Form looks like this. Black rectangle remains from testing phase. All other elements (controls) are handled dynamically. Change of labels positions (top property) define new drawing area(s). During run-time labels are set to visible=false.
How to add Label control in C#?
First, this is method to add one panel.
private void addHistPanel(double[] panelParametri) // dodaj hist panel
{
Panel p = new Panel(); // new panel
p.BackColor = Color.Black; // by default it is black
p.Width = sirinaHistPanel; // sted width
p.Height = Convert.ToInt16(Math.Abs(panelParametri[1])*koefHistVisine()); // set height - po visini do maksimuma
p.Left = lijevaGranicaHist + Convert.ToInt16(panelParametri[0]) * (sirinaHistPanel+razmakHist); // the most left panel
p.BorderStyle = BorderStyle.FixedSingle; // add some fancy line arrond panel
if (panelParametri[1] > 0) { p.Top = middlePodrucjaHist - p.Height; p.BackColor = Color.Green; // set its color if positive
if (p.Top > topGranicaHist) { // za iznad crte // above zero line
if ( iznadGranice < p.Top - topGranicaHist){ // also, we are looking for heighest top
iznadGranice = p.Top - topGranicaHist; // nadji naj iznad
}
}
} // za ispod crte // bellow line - it means negative value
else { p.Top = middlePodrucjaHist; p.BackColor = Color.Red;
if (p.Top + p.Height > downGranicaHist)
{
if (ispodGranice < Math.Abs(p.Top + p.Height - downGranicaHist)) {
ispodGranice = p.Top + p.Height - downGranicaHist;
} // traži najispod also, we are looking for lowest top
}
}
Controls.Add(p); // add panel
}
This is method which adds all panels in the loop:
private void dodajHistPanele(double[,] radni) // two dimensional array has all panel information
{
double[] parametar = new double[2];
for (int i = brStupaca; i >= 0; i--) // for all columns
{
parametar[0] = brStupaca - i; // 0 positive or negative; 1 -panel.height
parametar[1] = radni[i, columnHistogram]; // input for add panel method is one dimensional array with two items
addHistPanel(parametar); // add panel passing array
}
}
Discrete values of Force indexes are shown with small panels. Panel.top(s) are connected with lines called LineShape.
How to add LineShape control in C#?
fi13Lines is two dimensional array which holds about points which should be connected. Actually, these are panel's tops of small rectangles saved in array during p.tops calculation.
void addLineFi13()
{ //ShapeContainer canvaS; // LineShape needs ShapeContainer which we'll call canvaS
canvaS.Parent = this; // add canvaS to form
for (int i = brStupaca; i > 0; i--)
{
LineShape ls = new Microsoft.VisualBasic.PowerPacks.LineShape(); // new LineShape
ls.Parent = canvaS; // belongs to canvaS
ls.BorderWidth = 2; // set how much line is thick
ls.BorderColor = Color.Purple; // set color
ls.StartPoint = new System.Drawing.Point(fi13Lines[i, 0], fi13Lines[i, 1]); // line Star point
ls.EndPoint = new System.Drawing.Point(fi13Lines[i - 1, 0], fi13Lines[i - 1, 1]); // line End point
ls.BringToFront(); // bring it to front - not needed basically
canvaS.BringToFront(); // bring it to front - not needed basically
}
}
