CHAPTER 15 Working with Graphs
DataWindow Designer User’s Guide 441
Specifying the type of
graph
You can change the graph type at any time in the development environment.
(To change the type at runtime, modify a graph's GraphType property.)
❖ To specify the graph type:
• On the General properties page for the graph, select a graph type from the
Graph Type drop-down list.
Using legends
A legend provides a key to your graph's series.
❖ To include a legend for a series in a graph:
• On the General properties page for the graph, specify where you want the
legend to appear by selecting a value in the Legend drop-down list.
For information on specifying text properties for the legend, see “Specifying
text properties for titles, labels, axes, and legends” on page 442.
Specifying a border
For a graph control in a DataWindow object, you can specify the border that
DataWindow Designer places around a graph.
❖ To specify a border for a graph:
• On the General properties page for the graph, select the type of border to
use from the Border drop-down list.
Specifying point of
view in 3D graphs
If you are defining a 3D graph, you can specify the point of view that
DataWindow Designer uses when displaying the graph.
❖ To specify a 3D graph's point of view:
1 On the General properties page for the graph, adjust the point of view
along the three dimensions of the graph:
• To change the perspective, move the Perspective slider.
• To rotate the graph, move the Rotation slider.
• To change the elevation, move the Elevation slider.
2 Define the depth of the graph (the percent the depth is of the width of the
graph) by using the Depth slider.
