Title: Chart by Sampling X axis properties
Post by: Mvlawn on May 29, 2016, 02:28:04 PM

Where do I change the X axis properties? I am collecting 1 value between 10 and 16 on the Y axis and storing it up to 5760 times. the 5760 is equal to 48 hours in seconds. I would like the Y axis to be displayed as time of day if that is possible.

Try going into the Series properties, then change XValueType to Time, Date, or DateTime

That works Archie but when i view the chart under the design window it displays the correct date/time but when I debug/run it starts with Dec 30, 1899.

I have attached a screen shot of my X axis date and time. I cant seem to find where to adjust it. Currently it starts on the same day that John Thurman patent the motor-driven vacuum cleaner. Not sure what I am missing.

In Solution Explorer, under the AdvancedHMIControls project, right click ChartBySample.vb and select View Code

Go to line 233 and look for this code:

        '* V3.99e - added time option
        If MyBase.Series(index).XValueType = DataVisualization.Charting.ChartValueType.Time Then


Change the .Time to the type that you selected for the XValueType
