SPC chart control design-time configuration

The SPC Chart .NET control has been configured with some of the properties already set. These can be found by selecting the chart and going to the end of the properties list in the group titled Quality management.

• The CharacteristicNameFilter property is a required property at run time and has been pre-configured to pick the last characteristic in the list of defined characteristics. This can be changed at run time or in design time.

• The ChartTitle property has also been entered in design time.

• The PlotPrimaryMeasurements property is turned off initially.

• The ChartType, PointsPerPage, and RefreshRate properties are left at the default values.

All the chart properties for showing the charts and histograms are turned on.

The y-axis range for both the top and bottom charts are set at 0 to 100. These can be changed at run time with the settings beneath the SPC Chart.

If you double-click the chart, a list of data bindings done on the SPC Chart appears. Many of the chart properties are best accessed through the data bindings of the chart so that changes are directly sent to the chart without having to write extra code to handle data types not well understood by System Platform.
