Blinking on setDataXML

[vadimiron]

If my data changed, i can update a chart with setDataXML (or setDataURL) without reloading the page - this works fine.

But every time i invoke one of these functions the chart blinks one time. Is it possible to update the chart with the new data without blinking? May be some animation property...???

Hello ,

 

 

 

The Chart 'blinks' when it renders/updates the new data. It is not possible to update the chart without 'blinking' i.e. redering/updating.

 

 

 

Could you add animation='0' to your <chart> element and see whether it suits you with the animation off?

 

 

 

Hope this helps.

Without animation its a little bit better, but ....

I don't know if tis possible, but it would be nice to have such feature like updating of data without redrawing the whole chart ... some sort of interface between flash and javascript

Heylo,

 

 

 

Your suggestion are important to us. We have made a note of this.

I needed to add my 2 cents here. This is a HUGE gaping wound for the product. Unfortunately, when our product goes against the competitor's and theirs and animates without redrawing, we have a lot of explaining to do.

 

 

 

Unfortunately this is bad enough that we might have to ask for a refund. I made an assumption that the purchased product would fix this issue.

 

 

 

Do you have a time frame for when this fix might ever appear in your product?

Hi,

 

 

 

In FusionCharts v3, when you update the data of a chart, it's not incremental - the entire data gets update. As such, the chart takes a moment to clear itself, load new data, parse it, calculate new co-ordinates and then render the new chart. This causes the blink.

 

 

 

However, we've real-time charts (like stock feeds) in FusionWidgets, where the chart can accept incremental data without any problem. Please see www.fusioncharts.com/widgets

 

 

 

If you still feel this would not satisfy your requirements, please drop us an email at support [at] fusioncharts.com with your Order Id and we'll refund the same.

If one is capable of "Grumbling" one has to be capable of "Groveling".  Your option is more than suitable as I thought Widgets only had only dials.  Thanks.

I'm assuming we can contact support a to change our license?

Thank You!

Hi,

 

Is this problem fixed?

 

I need to update chart every 10 sec, but each time I call setDataXML chart blinks =(

Is there any way to solve this?

Hi

 

Are you using Real-time charts? or are you trying to update chart by changing the chart XML?

[paulineg]

We are using Fusion Maps and yes we are updating the xml every time. The map is being updated every 5 seconds.
