Switching the Chart Engine

You can use the ARGRAPHENGINE StyleSheet setting to switch the chart engine. You can also add this setting to the SECTION tag of Compound reports.

The StyleSheet syntax is

ARGRAPHENGINE=[DEFAULT|FUSION|FLEX|JSFUSION]

where:

DEFAULT

Is the same as the current behavior of the output format types AHTML, FLEX, and APDF. If you do not set ARGRAPHENGINE in the procedure, the default behavior is ARGRAPHENGINE=DEFAULT.

FUSION

This setting is the default for the output format types AHTML and FLEX. For AHTML, this uses the current Flash charts, by default, on browsers with Adobe® Flash® Player that may not support the functionality in the new JavaScript charts, such as older releases of Internet Explorer®. These charts will automatically switch to the new JavaScript charts on browsers that do not support Adobe Flash Player, such as Safari on the iPad.

FLEX

Uses the default four Adobe Flex charts when output format is FLEX or APDF. These are the existing charts that work in both connected and disconnected mode. No additional chart types will be available at run time.

JSFUSION

Uses the new JavaScript charts for the output format type AHTML. These charts will work in both connected and disconnected mode. The current AHTML default four JavaScript charts will not be available at run time.

Note: You can add the following syntax to your StyleSheet when creating a report for Active Technologies to use the new chart engine instead of using the current chart engine.

TYPE=REPORT,ARGRAPHENGINE=FUSION,$

You can add the following syntax in the SECTION tag of a Compound document for Active Technologies to use the new chart engine for all reports in the dashboard.

SECTION=section1, LAYOUT=ON, ARGRAPHENGINE=FUSION,...
