expandingProperties

 

Name

Description

published property

Alignment

Specifies the location of the Caption within the 2D boundaries of the path shape. Use the Alignment property to position your text within the path shape.

published property

AsDateTime

Provides access to the   Value property as a TDateTime value.

alert_noteNotes to Inheritors

Usually this property provides access to the first dimension (X) of the value array. However, descendant classes can change which dimension this property accesses.

public property

AsDateTimes[Integer]

Represents property AsDateTimes[Integer]. (Inherited from RSChartPanel.TRSChartValue.)

published property

Brush

Specifies the color and pattern for filling the path shape. Set the Brush property to specify the color and pattern to use when drawing the background or filling in the path shape. The value of Brush is a TBrush object. Set the properties of the TBrush object to specify the color and pattern or bitmap to use when filling in the path shape on the canvas.
 

published property

Caption

Provides a caption or description of the chart value. This value will only be drawn if coLabelEachPoint is in the chart's   Options property. (Inherited from RSChartPanel.TRSChartValue.)

public property

Collection

Specifies the RSCharts.TRSPathChartValues instance to
which this Item belongs. Each collection item belongs to the
collection which creates it. The Collection property
points to the collection object to which the value belongs.
 

published property

Color

Specifies the color of this individual value, e.g., the color of the bar or the point or the shape. When coColorEachPoint is in the RSChartPanel.TRSCustomChart.Options property, this color is drawn by the chart. When coColorEachPoint is not in the the Options property, the Color of the chart is used. (Inherited from RSChartPanel.TRSChartValue.)

public property

Current

Contains the Path Data modified to fit within its X, Y, Width, Height rectangle (   ShapeRect). The Current Path Data is used for drawing the path while preserving the original Data if its boundaries change.

published property

Data

Defines the path data for the path chart value. The path data is a FMX.Graphics.TPathData-type path data (with extensions and bug fixed), describing curves and lines, contained in the TRSPathData object.
 

published property

Font

Specifies the font used to draw each path shape's Caption. Set Font to specify the font to use for writing text. The value of Font is a TFont object. Set the properties of the TFont object to specify the font face, color, size, style, and any other aspects of the font.
 

published property

Height

The Height and   Width properties specify the size of the path shape. Set Height or Width to change the size of the path shape. Using the X, Y, Width and Height properties, you specify the exact rectangle where the path shape will be drawn.
 

public property

NeedPathUpdate

Returns True if the   Current Path Data needs to be updated because of changes to the Data or the   ShapeRect.

noteNote

If NeedPathUpdate is true, the next time this path is drawn, the     UpdatePath method will be called first (and NeedPathUpdate will be false thereafter)

published property

Opacity

Specifies the opacity of the value when drawn. The opacity is a value between 0 (invisible) and 1 (fully opaque). Any value in-between controls the transparency of the value.

alert_cautionImportant Note

This is an FMX only feature. Any value > 0 is drawn fully opaque in the VCL version

protected property

Options

Represents property Options. (Inherited from RSChartPanel.TRSChartValue.)

published property

Pen

Specifies the kind of pen the chart graphic area uses for outlining the path shape. Set Pen to specify the pen to use for outlining the path shape. The value of Pen is a TRSPen object (TPen in VCL and TStrokeBrush in FMX). Set the properties of the TRSPen object to specify the color, style, width, and mode of the pen.
 

published property

Scale

Specifies the scale factor for the value. A scale factor of 1 (default) draws the value at its normal size within the chart. Change the scale factor to shrink or grow the value within the chart (for drawing purposes only) (Inherited from RSChartPanel.TRSChartValue.)

public property

Selected

Determines whether the chart value is selected. Use the Selected property to select or deselect a chart value. Selected chart values are displayed with the   SelectionColor of the chart panel.
 (Inherited from RSChartPanel.TRSChartValue.)

public property

ShapeRect

Returns the rectangle bounded by the X, Y, Width, and Height properties

published property

Tag

Provides user-defined storage that is associated with the value (Inherited from RSChartPanel.TRSChartValue.)

published property

Value

Returns the main (or only) dimension in a chart value - which dimension is returned is based on the chart type. A chart value, depending on the chart type, can contain 1 or more dimensional values that define the chart value.

