IPrxChart.Points

Syntax

Points: String;

Description

The Points property determines address of the range, from which the names of the chart points are obtained.

Example

Executing the example requires a chart in the regular report with the REGULAR_REPORT identifier, and data in the cells B4:F8, A4:A8 and B1:F1. Add links to the Metabase, Report, Tab, Drawing system assemblies.

Sub UserProc;
Var
    Report: IPrxReport;
    Chart: IPrxChart;
    Sheet: ITabSheet;
    MB: IMetabase;
    Style: ITabCellStyle;
    Arr: array Of integer;
    i: integer;
Begin
    //Connect to regular report
    MB := MetabaseClass.Active;
    Report := MB.ItemById("REGULAR_REPORT_POINTS").Edit As IPrxReport;
    Sheet := (Report.Sheets.Item(0) As IPrxTable).TabSheet;
    Chart := Sheet.Objects.Item(0).Extension As IPrxChart;
    //Determine range of numeric values, series names and points names
    Chart.Data := "B4:F8";
    Chart.Series := "A4:A8";
    Chart.Points := "B1:F1";
    //Disable the "Change Ranges Automatically" function for chart data     Chart.AutoAdjust := False;
    //Range of data table, by which chart is built, is filled with specified color
    Style := Chart.DataRange.Style;
    Style.BackgroundColor := New GxColor.CreateRGB(164,199,252);
    //Determine hidden data along category axis
    Arr := Chart.ExcludedPoints;
    Debug.WriteLine("Hidden points: ");
    For Each i In Arr Do
        Debug.WriteLine(Chart.PointNameByIndex(i));
    End For;
    //Disable the "Show Hidden Data" function for chart
    Chart.IncludeHidden := False;
    (Report As IMetabaseObject).Save;
End Sub UserProc;

Chart source data is changed in the regular report.
