Can I change "plotPriceAs" value in candlestick chart using setDataXML function ?

[wai]

Hi,

 

 

 

Did anyone try to change plotPriceAs from "candlestick" to "line" using setDataXML function without generate 2 sets of XML data ?

 

 

 

Please help.

Yes - you can do so. But, essentially it'll be a redraw of the chart.

Hi,

 

 

 

if I were to change the attribute "plotPriceAs", am I refer it as "name" like below:

 

name='plotPriceAs' value='Line'

 

 

 

This is the code I used in the script:

 

 

 

function uptChart(DOMId,x) {

           //using updateChartXML method defined in FusionCharts JavaScript class



    var chart1 = new FusionCharts("../Charts/CandleStick.swf", "ChartId", "600", "400","0","0");      

    chart1.setDataURL("Data/Candle6.xml");

           if(chart1.setDataXML) {

          if(x==2) {

           //name='plotPriceAs' value='Line'

           chart1.setDataXML("");

           } else {

           //name='plotPriceAs' value='Candlestick'

    chart1.setDataXML("");

    }

    } else {

           alert("setDataXML not supported");

           }

    chart1.render('chartdiv');

        }

 

 

 

I got this error when I execute my script:

 

 

 

Error: chartObj.setDataXML is not a function

 

Source File: file:///E:/leong%20folder/PowerCharts_Eval/JSClass/FusionCharts.js

 

Line: 137

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Anything wrong with my code ? Please help.

 

 

 

Thanks

Hi,

 

 

 

Just curious about this:

 

 

 

if the chart data is coming from a XML file, and I only want to change the plotPriceAs value in functional attribute, will setDataXML allow me to change only that small portion or do I need to re-generate the entire XML data structure in

javascript

as per the sample given in the website ?

 

 

 

Anyone can help ?

You'll need to re-generate the entire XML.

* Support for line breaks and wrapping in all text elements including: caption, sub caption, X-axis title, Y-axis title, Labels and tooltips.

 

* In Line charts, data values can now be positioned either above or below the dataplots. Automatic positioning of data values is also supported.
