ChartMaker axis dates

[FlexibleLearning]

Hi Andy,

Currently you pass the required text to be displayed, so the conversion
would be done by your app before feeding the values as a parameter to
ChartMaker. However, I will certainly look into handling date conversion
within the ChartMaker engine as an option.

Best regards,

Hi Hugh,

Is is possible to have an x-axis of dates using chartmaker?

I use chartsengine at the moment,  but it would be good to have a choice for
each app.  At the moment I can just send a series of data with the x axis
data in 'seconds' and chartsengine converts these to dates,  and spaces them
appropriately even if for example the first entry was on day 1,  the 2nd on
day 10, 3rd on day 12 etc.  The engine just puts the correct spacing into
the line chart.

Is this also possible with chartsengine or would I need to convert the
seconds to dates,  and work out the data so each x axis item was the same
number of days apart?  I tried the demo and this was the only thing that
stopped me buying there and then.

Thanks

Andy
