"no data" label

[Wesley Chin]

Hi there,

I have a bar chart which I created and works perfectly.  All I want to know is is there a way to display the message "no data" on the bar chart area like the pie chart when there is no data?  Currently, when there is no data to be displayed, it is showing the chart but with no bars.  

Thanks,

Wesley

Hi Wesley,

I'm facing the same issue. Based on the data selected by user I want to show "No Data" in Line, Bubble and Column Charts. Unlike you my Chart is not even drawing chart without the column. It just shows an error message saying not enough columns to draw chart. Did you find a solution for this?

Thanks

Unfortunately, our charts are indeed inconsistent in their handling of empty data tables.

Please feel free to report the issue here.

Hi,

I found a temporary solution to this. When I draw charts and the data table is empty my column and bubble charts give error. The error is displayed in a span div. I binder and error event with the charts and in the method removed the span div and added the div which says no data in the same format as pie chart. The only problem with this is you cannot get the container id from the error event so container ids need to be hardcoded.

Hi, i also had this issue, i found a solution: use the pie chart message calling piechart template with no data on the container you want to show "No Data" message, without know about how to show this message on other kind of charts:

drawPieTemplate(array1,container1);

if (array2.length==0){

   drawPieTemplate(array2,container2);

} else {

   drawBarTemplate(array2,container2);

}

My suggestion is to prepare pietemplate, bartemplate, columntemplate, ... functions with data and container as parameters so you can do it easily!
