FilterItems on Legend gives error

[sh]

Hello,

I need to hide some series in the Legend (every series over index 7) and therefore use the FilterLegend Eventhendler as you describe in your support items:

Private Sub Legend_FilterItems(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Chart.ChartLegendFilterItemsEventArgs)
' This creates an new instance of the ChartLegendItemCollection
Dim items(7) As Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Chart.LegendItem
For i As Integer = e.Items.Length - 1 To 7 Step - 1
items(i) = e.Items(i)
Next
e.Items = items

End Sub

I also tried it with:

e.Items.Clear(e.Items, 7, e.Items.Length - 7)


I also tried the eventhandler as earlier above, but without leaving out items.
In all cases I get the following error when running the code:

Source: Syncfusion.Chart.Base

Object reference not set to an instance of an object
at Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Chart.ChartLegend.AutoSize(Rectangle rect)
at Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Chart.ChartLegend.AutoLocation(Rectangle rect)
at Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Chart.ChartControl.RecalculateSizes()
at Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Chart.ChartControl.Redraw(Boolean update)
at Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Chart.ChartControl.LegendVisibleChanged(Object sender, EventArgs e)
at System.Windows.Forms.Control.OnVisibleChanged(EventArgs e)
at System.Windows.Forms.Control.OnParentVisibleChanged(EventArgs e)
at System.Windows.Forms.Control.OnVisibleChanged(EventArgs e)

We are working with version: 3.201.1.0
I saw another item on this forum with similar error notification (By dms at 6/20/2006 8:42:17 PM ). I think I need the same patch.

Could you provide me with this or do you have a workaround?

Thanx.

Correction on sent code:

Dim items(e.Items.Length) As Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Chart.LegendItem
For i As Integer = 0 To 7
items(i) = e.Items(i)
Next
e.Items = items


I tried numerous variations, all with same error as result..

[sh]

I now see that I could also use the custom points for what I need, but also here there seems to go something wrong. I noticed that this was brought to your attention already in another forum item: By Dmitry at 10/13/2005 10:51:17 AM :

When adding more then one custom point, the first points will take the shape/color/image of the last point, even if you declare a new custompoint variable.

Has this been solved yet and/or could this be patched to my version?

Thanx, Sandra

Hi,

It seems that the link to the zip file doesn't work.
I get a file not found message when trying to open/download the zip file.

Can you please solve this?

Thanx,

Hello,

Also here the example does not work on my version of the chart. (By the way: working with VS.NET 2003)

I adjusted the code of your example so I could compile it in my version.
I attached the result.

Also here, after removing items from the legend, the application crashes when running the form.

Can you please check this and send me a patch or a working example of custom points, please?

Thanx, Sandra

Hi Sansan,

Sorry for the inconvenience caused, and thanks for bringing this to our attention. But this issue is fixed in version v3.2.1.1 itself.

Hi Sansan,

The custom point issue is also fixed in version v3.3.

So please upgrade to latest version.

Thanks for using Syncfusion products.

Thank you for your reply.
Downloadnig the latest version is no option though. We are going live very soon and the latest version has too many differences to apply all within that time.

I would rather get the 3.2.1.1 version, since I need to work out the bugs. Could you please provide us with that version, so that we can continue working with Essential Chart.

Thank you.
Sandra
