Hi, I am having a bit of trouble getting my desired affect with Pie charts. I have a very large pie chart that has space to fit the labels inside each slice, so to maximise my chart area I would like my chart to do this and display labels inside the pie slices instead of outside the pie. Is there a way to do this? Many thanks, Murray

Hi, I have a situation where I am needing to render charts automatically, I have a page which only displays charts -and uses javascript to upload a rendered image to the server using the FCExporter. When all the charts have finished the upload the window closes automatically. All this works fine. My problem is that when the chart is not actually visible on the screen it renders the image really slowly (Approximately a 5x increase). This is a massive issue as I need the charts to render while the user is doing something else so the charts can't be within the users view. From what I can tell - this issue happens if the window is behind another, minimised or scrolled to a different point on the screen so the charts aren't in the view. I am using IE 7, I am not using the latest version of IE for other reasons. I would think this is a "feature" of Flash to give processor and memory priority to and movies currently on screen, however it is a massive problem in my situation. Do you know of any way to get round this? Is there a parameter I can put in the flash object to tell it to run at full speed even when not visible? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Regards, Murray

Hi, I am using the ServerSideImageHandler dll that I have been given to render Fusion charts in a .NET environment, it works fine on everything I have tried to render so far but doesn't work for the Thermometer.swf file. Can you please look into this? The XML I am using is: <chart lowerLimit='0' upperLimit='100' numberSuffix='%' showTickMarks='1' showTickValues='0' gaugeFillColor='74006D' gaugeFillAlpha='100' animation='0' showValue='0'><value>40</value></chart> Many thanks, Murray

Hi, When I render a chart using the new version of Fusion Charts (3.2) Column3D chart, if I have a label that contains a <, it truncates the label from the <. I am using the FusionChart_Gen class to render my charts with encodeChars set to true. Can you please take a look and see if there is a solution to this problem please? It used to work, it has been caused by upgrading to version 3.2. Thanks! Murray

Hi David, I have written a couple of blog posts on this as I needed to do exactly what you are saying. I have written 1 on how to do it in PHP and 1 in .NET. PHP: http://www.murraypicton.com/2010/09/how-to-render-fusioncharts-completely-on-the-server/ .NET: http://www.murraypicton.com/2010/11/render-fusion-charts-on-the-server-with-net/ I hope they help!

Hi, I'm having an issue with right aligning labels in a chart. I have seen this on the forum in another thread: When I try to do this using the php class it encodes the = and " within the p tag to entities, giving me the following: Any ideas what I can do to get around this? Many thanks!

Hi, I'm trying to wrap labels on the y axis a 2D Column chart and can't get it to work. My XML is attached. Thanks Murray XML-1.xml

Thanks, that's awesome! Thanks for all your help.

Hi Basundhara, Many thanks for your reply. Do you have any idea on a timescale for fixing this bug? Regards, Murray

Hi Basundhara, Thanks for your response, it is much appreciated. Unfortunately it hasn't fixed my issue. As I am using the php class to create my FusionChart, if i enter for a new line it escapes the & and so it ends up looking like &#10;. This has the knock-on effect of the ; after the 10 being seen as the end of the label and not the end of the escaped new line character. Is there a way of putting in a new line using the php class that will avoid this problem? Many thanks, Murray

Once again, thanks for your response. The screenshot you have provided is exactly what I am getting. However, what I need is the y axis (the one that has "You", "Avg male age..." etc.) to be word wrapped. I have attached a screenshot of the kind of thing I am looking for (please forgive my poor image editing skills). Thanks again

Thanks for your quick response. Sorry, I got the chart name wrong (got confused!), I'm using the 2D Bar chart, not the Column. This causes the labels to go up the y axis instead of the x which then means it doesn't wrap. Any help is greatly appreciated. Murray

I am trying to use FCExporter to generate an image but am getting a js error: Invalid property id: try { __flash__toXML(FC_Exported(({sta...leName:"null",height:0,width:0, I am finding it very odd as when i try to export to PDF it works great. My XML is (it was generated with the PHP Class): http://www.fusioncharts.com/forum/Attachment2159.aspx However, it isn't just this chart, it is all charts on this page that are unable to generate an image. I am using Flash 10 on windows 7. Thanks! Murray chart.xml

Hi Ayan, Spot on! I thought GD was installed but it wasn't. Thanks for you help. Murray
