Sounds like your using VCL rather than native api...

Not clear _how_ you're putting your chart on the form...

But, if your using a TImage(->Picture->Bitmap), try putting a TScrollBox on 
the form, and then plop the TImage onto the ScrollBox.  I believe you will 
be able to generate a bitmap larger than either the scrollbox, or chart - 
subject, no doubt to available memory, and/or application address space.
