Using setTransparency with LinkedCharts

[Rorvis]

I am using LinkedCharts with all data embedded in the same XML file.  Everything is working well in terms of the drilldown into the data.

 

However, I want all charts to be Transparent.  The parent chart is Transparent, but this does not carry through to the Child chart.

 

HTML Code:

 

<div id='chartContainer6'>

<script type="text/javascript"><!--         

 FusionCharts.setCurrentRenderer('javascript');

 var myChart = new FusionCharts( "FusionCharts/MSColumn2D.swf", 

 "myChartId4", "500", "350", "0" );

 myChart.setTransparent(true);

 myChart.setXMLUrl("data/ra_drilldown_test.xml");

 

 myChart.render("chartContainer6");

 

// This is properly setting the Back button properties

 FusionCharts("myChartId4").configureLink (

 {

   overlayButton:

   {    

     message: 'Back',

     fontColor : 'AFD8F8',

     bgColor:'005293'

   }

 }, 0);

 

// -->     

</script>

</div>

 

XML code (snippets):

<chart caption='Current Weight Allocations' showLabels='1' showvalues='0' decimals='2' numberSuffix='%' borderThickness="0"

canvasBgAlpha='0' legendBgAlpha='20' bgAlpha='0' outCnvBaseFontColor='AFD8F8' useRoundEdges="1">

 

For each child set of data within the same XML file, I have the same parameters as above.

 

It appears that the new Chart is not rendered with the setTransparency option set to True.  Is there a way to pass this value from Parent to Child, or perhaps set it in the XML or the configureLink method?

 

Thanks,

Rory

Hi Rory,

 

Can you please try explicitly adding the value of the attribute 'backgroundColor' as 'transparent' as mentioned below?

FusionCharts("myChartId").configureLink (
    {
      backgroundColor: 'transparent'  
    });

The attached item is the sample fulfilling the needed scenario along with the screenshots of the same.

 

Hope this helps.

Sorry for the late response, just letting you know that this worked.  I did not receive an alert that someone had answered, so just getting back to this this week.

 

Thanks,

Rory
