I have been asked to show tick marks along the x-axis - is this possible in fusion? I have hunted through the documentation but cannot find a way to show tickmarks along the axis edge. Many thanks Martin

OK, not the answer I was hoping for Are there any that do allow the tickmarks to be included? and if so, what element do you use to switch them on or off. Thanks Martin

Hi Yes, it's MSLine.swf Many thanks Martin

Hi As part of the project i am working on, the need to create and run test on the application includes checks to see that the data output to the fusion chart contains the correct settings and data. I have seen the code to register the javascript, and then use the getXML method to create the Xml, but need to be able to save this string to a file. Has anyone done this, or is there a better way to achieve this? Many thanks Martin

Thanks :cool: Martin

I am having some issues with this xml in that when rendered, the tooltip text is both category labels separated by a comma. This is the original Xml which displays, on hover, 'category name, value'. <chart animation = '0' bgAlpha='0,0' showBorder='0' useRoundEdges='1' setAdaptiveYMin='1' numberScaleValue='1000,1000,1000' numberScaleUnit='K,M,B' caption = '' xAxisName='' yAxisName ='' xAxisMinValue ='0' xAxisMaxValue ='0' yAxisMinValue ='0' yAxisMaxValue ='1000000' showDivLineValues ='1' adjustDiv ='0' numDivLines ='4' decimals='2' showValues='1' showLegend ='0' legendBorderAlpha ='0' legendBgAlpha ='0' legendPosition ='BOTTOM' legendShadow='0' labelDisplay ='WRAP' seriesNameInToolTip='0' > <categories> <category label='Estimated levy 2010/2011'/> <category label='Illustrative levy'/> </categories> <dataset seriesName='Scheme based levy' alpha='100' includeInLegend='1' color='94DB70' showValues='0'> <set value='232000'/> <set value='232000'/> </dataset> <dataset seriesName='Risk based levy' alpha='100' includeInLegend='1' color='70DBDB' showValues='0'> <set value='683599' /> <set value='683599' /> </dataset> <styles> <definition> <style name='myCaptionFont' type='font' font='Verdana' size='16' color='000000' /> <style name='myXAxisTitlesFont' type='font' font='Verdana' size='13' color='000000' bold='0' /> <style name='myYAxisTitlesFont' type='font' font='Verdana' size='13' color='000000' bold='0'/> <style name='myYAxisValues' type='font' font='Verdana' color='000000' bold='0'/> <style name='myDataLabels' type='font' font='Verdana' color='000000' bold='0'/> <style name='myDataValues' type='font' font='Verdana' color='000000' bold='0'/> </definition> <application> <apply toObject='Caption' styles='myCaptionFont' /> <apply toObject='XAxisName' styles='myXAxisTitlesFont' /> <apply toObject='YAxisName' styles='myYAxisTitlesFont' /> <apply toObject='YAXISVALUES' styles='myYAxisValues' /> <apply toObject='DATALABELS' styles='myDataLabels' /> <apply toObject='DATAVALUES' styles='myDataValues'/> </application> </styles> </chart> This is the new code, which displays 'Series Name, Category Name, Value' Can you please tell me which setting (or is it something to do with v3 as opposed to v2) that has caused the change in hover text?

