Problems with timeline and dots on line

Hi,

I am using Vaadin Charts and it is working quite fine. But I notice, when I use the option timeline=true on a Line-Chart, that the dots on the line ( which marks the points) will not be drawn? Is it an Bug or do I have to add something.

Greetings

Andre

Hello Andre,

I noticed the same thing. I found the following workaround. Hopefully it is an approach that you can use as well. Using the following code the dots are not drawn:

DataSeries lineData = randomWalk(1000);       

        Chart line = new Chart();
        line.setTimeline(true);
        Configuration lineConf = line.getConfiguration();
        lineConf.setTitle("Line Chart");
        lineConf.getChart().setType(ChartType.LINE);
        lineConf.getLegend().setEnabled(false);
        lineConf.addSeries(lineData);

However, if you use this code the dots are shown once you zoom in tight enough on the graph.

DataSeries lineData = randomWalk(1000);       

        Chart line = new Chart();
        line.setTimeline(false);
        Configuration lineConf = line.getConfiguration();
        lineConf.setTitle("Line Chart");
        Navigator navigator = lineConf.getNavigator();
        navigator.setEnabled(true);
        lineConf.getChart().setType(ChartType.LINE);
        lineConf.getLegend().setEnabled(false);
        lineConf.addSeries(lineData);

Btw. I use the following method to create my data:

private DataSeries randomWalk(int length) {
        length = Math.abs(length);
        Random random = new Random();
        int current = 0;
        DataSeries data = new DataSeries();
        DataSeriesItem item = new DataSeriesItem();
        item.setY(current);
        data.add(item);
        for (int i = 1; i < length; i++) {
            int randomNumber = random.nextInt();
            if (randomNumber < 0) {
                current--;
            } else {
                current++;
            }
            item = new DataSeriesItem();
            item.setY(current);
            data.add(item);
        }
        return data;
    }

Good luck,

Henrik

Sry, for the late answer, was working on other stuff. I will try it when I am back at the project. Thanks for your feedback.
