.Range.Min = 0;
this.chartControl1.PrimaryYAxis.RangeType = ChartAxisRangeType.Set;
this.chartControl1.PrimaryYAxis.Range.Min = 0;

Please have a look into this sample which will help you.

=================================================

Hello Lan,
Thank you for your interest in Syncfusion’s products. We have a patch ready for you. While I was trying to create an incident for you in Direct Trac so that you could receive it, I found that I was not able to locate a license in your account, when I searched our database with the following e-mail address: [email protected].

To ensure that you receive the fastest possible response times from our support team, it’s important that we keep your account up to date.

It is our general policy to assign each license to its end user. If you are the developer working with a colleague’s license, it would be best to transfer the license to your account. All I need to make the transfer is an authorization email from COLLEAGUE WHO HOLDS THE LICENSE.

Along with ensuring timely responses, we would like you to be able to download updates via our online Direct-Trac support center. We can only ensure this service if your record is accurate and complete.

We appreciate your business. I look forward to hearing from you.

Regards,
Srilatha
