Thanks. My goal is not to slow down questions, but rather to accelerate answers. I want everyone writing custom charts, and right now it feels like it's too hard for people. But you're right, the samples I posted are just meant to be 'suggestive' of what could be done. Not necessarily actual, usable implementations (i.e., the close box). FWIW, you can close the comment by clicking the marker again. Ely.

Nice examples Ely. You are a charting magician. A couple of small comments: 1. In the Basic Drawing API. If I move the right slider and then increment the Top spin edit box, it pops an error. 2. The comment screen is great but there is no close box. While I think it is great that you are providing these examples, I can see it generating even more questions (what I think your trying to slow down). Just the comment stuff alone, I can think of 10+ variations on what someone would want. Great work. --- In [email protected] <mailto:flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com> , "Ely Greenfield" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > Someone pointed out to me that I stupidly had left the post password > protected.
