HI,

I have on one page a dashboard with an AreaChart and a DateRangeFilter to filter it,
but there's also another AreaChart independent from the dashboard.

I've noticed that, changing the DateRangeFilter, also the external AreaChart is redrawn.

is this a normal behaviour  and how can it be avoided?

thanks,

iulio

If your external AreaChart is set up with no entanglements with the dashboard, it shouldn't be affected by anything that happens in the dashboard.  The dashboard constructs DataViews for use inside the dashboard, and so even if you share the data given to the dashboard with other uses outside the dashboard, the data won't be affected by anything that happens inside the dashboard, assuming we haven't introduced any bugs.  
Can you set up a demo where we can see what you are referring to?

Hi Daniel,

I was setting up a demo page for you,
but I have noticed that the second chart had an 

          animation: {"startup": true,"duration": 500},

in the options
since I have already got problems with animation with the the dashboard, I have removed the option and now it seems OK, so it seems that the second chart is not redrawn, but has simply its animation start again for some reason.
no problem for me, data is important and I can live without animations    :)

if it is of some use for you, I'll let for a while my little demo here:

but for me the problem is closed.

thanks for your help today and yesterday

Giulio

The startup animation only applies the first time the chart is drawn.  I don't think animation in the dashboard should affect anything outside the dashboard, though if the animation fails due to an error, that could affect other things executing in the same thread. 

But I am glad you have got it working well enough for your needs.

it is not the dashboard to have an animation, is the chart outside of the dashboard that, if has an animation, gets affected from changes in the dashboard, as you can see here:

Now I understand.  You have a 'ready' listener on your dashboard that calls caricaAscoltiM, so this will be called every time the dashboard is ready, which happens every time the dashboard gets updated, not just the very first time. So that's why the lower chart is redrawn. If you want this to happen only one time, then change addListener to addOneTimeListener.
