Chart Host Control splitter bar and visible data

[Administrator]

Hi,
V4.4.0.51 & VS2003

In your Syncfusion sample:
C:\Program Files\Syncfusion\Essential Studio\4.4.0.51\windows\Chart.Windows\Samples\Chart Host Controls\ChartTableSample\cs

It demos adding a grid control to the chartcontrol. That is great. I need to add two functions to it:

1. How can I add a spliter bar between the grid control and chart area so that I can change the grid size by drag the spliter bar? Is there any built-in spliter bar for that?
2. The grid has scrollbar to let you view all data. but when you 'Export Image' or 'Print', it only got the visible rows in the grid. How can I export or print all grid rows? any built-in function for that?

Hi Lan,

There is no build-in splitter bar in chart control. However I have found the alternate workaround for this issue. Please have a look at this sample attached below.

http://websamples.syncfusion.com/samples/Chart.Windows/F57563/main.htm

In my sample, I have resized the grid control at run time using the mouse move event of the grid control.

Please look at our sample and let me know if this helps you.

Hi Rajesh,
Your sample is great.

I got one more question for you.
In your sample, when you click the grid border to resize it, it easily happens to drag the grid into 'Floating' position. I want to the grid always to stay at top, don't allow to drag it the floating or borrom. How can I do it? Is there built-in property in the this.chartControl1.DockingManager?

Thanks for help.

Hi Lan,

Please try to set DockingFree property as false. Please refer to the following code snippet.

[C#]
this.chartDockControl1.DockingFree = false;
this.chartDockControl1.Dock = DockStyle.None;

Please let me know if this code snippet helps you.

Hi,
V4.4.0.51 & VS2003
I tried your code, got compile error:
C:\PMA\STN.PMA.UL\frmGraph.cs(102): 'Syncfusion.Windows.Forms.Chart.ChartControl' does not contain a definition for 'DockingFree'.
