Surface chart (6 version)

There was a possibility to build a 6 version on the same graph(Surface) two intersecting surfaces?

Hi Sergey, Unluckily, ChartDirector does not support surface charts with multiple intersecting surfaces. Regards Peter Kwan

Hi Michael,

You can always combine multiple charts together by just putting one chart in front of another chart. This works as long as you are sure one surface is always in front of another surface on the screen.

To do this:

(a) Draw the first surface chart with the bottom surface.

(b) Draw another surface chart with the top surface. This chart needs to have the background set the transparent and hide all 3 walls, so it is just the surface.

(c) Use a MultiChart to combine these two charts.

I have attached an image showing a chart created using the above method. It consists of two surfaces, with the bottom surface being almost flat.

Regards
Peter Kwan

Hi Peter,

Thanks for the advice. I am using 2 surface chart in same view. I applied your suggestions, and now I can see both surfaces. However, these 2 surfaces' x-y axis are same but z axis is different. In Z axis values, I should show numbers from min to max. However it only shows the first chart's numbers. How can I changed them? I have already tried setLinearScale() method.

my code ;
////

        c_bottom->setSurfaceAxisGrid(Chart::Bottom);
        c_top->setSurfaceAxisGrid(Chart::Top);
        c_top->setBackground(Chart::Transparent);
        c_top->setWallVisibility(false,false,false);

        c_bottom->zAxis()->setLinearScale(0.08,0.36);

        m->addChart(0,0,c_bottom);
        m->addChart(0,0,c_top);

////

z axis of c_bottom data range is between 0.08 to 0.26.
z axis of c_top data range is between 0.24 to 0.36.

The chart only shows c_bottom data range in z axis.

How can I show them between 0.08 to 0.36 both in z axis and colorAxis? Is there any posibility?

Hello again, I found the solution. If I set the linear scale after creating chart, it works well. Probably some operations before setting scale broke it. Thanks,
