    Hi guys,

    First of all, great job!

    I'm gooing trough your code, and man I'm so happy I don't have to do this all by my self ;)

    I created a post earlier about not beeing able to set the tmp path, this issue is still unsolved, but I got myself a seperate tmp dir as a temporary fix, do however still need a fix for this.



    Now I have some other issues/suggestions I would love to share.



    1.) legends

    In previous versions, I could hide the legends that where shown on a chart, simply by passing "none" to the legendPos, in the new version this isn't possible anymore wich is a shame. I changed your sourcecode to make it possible (using false this time), but I think it would be a nice (and easy) extra option to implement ;)



    2.) hgrid/vgrid

    If I set both hgrid and vgrid to 0, I still get a scale bar on the side with numbers, in previous versions I (somehow) could turn this off. I know it might seem as a weird request,.. but its what some of my clients want.



    Could you please help my out on this one, I cannot hide it and do not know what method you use to create it.



    3.) Replaceing an image on the cover page of my document.

    I created a docx, that has a bunch of styles preset and is using a cover page... with an image.

    Now I open that docx, and I'm appending all the required data to it (text, tables and various charts)

    When I want to replace the image, it seems I need to use the addTemplate() call insteadt of passing the file on the constructor. If I do that however, I can't append my data to it anymore....



    What is the best way to go on this?

    Hello,



    We're checking the issues to be solved. About setting the temp path, did you try using the setTemporaryDirectory method?



    Regards.

    Sorry for my late reply,

    I tried the setTempDir() method, but it seems you are using 2 different tmp dirs, one is correctly set after this call, the other one is preset to the default "/tmp" dir.

    There are 2 different get methods for temp dirs, but only one setter.

    When time is there, I will try adding a second setter.

    Hello,



    You can use the temp_path option in config/phpdocxconfig.ini too to set the default temp path.



    Regards.
