Fusion Charts: Mid air graphs

Issue:

[toc on_off::hide=1]

Charts pro contain a feature which allows user to click on the legend and deselect certain categories. This could be a really nice feature that makes these charts far more interactive. The drawback of this feature is that the chart is not re-drawn after deselecting a category, so what happens is the remaining categories end up suspended in mid air.

Resolution:

Ideally it would be a great improvement to have the the chart re-drawn to avoid categories stuck in mid-air. But that's how Fusion graphics works. You can see the same behaviour on the Fusion chart gallery:

There is nothing we can do with this limitation. What you can do is disable this functionality. To do this set the following property for the charts in jrxml:

<fc:chart ... >

    <fc:chartProperty name="interactiveLegend">

        <fc:propertyExpression><![CDATA[false]]></fc:propertyExpression>

    </fc:chartProperty>

...

</fc:chart>

In iReport this can be done by doing the following: right-click on the chart->Edit Chart Properties->Show Advanced Options->Add a property named 'interactiveLegend' and set the value to 'false' (all without quotes).
