HI,

When attempting to edit a graph from the Graph properties -> Graph types the message below appears:

"Graph Editor does not support new graph engine functionality. Using the editor while new graph engine is enabled may cause
compatibility issues. It is recommended that you set graph engine to old"

Could anyone explain this error
Thanks
Gabriel

Use the search facility on this forum and search for Graph Editor. There is already some info out there.

There is a command..that may solve your problem.
SET GRAPHENGINE = OLD

Goes at the beginning of your program. Since the version you are on has a new graph engine...whatever you are trying to do is supported on the old graph engine.

Good Luck

Greetings,

We indroduced a new Graph Engine in Release 5.3. This was done to provide higher output quality and additional functionality. The new graph engine uses the Java2D class library where the older version used AWT classes. The Graph Editor only supports the old graph engine.

Setting GRAPHENGINE to OLD will mean that the output produced will be lower quality (it will look like it did in Release 5.2 and earlier) and certain API calls will yield errors or fail to have any effect. This is the case because there are many new APIs that were added in the new graph engine.

We are currently developing a new Graph Editor that will resolve this issue, but until it is available any graph that uses any of the new APIs must be customized manually in the code.

If you require further detail, please let me know.

Larry
