UltraChart Gannt Chart sometimes doesn't draw points time period is too small
posted

Hi,

Is there a way to force a minimum line size so that all GanttTimeEntry are displayed.  Sometimes I am finding that  as we zoom out entries disappear from the chart.   Ideally we would like to specify that a line of 1 pixel thickness is drawn even if the Start/End period is very small.

How can we do this ?

    You can achieve this by handling the FillSceneGraph event.  In the event handler, find all the Box primitives representing the Gantt Item Time Entries, find only those with a Width of zero, and then add Line primitives to the Scene using the positions of those zero-width boxes.

    private void Ch_FillSceneGraph(object sender, FillSceneGraphEventArgs e)
    {
    IEnumerable<Box> sceneBoxes = e.SceneGraph.OfType<Box>();
    IEnumerable<Box> zeroWidthGanttBoxes = sceneBoxes.Where((box) => box.Chart == ChartType.GanttChart && box.rect.Width == 0);
    IEnumerable<Line> linesToAdd = zeroWidthGanttBoxes.Select((box) => new Line(new Point(box.rect.Left, box.rect.Top), new Point(box.rect.Right, box.rect.Bottom)));
    e.SceneGraph.AddRange(linesToAdd.ToArray());
    }
    By the way, in case you haven't seen it already, Infragistics has a newer Gantt Control which offers a richer user experience:  http://es.infragistics.com/products/windows-forms/charts-gauges/gantt-view
