Re: No new components after install

Hello,

Let me try to recap the steps I'm suggesting:
After installing TeeChart Pro VCL/FMX with sources (TeeChartVCLFMXSOURCE-2022.35.exe), you should be able to find TeeRecompile in the installation folder.
If you select at least Win32 platform for RAD 11.1 Alexandria in TeeRecompile and you build the sources you should get something like this:

Open the IDE check the components are installed:

And add the "Source/FMX" path to the library path in the linux platform:

Now you should be able to drag a TChart component to the form in an FMX application, with Win32 platform selected:

And then, you should be able to switch to the linux platform (if you have FMXLinux and the profile and the SDK correctly set in the IDE), and run the project:

If someone could tell me how to make a chart created at runtime become a 2-D point chart, programmatically at run time, I could make some progress !

I had been using the refresh button to see if anyone had replied. I saw nothing for a couple of weeks. Just now after posting my last plea for help, suddenly several things appeared. So I will be looking at this new information now. Thank you for your help.

Hi,

Thank you for the information. I can use this for new projects.

The thing is that I have a well developed program that I have spent a lot of time on, that was FMX Delphi for Windows and had an FMX TChart Lite on it. I removed the TChart Lite and got TChartPro with Source code working on it. Now the chart appears at runtime. I need to make it become a 2-D point chart. I have the runtime code to add a series. All the stuff that adds points to the chart is already in it and ready to go. This program is to be a template for other programs i will write that use a chart to display and record intermnet pinging times. This is why I put a TChart Pro in it first. The program was fully functional in Windows. But when it came time to compile it for Linux, it wouldn't because the FMXTChart lite is not compatible with Linux. So it would be really good to get the TChartPro working in this program.
I have a second FMX program that is also well developed which I will need to add a TChart Pro to for Linux. It is to be the FMX Linux prototype for programs i write which use a terminal to communicate with Arduino sensor projects that run on Linux.

Is there a way to apply what you have told me to an existing program that has been compiled for Windows and Linux ?
Or is there a way to get these settings from an existing FMX Windows program and apply them to the TChartPro in an existing program ?

Hello

The same principal applies. Moving and compiling the existing win32 application to the latest version of the TeeChart FMX source (prepared with TeeRecompile) will allow you to then reference that source for the Linux execution.
