The following are upgrade considerations and product
changes for WebFOCUS Graph tools:
- As of Version 7 Release
7, Microsoft Java VM is no longer supported for the GRAPH32 engine
to adhere to the Microsoft MSJVM June 30, 2009 end of life date
as per the Microsoft Web site in the article entitled, Transitioning from the Microsoft Java Virtual
Machine. For more information, see the WebFOCUS Release
7.6 and 7.7 Graph Support Statement on the Customer Support
Web site.
- As of Version 7 Release
7, in Advanced Graph Assistant and InfoAssist, X-axis and Y-axis
titles are automatically generated for Bubble charts, as is currently
done for scatter charts. The titles are based on the field names
of the first X and second Y verb objects. You can override these
settings by adding the setX1TitleString and setY1TitleString API
calls or you can turn them off entirely with setDisplay(getX1Title(),false).
- As of Version 7 Release
7, graphics functionality for pie charts produces pie edges that
look much smoother than previous versions.
The following are upgrade considerations
and product changes for WebFOCUS Graphics:
- As of Version 7 Release
7.03, for the circular markers in Line, Bubble, and Scatter Charts,
the radius of a circle has been reduced to one (1) pixel smaller.
This produces much smoother results.
- A known issue for
SVG output is that in some cases the circular markers may appear
as an oval when the markers are located on a sharp angle between
two lines. This known issue will be addressed in 80.
- As of Version 7 Release
7.02, unutilized syntax definitions have been removed. If you find
an API call that used to work but does not work in the current release,
please contact your Information Builders representative.
