Complex JFX Chart: Is this design possible?

Hi,
our designer provided me with a screen design for some statistics page in our application. [Screen design.|http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/850/screenug.png/] Sorry for the obsfucation but I think the idea is still visible.
On the left there are controls which enable/disable data series. The one in orange is highlighted (mouse over). The blue data series needs to have a text labeling it. On the bottom there is a label for each column (the column width depends on the data). The last column needs to look a little different than the others and needs to have a label in it (notice the grey shadow in the green area on the right).
I browsed trough the API docs trying to figure out how to implement this. I think the curve part can be implemented using the approach described here. But thats not a hard requirement, we could start with straight lines here.
So what is giving me a headache is:
- variable column width
- label for the blue lines
- last column other than everything else (well that might be able with some css trickery and a bit of code adding style classes)
I am open for suggestions how to implement this with plain javafx2 (as a last resort we could use open source code and adapt the skins or even base the work on LineChart or something). Any help is welcome.
good night
Andreas

Yeah, thats right. I thought that I can handle to whole statistics part of the application in a few hours without looking at the designs in detail, so tomorrow we want to deliver a pre alpha to our customer and i need to improvise a bit. But yeah I think I will have to code, so what would you base the work on? Extending LineChart?
greetings,
andreas

  • Complex bar chart/time line design problem encountered

    Greetings,
    I am struggling with a Crystal reports design issue and I am hoping that all of you gurus out there might be able to help me.
    I need to create a graph displaying usage of industrial-type equipment over a time range. The graph should be something like a stacked bar chart but each bar needs to display multiple segments of the same colour.
    For example, each piece of equipment can have the following usage types: idle, full production, half production, out of use.
    Usage could be:
    08:00-09:00 out of use
    09:00-10:00 idle
    10:00-11:00 half-production
    11:00-11:15 idle
    11:15-12:00 half production
    12:00-13:00 full production
    13:00-14:00 half production
    14:00-14:15 idle
    etc.
    All of this needs to be displayed in a single bar per peice of equipment. The date range may span multiple day.
    I hope someone can help me out,

    Hi Robert
    Create a formula field with usage types: idle, full production, half production, out of use and use this formula field in "On change of" in your chart.
    Create another formula field with the calculations required and use that in "Show value" in the chart.
    Hope this helps!!

  • Is this design attached possible in Flash?

    Please take a look at this preliminary design for a video production studio and tell me if this is possible in Flash. Notes in magenta are on the sketch.
    Any modification suggestions to make this possible are also welcome. If you are willing and able, I would be happy to give you the job of helping me make this go live.
    Thank You!

    I would say it is all doable in Flash, though the part that I'd be wary of would be animating the folks in the chairs... a smooth animation could be costly in file size, and I don't know what to recommend for creating that animation.  I haven't dealt much with video, but I know that you can interupt a currently playing video to play another based on a small project I did.

  • I recently bought a new iMac as well as a wireless time capsule and have it connected how can I use this external drive as the location to store all my files for iTunes, or is this even possible?

    New iMac user here, I recently bought a new iMac and Time capsule and have the whole network up and running now. I have connected another external HD to the time capsule as well and have a total of 3 TB of storage connected wireless to my new iMac. My question is can I use this location as the default location for iTunes?  I doubt I am gonna run out of room considering the iMac has 1 TB of storage already, but I'd prefer to keep my movies and music off the Mac to keep it running smoothly. If this is possibly, I'd like to do this with iPhoto as well. 

    I would advise against placing your iTunes library on a Time Capsule.
    The Time Capsule is designed as a backup device and not for wireless streaming of video.
    Before you do anything more, can I suggest you put into place a reliable, redundant backup strategy.
    Unless you are prepared to risk loss of your iTunes library due to a hard drive failure, I would not put iTunes on the Time Capsule.
    Leave your iTunes library on your iMac until such time as your internal drive is full. Backup to Time Capsule using Time Machine and create a clone of your internal iMac HD to your external drive.
    That's my 2 cents worth. Others may have a different opinion.

  • PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF THIS IS POSSIBLE WITH FLUID GRID LAYOUT?

    This is an example of what I'm trying to do. Excel was the best way for me to provide a visual. Is this possible? Every time I try to place divs in a similar layout, the div will not take up multiple rows. For example div 4 would move down and where row 7 is would now be row 4. Div 2 would have also moved down because of 5. I have a large image that needs to be placed to the left of a header and vertical menu. I'm trying to keep the header and menu seperate and the image needs to be aligned to the top left of the text. I'm sorry that I'm overcomplicating this. I must admit it surprises me that the fluid grid appears to be dictated by rows. I'm wondering if for this particular design I should just stick to a table.

