Set a background graph for a strip chart

Solved!
Go to solution

Hi,

Is there anyway to set a background graph on a strip chart? I tried to set the graph to be transparent,

but it always covers the chart if I put it on.

Thanks

You should probably so the opposite: paint the strip chart in transparent and don't show the border area, next place it on top of the graph. Additionally, you should hide both labels and grid on the strip chart axes, and dimensio it so that the plot area exactly matches the one of the graph.

Sorry, it should be a picture over strip chart, can I do load a picture as background on a strip chart?

Thanks

You should be more clear in  your requirements: an image is quite a different beast from a graph!

 

Having said this,  the principle can be the same: a transparent strip chart on top of a picture control with your image.

If this is not what you want please be very specific in your question: perhaps a sample picture of desired final result can explain the situation better.
