Updates in this release

Updates in v3.10

New Features

• FusionCharts XT v3.10.0 introduces support for the zoomscatter chart and the zoomline dual yaxis chart.
  • The zoomscatter chart is an extension of the scatter chart with the zooming and panning ability for large number of data points and can be used for finding correlations between data sets.
  • The zoomline dual yaxis chart, an extension of the zoomline chart, can be used to plot and compare large data sets having different numeric units or different intervals.
• The following new attributes have been added to FusionCharts Suite XT for enabling animation of data plots when the corresponding legend item is clicked:
  • transposeAnimation
  • transposeAnimDuration
• The following attribute has been introduced to determine the visibility of a data plot, when the chart is first loaded:
  • visible
• The functionality of the following existing attributes has also been improved:
  • use3dLineShift (the default value has been changed from 0 to 1 )
  • alpha (setting this attribute to a value more than 0 the attribute now also impacts the transparency of the anchors)
• The zoomline chart now supports a dual yaxis.
• The showTerminalValidData attribute has been introduced for the zoomline charts. Previously, when the zoomline chart was rendered in the compact mode, the first and the last valid data values in the dataset were skipped, if the data was out of step. This was the case even for connectNullData=1 . showTerminalValidData=1 ensures that the first and last valid data values are rendered in the compact mode.
• Corresponding data plots are now highlighted when the mouse pointer is hovered over a legend item. Along with enhancing the visualization, this new feature also enables establishing a relation between the data plots and legends.

Improvements

• Chart legend can now extend beyond the canvas width if a chart is used to plot data for a large number of data series. Previously, in this case, the legend got wrapped and a scroll bar was rendered to scroll through the legend icons, even though there was enough unused space left.
• The following legend pointer customization attributes have been introduced for the gradient legend:
  • legendPointerColor
  • legendPointerBorderColor
  • legendPointerAlpha
  • legendPointerBorderAlpha
• The svgDeCanvo library has been built and incorporated into the FusionCharts library:
  • Enables drawing SVG charts directly on the HTML5 Canvas
  • Overcomes the security issues in Internet Explorer for the clientside export feature, so that IE 10 and IE 11 users can also use this feature.

Fixes

• Extra space in the tooltip text for the last column in a column 2D chart has been removed.
• Large number of data sets/data plots in the column 2D and bar 2D charts are now rendered with equal width and gap between the data plots.
• For pie 3D and doughnut 3D charts, data labels with large text values are now truncated when manageLabelOverflow=1 .
• lineDashLen attribute is now working correctly for all values in the line chart and the zoomline chart.
• The connectNullData attribute now works as expected for the zoomline chart, connecting all data points from the first to the last data point. Previously, the attribute failed to connect all the points.
• In the Bubble chart, the xaxis label is now displayed when labelDisplay=rotate and for all values of the labelFontSize attribute.
• For rotateValues=1 , the sum of each stack in a stacked column chart (s howSum=1 ) is now rendered within the chart canvas. Previously, this value would go out of the canvas, if rotateValues=1.
• In the zoomline chart, tooltips are no longer seen for data plots that are outside the canvas area.
• Error encountered UIWebView on render of line charts with dashed line segments has been fixed.
• Tooltips for truncated data labels are now visible in iOS and Android devices.
• The displayValue property of an event argument now returns the value of the data plot, for showValue=0. Previously, if showValue=0 , the displayValue property returned a blank value.
• < and & gt; can be used to display the < (less than) and > (greater than) symbols respectively for all labels inside the chart canvas.
• The legendPointerBorderThickness attribute now works correctly with the gradient legend.
• The ignoreCols and ignoreRows arrays, in the jQuery plugin, now behave as expected. In addition, the behaviour of the following attributes has also been fixed:
  • useLabels
  • useLegend
  • labelSource
  • legendSource
  • seriesColors
  • convertBlankTo
