Caption On Gauge Chart

[Dantrech]

I use Fusion Charts and Fusion Widgets.

In a gauge chart i need to put a title to the chart. In the documentation always see the caption atribbute in the xml but when i implement this the title don't show.

This is very important when export the chart to know the data representation.

 

Any help?

 

Thanks.

Hi Dantrech,

 

Welcome to FusionCharts forum.

 

I'm afraid, FusionCharts doesn't support caption property for Gauges.

 

I hope this helps .

Hey Dan,

 

As a workaround for Caption to be displayed for Gauges, FusionWidgets has "Annotations", let you create your own custom objects (shapes, images, text etc.) in the charts. Rendering of text, with customizable properties, at any position of the chart could be created using Annotations.

 

For more information on Annotations, refer to the following link:

http://www.fusioncharts.com/widgets/docs/Contents/Ann_Text.html

 

I hope this helps.

Actually I was using Logo URL property to dynamically generate titles. Your solution is much cleaner and easier. Thank you very much.

 

I hope that one day FusionWidgets can implement the attribute "caption", since using the exporter the names on the box take them from there.

Right now the exporter shows me "CharImage 0", "CharImage 1", etc. In any case, I posted in requirements forum.

 

Thanks again!

But how can we update the caption, currently annotations can't be steamed or updated after render, am I right ?

Hi,

 

You can create caption using Annotations. You can also update caption after rendering the widget.

 

Please refer the following links for more information:
