Chart X Axis Labels - Label Display Is Inconsistent - VS 2010
Aug 2, 2011
I'm seeing a strange problem with the labels on the X axis of my charts. I've setup two chart areas and aligned them (which displays fine) and the user can manipulate the chart by selecting different date resolutions (Year, Month, Day, Week, Hour) and different time periods.
The issue I'm seeing is that if a user selects say Months as the date resolution the X axis label display is inconsistent. If a fairly broad range for the dates is selected the X axis displays absolutely fine but as the date range narrows the X axis starts to duplicate labels ( please see the attached images). The second Image had a date range of 1st of May to 1st of August and as you can see the labels are duplicated. This is my first go with the chart control so I could be missing something basic. [Code]

I have a P/L chart which has a left scale (Y axis) which starts from a negative value. I want to format the axis labels (the major tick mark labels) so that the negative ones are red.
Something like;
If cht.ChartAreas(chtarea).AxisX.MajorTickMark.Value < 0 Then
cht.ChartAreas(chtarea).AxisY.LabelStyle.Font = New Font("Verdana", 9.0F, FontStyle.Bold, Color.Red)
[Code]....
Of course that doesn't work since MajorTickMark doesn't have a value property. How does one make this work?

I have the smallest dataset in the world that simply consists of a month (text) and and amount. I want to produce a chart showing the month along the y-axis and the value up the x-axis. How do I do it? I have dragged the chart control onto the report page and populated the dataset. The chart shows but nothing like what I would expect. Just to make it simple I populated the dataset with an amount equivalent to the month number so it should show as 1 in January, 2 in Feb etc...However no matter where I drag the dataset's column names I don't get what I want. Where am I going wrong?
I use this simple loop to populate the dataset:
dsSales.Tables("Sales").Clear()
For i As Integer = 1 To 12
dsSales.Tables("Sales").Rows.Add(MonthName(i), i)
Next
ReportViewer1.RefreshReport()
I get this as a result:

I'm having problem with MS Chart chart type column. If there are only 9 bar in the chart like the following picture, then the axis-x label show up properly.
However, there are more than 9 bars bar the chart, the axis-x label wont show up properly, some of them just dissappear.
Here's my mark-up for the chart:
<asp:Chart ID="chtNBAChampionships" runat="server">
<Series>
<asp:Series Name="Championships" YValueType="Int32" Palette="Berry"
[Code]....
I don't know it works with only 9 bars? Is there any way to make the chart work properly? Also, if possible, how to make each bar have different color.

I am using MS chart control .net 4 framework in Visual studio 2010 using Windows forms. I am having an issue with the scale of the primary x axis on a user input from a text box on a button click. I am also using both the primary and secondary y axes which work on a user input.
I have checked the settings for each axis and they all have the same settings. I don't see why both y axes work on the user input and the x does not.
The following is the code I am using:
Private Sub Button1_Click(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Chart1.ChartAreas("Area1").AxisX.Minimum = Val(XPrimeMin.Text)
[Code].....

I can not figure out how to get the chart to display the labels. When I try and add labels, the lines get messed up. Also, if I try and do multiple lines it does not always work out very well. I tried different ColumnLabels and they behave very strange as well. What I want is to be able to have several lines. Each with their own label. And also, I want to specify text for each point at the very bottom of the graph. Let me know what suggestions you have. [Code]

i'm having a problem with AxisX interval labels. I want my AxisX length to be exactly one minute and labels showing every 5 second. So it should be 12 labels all the time. But after that minute passes, I'm getting 13th, than 14th label and so on.

I am using the MSChart object in VB2010. Live futures data is put into an array, then added one point at a time to a line chart (Chart1, one line only) using (1):
frmChart2.Chart1.Series("data").Points.AddXY(sec10, spreadarray(0, sec10))
All fine and good. However, by the time a few thousand data points have come through, its getting hard to see the detail in the chart, therefore I reset the x-axis so that I just see the last 200 (say) points, using (2):
Chart1.ChartAreas("ChartArea1").AxisX.Minimum = frmPrices.sec10 - CLng(lstChartpts.Text)
...where frmPrices.sec10 is the total number of data points, and CLng(lstChartpts.Text) is the number of points required. So if I have 1000 pts, and I wish to see 200 displayed, the AxisX minimum in this case is 1000 - 200 = 800. Points then start to build again one at a time. I am happy with this except that the Y-axis scaling is still taking into consideration all 1000 data values, so need to reset the Yaxis maximum and minimum. No problem (3):
Chart1.ChartAreas("ChartArea1").AxisY.Maximum = (max of the last 200 values + a small increment)
Chart1.ChartAreas("ChartArea1").AxisY.Minimum = (min of the last 200 values - a small increment)
The problem comes in when I want to change the number of points to display back to "ALL". I could re-write the code to use the max and min of all values, as in (3), but I'd rather just reset the yaxis back to the autoscaling that the chart started out with. I've looked everywhere for a property or method to do this! Or is there a way to autoscale the yaxis according to only the displayed values?

