RetrievalOptionsUseAutoCycles

This read-write property controls the aaHistClientTrend control’s default auto-calculation setting for cycle-based data retrieval. This setting applies to all tags in a trend whose retrieval style is set to Style selected at option level.

Syntax

aaHistClientTrend.RetrievalOptionsUseAutoCycles = discrete;

Result = aaHistClientTrend.RetrievalOptionsUseAutoCycles;

Remarks

If this property is set to True, the aaHistClientTrend control automatically calculates the number of cycles for a query based on the width of the chart. For more information, see Cycle Count (X Values over Equal Time Intervals) (wwCycleCount).

If it is set to False, you must specify the number of cycles manually. Use the RetrievalOptionsUseResolution property to specify whether you want to provide a number of cycles or a time interval. Then use the RetrievalOptionsCycleCount property to specify the number of cycles, or the RetrievalOptionsResolution property to specify the time interval.

This property is relevant for all retrieval modes except the following: Delta, Full, and Slope.

The default value is True.
