How to creatre a zoom panel at the bottom of a line graph?

[Tim Hill]

Hi all,

I've successfully created a line graph pulling four columns of data from a Google Sheet and I can get explorer to make it pan and zoom.

However what I'm really after is a 'zoom panel' that I can see at the bottom of this graph: https://developers.google.com/chart/interactive/docs/gallery/annotationchart but no reference to it in the code.

This allows users to move sliders and zoom in on certain dates.

Any ideas how this is done or is it only a feature on annotation charts?

Thanks.

Hi Tim,

The 'range' control on the bottom of the AnnotationChart could be used with your own charts by using the ChartRangeFilter control in a dashboard.  See https://developers.google.com/chart/interactive/docs/gallery/controls

If you try this, you'll find there are some significant differences, however.  In particular, we use the ChartRangeFilter not to do filtering, but to get its date range and set the viewWindow min and max of the chart instead, which is more like what the explorer mode does.   It is possible for you to do that too, but just not so obvious.

Thanks Daniel - I'll give it a try just as soon as I've broken through my latest headache: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/google-visualization-api/iG5Z7GLCWHs ;) - any words of wisdom in this?
