  XYchart with RHS axis adding horizontalbarlayer to LHS of chart
Posted by Craig R on May-29-2020 05:06
Hello Peter,

I have a XYchart with 2x datasets with 2x RHS Yaxis.
I am trying to add another dataset as LHS Y axis with a horizontal linelayer barlayer.
The chart data has no relation to X axis only LHS Y axis.
I see the method to swap axis but this affect existing chart.

Is there another approach to add another Linelayer barlayer as 3rd Yaxis LHS with horizontal visual.

Regards
Craig R

Hi Craig,

Are you trying to draw something like in the following example?

Hi Craig,

Basically, you can draw a horizontal bar chart using a separate XYChart object, and then merge that bar chart to the plot area of your other financial XYChart.

As an example, I have modified the "CandleStick Chart" sample code that comes with ChartDirector by adding the price volume bars. See the attached files.

Hello Peter,

fyi, I am using vb.net WPF, if that's makes a difference to example.
I have tried to get the chart to merge, no success, cannot even see it.
I have tried basic example and no success.
Have enabled  c.getDrawArea().setEnableExceptions(True) but getting no exceptions.

Any ideas

Regards
Craig R

Hello Peter,  all good, I had to set chart to transparent to see merged chart.

Thanks