I'm working on a new application, and for ease, have copied code from another Fusion based app I wrote so to my mind, it should work with very little need for changes. This is the Xml that is generated by my application, and I am using the MSLine.swf file to generate the chart - can anyone confirm the Xml I have generated for the chart is OK? <chart animation='1' bgAlpha='0,0' showBorder='0' useRoundEdges='1' setAdaptiveYMin='1' numberScaleValue='1000000,1000' numberScaleUnit='M,B' caption='XYZ Scheme' xAxisName='X Axis' yAxisName='Y Axis' showValues='1' labelDisplay='Wrap'> <categories> <category label='01/03/2005'/> <category label='01/09/2005'/> <category label='01/03/2006'/> <category label='01/09/2006'/> <category label='01/03/2007'/> <category label='01/09/2007'/> <category label='01/03/2008'/> <category label='01/09/2008'/> </categories> <dataset seriesName='Test Series 1' alpha='100' includeInLegend='1' color='5074D1' showValues='0' > <set value='1' tooltext='Test Series 1, 1' link='j-FusionAJAX_NewChart-,0' /> <set value='5.7' tooltext='Test Series 1, 5.7' link='j-FusionAJAX_NewChart-,1' /> <set value='8.6' tooltext='Test Series 1, 8.6' link='j-FusionAJAX_NewChart-,2' /> <set value='10.4' tooltext='Test Series 1, 10.4' link='j-FusionAJAX_NewChart-,3' /> <set value='12' tooltext='Test Series 1, 12' link='j-FusionAJAX_NewChart-,4' /> <set value='21.1' tooltext='Test Series 1, 21.1' link='j-FusionAJAX_NewChart-,5' /> <set value='24.9' tooltext='Test Series 1, 24.9' link='j-FusionAJAX_NewChart-,6' /> <set value='30.6' tooltext='Test Series 1, 30.6' link='j-FusionAJAX_NewChart-,7' /> </dataset> <dataset seriesName='Test Series 2' alpha='100' includeInLegend='1' color='840006' showValues='0' > <set value='2.1' tooltext='Test Series 2, 2.1' link='j-FusionAJAX_NewChart-,0' /> <set value='4.2' tooltext='Test Series 2, 4.2' link='j-FusionAJAX_NewChart-,1' /> <set value='7.9' tooltext='Test Series 2, 7.9' link='j-FusionAJAX_NewChart-,2' /> <set value='11.6' tooltext='Test Series 2, 11.6' link='j-FusionAJAX_NewChart-,3' /> <set value='14.4' tooltext='Test Series 2, 14.4' link='j-FusionAJAX_NewChart-,4' /> <set value='19.8' tooltext='Test Series 2, 19.8' link='j-FusionAJAX_NewChart-,5' /> <set value='22.7' tooltext='Test Series 2, 22.7' link='j-FusionAJAX_NewChart-,6' /> <set value='28.6' tooltext='Test Series 2, 28.6' link='j-FusionAJAX_NewChart-,7' /> </dataset> <styles> <definition> <style name='myCaptionFont' type='font' font='Arial' size='16' color='000000' /> <style name='myXAxisTitlesFont' type='font' font='Arial' size='13' color='000000' bold='0' /> <style name='myYAxisTitlesFont' type='font' font='Arial' size='13' color='000000' bold='0' /> <style name='myYAxisValuesFont' type='font' font='Arial' color='000000' bold='0' /> <style name='myDataLabelsFont' type='font' font='Arial' color='000000' bold='0' /> <style name='myDataValuesFont' type='font' font='Arial' color='000000' bold='0' /> <style name='myToolTipFont' type='font' font='Arial' color='000000' bold='0' /> </definition> <application> <apply toObject='CAPTION' styles='myCaptionFont' /> <apply toObject='XAXISNAME' styles='myXAxisTitlesFont' /> <apply toObject='YAXISNAME' styles='myYAxisTitlesFont' /> <apply toObject='YAXISVALUES' styles='myYAxisValuesFont' /> <apply toObject='DATALABELS' styles='myDataLabelsFont' /> <apply toObject='DATAVALUES' styles='myDataValuesFont' /> <apply toObject='TOOLTIP' styles='myToolTipFont' /> </application> </styles> </chart> What is happening is the code to generate the xml works, and using the dataXml approach, applies it to the page - at this point the progress bar for the page starts to slowly increment, but after 15 minutes is still nowhere near half way. As far as I can tell, no other code behind is being processed. The data is only designed to show a basic chart, and will be replaced with real data at a later date - it is just in the early stages of application development, so there is lots of work to do, but I need to get a basic chart showing on the page, and hoped this would be easy...sadly it appears not in this instance! The application is a .NET3.5, and at the moment there is nothing else on the page except the chartcontainer (I use a panel for this). I'm working in VS 2008 Team System, under win XP Pro (SP3) and IE7 as my browser. Can anyone shed any light oon why this chart does not render as I'd expect? Thanks Martin

OK, I've found the problem - it's to do with the location of the swf file. Frustrating, but it's sorted. Thanks for your help. Martin

OK, thanks - it was a line I was trying to plot, does that make a difference? Is that debug mode on the application or within Fusion? The version of FusionCharts.dll being used is 1.2.2.0. Thanks Martin

OK, thanks.

