Hide series not intial load - this.chart.data.datums(null, {visible: true}) not work

[stijn wuyts]

I have a bar chart in Pentaho CDE 6.0, fed by data in the following structure:

MonthYear | Revenue | Cost | GM%
month 1 value value value

The settings are

• crosstab true and
• series in rows false.

This takes monthYear as X time axis and the 3 measures as series.
Revenue and cost are stacked on plot1 and GM% is on plot2.

Via the legend I can toggle so that either series is hidden.


Now I want to hide the Revenue and cost on initial load.
I follow this article but I cannot use this.chart.data in my pre-execution. A message comes, that the chart property is null. This is strange. When I debug this, the chart property exists....

Please your guidance.

Hi,

if you're referring to this article: http://forums.pentaho.com/showthread...575#post340575,
it says there that you should put the code in postExecution, and not in preExecution.

Cheers!

Thanks... I had tried many times in renderCallBack and pre-execution. Now I finally understand why it needs in post-Execution.
