Hello,
I want to show some rectangle-shaped in a scatter chart.
So my datastructure is sth. like:
X | Y | WIDTH | HEIGHT
3 | 3 | 20 | 2
3 | 6 | 20 | 2
160 | 3 | 10 | 1
160 | 5 | 10 | 3
360 | 3 | 10 | 1
360 | 5 | 5 | 3
So it's actually like a scatter chart, but drawing rectangles instead
of the normal markers.
Width should use same scale as x-axis
Height should use same scale as y-axis
So far, i managed to set marker type to rectangle and size via javascript,
but found no way to set width and height in units.
Is it possible to draw the whole marker via javascript ?
any help appreciated,
Dennis

Dennis,
Currently this is not possible with the MarkerImpl, which is what the
scatter chart uses. The only way around this is to create your own
series renderer implementation.

Hi,
is there a tutorial or example implementation for a series renderer ?
I imagine, that the area chart would actually be a new type of chart,
where u choose x and y-axis dataset columns and additional columns for
width and height. If i would implement a series renderer for scatter chart
i wonder, how i can pass the additional data for height and width to it.

Dennis,
We are working on an example for the next version of the Integrating and
Extending book, but it is not finished. The code for that example is
the radar chart in BIRT 2.6.1. The code is available in two plugins
org.eclipse.birt.chart.examples.core
and
org.eclipse.birt.chart.examples
The core plugin has the render code that is used at runtime.
The other plugin has a lot of examples of using the chart api, but it
also has code to show how the radar chart gui is built.
The chart faq also has detail on how to modify the emf model and write
your own series renderer:

Hi Jason,
can u give me a rough estimate how long it would take to implement
an extension realizing a rectangular area chart.
Are we talking about hours, days or weeks ?
My customer is using BIRT 2.5.x. Can everything be done by
using extension points?
The FAQ says, that,for example, changes to the model have to
be ported again into a newer version of BIRT.
I just want to get an idea, how long it would take me to implement
a chart extension/a new type of chart.
If there are other ppl interested in this type of chart, i will post
my solution here or on birt-exchange after finished.

Dennis,
When I did the first cut of the radar chart it took me about three or
four days. The actual code is not difficult, the learning curve is what
takes the time.
Send me an email, so I can send you some things to get you started.
