Chart Data Markers

Fully implemented BCGControlBar Pro (MFC)

Fully implemented BCGSuite (MFC)

Not available BCGControlBar for .NET

Data Marker formatting includes the following customizable elements:

Visibility
Fill color
Line color, width and stroke style
Shape
Size

Currently Data Markers have the following predefined shapes:

Circle
Box
Triangle
Diamond
Pentagon
Hexagon
Star
Rhombus
Cross

You can customize Data Marker appearance, including shape, size and visibility, for each Data Point separately.

It's possible to completely replace the out-of-the-box Data Marker appearance by overriding some virtual methods in the Chart control.

Sample code:

CBCGPChartVisualObject chart;
CBCGPChartSeries* pSeries1 = chart.CreateSeries(_T("Series 1"));
....

// Change marker shapes:
pSeries1->SetMarkerShape(BCGPChartMarkerOptions::MS_CIRCLE, 0);
pSeries1->SetMarkerShape(BCGPChartMarkerOptions::MS_TRIANGLE, 1);
pSeries1->SetMarkerShape(BCGPChartMarkerOptions::MS_RECTANGLE, 2);
pSeries1->SetMarkerShape(BCGPChartMarkerOptions::MS_RHOMBUS, 3);

// 3-rd marker is red:
pSeries1->SetMarkerFill(CBCGPBrush(CBCGPColor::Red), 2);
