IsDependent: Boolean;
The IsDependent property determines dependency of legend from data.
By default the property is set to True.
If the value is False, legend does not depend on data, that is, maximum/minimum values in the legend do not change with changing of visible data. After the main legend is declared as independent, a new main legend is created which is dependent on the selected data.
Executing the example requires that the repository contains an express report with the EXP identifier that contains a bubble tree. The module containing the example should have links to the Express, Metabase and Visualizators system assemblies. There also must be a form containing the following components:
A button with the Button1 identifier.
The UiErAnalyzer component with the UiErAnalyzer1 identifier. The Object property is set up to the EXP express report, the Active property is set to True.
The EaxDocumentViewerBox component with the EaxDocumentViewerBox1 identifier. The Analyzer property contains the UiErAnalyzer1 value.
The example is an event handler for the Button1 button:
Sub Button1OnClick(Sender: Object; Args: IMouseEventArgs);
Var
Analyzer : IEaxAnalyzer; // Express report
BubbleTree: IVZBubbleTree; // Bubble tree
SizeLegend: IVZSizeLegend; // Size legend
Begin
Analyzer := UiErAnalyzer1.ErAnalyzer;
BubbleTree := Analyzer.BubbleTree.BubbleTree;
//Get size scale
SizeLegend := BubbleTree.Legends.Item(1) As IVZSizeLegend;
//Set independency on data
SizeLegend.IsDependent := False;
//Refresh the component. On the update a new size legend is created,
// because there is no legend, bound to data
Analyzer.BubbleTree.Refresh;
//Determine binding of independent legend to upper part of the report
SizeLegend.VerticalAlignment := VisualizatorVerticalAlignment.Top;
//Refresh the component
Analyzer.BubbleTree.Refresh;
End Sub Button1OnClick;
After executing the example the legend with index 1 becomes independent on the data, after which a new data-dependent legend is automatically created. For improved visualization the independent legend is moved to the upper part of the report.
If maximum values of selected data are further changed, the independent legend remains the same, but the new legend changes its maximum value.