I have Date and Time available in xaxis() array format. I would like to assign this to x axis of the MS Chart. My all other data is in datatable format and already have assigned series to this values.Chart1.Series(0).Points.DataBindXY(xaxis, yaxis).. but it gives me error as i do not have valid values for y axis.

I am busy with a routine that will draw a bar chart.The X-axis is from 0 -100, no problem. The problem is the Y-axis.it will range from 0 to whatever the highest y-value will be.
My problem is that the y-axis should still be divided into 10 intervals, and the lenght of my y-axis should be the same in my picture box.I am using an array to fill the values, chartdata (0-9). It gets 10 values from the program. the values are 0 -10, 11 -20,21-30....91-100 . here is the code. It is working, but my Y-axis is messed up. Printing the labels of the y-axis is a problem.

Using the System.Windows.Forms.DataVisualization.Charting objects/namespace, am having problems getting by chart to sort axis of dates properly.My data looks like this (dates in US format):
Product Quantity SaleDate
A -- 2 -- 5/1/2011
B -- 1 -- 5/1/2011
C -- 1 -- 1/1/2011
B -- 2 -- 2/1/2011
I'm creating a stacked column graph like this, where dv is a dataview of the datatable:
vb.net
chSales.DataBindCrossTable(dv, "Product", "SaleDate", "Quantity", "") chSales.AlignDataPointsByAxisLabel() For Each cs As Series In chSales.Series cs.ChartType = SeriesChartType.StackedColumn cs.YValueType = ChartValueType.Int32 cs.XValueType = ChartValueType.DateNext
So this produces a stacked column graph with 2 A's, 1 B in May 11, etc But the date order is Feb, Jan, May, regardless of how I sort the datatable provided to the chart.

I am working on simple handover process from one mobile station to other. I got three proposed results service disruption time, network entry time, connection set up time. I also have the result of these three as by using some conventional way and got improved these three delay results by proposed way. Results are store in textboxes. Now i want to show graphically. E.g. I want to show conventional service disruption time on x axis and proposed service disruption time on y axis or vice versa. Let suppose I want to have a scale on axes from 1 to 3000 milliseconds. Then I want to show how purposed scheme is better. I am using VB.Net 2008.I have created chart. I also studied MS chart for windows forms samples environment. Also applied different chart properties like titles, series and others, But I am not able to make x and y axes scales. How to get values on the axes and how to generate graph? [code]
A chart element with the name '0' could not be found in the 'ChartAreaCollection'.i also tried using ChartAreas(Default") but i am getting same idea.I don't get what for this chartAreas value in parenthesis is used.

I have a data point with a y-value of 1 being plotted, the MS Chart control will use increments of 0.2 on the y-axis. How can I force it to not use a decimal, keeping in mind I will have values of >100 so I can't just force an increment of 1 on the y-axis?

MS released the new MSChart for .net 3.5 sp1. I'm trying to get the hang of it in VS2008. One big issue I have is that if I have no data plotted the chart area axis's aren't drawn. Does anyone know a way around that? That seems like a pretty basic/common issue.

I am deveolping a charting program and have a need to have dynamic draggable labels on the chart for notation purposes. Everything works fine until I try to drag a label past the 32767 (16 bit limit).
Here is the code that I drag the label with:
If ISDRAGGING = True Then 'DRAGGING LABEL
If CURRENTLABEL.Tag = 2 Then
CURRENTLABEL.Left = 0
[Code] .....
I have tried to create a new label and override the Top value with a Long Value, but it still does not do the trick. Hhere is my attempt to overload the top value to an integer.
Public Overloads Property Top() As Long
Get
Return _Top
End Get
Set(ByVal value As Long)
[Code] .....
The charts are dynamically generated from a database and represent depths. Usually at least 10000 feet are plotted at 5 pixels per foot. So some labels will be created or dragged below this 32767 line regularly. Any way to be able to drag the labels past this limit, or possible another option to be able to view these long charts.

I have a VB app and it has a login feature installed. Now when someone logs in into the app I want the users First Name and Last Name to be displayed on my second form where the user gets redirected on a sucesfull login. I don't know how to accomplish this as I am quite new to VB. I have provided my login code below (btw it uses an online database):
MySqlConnection = New MySqlConnection
MySqlConnection.ConnectionString = "server=;Port=; user id=; password=; database="
MySqlConnection.Open()
[Code].....
I think the code which provides the first name and last name need to check the users username which was provided on the first form and search through the DB. Then when it has found the record it should recieve the First Name and Last name.
