Stones and Pounds

[as]

I am using fusion charts to plot a graph of weight loss and have a problem with some users wanting their weight displayed in stones and pounds (a very British thing!).

 

 

 

For the un-initiated, there are 14 lbs in one stone, so I want to be able to plot 75kgs (165 lbs) as 11 stone 11lbs

 

 

 

Is there any way I can do this. Is it possible to add a title to the data points?

 

 

 

Thanks in advance.

Yes - the "Number Scaling" option in FusionCharts is precisely meant for this purpose. You may please read more on it at http://www.fusioncharts.com/FusionCharts/Docs/Contents/Number_Scaling.html

Though we do not have an exact weight conversion example here, you can use the concepts to easily simulate the weight chart.

Thanks for your reply Pallav

 

 

 

The problem that I am having is that I would like to display the weight as

 

 

 

x st, Y lbs but using the number scaling method it would give me x.y stone where y is a decimal, i.e. 13 lbs would be 0.93 (13/14).

 

 

 

Is there a way of putting this right?

I'm afraid that's not possible in the current version.
