copy msgraph object to gdviwer

Post by JoeFF1 » Fri Nov 30, 2007 3:58 am

I would like to copy an MSGraph chart from one Access form to an image control on another form.

I can copy the chart with:
Forms.myform.mygraph.chartarea.copy
If I paste the clipboard contents into MS Word, the chart looks just like the original so I know the copy operation worked.

When I try to "paste" into the gdviewer object:
object.gdviewer.DisplayFromClipboardData
the graph appears but a portion of the bottom and right side are cut off. This occurs no matter how I adjust the relative size of the graph and image controls, zoom settings, skip image resolution property, etc

I assume the problem occurs because I am copying a graph object rather than an image. If I copy the graph as above, then use "PASTE SPECIAL - picture(windows metafile)" to insert it into a MS Word document as an image, THEN copy that image and FINALLY fill the gdviwer control from the clipboard, everything looks perfect. However, that is obviouly very tedious and I don't want to have to open MS Word.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hi Joe,

Are you using the last edition ?

I can't reproduce this problem.


Else, is it possible to send me your access database to do more tests ?

Regards,

Loïc

I am using version of GDViewer3 downloaded approx 2 wks ago. I am using Access 2000 and 1680 x 1050 widescreen resolution if that makes any difference (I have dozens of other GDViewer objects in same database that work perfectly but this is only one where I am trying to display a graph rather than image file)

I have sent via email relevant portion of my database and a screenshot.

Thank you very much for your help!!!
