We have imported MSChart as a OMI APP but now battling to get it to draw/show any chart except the chart name I provide. It is like the chart area does not exist.
Is there anyone that has got this working that are willing to share an example.
Any other charting options for OMI will also be welcome.
Thanks!
Hi Mark,
When you state that you have imported MSChart as an OMI App, did you wrap/create that yourself or did you import the Microsoft Windows Forms library, that contains the Chart App?
I can provide some examples, on a scenario where I have tested this, don't know if it applies to your own solution, bit it might be a start =)
There are several other trending options, especially if you start looking into Web Widgets.
You need to start by adding the chart area (Ie on show)
MyContent.Chart1.ChartAreas.Add("Trend");
'Additional chart configuration
MyContent.Chart1.ChartAreas[0].BackColor = intensity1;
MyContent.Chart1.ChartAreas[0].AxisX.LabelAutoFitStyle = System.Windows.Forms.DataVisualization.Charting.LabelAutoFitStyles.None;
MyContent.Chart1.ChartAreas[0].AxisX.LabelStyle.IntervalType = System.Windows.Forms.DataVisualization.Charting.DateTimeIntervalType.Minutes;
MyContent.Chart1.ChartAreas[0].AxisX.LabelStyle.Format = "HH:mm";
MyContent.Chart1.ChartAreas[0].AxisX.LabelStyle.Font = new System.Drawing.Font("Roboto", 7);
MyContent.Chart1.ChartAreas[0].AxisX.LineWidth = 3;
MyContent.Chart1.ChartAreas[0].AxisX.LineColor = fencing;
MyContent.Chart1.ChartAreas[0].AxisX.TitleForeColor = intensity4;
MyContent.Chart1.ChartAreas[0].AxisX.LabelStyle.ForeColor = intensity4;
MyContent.Chart1.ChartAreas[0].AxisX.MajorGrid.LineColor = fencing;
MyContent.Chart1.ChartAreas[0].AxisX.MinorGrid.LineColor = fencing;
MyContent.Chart1.ChartAreas[0].AxisY.LineColor = fencing;
MyContent.Chart1.ChartAreas[0].AxisY.TitleForeColor = intensity4;
MyContent.Chart1.ChartAreas[0].AxisY.LabelStyle.Font = new System.Drawing.Font("Roboto", 7);
MyContent.Chart1.ChartAreas[0].AxisY.LabelStyle.ForeColor = intensity4;
MyContent.Chart1.ChartAreas[0].AxisY.MajorGrid.LineColor = fencing;
MyContent.Chart1.ChartAreas[0].AxisY.MinorGrid.LineColor = fencing;
MyContent.Chart1.ChartAreas[0].AxisY.LabelStyle.Format = "D";
then in your script to add data to chart
MyContent.Chart1.Series.Add("Series1");
MyContent.Chart1.Series[0].ChartArea = MyContent.Chart1.ChartAreas[0].Name;
MyContent.Chart1.Series[0].Color = System.Drawing.Color.FromArgb(255, 0, 122, 204);
MyContent.Chart1.Series[0].ChartType = System.Windows.Forms.DataVisualization.Charting.SeriesChartType.Column;
MyContent.Chart1.Series[0].XAxisType = System.Windows.Forms.DataVisualization.Charting.AxisType.Primary;
MyContent.Chart1.Series[0].YAxisType = System.Windows.Forms.DataVisualization.Charting.AxisType.Primary;
MyContent.Chart1.Series[0].XValueMember = "FromValue";
MyContent.Chart1.Series[0].YValueMembers = "Cnt";
MyContent.Chart1.Series.Add("Series2");
MyContent.Chart1.Series[1].ChartArea = MyContent.Chart1.ChartAreas[0].Name;
MyContent.Chart1.Series[1].Color = System.Drawing.Color.FromArgb(255, 52, 52, 52);
MyContent.Chart1.Series[1].BorderWidth = 2;
MyContent.Chart1.Series[1].ChartType = System.Windows.Forms.DataVisualization.Charting.SeriesChartType.Spline;
MyContent.Chart1.Series[1].XAxisType = System.Windows.Forms.DataVisualization.Charting.AxisType.Primary;
MyContent.Chart1.Series[1].YAxisType = System.Windows.Forms.DataVisualization.Charting.AxisType.Primary;
MyContent.Chart1.Series[1].XValueMember = "FromValue";
MyContent.Chart1.Series[1].YValueMembers = "WeightedNormal";
'In this case data is contained in a dataset.
MyContent.Chart1.DataSource = ds.Tables[0].DefaultView;
MyContent.Chart1.DataBind();
MyContent.Chart1.ChartAreas[0].RecalculateAxesScale();
MyContent.Chart1.ChartAreas[0].AxisY.RoundAxisValues();
