Hi

After installing our latest vchart package, you have to enable the vchart load module plugin from plugin manager if you want to show the vchart in a article with the following keyword details
{vchartmodule [Chart ID]} keyword to load the Chart in Article Text e.g. {vchartmodule 1} for Chart ID 1.

Good morning

Please confirm that once the graph is defined it becomes static, that the values are not reloaded everytime the chart is generated.

I Explain:

PK Year Col1 Col2
1 2000 2000 2000
2 2001 3000 2500
3 2002 4000 3000
4 2003 5000 3500
5 2004 6000 4000
6 2005 7500 0

I created a table with the above 4 columns and inserted records 1 to 5. Based on that dataset, I created a line chart and displayed ann the values correctly.

I then inserted row 6, expecting tharthe chart to display the newly inserted row, but it remains the same, no changes.

I go to the chart definition and I see that the Horizontal Value (the X series ng data) still shows the year from 2000 to 2004 and does not acknowledge the existance of a new value.

I understand then, that the x series data is only queried at design time and not at runtime. Is this a feature or a bug?

Is it something that is fixable so that your chart component become really dynamic?

Thank you

Hi,
It doesn't become static, Values always gets reloaded when the chart is generated, but to see the changes you made in chart settings you first need to save the Chart, It doesn't get updated on runtime.

Has this been resolved? I am looking for a graphs-extension for my site, but need to be able to pull data from our database..

Thanks,
Paul

Hi Paul,
Yes the issue is resolve in the latest version.
