Adding a button to chart background

[swcooke]

I am looking for an example of how to modify a setting on the property grid when a user clicks on a shape I have drawn on the canvas. I saw this example which deals more with adding a button to the toolbar:

However, I am trying to draw a button or shape on the canvas itself that, when clicked, performs some change to a property grid setting. Any direction would be appreciated.

Hello swcooke,

Not all properties can be set.

The z-order specifically would be set with SetZOrder().
Below is a public link to the help guide.

Many (not all) chart properties can be set in the ChartControl.Properties collection.
Below is a public link to the help guide on ChartControl.Properties.

What specifically are you trying to set?
