Comparison between TAChart and TeeChart Standard

[wp]

I am deeply impressed by the improvements in this version. Particularly I like the new object tree which makes accessing the subcomponents of TChart much easier. Or is this caused by a general change in object inspector since I do not find corresponding comments in your svn modifications?

Thanks for modified demo. Don't care about coloring of the Labelbrush of the stacked bars - that's really not important.

When playing with your demo to find out how you achieved the vertical dividing lines, however, I came across a crash of Lazarus:
- In the object tree, select the bottom axis
- In the object inspector, open the subitems of grid of this axis
- Set Visible to true
- Set Visible to false --> Lazarus crashes after you click somewhere else

is this caused by a general change in object inspector

Yes, r39097 and following.

Unfortunately, the change above also caused a lot of bugs,
including the one you noticed. I have reported them:

Until those are resolved, TAChart will be quite unstable at design-time.

Thanks. So I'll be cautious when updating Lazarus from snapshots during the next days, and from svn I'll use only the TAChart modifications.
