ChartDirector 7.1 (.NET Edition)

Simple Zooming and Scrolling (Web)




NOTE: This section describes Simple Zooming and Scrolling for web applications only. For Windows applications, please refer to Simple Zooming and Scrolling (Windows).

NOTE: For conciseness, some of the following descriptions only mention WebChartViewer. Those descriptions apply to RazorChartViewer as well.

This sample program demonstrates simple zoomable and scrollable chart with tooltips, using mouse click and drag to control zooming and scrolling.

The main source code listing of this sample program is included at the end of this section. The code consists of the following main parts:

When the script starts to run (in Page_Load) , the first thing it does is to use WebChartViewer.IsPartialUpdateRequest to detect if it is handling an AJAX chart update or an initial page request. If it is an AJAX chart update, it just draws the chart and sends back an AJAX response using WebChartViewer.PartialUpdateChart, then terminates the request. If it is an initial page request, it initializes the WebChartViewer, draws the chart, and sends the HTML contents to the browser as usual.

Files in this Demonstration

This sample script requires the following files. When developing your own script using this sample script as a template, please ensure you copy the necessary files to the proper directories (typically the same directory as the script) and reference them using proper paths.

The script file for JsChartViewer, and the supporting cursor and image files. They must be in the same directory.
