Introduction

TeeChart for FireMonkey offers a comprehensive suite of cross-platform charting samples that leverage the FireMonkey (FMX) UI framework. These samples demonstrate how to create stunning, responsive charts that work seamlessly across Windows, macOS, iOS, and Android platforms.
FireMonkey’s cross-platform capabilities mean you can write your charting code once and deploy it to multiple platforms with minimal platform-specific adjustments.

​
Sample Categories

The FMX samples are organized into several key categories:

Standard Series

Explore fundamental chart types including Lines, Bars, Areas, Pies, Points, and more

Animations

Dynamic chart animations and transitions for engaging data visualization

Dashboard

Complex dashboard examples with multiple interactive charts and data integration

Cross-Platform

Platform-specific implementations and responsive design patterns

​
Key Features

​
Cross-Platform Compatibility

All FMX samples are designed to run on:
  • Windows - Desktop applications with full feature support
  • macOS - Native macOS applications
  • iOS - iPhone and iPad applications
  • Android - Mobile and tablet applications

​
Responsive Scaling

One of TeeChart FMX’s major advantages is automatic scaling to fit any screen size. Whether you’re building dashboards with multiple charts or single-chart views, FireMonkey handles platform variations automatically.

​

​
Getting Started

​
Requirements

To run these samples, you’ll need:

​
Opening a Sample

  1. Navigate to the desired sample directory
  2. Open the .dpr project file in Delphi
  3. Select your target platform (Windows, macOS, iOS, Android)
  4. Compile and run
Many samples include platform-specific form files (.fmx) optimized for different screen sizes and devices.

​
Common FMX Patterns

​
Basic Chart Setup

uses
  FMXTee.Engine, FMXTee.Series, FMXTee.Procs, FMXTee.Chart;

procedure TForm1.FormCreate(Sender: TObject);
begin
  // Create and add a series
  Series1.FillSampleValues();
  
  // Configure chart appearance
  Chart1.View3D := False;
  Chart1.Hover.Visible := False;
end;

​
Platform-Specific Code

Use conditional compilation for platform-specific features: 
{$IFDEF IOS}
  Chart1.Legend.Font.Size := 10;
{$ENDIF}

{$IF DEFINED(iOS) or DEFINED(ANDROID)}
  DonutSeries.Marks.Visible := False;
{$ENDIF}

{$IFDEF MACOS}
  Layout4.Height := 192;
{$ELSE}
  Layout4.Height := 256;
{$ENDIF}
