We are finalizing our 2019 Roadmap and would like to hear from those of you using our JavaScript libraries. Your feedback will help us better prioritize features and optimize use of resources.
PivotGrid
Remote Data Paging
In 2019, we will give you the option to use partial aggregated data loading from a remote server. This new feature will work with both the Pivot Grid’s pager control (horizontal and vertical) and via virtual scrolling.
Chart Annotations
Annotate your charts with custom labels.
Scrollbar as RangeSelector in Charts
Enhance a chart scrollbar to show the chart preview with range selection capability. This feature can help visualize long time-based series with zooming/scrolling enabled.
Zooming in Polar Chart
Enable zoom for the Polar Chart.
Based on feedback we’ve received to date, customization is crucial to many of you. We are going to dedicate significant resources to address limitations in this regard.
Legend Enhancements
We are considering the following legend features:
- Add legend title.
- Custom item order.
- Custom item bullets.
- Item grouping.
- Hide legend items for empty series.
- Extract the legend as a standalone widget.
- Add a legend to the Bar Gauge.
- Display a legend inside a Pie or Donut.
Resolve Label Overlaps
In certain usage scenarios, our JavaScript Charting library can properly resolve label overlaps. We want to improve our product so that it can address the following use-cases:
- Resolve labels overlaps for constant lines and strips.
- Resolve labels overlaps in Funnel Chart.
- Resolve cross-series label overlaps.
- Resolve label overlaps in Bar Gauge.
