Hello Martin,

If Dolphi supports ActiveX controls then there's TeeChart Pro v7
ActiveX:

Hello Narcís.

Yes, I played a little with the activex trial version, and it looks really
cool.
I was hoping I could find some wrapper which already integrates the chart
control with Dolphin's MVP framework, and perhaps learn how to use the
control from there. However, the documentation you provide is quite complete
and was more than enough to make my first charts (and smalltalk ambient
makes it very very very simple to try things out and learn by
experimentation).

Thanks for your answer.
best regards
martin

We use TeeChart extensively in our Alchemetrics work (see
www.alchemetrics.org). Our wrapper is built mainly by the Active-X Typelib
Wizard, but we do have a pretty lightweight presenter for it that implements
the graphing we typically do and a similarly lightweight TeeChartView
subclass of AXControlSite.

As Martin says, its a lot of fun playing with great AX controls like this
from Smalltalk!

Regards

Blair

I don't know if I understand the question correctly, so forgive if I'm not.

I didn't do anything fancy with the control, only wrapped it in a
AXControlSite subclass, as Blair pointed out. Since I never did that before,
I followed a tutorial that (I think) used to be in http://svane.swiki.net/,
but seems to be gone (and can't even find the cached page in google).
However, I have a copy in my disk.
Once it was wrapped, the only thing i did was to create a
"TeeChartWorkspace" presenter, which has a workspace on its left, and chart
on its right, so I could play with the control at will. I could have used
the ActiveX Control Browser for this, but it makes me feel a little more
comfortable.
Anyway, I just created wrappers for the control, but if you still want the
package, let me know.

regards
martin

Hello.
Is this lightweight presenter, or part of it, included in Dolphin 6 ? Not
that I'm saying it should, just checking :)

Hi Martin, Blair,

many thanks fo the answers.

Yes, exactly that was the target of my question. Now I can also
experiment with it.

I also have downloaded Mikael's articles long time ago, I think it was
the DolphinActiveXPattern.htm on his wiki, so I can follow it too.

If he allows, maybe it would be good to put ti onto the dolhinmap.net,
it would be useful for others too.

Thanks again,
Janos
