Hi,

I have a chart report displaying indicator values over time. This indicator is a report parameter and can represent either a percent (%) or a currency ($) value.

Here is an example with a percent type:

index.php/fa/22495/0/

Now i need to change the format number of datapoint labels depending on the type of the selected indicator. In BIRT designer i defined percent format by default:

index.php/fa/22496/0/

The indicator type is extracted from a dataset and stored in a persistent global var, so that it can be accessed in chart scripts.

In a data field of a crosstab the format could be changed in "onCreate" event with something like:

this.getStyle().numberFormat="$ #,###";

But in chart scripts i can't find out a way to change the format number dynamically. Any suggestion will be appreciated!
