PlotArea Background

[H.Paul]

I got a Codesnip the looks like that :

chsp.Charts(0).PlotArea.Interior.SetTwoColorGradient
c.chGradientDiagonalDown, _
c.chGradientVariantCenter, RGB(55,104,255), "White"

It is possible to get an Jpg, Gif or something into Background instead of
the Two Color Gradient? I'm using OWC11

Thx.

H. Paul,

Try the SetTextured() method of the chInterior object. Here is the
syntax from the help file...

expression.SetTextured(textureFile, TextureFormat, stackUnit,
TexturePlacement)

I haven't used texture files, myself, but this does afford the way to
specify a filename for the background of the interior.

Hope this helps!

Does this method work with older versions of OWC...I think I'm using OWC9 or
10 (how can I tell?)

thanks!

I have found out that:

..Interior.SetTextured ("C:\---LocalServerPath---\image1.jpg")

it is functional.

Hi Chris!

I only have the object model and help file for OWC11. That resource
was passed along to me by a coworker. I'm not sure where to find the
object models for the other versions. You might check the MS site for
that. I have found the OWC11 version to be very helpful.

Hope this helps!
