Syntax

[PowerBuilder]

integer <span>dwcontrol</span>.<span>GetDataStyle</span> ( string <span>graphcontrol</span>, integer <span>seriesnumber</span>, integer <span>datapointnumber</span>, REF grSymbolType <span>symbolvariable</span> )

1	integer <span>dwcontrol</span>.<span>GetDataStyle</span> ( string <span>graphcontrol</span>, integer <span>seriesnumber</span>, integer <span>datapointnumber</span>, REF grSymbolType <span>symbolvariable</span> )

[Web ActiveX]

number <span>dwcontrol</span>.<span>GetDataStyleSymbol</span> (string <span>graphcontrol</span>, number <span>seriesnumber</span>, number <span>datapointnumber</span> )

1	number <span>dwcontrol</span>.<span>GetDataStyleSymbol</span> (string <span>graphcontrol</span>, number <span>seriesnumber</span>, number <span>datapointnumber</span> )

Argument	Description
dwcontrol	A reference to the DataWindow control containing the graph.
graphcontrol	A string whose value is the name of the graph in the DataWindow control.
seriesnumber	The number of the series in which you want the symbol type of a data point.
datapointnumber	The number of the data point for which you want the symbol type.
symbolvariable	In PowerBuilder, a variable of type grSymbolType in which you want to store the symbol type. In the Web ActiveX, call GetDataStyleSymbolValue to get the value instead of using a reference variable. For a list of values, see grSymbolType.

Return Values

Returns 1 if it succeeds and -1 if an error occurs. Stores,
according to the type of symbolvariable, a
value of that enumerated datatype representing the symbol used for
the specified data point. If any argument’s value is null, GetDataStyle returns
null.

Examples

These statements store the symbol for a data point
in the variable symbol_type. The data point is the sixth
point in the series named in the SingleLineEdit sle_series
in the graph gr_depts in the DataWindow control dw_employees:

integer SeriesNbr

1	integer SeriesNbr

grSymbolType symbol_type

1	grSymbolType symbol_type

// Get the number of the series

1	// Get the number of the series

SeriesNbr = dw_employees.FindSeries("gr_depts", &amp;

1	SeriesNbr = dw_employees.FindSeries("gr_depts", &

        sle_series.Text)

1	sle_series.Text)

// Get the symbol

1	// Get the symbol

dw_employees.<span>GetDataStyle</span>("gr_depts", SeriesNbr, &amp;

1	dw_employees.<span>GetDataStyle</span>("gr_depts", SeriesNbr, &

        6, symbol_type)

1	6, symbol_type)
