Nice charts 'cos <Enterprise> doesn't cut it?
-
Hello @all,
I got my knickers in a twist (again)...
<Enterprise> is our daily driver and while it allows some (say 1 in 100) nice charts, nine times out of ten they don't cut it (too many bars -> labels are unreadable 'cos they get cut down to A.XX.., no mouseOver-Display and so on)
Therefore I'm on the hunt for a replacement, since it's <Enterprise> my options are quite limited and I'm looking for:
-) "nice chart" backed by <Database>
->e.g. "Number of <thingies> per <user>
-) Drilldown
-> show all <thingies> for <doubleclicked_user>
-) <list of <thingies>
-> doubleclick must be configurable to call httqs://someserver/api/open/<thingy>My Google-Fu sadly has failed, it seems there are n+1 packages to create really pretty charts but
I was not able to determine how to react on a click, e.g. drilldown (more details -> show <thingy>)Any advice|pointers from ?

I've used Highcharts:
It definitely supports mousover / drilldown stuff.
-
to clarify:
#1) Pie-Chart: "open thingies within the last month"
-> pie is shown and displays "404 / User XYZ; 201 / User ABC and so on"
#2 doubleclick on -say- the 404-Pie -> <LIST>
-> either we stay within <chart-tool> oder we already call out to <enterprise> here (former preferred 'cos the client will most likely shit it's pants..)
#3 doubleclick on <list entry> -> call out to "out shitty API to open <thingy> in <FatClient>"all of the above happens within <fat client>, e.g. call to <pretty_chart_site> runs as Embedded IE within the <Fat Client>
/don't ask about EOL of IE/Embedded, I got "we're looking into it, W11 isn't in our "List of supported Clients" anyway, so there..." as response...

@boomzilla yeah but what about Drilldown?
/and intercepting <drilldown> with <callout to someotherwebsite>?
Maybe I'm 'cos Trees vs. Wood but ...

Uh...

For instance:
/and intercepting <drilldown> with <callout to someotherwebsite>?
Uh...no clue. Such a thing never occurred to me. Are you just talking about linking to somewhere here?
