How To Pass Chart Settings

[sweep]

Hi, I'm building up my chart string in PHP using the following:

 

$strXML .= "<graph caption='graph' xAxisName='Date' yAxisName='Number' decimalPrecision='0' showShadow ='0' rotateNames='1' lineThickness='5' showValues='0' showAnchors='0' numDivLines='0' canvasBorderAlpha='0' canvasPadding='30' bgImage='images/graph_bg.png' bgAlpha='0' bgColor='FFFFFF' showBorder='0'>";

 

but certain things such as the bgImage and canvasPadding have no effect. In the documentation it references applying these to <canvas, how do I do that using the above code and how is <canvas different to <graph?

 

Thanks

Hi Sweep,

 

Let me help you. If you want to show an image background you should set the bgAlpha param to 100, or greater than 0, the bgAlpha is like a gradient on the image, so you are disappearing the image settig the param with 0.

 

The canvasPadding parameter refers to the separation between the layer where you draw the graph and the lines that are drawn into this layer. Look the documentation in this site to understand me, this is the path:

Support > Documentation > FusionCharts XT > Quick Chart Configuration > Chart Paddings & Margins

 

And finally try this example that i've wrote for you.

 

I hope that this can help you.

 

Greetings!!

Going through other posts it looks like I can't use <chart> if I'm using fusion charts Free it has to be <graph> do you know if <graph> supports hiding the top and right border, setting the background image on a 2d line chart and adding canvasPassing because it seems to ignore these parameters?
