Description
Sets the transparency percentage of a data point in a series in a DirectX 3D graph (those with 3D rendering).
Applies to
Graph controls in windows and user objects, and graphs in DataWindow controls
Syntax
controlname.SetDataTransparency ( { graphcontrol, } seriesnumber, datapoint, transparency )
Argument |
Description |
---|---|
controlname |
The name of the graph in which you want to set data, or the name of the DataWindow control containing the graph. |
graphcontrol (DataWindow control only) |
(Optional) A string whose value is the name of the graph in the DataWindow control in which you want to set the transparency value of a data point. |
seriesnumber |
The number that identifies the series in which you want to set data. |
datapoint |
The number of the data point for which you want to set a transparency value. |
transparency |
Integer value for percent transparency. A value of 0 means that the data point is opaque and a value of 100 means that it is completely transparent. |
Return value
Integer.
Returns 1 if it succeeds and -1 if an error occurs. If any argument's value is null, SetDataTransparency returns null.
Usage
SetDataTransparency sets the transparency value for a data point in any DirectX 3D graph (those with 3D rendering).
Examples
These statements set the transparency percentage to 50% for the clicked data in the graph gr_1 in the DataWindow control dw_employee:
integer SeriesNbr, ItemNbr, TransNbr grObjectType clickedtype // Get the number of the series and datapoint clickedtype = this.ObjectAtPointer("gr_1", & SeriesNbr, ItemNbr) //The following statement sets Transparency to 50% TransNbr = 50 dw_employee.SetDataTransparency("gr_1", & SeriesNbr , ItemNbr, TransNbr)
These statements set the transparency percentage to 50% for the clicked data point in the graph gr_employee.
integer SeriesNbr, ItemNbr, TransNbr grObjectType clickedtype clickedtype = gr_employee.ObjectAtPointer( & SeriesNbr, ItemNbr) TransNbr = 50 gr_employee.SetDataTransparency(SeriesNbr, & ItemNbr, TransNbr)
