series used in a graph object embedded inside an spool object

Postby muin.chowdhury » Thu Oct 26, 2017 10:34 am

Hi,

This is what I know about getting the name of the series that are used to create a graph...
graph_objet.@members => produces a string with the series names that were used to create the graph.

Can this be done when the graph object is placed inside an spool object? How?

Thank you,

Muin

Unfortunately not. The copy of the graph added to the spool is disconnected from the series and that information is no longer available.

As a workaround (and not a good one at that), you could eyeball the legend for series names. The problems with this approach are 1)there isn't a programmatic way to do this and b) it assumes the legend hasn't been modified.
