adding new QChart in a QChartView

Hello. I'm trying to redraw chart with a new data and delete previous chart.
So here is my code.

Code:

---

QChart *oldSignalData = signalView->chart();
 
    signalData = new QChart();
    signalData->legend()->hide();
    signalData->addSeries(signalSamples);
    signalData->createDefaultAxes();
    signalData->setTitle(comboTests->currentText());
    signalView->setChart(signalData);
 
    if(NULL != oldSignalData){
       delete oldSignalData;
    }

---

But when i putting a new QChart on a same QChartView - it fails with a message "Can not find axis on the chart."
This code works fine if i comment "delete oldSignalData;" string, but it causes memory leaks. What is the correct
way to delete previous chart and do not crush QChartView? Thanks.
Qt version - 5.8.0.

I know its an old thread but I am having the same problem. Also using basically the same code.

The error is likely because the view needs the event loop to run so it can clean up things from the old chart and initialize from the new one. But by calling delete on the old chart instance, you pull the rug out from under it.

Try replacing "delete oldSignalData" with "oldSignalData->deleteLater()". This will result in the old instance being deleted, but not until the event loop has had a chance to run.
