Hello, When using logarithmic scale is it possible to show "logarithmic grid lines"? If so how can we do this? Please see the attached document of an example of what we are looking for. We have been getting many customer request to display the axis with logarithmic scale using "logarithmic grid lines". If currently this is not possible could you please include it in the MindScape Version 7. Thank you Oscar |

Hi Oscar, This feature is not currently in WPF Elements, but fortunately you will be able to implement this at your end. This can be implemented by creating a control that provides the grid line functionality, and then add an instance of this control to the BackgroundElements collection of a Chart. As you have the source code, this will be quite easy - feel free to copy whatever bits you need from the existing ChartGrid class to help create your own custom grid with the log lines feature. Let me know if you have any questions about implementing this. -Jason Fauchelle |

Hi Jason, We are hesitant to implement such functionality on our end as we have other priority features to do which require alot of work and feel that these basic abilities should be part of the tool. We noticed that some of the other thirdparty control vendors do provide this option including setting initial chart zoom state. We view the implementation of these features on our end as a last resort. Will these feature be available in the near future? If so do you know when? If we have no choice, even with your description above we are not to sure quite how to begin. Is there a small sample you can provide which would get us started in the right direction? Thanks for your help. Oscar |

Hi Oscar, I've added this feature to our backlog, though we've also got a long list of other work to do so it is unknown when we'll be able to add this in. The best example would be to look at the source code of the ChartGrid class. There is also a "Custom foreground element" demo within the Sample explorer which has a very simple example of a custom element. Though this demo may be too simple for what you want. (The process for creating a foreground or background element is the same. The collection that you add it to just specifies whether it is displayed in-front or behind the plot). -Jason Fauchelle |
