Syntax

SymbolSpace: Double;

Description

Example

Executing the example requires a regular report with a chart and an external legend on the report sheet. A unit is added to the report and the UserProc procedure is called from this unit using the hyperlink. The inspector of unit assemblies must contain links to the Chart, Report, Tab system assemblies.

Sub UserProc;
Var
    Chart: IChartExternLegend;
Begin
    Chart := (PrxReport.ActiveReport.ActiveSheet As IPrxTable).TabSheet.Objects.Item(1) As IChartExternLegend;
    Chart.SymbolSpaceIntervalAuto := False;
    Chart.SymbolSpaceInterval := 5;
End Sub UserProc;

After executing the example the distance between the icon and the text of the external legend elements is changed by 5 mm.
