Syntax 3 For the fill pattern of a series

Description

Obtains the fill pattern of a series in a graph.

Applies to

PowerBuilder DataWindow

DataWindow control

Syntax

PowerBuilder

integer dwcontrol.GetSeriesStyle ( string graphcontrol, string seriesname, REF FillPattern fillvariable )

Argument

Description

dwcontrol

A reference to the DataWindow control containing the graph.

graphcontrol

A string whose value is the name of the graph in the DataWindow control.

seriesname

A string whose value is the name of the series for which you want the style information.

fillvariable

In PowerBuilder, a variable of type FillPattern in which you want to store the fill pattern value. For a list of values, see FillPattern.


Return value

Returns 1 if it succeeds and -1 if an error occurs. In PowerBuilder, stores in fillvariable identifying the fill pattern for the specified series. If any argument's value is null, GetSeriesStyle returns null.

Examples

This example stores in the variable data_pattern the fill pattern for the series under the pointer in the graph gr_depts in the DataWindow control dw_employees. It then sets the fill pattern for the series Total Salary in the graph gr_dept_data to that pattern:

string SeriesName
integer SeriesNbr, Data_Point
FillPattern data_pattern
grObjectType MouseHit
 
MouseHit = dw_employees.ObjectAtPointer("gr_depts" , &
      SeriesNbr, Data_Point)
 
IF MouseHit = TypeSeries! THEN
      SeriesName = &
         dw_employees.SeriesName("gr_depts" , SeriesNbr)
 
      dw_employees.GetSeriesStyle("gr_depts" , &
         SeriesName, data_pattern)
 
      gr_dept_data.SetSeriesStyle("Total Salary", &
         data_pattern)
END IF
