Adobe Flash Player Crashing With Large Numbers Of Categories And/or Datasets

[Darryl]

We are encountering a problem whereby Adobe Flash Player 10.3.181.26 is crashing when we try to send a large number of categories and/or datasets for display.

Are there any recommended maximums we should adhere to? Or is it browser/operating system dependent?

Is there a way to interrogate Adobe Flash Player beforehand to figure out how much memory it has available and how much data it can accept?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,

Welcome to FusionCharts Forum!

 

First of all, we would like to thank you for showing interest in FusionCharts.

 

Please note that in Flash Player 10, the maximum size for a chart is 8,192 pixels in width or height, and the total number of pixels cannot exceed 16,777,216 pixels.

Please find below the maximum number of dataplots supported by FusionCharts:

It's a start!

But what is a dataplot? Is it a combination of categories and datasets? or?

 

Have a great day!

Hi,

Thanks for your response.

Data plot refers to the column in column chart, lines in a line chart, pie/doughnut slices in a pie/doughnut chart.

Hope this helps.

Helps a little but I need clarification on the dataplots in a line chart.

According to your original response, there can be up to 2500 dataplots on a line chart. In this case, is a dataplot considered a combination of category and dataset? Surely, I can't put 2500 datasets with 100 categories into a line chart!

 

Thanks in advance. This is exceedingly helpful.

Hi,

 

Thanks for your response.

 

FusionCharts supports both single series and multi series chart.

 

In Single series chart, the data belongs to one particular series, which is for the year say, 2005.

 

If you need to compare the data for 2 or more years, you'll have to use multi-series charts. Using multi-series charts, you can compare data for 2 or more number of series.

Here, comes the concept of categories and datasets.

No, that did not help. Sorry.

I know what the difference between single series and multi-series charts.

Let us concentrate on multi-series charts because that is what we are working with.

I have one days worth of data, sampled every 30 seconds. That equates to 2880 categories.

I want to include multiple metrics in this multi-series chart. For example, let's start with 10 metrics.

Given the above information, for a multi-series line chart, do I have 10 dataplots, 2880 dataplots or 28800 data plots?

Hi,

 

Data plot means number of <set> element in your XML code.

 

For ex: 2500 data plots supported in line chart means that you can provide maximum 2500 <set> elements in your XML code.

 

Hope this clarifies your question.

Yes!

That was the answer I was looking for!
