no swatches on legend on multi-series stack charts

[matt@cobalt]

I'm new to FusionCharts, exploring the evaluation version, and have enjoyed all of the configuration options available!  I've been able to use the documentation effectively to configure charts, until I started using the multi-series stack charts.  I noticed that the legend appears with the name of the series, but I don't see the swatch colors next to the data series name.  I thought I may have configured something incorrectly, so I went back to the sample XML provided with the documentation - I still don't see the swatch colors in the legend.  I tried increasing the legend font using styles, that didn't help.

See the attached XML (from the documentation) and the chart showing the swatch problem. 

Thanks for your help!

Hello,

 

 

 

Here is one solution...I tried using < graph> instead of < chart> and added colors to datasetseries. It worked!

 

I am assuming you have used FCF_StackedColumn2D.swf as your chart.

 

Attached is modified version of your xml file. Let me know if this helps.

 

 

 

Thanks.
