Type Library
TeeChartx

Description
TeeChart Unicode version only.</sup>

^{Codes input text to UTF8 format for internal TeeChart use. Could be used to prepare input text to be stored in ascii format for later rendering as Unicode characters.}

^{TeeChart tags UTF8 strings with the prefix: "@U#". The addPrefix parameter when true adds the prefix to the generated string.}

^Example

^{Dim strings}

^{'generate UTF strings. Typically strings stored in this way would be from non-latin}

^{'charactersets not supported on all Windows machines.}

^{TChart1.Environment.CodeUTF8String("evening", True), _}
