Excellent thank you for posting the fix! I was expecting that to be fixed in the next release in 2012.

I'm trying to add a crosshatch pattern to a rectangle as well as a color. I'm not having any luck.

How do you do this ?

Is there any timeline on when the next release will be ready ?

Yes indeed that's confirmed.

//$chart1->getChart()->getAspect()->setView3D(false); //it seems to break the custom drawing brush

commenting out the setview3D() line prevents the problem, but gives the canvas that 3d appearance on the upper left side.

I found that if you don't actually create something on the chart before rendering the chart then the transparency functions and brush and pen settings don't work correctly or at all when you try to draw on it afterwards. I was experimenting with painting areas of the canvas certain colors and I bump...

I've been playing with the ticks and axis labels as identified in your code above and I now have my adjustable white space solution. The ticks are helpful and they are the answer to my problem of adjustable whitespace between the plotable chart boundary and the header/footer text. I can either chang...

Thanks very much that is helpful, I looked at the different types of tick marks but since I didn't have any I assumed they were not a factor. Ultimately what I am looking to do is create a fixed size graph say 800x600 that will always have the same sized chart area regardless of how many lines the h...

I'm not having any luck creating multiline text in headers or labels in graphs The tutorial say the following: MultiLine labels Axis labels can be displayed as multi-line text instead of a single line of text. Lines are separated using the TeeLineSeparator global constant, which by default is the ca...

Is it possible to alter (increase/decrease) the white space surrounding the chart area created by making an axis visible ? If I create a chart that is 800x600 1) make all 4 axis visible 2) make it a 2d chart (3dview = false) 3) set all margins to zero (left right top and bottom) 4) set header and fo...

Excellent!! That appears to have done the trick.

Woohoo!!
I'm happy it's not my server this time. I bet this amounts to little more than a typo in the source code.

Having a bit of trouble with the textHeight method. I'm creating a blank canvas and writing 1-12 character string on to it using textOut. I then need to draw a rectangle or ellipse around that text.. actually I do it in the reverse order but it works fine. I use the textHeight($text) method to find ...

Thanks for your reply. I don't get the expected results as you do. I even added your 2 lines to make the graph a line chart vs my own case where it was a blank and all i had was the 2 lines I use to create the 4 quadrants. Interestingly.. to me when I add your line graph and sample data I get a few ...

Here is a file I made to test this issue, you can just add a ?trv=xx as a get to change the transparency value quickly.. again on my server a transparency value of 50 makes the 2 lines I have drawn invisible and other values don't make sense.. 25 is darker than 75 etc..90 is darker than 75.. I can p...

Thanks for your quick response to my previous question on shadows. #1) I'm playing around with the transparency functions on lines and have found some confusing results. If I draw a line on a canvas the default line is not solid, fair enough. if I set the transparency of that line to 50 it vanishes,...
