void CBCGPChartSeries::SetVirtualMode	(	BOOL	bSet,

		BOOL	bRedraw = TRUE

Enables virtual mode for a series.

Call this method to enable "virtual" mode for a series. In this mode a series does not contain data points. Instead, screen coordinates of the series curve are calculated by a custom pCallback callback method, which is called for each X value that can be currently displayed on the X axis.

The Chart itself takes care of sending X values with a step corresponding to each pixel on the X axis. As a result the series will be drawn as a non-discrete curve according to the formula implemented in the callback:

Note. If dblMinRange is equal to dblMaxRange, the series assumes that the range is not set and uses the current minimum and maximum calculated on the X axis from minimums and maximums of other series. If no other series displayed, you must set the range or call CBCGPChartAxis::SetFixedDisplayRange.

The callback has the following prototype:

typedef CBCGPChartValue (CALLBACK* BCGPCHART_VSERIES_CALLBACK)(double dblXValue, CBCGPChartSeries* pVirtualSeries, LPARAM lp);

If a formula can't calculate a value for the specified dblXValue (for example, log(x) can be calculated only for x > 0), the callback must return an empty value.

Parameters

bSet	TRUE - turn the virtual mode on; FALSE - turn the virtual mode off
pCallBack	A pointer to a custom callback that implements a formula y = f(x).
lParam	User-defined data to pass to the callback.
dblMinRange	Specifies minimum range value.
dblMaxRange	Specifies maximum range value.
bRedraw	Redraws the chart.

The following example illustrates a series in virtual mode that displays on the diagram a formula y = sqrt(x) in range x = [0, 100]:

Copy

CBCGPChartSeries* pSeries = pChart->CreateSeries(_T("Virtual Series"));

pSeries->SetVirtualMode(TRUE, ChartCallbackFunc, NULL, 0, 100);

CBCGPChartValue CALLBACK ChartCallbackFunc(double dblXValue, CBCGPChartSeries* pFormulaSeries, LPARAM lp)

{

CBCGPChartValue valResult;

if (dblXValue > 0)

{

valResult = sqrt(dblXValue);

}

return valResult;

}
