I am trying to take a chart(on it's own "sheet", not as an object inside of another "sheet"), and display it on a VB2010 windows form.
The only thing I could find was creating the chart using code, and then loading in the data series from excel. ie. Chart1.ChartType = "XYscatter" or something along those lines, and I haven't even gotten that to work right.
I have way to many charts to go through and manually set them to the way they should be. Is there an easy way to just use Imports Microsoft.Office.Interop to do something along the lines of
Chart1 = xlWorkBook.Charts("MyChart")
?
Your are on the right line, if you have specific questions about creating a chart with code, post what you've got and i'll see if i can help
If you want to display the chart on a .Net form it might be best to take an image of the chart and put that on the form
get a chart object:
Set Chart1 = xlWorkBook.Charts("MyChart")
copy it
Chart1.ChartArea.Copy
its now on the clipboard. you should be able to access from there in .Net as you see fit
To prove its there, you can paste it into a normal excel worksheet
ActiveSheet.PasteSpecial Format:="Picture (Enhanced Metafile)", _
Link:=False, DisplayAsIcon:=False

I am new to d3 but I am hoping that it possible to create a chart in d3 and output the chart to a file without displaying it on a page first. Is it? I would like to include various charts in a pdf document using fpdf and import into the pdf a chart or two.
I have been searching around for a solution to this for some time now. While I can see that you can:
Use d3 (chart.js etc) to generate a chart and display it on screen in a page
Export the image to file on the server
And then create the pdf importing the saved image
But I want to avoid any on screen display and for the image of the chart to be saved to the server directly so that fpdf can import it in.
This seems to me something that would be required frequently but I can't seem to find a solution.
An option seems to be to use something like phantomjs as an interim step but I think that this needs to be running on my host. It would be great if it could be exported to file driectly from d3. Is this possible?
I am trying to make the series name in a bar chart show up as a Data Label in spreadsheetgear 2012 but cannot find a way to make it visible in the chart explorer. Any help would be appreciated.
While the ChartExplorer allows you to modify many aspects of a chart, it does not yet support modifying data label related chart elements.
Instead, you'll need to use SpreadsheetGear API to do this, which would involve enabling ISeries.HasDataLabels and then fine-tuning how the labels are displayed with ISeries.DataLabels (see IDataLabels interface). Example:
// Assuming you have an IChart object named "chart", enable
// data labels for the first series.
chart.SeriesCollection[0].HasDataLabels = true;
I have a kendo chart where i can export the image from javascript side but it will ask for save the image but i wanted to store the image in particular path without asking and then export the image into excel and then add some data along with the image.Please help me how to acheive this functionality.
Have you seen http://demos.telerik.com/kendo-ui/chart-api/export ?
I think you can save the chart in either of the three mentioned formats.
And,i guess saving path can be mentioned in the same.
I have a map of the US with markers for stores in each state and currently when you hover over each marker, the name and address of that store shows up. I used a json file (us.json) to get the states coordinates and boundaries. The second json file (newstorelocations.json) contains information about each store and it's location which I used to display the markers. I used a tooltip for this.
What I currently have is at:

I have a third json file (newstorespend.json) that contains products and amount spent for each store. The variable StoreDescription exists in both the second and third json file. Any clue how can I make a simple vertical bar chart displaying amount and product for each store location when you hover over each marker? I am totally new to d3.js so I am guessing I would have to write a separate function creating the chart in a separate file, and then pass it into that variable d in the mouseover function but that's purely a guess. I did make a bar chart out of the data from the third file but how do I make individual bar charts for each store and show it when the mouse hovers over the corresponding store marker.
I would appreciate any help. Thanks in advance!
There's basically no difference between adding a chart to a tooltip vs doing it normally, you'll just need to grab the data and filter it so that it only applies to the data point that you're hovering over and then create/update the chart based on that data at the correct DOM element.
I've forked your gist and done just that. I just used the data that you had for Anchorage in your newstorespend.json file in your gist. Hover over the data point for the store in Anchorage to see what shows up.
You can take a look at http://bl.ocks.org/benlyall/37e757a1e6922dccb077
The onHover and offHover functions do all the work that you're probably interested in.
Note: this is only one way to do it, and possibly not even the best.
I have a VB6 application which has RTF field that eventually gets copied and pasted to Word 2010 document.
Texts and pictures get pasted all nicely except when a chart element is pasted, it has axis labels hidden by default.
So I basically have to click individual chart and "show" axis labels.
Is there any way to make it visible by default?
Thanks!
You might need to expand on your question a bit for more specific details but it is possible using OLE Automation to manipulate the objects in your Word document from VB6. Here's a better sample than I could give you from memory: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/237337
