Re: displaying annotations in legend

[asgallant]

You can hack something together to make this happen.  Use the "onmouseover" and "onmouseout" events to detect hovering over the annotations, and pull the data from your DataTable into an HTML element.  Here's a (very rough looking) example: http://jsfiddle.net/asgallant/qgUCC/

Hi,

I'm using a LineChart (controled by ChartRange), having a annotation role column (to display where the user can find the maximum of the values).

Is it possible to display the annotations in a "legend like" box, just like in the annotated timeline ?

Thanks

Hi,

this is not what I want to do, but it's very interesting and can be useful in the future.
thanks for your answer.

what I want to do is having a list of all annotations, and the ability to click on them to auto scroll to the concerned part of the graph.

just like in the "annotated timeline"

so you'll ask me : why not using annotated timelime ?
well, I think that a LineChart controlled by a ChartRange is far more elegant.  ;-)

the annotated timeline have a strange aspect, very different than the others charts (I think).

You can do that too.  Here's an example (with a few bells and whistles built in): http://jsfiddle.net/asgallant/GUREK/.  Note that I used jQuery in the example to do document manipulation and event binding; you can use other js libraries or plain js to accomplish the same thing if you don't use jQuery.

Here's a better example: http://jsfiddle.net/asgallant/n9jMG/.  This one uses a Dashboard and ChartRangeFilter to properly emulate the ATL charts.
