How can I set the markerStyle to nothing? You can set them to visible on the cfchart level but how do you hide them on an individual series level

Macromedia update: With cfchartseries/Cfchart there is an upper limit of 16 series. With more than 16 series an error is thrown.

It is disappointing that several useful attributes are now ignored.
Title - I need to label my charts with a title!

Now colorlist *only* works with a pie chart? What if I want one item on a bar chart to stand out by making it a different color?

It would also be nice if another attribute were added Footnote - this can be used when it is necessary to know where the data came from.

You can turn off markers with the style "none". Also, the documentation has an error - the style "letter" is really "letterx" for an "X", not any old letter (or a series of letters).

Need a way to format (e.g., DateFormat...) x-axis dates.

How do I make the graph showing 3d but aligned forward looking like Steps?

TimElleston said on Apr 27, 2004 at 9:00 AM :

You've gotta get the x-axis date formatting capability in there guys...this is why most people will use a third party solution for charting i.e. lack of complete control.

If I set a seriesColor on a bar chart, and the chart only contains one bar (i.e. one row from a query, or one cfchartdata tag) then the color seems to default to yellow. More than one bar and it all works perfectly. Am I missing something here? Can't see anything in the docs to indicate why this is.

The problem noted by No screen name said on Jun 4, 2004 is known and should be fixed in a future release.

I agree, I'm frustrated that I can't format dates on the X axis. It defaults to the really long version (ie. 2004-01-01 00:00:00).

Noted :halL, made stated that the known issue of seriesColor displaying yellow for only one item in a data set, would be fixed in an a future release....
Is there a target date for this release? Is there a known work-around for this issue?

Found a way to make the chart colour work for a single record set.

<cfchart scaleFrom="0" scaleTo="100" gridlines="5" format="flash" chartwidth="500" chartHeight="600" fontsize="10" sortXAxis="no" showYGridlines = "yes" labelFormat="number" >
<cfchartseries type="bar" query="query" valueColumn="Result" itemColumn="Report" seriesColor="66cc00" paintStyle="shade"></cfchartseries>
<cfif query.recordcount EQ "1">
<cfchartseries type="bar" seriesColor="66cc00">
</cfif>
</cfchart>

Works Beautifully.

How do I get multiple colors on a single bar graph

It's actually possible to format dates in the query itself (at least in SQL Server) using the T-SQL "convert" function:

Select convert(char(10), taskRecDate, 101) as RecDate

The function will convert the date to mm/dd/yyyy format. Using "1" instead of "101" will convert to mm/dd/yy format.
