Hello,
I am using BIRT 2.0.1, and am trying to create a chart that will respond
to mouse clicks. Ideally, I would like for the user to be able to click
on the main graph, highlight data points somehow, and have more detailed
information about the data points be shown in other graphs (or meters or
tables).
I tried enabling interactivity on the Y series in the Format Chart step of
creating a chart, with different actions and mouse movements, but I was
unable to get it to work.
Is it possible to change the appearance of a chart (highlighting points,
drawing guidelines) dynamically? Is it possible to send the information
from a mouse click (the XY coordinates, and how they relate to the graph
data) to another report element? I have been searching but unable to find
this information.
I would appreciate any and all help. Thanks for your time
Myoung

Myoung,
In Birt2.1.0, if you turn on Y series interactivity, it will only give
hyperlinks on the markers present. So if you turn the markers off to make
pretty plots, there will be no hyperlinks. You can edit the hyperlink to
include the y value, or the x value (or maybe both?) and pass it as a
parameter to another report (or any URL really). I too am trying to use the
chart interactivity to make my charts zoomable, but I have yet come up with
an easy way. Ideally the user would drag a box around the interesting area
and the chart would zoom in on that data, but I haven't come up with a user
friendly solution yet. So if anyone out there would like to share with me a
good way to do this, I would appreciate it.
I dont know if this will help you much with Birt 2.0.1 but maybe it will
help you. If you require any more assistance with graphs and interactivity,
I'd be more than happy to offer what I can, but I'm having a lot of issues
with it myself.

Are you sure you configured interactivity on the "Value (Y) Series" and not
on the "Y-Axis"?
I'm using BIRT 2.1.0 and in the "Edit Chart" dialog, I selected the "Format
Chart" tab; then selected Series -> Value (Y) Series (not the Chart Area ->
Axis -> Y-Axis panel that has the "Markers" button). In that panel I pressed
the "Interactivity" button and configured a "Mouse Click" with action "URL
Redirect". It works great -- each bar in my bar chart is clickable.
