Description
Sets the transparency percentage of a series in a DirectX 3D graph (those with 3D rendering).
Note
This function is obsolete. It is supported only for DirectX 3D graph rendering and is retained for backward compatibility. This function is not recommended for new development.
Applies to
Graph controls in windows and user objects, and graphs in DataWindow controls
Syntax
controlname.SetSeriesTransparency ( { graphcontrol, } series, transparency )
|
Argument |
Description |
|---|---|
|
controlname |
The name of the graph in which you want to set a series transparency value, 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 a series transparency value. |
|
series |
The string that identifies the series for which you want to set the transparency value. |
|
transparency |
Integer value for percent transparency. A value of 0 means that the series 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, SetSeriesTransparency returns null.
Usage
SetSeriesTransparency sets the transparency value for a series in any DirectX 3D graph (those with 3D rendering).
Examples
These statements set the transparency percentage to 50% for the clicked series in the graph gr_1 in the DataWindow control dw_employee:
integer SeriesNbr, ItemNbr, TransNbr
string ls_SeriesName
grObjectType clickedtype
// Get the number of the series and datapoint
clickedtype = this.ObjectAtPointer("gr_1", &
SeriesNbr, ItemNbr)
//Get the name of series
ls_SeriesName = dw_employee.SeriesName("gr_1", &
SeriesNbr)
//The following statement sets Transparency to 50%
TransNbr = 50
dw_employee.SetSeriesTransparency("gr_1", &
ls_SeriesName, TransNbr)These statements set the transparency to 50% for the clicked series in the graph gr_employee.
integer SeriesNbr, ItemNbr, TransNbr
string ls_SeriesName
grObjectType clickedtype
clickedtype = gr_employee.ObjectAtPointer( &
SeriesNbr, ItemNbr)
ls_SeriesName = gr_employee.SeriesName(SeriesNbr)
TransNbr = 50
gr_employee.SetSeriesTransparency( &
