Legend size

Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

 

 

I tried to show some data in MSColumn3D chart and had a problem with legend size.

 

If I pass large quantity of series to xml and set rather small size of chart, the legend keeps too much space and chart is rendered badly. I set scaleMode parameter to "noScale".

 

One of the solutions is to use "exactFit" mode in such cases, but it becomes dependent on xml data, which is defined after initializing of FusionCharts object (scaleMode).

 

Preferable solution - to handle legend size in xml.

Is there a way to control legend size, like set minimal visible lines (2/3) in legend to make it scrollable?

 

 

 

Thanks,

 

Andrew

Hello Andrew,

 

 

 

I regret to say there are no ways/methods to control the Legend size, as of now, in FusionCharts.

 

 

 

This feature is already on the wishlist for future product upgrades. :)

Hey Andrew,

 

 

 

This feature will be included in the upcoming FusionCharts v4!

 

 

 

The release date is, however, still undecided. :)

I have a similar question, but I think it is an even simpler problem to solve.. I have a very simple 2 series bar chart with 2 very short legend labels.  There is plenty of space to fit both legend items on one row, but Fusion Charts is putting them on two rows, thereby taking up valuable vertical space. Is there any way to force the legend to display it's contents on one row?

 

Thanks in advance!

Hello,

Could you please send us your XML so that we can solve the issue as soon as possible?

Also, please specify the height and width of the charts.

Awaiting your reply.

Dear User,

 

We are delighted to announce that PowerCharts is now ready for your iPads and iPhones too. We have just released PowerCharts v3.2. Starting v3.2, PowerCharts has HighCharts embedded within it, and offers both Flash and JavaScript (HTML5) charting . The Flash charts are displayed on a majority of devices and the JavaScript charts on devices that do not support Flash, all of it without writing a line of code.

 

Automatic rendering of JavaScript charts on devices (like iPad and iPhone) where Flash player is not supported.

 

5 new chart types:

 

Heat Map Chart

 

Box and Whisker Chart

 

Step Line Chart

 

Error Line Chart

 

Error Scatter Chart

 

 

* Support for JSON data format.

 

* Support for LinkedCharts, where a single data source controls multiple charts.

 

* Interactive legends in charts allow selective showing/hiding of data series.

 

* Legends now support icons for each data series.

 

* Better management of labels on charts.

 

* Labels now have an auto rendering mode to prevent them from overlapping, the chart selects the best display mode depending on the length of the labels and the width of the chart.

 

* Long labels are truncated, with ellipses appended to the truncated end of each label, and a tooltip bearing the completed label text is displayed when the user hovers over a truncated label.

 

* 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.

 

* In Step-line charts dataplots can be joined using vertical lines.

 

* Custom alignment of caption and sub caption using STYLES.

 

* Advanced print management using JavaScript.

 

* Additional options for efficient event handling using JavaScript.

 

* Support for dynamic update of chart properties using JavaScript(barring select scatter and drag charts).

 

* Charts now support % based sizes along with dynamic resizing (barring select scatter and drag charts).
