Got past those errors, but it seems there is some pathing needed still...I have sent you the log output file since it is very long.

Hello,

The log ends with:
Compiling C:\lazarus\components\ideintf\idewindowintf.pas
idewindowintf.pas(26,3) Fatal: Can't find unit IDEOptionsIntf used by IDEWindowIntf
Fatal: Compilation aborted
Error: C:\lazarus\fpc\3.2.2\bin\x86_64-win64\ppcx64.exe returned an error exitcode
I also saw that error and didn't find how to fix it yet.
In the meanwhile, I could open the teechart.lpk package and compile and install it from the IDE.

Could you please give it a try?

Sorry for the inconvenience generated.

Hello,

I see the error in "Tree mode". We'll investigate what's wrong.
Meanwhile, please open the "options" and uncheck it.

When doing so I can get a little further but upon choosing an item from the gallery it stops with...

Hello,

At TeeGally.pas, find the TTeeGallery.SwitchAlternate procedure and modify this line:

Code: Select all

      ChartListBox1.Sorted:=True;
For this:

Code: Select all

      {$IFNDEF LCL}
      ChartListBox1.Sorted:=True;
      {$ENDIF}
And rebuild the package.
I'm sorry for the inconveniences.

Hello again,

The above could be considered as a fast workaround.
I've just implemented the definitive fix (I hope so) for #2578.

The fix consists on adding a couple of lines of code at TTeeGallery.CreateChartList, in TeeGally.pas unit, setting Sorted:=False befode updating the ChartListBox1 and restoring it at the end:

Code: Select all

Procedure TTeeGallery.CreateChartList(Const APage:String);      
//...
  ChartListBox1.Items.BeginUpdate;
  ChartListBox1.Sorted:=False;
  try
  //...
  finally
    ChartListBox1.Sorted:=AlternateStyle;
    ChartListBox1.Items.EndUpdate;
  end;
end;

That got rid of the sort error, but things are odd.
If you choose something from the series gallery the associated code is not generated and if you do too much in the gallery it crashes.
Here are some screenshots...

Also, I have tried to use without the Gallery with this test...

pssdw

Code: Select all

uses
  Classes, SysUtils, Forms, Controls, ExtCtrls, Graphics, Dialogs, StdCtrls,
  TeEngine, Chart, TeeGDIPlus, Series, TeeProcs;

type

  { TForm1 }

  TForm1 = class(TForm)
    Chart1: TChart;
    Series1: TLineSeries;
    procedure FormShow(Sender: TObject);
  private
  public

  end;

var
  Form1: TForm1;

implementation

{$R *.lfm}

{ TForm1 }

procedure TForm1.FormShow(Sender: TObject);
begin
  Series1.FillSampleValues(50);
end;
