Graph themes in JasperReports

[tonydb]

Hi All,

Our developers have noticed that in iReport you can set a graph's theme and they have selected the eye.candy.sixties theme for their reports.

However, when generating a PDF (running the report) from within our Java code we get the following exception: net.sf.jasperreports.engine.JRRuntimeException: Chart theme 'eye.candy.sixties' not found.

I could only find jasperreports-chart-themes-3.5.1.jar as a download.   It is, obviously, not as simple as just including this JAR in our libraries as I have done with the jasperreports-3.7.4.jar (and associated jars)

So I have several related questions

1. Are themes still ok to use in 374 and upwards?
2. How do I get the eye.candy.sixties theme to be found at runtime?

we are using JasperReports 3.7.4

Thanks in advance

Hi there,

Does the fact that no one has replied mean that no one uses themes with the charts built into iReport?

Thanks

I had this problem and fixed by copying


./ireport/ireport/modules/ext/jasperreports-chart-themes-4.0.0.jar

to my WEB-INF/lib  (or somewhere on CLASSPATH)

from within the main jasperreports-server-cp-4.0.0/      (CE download)

Hope this helps.
