I am using SmartGWT PRO 3.0p. I started a project today to convert an application that uses gchart to use the SmartGWT charting module. After a bit of study on how to implement charting in SmartGWT, I was able to build a chart that displayed a bar graph exactly as required. Next I looked at how to duplicate gchart's ability to display the data point values on their bar charts. The closest to this was the point hover for data points as in a line graph. This choice also had an issue where the hoverHTML threw an exception whenever the data point was on the baseline. I think it would be a useful addition to the charting module if the value of a bar in a chart could be displayed as a hover or as text at the end of the visual bar. Are there any plans in the works for enhancing the charting? At this point, I am not able to recommend using SmartGWT charting in place of gchart despite the many good features in the charting module.

A variety of different enhancements are planned for FacetChart - to get any particular enhancement that you care about delivered by a particular date, use the sponsorship program.
Bear in mind also that the FacetChart is a subclass of DrawPane, which means you can add your own graphics on top of the default things the FacetChart draws. -
I look forward to the enhancements. I did look into DrawPane, but I don't see that FacetChart is a subclass??Comment
