can not show picture with AnnotationPicture

[roberthow]

my code:

function loadChart() {

    var chart1 = new cfx.Chart();

    chart1.getData().setSeries(1);

    chart1.getData().setPoints(4);

    chart1.getAllSeries().setGallery(cfx.Gallery.Pie);

var ann = new cfx.annotation.Annotations();

var annList = ann.getList();

var annPic = new cfx.annotation.AnnotationPicture();

annPic.setPicture("images/dx.jpg");

//annPic.setMode(cfx.AnnImageMode.Tile);

annPic.setWidth(370);

annPic.setHeight(445);

annPic.setLeft(50);

annPic.setTop(50);

annList.add(annPic);

chart1.getExtensions().add(ann);

    var divHolder = document.getElementById('ChartDiv');

    chart1.create(divHolder);

}

---------------------------------------------------------------

the problem is  the Pie Chart shows correctly, but annotation picture can not show, it just show as a rectangle.

There are too little documentation about Annotation APIs in http://support.softwarefx.com/jChartFX/api for reference.

does any one can let me know what's wrong with the code?

 

Another Problem is the comment line in the code ( //annPic.setMode(cfx.AnnImageMode.Tile); ), if I uncomment that line and run the code,

the brower will not show the pie chart and throw error message "Unable to get value of the property 'Tile': object is null or undefined".

There is already include jchartfx.annotation.js in my code. anyone can help me?

my system is win7, brower is IE 9, jChartFX version is 7.1.5044.21402 

Thanks.

1) Because of how our code was originally written, you have to specify the original width and height of the image as part of the image URL as follows

annPic.setPicture("images/dx,24,48"); // 24 is the width, 48 is the height

2) To remove the border you can use 

annPic.getBorder().setColor("#00FFFFFF");

3) The enumeration AnnImageMode did not get declared in the current build (we will fix this in future builds), for now you can use 0 for default, 1 for stretch and 2 for tile.

Got it.

Many Thanks.

BTW, As a user , I wish the online API document can be updated ASAP to match the current build of jChartFX.
