Gigasoft.ProEssentials.Pe3do.PePlot.Option Members

AddSkirts

This property controls whether 3D surface plots will contain extra polygons forming sides to the surface. When Plot.PolyMode is set to PolygonData, if the polygon data forms an enclosed surface, this property should be set to TRUE.

AllowDataLabels

Gets and Sets the type of data-point labels placed next to data-points. Depending upon setting, you may also need to set Strings.PointLabels, or Strings.DataPointLabels.

Clipping

Gets and Sets whether plotting method graphic commands are clipped to within the axis in which they reside. Set this property to False to disable clipping. Manually scaling and zooming can both cause plotting graphics to extend outside its axis.

DegreePrompting

Gets and Sets whether user has ability of selecting the Pixel Surface plotting method within the customization dialog and popup menu.

DxFitControlShape

For Direct3D RenderEngine setting. Default True means the chart's 3D scene fills the control's shape. Setting False will result in maintaining a square cube scene, or as defined by GridAspectX, GridAspectY, GridAspectZ.

DxFarFOV

For Direct3D RenderEngine setting, this property sets a viewing frustum far plane distance. Probably never needs adjusting.

DxNearFOV

For Direct3D RenderEngine setting, this property sets the viewing frustum near plane distance. Setting to 1.0 can create a data slicing effect when zooming inward.

DxViewportX

For Direct3D RenderEngine setting, this property sets a translational X distance, shifting the image left or right within the visible viewport. With DegreePrompting set to True, the chart will display the DxViewportX amount while using the mouse to shift image. This can help determine a programmatic value for desired scene.

DxViewportY

For Direct3D RenderEngine setting, this property sets a translational Y distance, shifting the image up or down within the visible viewport. With DegreePrompting set to True, the chart will display the DxViewportY amount while using the mouse to shift image. This can help determine a programmatic value for desired scene.

DxZoom

For Direct3D RenderEngine setting, this property sets a viewing distance factor for the 3D image. With DegreePrompting set to True, the chart will display the DxZoom amount while using the mouse to zoom. This can help determine a programmatic value for desired scene.

FixedLineThickness

Gets and Sets whether line thickness is independent of image size. This property works with solid line types produced when Plot.Method is set to Line.

GraphDataLabels

This property controls whether data labels are placed next to data points. The type of labels is defined by Plot.Options.AllowDataLabels.

LineSymbolThickness

For non Direct3D rendeing, controls thickness for all non solid points (cross, dash, non solid dot, etc) for PePlot.Method set to Point. Pixel units are for images less than 3300 pixels in size else thickness scales larger. 1 = 1 pixel 2 = 2 pixels 3 and higer = multiples of a thin line logical unit unit.

ManualContourLine

Gets and Sets the density of contour lines/colors when Plot.Option.ShowContour is set to produce contours. If zero (default), then contour line density is automatically determined.

ManualContourMax

Gets and Sets the maximum contour range. Setting this value also depends on setting ManualContourScaleControl.

ManualContourMin

Gets and Sets the minimum contour range. Setting this value also depends on setting ManualContourScaleControl.

ManualContourScaleControl

Gets and Sets control of the range of the graphs contour lines. Use ManualContourMin and ManualContourMax to define range. When using this property, it is likely you will also want to set Plot.Option.ManualContourLine.

NegativeFromXAxis

Gets and Sets whether negative Bar, Area, and Stick plotting method graphics get drawn from the x axis or from bottom of chart.

PointGradientStyle

Gets or Sets the gradient style for point plotting methods. For non Direct3D rendering.

RotationDetail

Gets or Sets the amount of detail included in image while UI.AutoRotation = True.

ShadingStyle

Gets or Sets the shading style of 3D polygons.

ShowBoundingBox

Gets or Sets whether a 2D contour is included in image.

ShowContour

Gets or Sets whether a 2D contour is included in image.

SubsetPointSizes

If only one element is defined, controls all subset point sizes globally by this amount, else, each subset index can be assigned a point size factor. For example, setting to 2.0 will produce point sizes twice as large.

SurfacePolygonBorders

This property controls whether polygons will show borders when Plot.PlottingMethod is set to Surface with Shading.

SymbolFrequency

Gets or Sets the frequency of symbols placed into plotting methods when Color.ViewingStyle = MonoWithSymbols.

TriangleAnnotationAdj

This property controls how triangle data symbols are located. If True, triangles are located so their vertex is at the y data value. This allows up-triangle and down-triangle symbols to work as pointers and point to the location defined by the y data value. If False, symbols are centered at the y data location.

ZDistance

Gets and Sets the viewing distance from the 3D image. This value can be tweaked by a few units if axis labels are being truncated. Default is -25.0.