Thanks. I am using a purchased version of v3, and this is obviously a change from v2. In this instance, the text is too long to display correctly as the chart is quite narrow and tall. I tried with the tooltext attribute, but it seems to ignore the default number formatting - what dispalys by default is, say 68K, but when using the tooltext attribute, it shows the value as 68836. I would expect the formatting to be consistent, and therefore can't use the tooltext unless I format the numbers to match Fusion's format. Any suggestions? Thanks Martin

Hi I have a series of charts that are generated from individual links on a page, and two of these links contain an ampersand in the text. This definitely worked without any problems in the version of Fusion prior to 3, but since we have upgraded out application to use v3, I get an 'Invalid XML Data' message for the two charts that contain the ampersand. I have tried changing it to %26, also & but both cause the same effect. I have supplied my XML below so you can maybe point me at what is wrong with the Xml being used to create my chart. <chart animation="1" bgAlpha="0,0" showBorder="0" useRoundEdges="1"

Thanks Martin

Many apologies - I reviewed the xml, and found some code which replaced % with %25, so %26 became %2526, which was why it did not work. I have fixed this code and am now getting the ampersand as expected and it's all working as i'd expect. Sorry to waste your time, and thanks for your help. Martin

Hi Do you just want the entire XML that is generated? I can't send you a working application, the Xml is the best I can do. If I load the chart Xml into, say, XmlSpy, it tells me the label tag is invalid as it contains an ampersand, which was what I assumed was the problem. This has worked before, and has only shown up since we have upgraded to the latest version of fusion so wondered if something had changed - it would appear that is not the case, so am a bit confused as to why it has stopped working. And it does only not work for the two charts with & in the axis text - the other five charts are fine. Let me know if the XML is sufficient. Thanks Martin

Windows XP Pro, with IE7.

For reference, this is the chart as it displays.

Actually, maybe it's not quite resolved... The chart now renders, which is an improvement but by setting the xaxisname to equal 'D%26B Score', it renders that in the chart as exactly that, not changing the '%26' to '&' as I'd expect. I loaded the XML into another XML program to find if there were any errors, which is why they are all shown encased in " not ', and in answer to your question I am using the dataXML approach. Any suggestions how to display '&' within the axis title text and still have fully formed XML? Thanks Martin

Thank Rahul I just needed to replace the % with %26 at a different point in the code, and it now works as expected. Thansk for your help. Martin

Hi I have an angular gauge that has four colour ranges, like so: <colorRange> <color minValue="-2" maxValue="-1" code="[b]FF654F[/b]" /> <color minValue="-1" maxValue="0" code="[b]F6BD0F[/b]" /> <color minValue="0" maxValue="1" code="[b]8BBA00[/b]" /> <color minValue="1" maxValue="2" code="BBDCFF" /> </colorRange>[

Yes it does - thanks :cool:

I am trying to replicate the chart below in fusion - the issue i have is that I am new to fusion having just taken on an ex-colleagues project and am trying to get the this chart working in fusion. We have a C# class that stores all the data for a chart, and then some code that converts it into XML for a fusion chart, but i have only worked with dundas, so am not sure how to go about creating the XML for this chart, and if it needs anything special from a standard line or point chart. In dundas the chart has two point series and 4 line series, and I bind them by both x and y axes to give me the chart I require. What i need to know is if the chart below can be acheived in Fusion, and if so, I'd appreciate a little guidance as to how to create it. Many thanks Martin

OK thanks. Looks like I need to have a rethink on how I intend to do this. Martin

Hi Thanks, but can you tell me how that will help? I need to mix lines and points, and the link you gave only shows points/bubbles - how do I add the lines? Martin

I have three charts on a page, and the x-axis labels are the same on both charts. One chart is 175px high by 350px wide, and the second is the same height but 550px wide. Only difference is that the second chart has a legend displayed to the right of the chart. The first chart does not display a legend. With chart 1, the three labels word wrap, but on the second one they don't - is there a way to force the axis label word wrap? Thanks Martin
