the attachment contains the images and the small program that show the errors

when I try to use Point Image series the editor accept it as you can see in atteched picture PointImageError0. When I start the very simple application attached it returns the error shown in attached PointImageError1. If I stop the program and I try again the designer it returns the error shown in PointImageError2 even if I close Visual Studio and I start it again

I am using the last version of Steema 4.2023.2.13 and .NET6 as you can see from the csproj file

screenshot of working PointImage series in .NET 6.0

Using the following code against Steema.TeeChart.NET v.4.2023.2.13 in .NET 6.0 for Windows Forms:

        private void InitializeChart2()
        {
            var points = new ImagePoint(tChart1.Chart);

            var path = @"C:\Users\Chris\Documents\es.png";
            points.PointImage = TImage.FromFile(path);
            points.Pointer.HorizSize = 11;
            points.Pointer.VertSize = 6;
            points.FillSampleValues();
        }

I obtain the screenshot attached.

We will fix the issue at designtime in an upcoming release.
Comment 4 Luigi Casalegno 2023-02-14 08:43:41 EST 
Thank you very much. Where can I find the default image you use in the designer? We are using that one and porting the application in .NET 6 we do not want to change

Default image

The default image for ImagePoint is a resource of the TeeChart.WinForm.dll assembly, and as such it will render when no other image is defined, e.g.

       private void InitializeChart2()
        {
            tChart1.Series.Add(typeof(ImagePoint)).FillSampleValues();
        }

Gives me this default image.
