Custom attributes and drilldown of chart

[rohit111111]

Hello,

 

Can we give custom attribute to any chart tag and access that value by clicking on partcular point of any chart(in case of drilldown)?

 

And after accesing this value, can we dynamic configure the Charttype by calling the function "Configurelink" and setting its property of "swfurl" or, "Type" that is going to appear next?

 

kindly, share your thoughts.

 

Thanks,

Rohit

Hi,

 

It is possible to set a custom attribute to chart element and obtain it in a JavaScript function which gets called when you click on any data plot of chart. You may follow the below given code:

 

Eg.

<chart ... customAtt='Column3D' >

 

JS:

function getdataFunc()

{

var xmlStr=FusionCharts("myChartId").getXMLData();

var xmlObj=( new window.DOMParser() ).parseFromString(xmlStr, "text/xml");

var y=xmlObj.getElementsByTagName("chart")[0];

alert(y.getAttribute("customAtt"));

}

 

However, when you use a JavaScript function as a value to link attribute, you will not be using Linked charts (but just a drill down feature). Hence, configureLink() function is not in the picture. 

 

If you want to replace the parent chart with a new chart, then you may dispose the old chart and create a new chart in place of it. For information on dispose() function, refer : http://docs.fusioncharts.com/charts/contents/JavaScript/API/Methods.html

 

Hope this helps.
