Summarizing settings

[HangWireParticipant]

Is it possible to summarize settings of a diagram? I am creating diagram data dynamically in PHP (with CodeIgniter Framework) and passing them to JavaScript via JSON, but some of the diagram settings are equal.

var settings = {
   title: '',
   description: 'Antwortzeiten am ',
   enableAnimations: false,
   showLegend: true,
   showBorderLine: false,
   columnSeriesOverlap: true,
   padding: {left: 10, top: 5, right: 10, bottom: 5},
   titlePadding: {left: 90, top: 0, right: 0, bottom: 10},
   source: awz_dataAdapter,
   categoryAxis:
   { ...

Is it possible to make an array only containing

enableAnimations: false,
showLegend: true,
showBorderLine: false,
columnSeriesOverlap: true

and add it to the settings?

Hello HangWire,

You may put these common properties in a separate object, e.g.:

var commonSettings = {
    enableAnimations: false,
    showLegend: true,
    showBorderLine: false,
    columnSeriesOverlap: true
};

and apply them after the chart’s initialization, i.e.:

$("#jqxChart").jqxChart({ /*initialization*/ });
$("#jqxChart").jqxChart(commonSettings);

Thank you, but when I now use

var commonSettings = {
enableAnimations: false,
showLegend: true,
showBorderLine: false,
columnSeriesOverlap: true,
categoryAxis:{
unitInterval: 1
}
};

categoryAxis from Initialization is overwritten. Any ways to avoid this?

Hi HangWire,

In this case, only the unitInterval property should be changed. We tested with the latest version of jQWidgets (2.9.3) and encountered no issue.
