gbChartMaster - Discussion

[Gary Beene]

Hey Michael,
Just looked at your code. I apparently didn't take a closer look at it when you posted the first time.

And yes, the jumping in your graph size is what I saw with my earlier code as well. The huge advantage of letting it jump is that when you're ready to use the chart, it looks better when there are many bars close together. Whereas avoiding the jumping and trying to get smoother resizing is more of a feel-good for the user while playing with the application.

When bar count is small or the dialog is very wide, the differences become less important.

I may revisit my code to allow the option to choose either approach.

Gary,
The reason for pyramids is because the "investment pyramid" is used in several financial planning certification courses and some financial advisers then decide to use it in their presentations. It's the old story... give 'em what they want.

Here's my current gbChartMaster GoDo List:
Creating a DLL is the primary thing I want to try in the next release. The other items on the list matter, but are secondary to the DLL.

Hi Gary,

Can you tell me where I can download the latest version of gbChartMaster ? is a DLL available ?

Thanks,
Jean-Pierre

[Gary Beene]

Howdy, Jean-Pierre!

You can download it here - http://www.garybeene.com/sw/gbchartmaster.htm

There is no DLL. I separated the charting source code into an INC file, however, to make it easier to use in a PowerBASIC app.

I once intended to create a DLL, but other tasks took my attention away!

[Darrell Price]

Working for me...

[Francisco Castanedo]

Hi Darrel, aan you copy and paste the URL to the download? This is not working: "http://www.garybeene.com/files/gbchartmaster.zip"

[Gary Beene]

Should work now ... give it a try.

I think what happened was that I'd deleted the zip file, as part of putting up a new one - then got distracted. I just reloaded it.

[Francisco Castanedo]

Thanks Gary. It works now.

I loved the "got distracted" phrase!. I know how we all get distracted at this age!!!!

I got it, thanks a lot Gary.

[Gary Beene]

As always please let me know if there are any problems.

[Gary Beene]

Stuart/Tim,
Here's the discussion thread for gbChartMaster. I'll be away for several hours - will post another example then. I'll try do one with the DLL and another with the INC.

[Tim Lakinir]

Thanks Gary
when I tried to download the program from https://www.garybeene.com/sw/gbchartmaster.htm
your website shows it is version 1.0 ? Is there a latest version?

[Gary Beene]

Howdy, Tim!

When you downloaded and unzipped the file, what version did the EXE show? Should have been 2.0.

I changed the web site to say 2.0.

[Tim Lakinir]

Thanks Sir Gary, it is version 2

[Tim Lakinir]

Hi Gary, can you please provide a simple example code to do an XY graph that can plot random points and jointing them up as well a trend line?
This gbchartmaster is too complicated, all help is appreciated. Thanks

[Gary Beene]

Howdy, Tim!

Without using gbChartMaster? Ouch, my feelings are hurt!

I'll be away for most of the day - will help out when I get back.

[Jules Marchildon]

Tim, are you looking for code to make an X-Y Scatterplot with a linear regression line?
