Chart Generator

[gandalf98]

Hey everyone - thanks in advance for any suggestions or recommendations.

We are looking for a tool outside of FusionPro to create 3D pie charts. We're looking for the whole nine yards here - exploded wedges, connected labels, etc. We would like to save as PNG for transparency.

Does anyone know of such a product or solution?

Thanks,

Guy

Just in case anyone stumbles across this post looking for something similar, use VBA in Microsoft Excel to create charts and export them as PNG files. Works great for our needs!!!

You can use any API that can be invoked via a URL in FusionPro, by passing the URL to CreateResource(), like so:
 

return CreateResource("https://quickchart.io/chart?c={type:'bar',data:{labels:['Q1','Q2','Q3','Q4'], datasets:[{label:'Users',data:[50,60,70,180]},{label:'Revenue',data:[100,200,300,400]}]}}");

You might also want to check out Google Charts: https://developers.google.com/chart

Please be aware that most online APIs require a paid license.
 

Also, we have improvements to FusionPro's chart generation on our roadmap.  Please feel free to offer specific suggestions for enhancements or fixes!
