Hi everybody,

I was taking the example from the download to generate a line chart. However, I am not getting any labels on the X-Axis. Can anyone help me out there? (When I create a sample report online, with the 3 bars, I can see the labels).

$lineChartValues = array(
'legend' => array('SymbianOS','iOS','BlackBerry OS','Android', 'Sony Ericsson','Samsung','Other'),
'2010-05' => array('32.92', '29.01', '14.15', '3.94', '9.09', '2.86', '1.11'),
'2010-06' => array('33.39', '26.66', '14.98', '3.95', '9.81', '3.34', '1.07'),
'2010-07' => array('32.04', '26.05', '16.45', '7.91', '6.77', '2.93', '1.46'),
'2010-08' => array('31.54', '25.71', '16.95', '9.22', '6.16', '2.85', '1.43'),
'2010-09' => array('32.69', '22.85', '17.9', '9.79', '6.59', '2.96', '1.16'));

$paramsChart = array(
'data' => $lineChartValues,
'type' => 'lineChart',
'title' => 'Top 7 Mobile OSs from May 2010 to May 2011',
'color' => 2,
'sizeX' => 15,
'sizeY' => 15,
'jc' => 'center',
'groupBar' => 'clustered',
'font' => 'Arial',
'legendpos' => 'b',
'legendoverlay' => 0,
'hgrid' => 0,
'vgrid' => 0
);

$docx->addTemplateChart('CHART_1', $paramsChart);

Thanks,
Martin

Strangely enough, I found that the difference is in using addChart() vs. addTemplate Chart().

A more detailed example:

$colChartValues = array(
'legend' => array('Internet Explorer'),
'January 2011' => array('26.6'),
'February 2011' => array('26.5'),
'March 2011' => array('25.8'),
'April 2011' => array('24.3'),
'May 2011' => array('24.9'),
'June 2011' => array('23.2')
);

$paramsChart = array(
'data' => $colChartValues,
'type' => 'barChart',
'title' => 'W3C Browser Statistics',
'color' => 2,
'sizeX' => 15,
'sizeY' => 15,
'jc' => 'center',

);

//$docx->addTemplateChart('CHART', $currentRatioChart); DOES NOT WORK
//$docx->addChart($currentRatioChart); WORKS


Why are those two methods resulting in different charts?

Screenshot 1 shows it when it was added to a template, which contained nothing else but the text $CHART$
Screenshot 2 shows the Chart added in a new docx document

Hello,

The next version of phpdocx that we hope to release this month we'll add several improvements to charts and we'll solve this issue. The different when creating a new DOCX and using a template was due to a parallel development.

Regards.

Hi,

could I have a beta version of this release already? We need to release our Word Report this week, but this is a major roadblock which stops us from releasing.
Or any hotfix would do as well for the meanwhile.

Thanks,
Martin

Hello,

Sorry but we're in dev stage and you'd find several errors if we send you a beta file.

Regards.

Ok I see. What's the scheduled date for the upcoming release?

Thanks,
Martin

I downloaded V3.0, but still run into the same issues.

Hi,

thanks! So it works if I use your doc template. However, if I open it and save it in on my Machine (Mac + Word2012), then the template seems to become corrupted and the same issue occurs again.

So there seems to be some compatibility issue with Mac Word. On Windows it works fine.

Thanks
Martin

Hi,

I have added your issue to review. It should work fine in Mac OS X too, but we'll check and solve it.

Regareds.
