Datagrid in Funnels reorder the labels

[GuyInHouTX]

I wish to use a funnel to represent sales activity, and display a datagrid instead of a legend box.  I would use .getPointLabels(), but the values sometimes overwrite each other on the graph.

 

When I add the datagrid, the labels somehow get swapped/reordered so that the data no longer matches the label.

 

I've attached a screenshot to demonstrate...

 

using the funnel example at:  

 

var funnel = new cfx.funnel.Funnel();

chart1.setGalleryAttributes(funnel);

funnel.setTipHeight(10);

 

var data = chart1.getData();

data.setSeries(1);

data.setPoints(5);

chart1.getLegendBox().setDock(cfx.DockArea.Right);

 

chart1.getAllSeries().getPointLabels().setVisible(true);

 

data.setItem(0,0,780);

data.setItem(0,1,1462);

data.setItem(0,2,2465);

data.setItem(0,3,6242);

data.setItem(0,4,15230);

 

data.getLabels().setItem(0,"Renewals");

data.getLabels().setItem(1,"Purchases");

data.getLabels().setItem(2,"Quotes");

data.getLabels().setItem(3,"Downloads");

data.getLabels().setItem(4,"Visitors");

 

chart1.getDataGrid().setDock(cfx.DockArea.Right);

chart1.getDataGrid().setVisible(true);

 

chart1.getAxisY().getLabelsFormat().setFormat(cfx.AxisFormat.Currency);

You are correct, there is an issue because Funnel charts will sort the values before painting but the data grid is currently not aware of the reordering. We will try to fix this in future builds.

 

I am not entirely sure why you would want to show the point labels, the legend box and the data grid as you are showing the same information in 3 different ways.

I agree, we would actually use it that way. I just screen shot that as a fast way to see the differences in sorting.  So for now, I guess I'll just render my own data grid outside the funnel view.
