FacetChart in a Portlet

[tgilbert]

Hi,

I've added a FacetChart (of type Pie Chart) in a portlet, which is then added in a PortalLayout. The chart correctly fetches the data and displays nicely.
The problem I've got is that whenever I drag and drop the portlet from a column to an other, the facet seems to be redrawn on the top of the previous one... See attached screenshot.

I do nothing special when dropping the portlet and did not play with all the FacetChart options yet. Is it a bug ?

Thanks and regards,

Thomas

We can't really troubleshoot a screenshot. If you've got nothing special going on, are you able to take one of the PortalLayout samples from the Showcase, add in a FacetChart, and reproduce the issue in such a way that we could run the code?

No worry, here is a sample which does not work correctly:

PortalLayout test = new PortalLayout(3);
test.setColumnWidth(0, 250);
test.setColumnWidth(1, 250);

FacetChart chart = new FacetChart();
Record data = new Record();
data.setAttribute("VALUE", 123);
data.setAttribute("FOO", "Hello");
chart.setChartType(ChartType.PIE);
chart.setData(new Record[] {data});
chart.setValueProperty("VALUE");
chart.setFacets(new Facet("FOO", "FOO"));
Portlet p = new Portlet();
test.addPortlet(p);
		
test.setWidth100();
test.setHeight100();
p.addItem(chart);
test.draw();

The "setColumnWidth" calls seem to be the source of the problem. If I remove those, it's ok.

Regards,
Thomas

An engineer is looking into this, we'll get back to you

We have established that this problem is specific to Internet Explorer. Coincidentally, a change was committed today that makes this problem go away in IE9+, so that may fix the problem for your purposes. We are still looking into a fix for older versions of IE - we'll post on this thread when we have more to say.

Thank you very much!