For example, each chart value in a bar chart contains 1 value (defining the height of the bar), line chart values contains 2 dimensions: X and Y, and shape chart values contain 4 dimensions: X, Y, Width, and Height. The     ValueCount property returns the number of dimensions in the chart value. Use the Values property to access each dimension in the chart value (Note that TRSChartValue descendant classes expose properties, such as X and Y, which are safer to access the specific dimension of the value. You should not count on a specific dimension index to contain a specific property).

alert_noteNotes to Inheritors

To change which dimension is returned by this Value, override the GetDefValue and     SetDefValue methods

public property

ValueCount

Returns the number of dimensions in the chart value. A chart value, depending on the chart type, can contain 1 or more dimensional values that define the chart value.

For example, each chart value in a bar chart contains 1 value (defining the height of the bar), line chart values contains 2 dimensions: X and Y, and shape chart values contain 4 dimensions: X, Y, Width, and Height.

Use the Values property to access each dimension in the chart value. The Value property in comparison returns the main (or only) dimension in a chart value - which dimension is returned is based on the chart type.

alert_cautionCaution

Note that TRSChartValue descendant classes expose properties, such as X and Y, which are safer to access the specific dimension of the value. You should not count on a specific dimension index to contain a specific property

public property

Values[Integer]

Returns the value for the dimension in the chart value. A chart value, depending on the chart type, can contain 1 or more dimensional values that define the chart value.

For example, each chart value in a bar chart contains 1 value (defining the height of the bar), line chart values contains 2 dimensions: X and Y, and shape chart values contain 4 dimensions: X, Y, Width, and Height.

Use the Values property to access each dimension in the chart value. The Value property in comparison returns the main (or only) dimension in a chart value - which dimension is returned is based on the chart type.

alert_cautionCaution

Note that TRSChartValue descendant classes expose properties, such as X and Y, which are safer to access the specific dimension of the value. You should not count on a specific dimension index to contain a specific property

 
 
The ValueCount will equal the DimensionCount of the collection.
 
 

published property

Visible

Determines whether the chart value is visible or not. Use the Visible property to change the visibility of the chart value. Even if the Visible property is True, the chart value may still not be visible if the chart axis is zoomed. (Inherited from RSChartPanel.TRSChartValue.)

published property

Width

The Height and   Width properties specify the size of the path shape. Set Height or Width to change the size of the path shape. Using the X, Y, Width and Height properties, you specify the exact rectangle where the path shape will be drawn.
 

published property

X

Represents property X. (Inherited from RSCharts.TRS2DChartValue.)

published property

XAsDateTime

Represents property XAsDateTime. (Inherited from RSCharts.TRS2DChartValue.)

published property

Y

Represents property Y. (Inherited from RSCharts.TRS2DChartValue.)

published property

YAsDateTime

Represents property YAsDateTime. (Inherited from RSCharts.TRS2DChartValue.)

protected property

Z

Provide access to the third dimension of the   Values property formatted as a TDateTime. The   XAsDateTime,   YAsDateTime, and   ZAsDateTime properties provide access to the first three dimensions of the Values property formatted as a TDateTime

alert_noteNotes to Inheritors

These properties have protected visibility in the class, but descendant classes (e.g., RSCharts|TRS2DChartValue and TRS3DChartvalue ) publish the properties to provide more explanatory access to the dimensions of the Values property.

Remember to also publish the       X, Y, and Z properties

protected property

ZAsDateTime

Provide access to the third dimension of the     Values property. The     X, Y, and     Z properties provide access to the first three dimensions of the Values property.

Use the X, Y, and Z property to access the coordinates of a point.

alert_noteNotes to Inheritors

These properties have protected visibility in the class, but descendant classes (e.g., RSCharts|TRS2DChartValue and TRS3DChartvalue ) publish the properties to provide more explanatory access to the dimensions of the Values property.

Remember to also publish the       XAsDateTime,       YAsDateTime, and       ZAsDateTime properties
