I have a chart that I plot data points onto however if the user replots the graph the old datapoints are still there hiding the new datapoints. Essentially how can I clear the chart area of a graph?
My requirement is to graph (scatter graph) data from 2 arrays. I can now connect the data from the array and use it on the chart. My question is, how do I set the graph's X- and Y- axes to show consistency in their intervals?
I want to draw graph in visual basic 2010 form which changes with time. Just like the CPU usage history graph in the "Windows task manager" dialog box. Thats time vs. usage graph. I want to make applications with that kind of graph.
I am writing a VB program that measures the voltage on a circuit and then graphs the voltage value. I read what the voltage is at ever milisecond and load that value into an array and shift all the data one to the right. On each timer tick i regraph the data.
The problem i am having is on each tick i erase the picturebox then i redraw the graph using the new array. Because of this the further out the line is from the start of the drawing processes the less it shows the line. You get a flicker effect. I have been seeing if there are ways to remove the flicker but the few things i have found have to deal with doublebuffered but i do not think that is the issue here. I think i need to find some other way to clear the picturebox.[code]...
I"m having a bit of trouble getting my pie graph to work. I'm not too sure if I should be posting here, but it's about vb so I thought it would sort of fit. I've used the chart control from the toolbox, and dragged one of those across to use. I can't get more than one item to display in the chart.
I have a series of x and y co-ordinates that I would like to plot on a line graph. Can anyone recommend any simple tutorials that would get be started?I have my chart component on the form, I'm guessing that I need to declare a collection of datapoints and loop through the adding each to the graph
I've got a bar chart on my form which when I click a button, it populates with some data showing the clients net position, which is their assets vs their liabilities. This is shown on a year-by-year basis, so the graph will go up or down accordingly. If the graph goes into negative, or is negative at any stage, I would like it to turn red, and leave the positive values green. I have no idea how to do this, or even where to start looking into the properties. I'm still new to using the charts. How can I make the x-axis labels in increments of 5 from 0, instead of increments of 5 from -1?
Im trying to plot the reading of 20 or more thermocouples in a single chart area.But it seems that the build in charting in vb.net can't handle that. My program just crashes when adding a series somwhere between the 14th or 18th series.Anyone know of any setting i can change or a better charting plugin?
I have a ms access database with few tables and queries. I need to draw a graph/chart with the results of the queries in excel. Is it possible to do with vb.net coding?
I have two values those are contiguously One is Time along x-axis and second is the CPU Usage in percentage along Y - Axis. I want to draw a continuous line Chart/graph what ever called.
Anyone have VB.Net or VBA code to ascertain if an Excel Object is positioned over (Hiding) spreadsheet data?I have code to create/position a chart object. Where would I begin to determine if there is data "under" an object.
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 trying to fade-in the application startup form using the forms opacity and a timer control.I dont know if I am using the right approch to achieve this so suggestions for alternatativ approches are welcome.I have a form with a few randomly select controls on it, one of which is a textbox.When I run the code, the form and all its controls reflect the changes to the form opacity property set through the timer_tick event except the textbox.The textbox remains clear all the time and I would like to know: Why?[code].....
I currently have a chart that plots lines of a changing value every time it is called via a timer.
Everything is running as I expected and I am happy, but now I want to be able to press a [STOP] button which will stop the timer and stop the graph from updating, (which I have coded and is now working OK), BUT I then want the code under this [STOP] button to clear everything from the graph, so when I re-start the timer, the graph is cleared and starts plotting fresh points on a clean graph.
The problem I currently have is that when I press the [STOP] button and then press the [START] button, the new lines that get plotted are "added" to the existing lines that are already on the chart, instead of having a new "blank" chart, with no data on it.
So what I am really asking is does anyone know if it is possible to reset a chart clearing everything off it so it is ready to start displaying fresh data?
I was hoping it was something like: "Chart1.Clear" or something simple like that, but I can't seem to find anything that will do it.
I am working on an application that ties into a SQL database on the back end. Currently the main form contains a series of combo boxes (Graph type, data format, location, and customer), two date pickers, and a button to launch the selections in a new form. Everything works just fine except there are a couple of things I can't seem to accomplish.
Example Data:
[CODE]...........
Case Select (with commented out lines for variations attempted):
[CODE]..........
1) I would like to be able to use some sort of case statement to color the bars in my chart based on value. I have tried approaching this in a couple of different ways but neither of the options seem to work. First, I tried this (the If Not is used because depending on what values are passed to the stored procedure in SQL, different columns will be returned):
[CODE]..........
Only one series is created with this method, so I can see how/why a Select Case would set all bars the same color. I have also tried creating a series for each row in the returned dataset but it results in 22 bars of different colors, for each of the rows (484 bars):
[CODE]..........
So is there any way to modify the second set of code there to only select the value from the "Percent TMHB" cell that corresponds with Row(i), rather than ALL values from the "Percent TMHB" column for EACH Row(i)?
2) Since I am drawing/creating these graphs in a new window, is there any way to also create a new timer on the "newFrm" and have the tick refresh the data? I've struggled with this but I feel like it should be easy. Say someone chooses a "TMHB", "Percentage", "Chicago", "All" (Graph type, data format, location, customer) and launches the graph, which opens in a new window, then they want to do "TMHB", "Percentage", "LA", "All" and have both windows up, refreshing automatically throughout the day. Can I somehow store the SelectCommand.Parameters values in the new form/timer so that it will query the database again every 5 minutes?
Example code for the StoredProcedure and creating the new form:
If combo_GraphType.SelectedItem = "TMHB" Then Dim newFrm As New Form Dim newChart As New Chart
When I will click the suggested text shown in the combobox it will disappear.My Combobox btw is connected in a database.If I type Kev then kevin and kevsky will show at its suggestion then when I will click any of it ,the combobox text will be empty or will clear what I typed ("Kev") and will not show what I clicked.[code]
I have a chart in Excel that I'd like to use a subtitle on. There is no SubTitle Property on the chart object, so I looked in the Excel User interface and found that you can only create a sub-title by using a text box. The text box looks like its associated with the chart, not the worksheet, so how would I access that text box from code?
Trying to set the viewable area to a smaller screen area and have it cycle through as the person moves using collision detection to move the backgroudn image. Here is the start but its off to a bad start so far.
Public Class Form1 Dim Mapx As Integer = 600 Dim Mapy As Integer = 2000
[code]....
Basically the forum size is set to 600x2000 but the client should only allow you to view 600x600. I want it to add +1 once you "collide with a invisable box I'll add and this will redraw the screen.
I designed a form and managed to fit graphics inside it. Picture box is 465 pixels high. Form1 is 500 pixels high. SnapShot of the screen verifies that the 500 pixel height is the overal height. It includes the upper Bar and lower frame. Is there an instruction to set the From's inner pixel size and not overal?
How do I dynamically add or remove a chart series on a WinForm. To date all my MS Charting experience has been dealing with ASP.Net charts with static sql select statment to a SQL Database. In the new project that I have been assigned I have different cities with different amounts of points that they want monitored. One city might have 3 an another might have 5 or 7 so I can't hard code the amount of series that I need. It needs to be set up so the amount of series can be flexible depending on the city selected and then display those points on the chart.
