How do you create Charts

3 New Member
Hi,

Do you support creating traditional image based charts for websites or a Flash Chart is better? If Flash is better, how to create Charts and Graphs using Flash?

What do you mean by "Do you support creating traditional image based charts for websites or a Flash Chart is better?"

Are you asking if image based (.jpg .gif .png) charts are better then flash (.swf) charts?

if you create Charts in Flash they will load faster and look nicer, because they are vector base. To tell you have to create them would be hard to explain. Use the drawing tools to create your Charts and Graphs.
I would use one layer per chart or graphs and use a buttons to get to the next one.

Are you looking for a chart, thats just a chart and never changes? or are you looking for one of those charts using flash and xml to produce dynamic data?

it kind of depends on the purpose of your chart. if its just going to contain static data that changes once a year, just use an image and update it a little. if its going to be dynamic and change daily or with each individual user, there might be other options out there but flash is a decent way to go. if you want the user to be able to interact with the chart in any way, either use flash(in which case you will need to know actionscript pretty well), or use some pre-packaged software that you will probably have to pay for

Folks, Does anyone know of a Python module for building organization charts? I've looked at gdchart and JPGraph, but neither of them do org charts, as far as I can tell. Seems it can be done with wxOGL in wxPython, but that's the brute force approach. Any other options? Thanks. Paul Gardella

I have posted this problem a couple of times over the last few years but have been unable to find a solution that works. Sometimes charts in reports will display showing the design data instead of the actual query data the first time they are opened. If the report is closed and reopened the correct data is shown. This seems to be a nasty Access bug that has carried across the last few versions at least. One post that I saw on the...
