- Charts can now have background images. There are two new chart control styles: RMC_CTRLSTYLEIMAGE
and RMC_CTRLSTYLEIMAGETILED. See the new property RMCBgImage for detailed information
and in the VB demo project Bars with diff. colors and BgImage (SUB mnBarsImage_Click)
and Donut with image (SUB mnDonut_Click).
- Enhanced functionality of property RMCFile: it
can now take either the name of a *.rmc-file or the content of such a file (i.e. the plain data string).
So you could save for example the data string in your EXE-file or in a resource-file instead of having several
*.rmc-files along with your application. In the Designer you can get either the data string with the complete source for
"playback" (See in the VB demo project Draw chart from data string [SUB mnDatastring_Click]
for an example), or the plain data string for storing it somewhere in your EXE/Resource file.
- Each Single Bar can now have a different color. You can either use the internal color table or set your own
colors. See the BarSeries properties Color, ColorArray,
ColorString and the method SetColorValue. In the
VB demo project see Bars with diff. colors and BgImage (SUB mnBarsImage_Click) for an example.
- Same as with data axes you now can have with label axes an axis text for illustrating the label axis.
See the new property AxisText
- New options for value labels: With Stacked Bars and non-grid based charts (Pie, Donut, Pyramide) you can now
decide, if value labels show the absolute value, the percent value or both. See the new enumaration ValueLabels
and the property ValueLabelOn in the BarSeries and
GridlessSeries.
- XY series can now have value labels too. With the new property ValueLabelOn
you can switch the labels on or off.
- New line style RMC_LINE_CABLE_SHADOW. I also changed the drawing methode of RMC_LINE_CABLE,
if you used this style in one of your charts, you should change the color for the line from a lighter color
to a more darker one (e.g. LightGreen to Green).
- New symbol for line charts and XY charts: RMC_SYMBOL_BULLET and RMC_SYMBOL_BULLET_SMALL.
