Rendering Multiple (data) Points/Lines etc on ONE Chart

[Jim Goebel]

Hi,

I'm starting a business and by no means the technology person, but am wanting to start lean and mean - and am going to be in need of some pretty flexible web based rendering.

So far it appears that the charts that are created have to be categorized as the various types available - but what I'm in need of is the flexibility to have various data types represented on one chart.  For instance, I need to be able to show line graphs, as well as points (like scatter points), as well as impulses or bar displays all on the same chart..

ALSO WITH..

being able to toggle Y-axis selections,

being able to update and re-render in real time.

From my very base research it appears that Google Charts is reasonably powerful and easy to pick up, but I'm going to be needing all the flexibility listed above down the road..

Does anyone have any suggestions on this?

I'm not 100% sure what you mean by "being able to toggle Y-axis selections," but google charts definitely supports showing points and lines on the same chart (as well as bars and area, and candlesticks).

By y-axis selections, do you mean turning data series on and off?  I have a couple of examples that demonstrates different ways of doing this.  The first hacks a CategoryFilter to do the job of selecting columns instead: http://jsfiddle.net/asgallant/WaUu2/.  The second allows users to turn data series on and off by clicking legend entries: http://jsfiddle.net/asgallant/6gz2Q/.  These are by no means the only ways of accomplishing the task, so if you have something else in mind, it is probably doable.

The 2nd example gets us part of the way there.  The first response states that it's definitely possible to show impulses, points, and line graphs all on the same chart.  Good to know...  Does anyone have any examples of this in action?

The documentation for the ComboChart has examples of how to mix types. Strictly speaking, we don't have a 'scatter' series type, but you can do a line with zero lineWidth and that will effectively be a scatterplot.
