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:
Homepage
Create interactive data visualization for web and mobile projects with Highcharts core, Highcharts Stock, Highcharts Maps, Highcharts Dashboards, and Highcharts Gantt, using Angular, React, Python, R, .Net, PHP, Java, iOS, and Android
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 ...

@iKnowItsLame said in Nice charts 'cos <Enterprise> doesn't cut it?:
yeah but what about Drilldown?
Uh...

It definitely supports mousover / drilldown stuff.
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?
