OK, now we go into the domain of personal insults.

Not that again! Just remove the f*ck*** call to Close and be done with it.

Hear hear! I doubt that very much.

You could try to rename the DLLs. I'm not sure whether this will work though. And if it works, it will only do so for DLLs that are used by your program directly, not for DLLs that are loaded by other DLLs your program uses.

Instead of setting a unique name, you can set it to an empty string. And what you show in the screen shot is not the memo's name but the memo's Lines property contents. You can set that easily to whatever you want either. Memo.Lines.Text := 'bla blub'; But that's not what was meant when you were told use frames: Just design a frame the way you want it, and create multiple instances of that particular frame class.

Unfortunately, I'm not morally depraved enough for that.

Unfortunately this is basically the same hack as with empty TPointSeries, just made invisible with a different method.

Yes, but then I couldn't have claimed I use AI for that. 😉

To be fair, I asked ChatGPT to generate faulty Delphi code to begin with and it not only gave that code but also immediately explained what is wrong with it and how to fix it. Just that the fix still was wrong.

Adding two empty point series, one associated with each axis, and not shown in the legend, does the trick. This still feels too much like a hack. So if anybody else has an idea... ? I used to have an account for Steema's support forum, but my credentials don't seem to work any more.

Interesting idea, but unfortunately it doesn't work either. I also tried to just set them visible unconditionally and tried the BeforeDrawAxes event.

Invisible point? You mean a point series, that is visible but does no contain any data? Or one that contains data but is set to be drawn invisibly? I thought about that, but I was really hoping that I am just missing some setting.

Today I have - for the first time - used ChatGPT and then Claude in earnest. Everything before that was just testing. Actually I didn't expect this time to be of much help either, but it turned out that it was helpful up to a point. I have now got some code to give a the guy who applies for a Delphi position today to refactor, debug and explain. And then explain what's wrong with the "fixed" version of the code generated by ChatGPT. That's going to be interesting.

I am using TeeChart for drawing multiple series with two different vertical axis. One set of series uses the left axis, the others use the right axis. The legend contains check boxes that allow the user to turn a series on and off. Everything works fine but there is one small problem that I can't get solved: When all series associated with one of the axis are turned off, this axis is not shown. Right Axis missing: Left axis missing: I don't want that. Both axes should always be shown, regardless of which series are visible. But I found no way to change this behavior. Any hint?

Just in case anybody else is interested: I have just updated the Rename Component expert to use a TCombobox instead of a TEdit for Boolean and Enum properties.
