Hi,

New to google charts and exploring sample code to check I can replicate functionality.

I am unable to get my column chart to animate from within a dashboard wrapper.

Anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?

<html>
  <head>
    <!--Load the AJAX API-->
    <script type="text/javascript" src="https://www.gstatic.com/charts/loader.js"></script>
    <script type="text/javascript">

      // Load the Visualization API and the controls package.
      google.charts.load('current', {'packages':['bar', 'controls']});

      // Set a callback to run when the Google Visualization API is loaded.
      google.charts.setOnLoadCallback(drawDashboard);

      // Callback that creates and populates a data table,
      // instantiates a dashboard, a range slider and a pie chart,
      // passes in the data and draws it.
      function drawDashboard() {

   
         var data = google.visualization.arrayToDataTable([
       ['Date Sort', 'Date','Act_No', 'Activity','sub_no', 'Subject','Duration', 'Location_no','Location', 'Day','Colleague', 'Phase'],
       [20160608,new Date(2016,06,08),3,'Class Teaching',2,'Reading',60,1,'In-School','Saturday','Colleague A','Key Stage One'],
       [20160608,new Date(2016,06,08),3,'Class Teaching',3,'Writing',60,1,'In-School','Saturday','Colleague A','Key Stage One'],
       [20160608,new Date(2016,06,08),3,'Class Teaching',4,'Mathematics',60,1,'In-School','Saturday','Colleague A','Key Stage One'],
       [20160608,new Date(2016,06,08),3,'Class Teaching',5,'Science',60,1,'In-School','Saturday','Colleague A','Key Stage One'],
       [20160609,new Date(2016,06,09),3,'Class Teaching',2,'Reading',60,1,'In-School','Tuesday','Colleague A','Key Stage One'],
       [20160609,new Date(2016,06,09),3,'Class Teaching',3,'Writing',60,1,'In-School','Tuesday','Colleague A','Key Stage One'],
       [20160609,new Date(2016,06,09),3,'Class Teaching',4,'Mathematics',60,1,'In-School','Tuesday','Colleague A','Key Stage One']
       ]); // 'false' means that the first row contains labels, not data.
        
        // Create a dashboard.
        var dashboard = new google.visualization.Dashboard(
            document.getElementById('dashboard_div'));


var control = new google.visualization.ControlWrapper({

'controlType': 'CategoryFilter',
'containerId': 'filter_div',


 'options': {       
'filterColumnIndex': 5,
 
'ui': {
'allowTyping': false,
'allowMultiple': true, 
'selectedValuesLayout': 'aside'
 }
},
 
'state': {'selectedValues': []}
});

      
       // Create a pie chart, passing some options
        var pieChart = new google.visualization.ChartWrapper({
          'chartType': 'Bar',
          'containerId': 'chart_div',
        
        'options': {
        'chart': { 'title': 'Density of Precious Metals, in g/cm'},
        'width': 600,
        'height': 300,
        'bar': {'groupWidth': '85%'},
        'legend': { 'position': 'left' },
        'animation':{ 'duration': 6000, 'easing': 'linear','startup': 'true'}

          },
          
          'view': {'columns': [5, 4]}
          
        });

              dashboard.bind(control, pieChart);

        // Draw the dashboard.
        dashboard.draw(data);
      }
    </script>
  </head>

<body>
    <!--Div that will hold the dashboard-->
    <div id="dashboard_div">
      <!--Divs that will hold each control and chart-->
      <div id="filter_div"></div>
      <div id="chart_div"></div>
    </div>
  </body>
</html>

I believe we have a fix for the animation problem in dashboards in the 'upcoming' release.  Just change your 'current' to 'upcoming'.

Thanks for your suggestion.

That hasn't worked and the input on the control hasn't rendered. (See attached screenshot)

Any further ideas?

I missed that you are using the Material charts.  Animation isn't supported at all yet for those.  You might want to use the theme: 'material' option with corechart instead. 

Thanks for your suggestion.

Thanks for your help!!!!.

I do see animation with the 'corecharts' package.

Interestingly these only work with 'current' selected. Using 'upcoming' produces the error I  shared in the screenshot earlier in this thread.

Thanks for your suggestion.