    I'm perplexing by your question.  How do you expect the divs to move in other resolutions?  For the question to be whether this is possible with a fluid grid there has to be some transformation between the layouts.  If you are just looking for a static layout, that is possible.  If the heights are to be fixed like that you could just specify the heights on the divs to make the height.  If the divs are moving down then add the attribute clear:none; to the div, in this case 2 and 4.  This will prevent the float from being cleared and pushing the element down.

  • Charts in Report Designer - choosing columns and rows for categories

    Hi,
    I am trying to create a pie chart in report designer from a data provider which has 4 rows and 4 columns. As a default the chart created is using the 1st row for data and the four columns as categories.I want the pie chart  to use the first column for categories and 2nd column for data. How do I change the default chart behaviour?
    Best regards,
    Jai

    Hi Jai,
    take a look at:
    "Class 1 Chart Types" in http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/c9/08533b97037963e10000000a114084/frameset.htm
    Link is regarding WAD web item but editing is the same in Report Designer.
    Here you will get information with example query for editing pie charts and what is possible or not.
    like:
    Structure of the Data Provider for a Pie Chart
    In a pie chart, the underlying table has only one row. The values in the columns form the pie segments.
    If the table contains more than one row, the additional rows are ignored when the table is converted into a chart. However, you can define which row is to be used (see below).
    Additional the link describes how to build the query for your requirement.
    Regards

    I'm trying to find out how to export my apple contacts to the Salesforce software and they need to be in a csv format and I don't know if this is possible and how to do it if it is?

    I think there are third-party programs which will do that, but you can also do it with Automator:
    See the links in my post, here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/22390873#22390873
    The file or clipboard contents will be in Tab Separated vars, so you'll have to open with a spreadsheet program and save as Comma Separated Vars format.

  • MacBook Pro battery had accumulated more than a 1000 charges, and stopped functioning unexpectedly. Went and got the battery replaced. Just saw that SMC Firmware 1.6 update deals with this. Possible to get my money back?

    MacBook Pro battery had accumulated more than a 1000 charges, and stopped functioning unexpectedly. Went and got the battery replaced. Just saw that SMC Firmware 1.6 update deals with this. Possible to get my money back?

    The firmware update corrects an error that may occur, however the techs would have checked the condition of the battery prior to installing a new one.  If the battery was questionable, the firmware update was really not too important.
    You can check the battery condition by going to the apple, left side of the menu bar, About This Mac, More Info, System Report, Hardware, Power and see what it says about Cycle Count, Condition, Capacity: Condition anything but Normal needs to be checked and may need to be replaced.
    The cycle count of 1,000 charge cycles is the typical life of a Lithium-Ion battery, the point at which the capacity drops to 80% of the as built capacity.

    Hi lynniewigs,
    This is a common concern among Android and I-phone user, and one of the drawbacks to using a smart phone.  We lose so much privacy. Our phones become cameras into our homes for us to be spied on.
    I don't know what type of phone you have, if it is even a smart phone, but here is an example of an application that you can use to determine which applications are accessing your information and sending it out. 
    Permission Scanner - Android Apps on Google Play
    Google just recently revamp their permissions geared to hide invasive applications that spy and send out your information without your knowledge.  Report says be aware of what your Android app does - CNET
    Please continue to be mindful of the apps you download and the permissions you give. 

  • When using Firefox Sync on multiple devices, I used to be able to 'send' a tab from one computer to another. Is this still possible? If so, how?

    When using Firefox Sync on multiple devices, I used to be able to 'send' a tab from one computer to another. Is this still possible? If so, how?
    I don't mean the ability to see what tabs are open on another device (I know how to do this). But if I am at work and find something that I want to read at home, it would be helpful to 'send' the tab to my home PC so that when I return home, it will automatically open that tab for me.

    Can anyone help?

  • Is this a possible bug on the Facebook app for iPhone?

    I tend to suffer from slight paranoia regarding security online and on my phone. I'll try to explain the worry I'm having as best I can.
    Basically, I had a personal video on my phone, (nothing horrible don't worry), but it's of a nature that would be embarrassing to be seen by other people.
    So this video was the latest thing I had recorded/taken with my phone. I went onto the Facebook app on my iPhone to post an older picture I had to my page.
    When I saw that this video was still on my phone, I panicked and worried that it could somehow get posted to my page without me actually posting it e.g. a bug whereby the last picture or video taken would go onto your Facebook without you actually selecting it or posting it. So I deleted it while still on the grid page where you choose your photos/videos and so it disappeared when I went back to the app.
    Can anyone with 100% honesty tell me one way or another if this is possible? If I haven't explained it enough let me know and I'll explain it further. Again, please be honest cos it's the best thing for me. Thanks.

    It may be in Facebook, but Facebook doesn't consider it a bug; it's the way Facebook works. If you gave the app permission to view your photos it gives Facebook access to ALL of your photos. To put your mind at ease go to your Facebook page on your computer and see if it's there.
    If you are concerned about privacy online you probably shouldn't have a Facebook page
