Hi,

I can choose "Basic Settings" -> "Style" -> Charts, but when I want to preview my chart, I have no display called "make_chart" like in your screenshot! Can you please provide a little more help text, how to set this up?!

Regards,

Tobi

example view attached. just simply import it. It will show nodes per type in pie chart..

I just realized, that the code is not perfect, it does not work with user roles for example. This will need much more testing..

note:
in chart.help.ini
under [advanced help settings] add

hide = TRUE

this removes charts module from the help index

I'm having the same issue at the moment (as DerTobi)- can't actually get a chart to output, even if I use the example code provided. Using latest releases of both charts and views.

@lunas: can you attach a screenshot about what you see when you change the view style to table style? So I can have a guess what could be the problem.
and most importantly another screenshot from the admin/settings/charts page (there should be an example chart displayed on that page, when you set up charts module correctly)

Pasqualle - thankyou very much -- kinda feeling a little dumb at the moment. Didn't realize charts had an admin setting to setup. Now that I've done that, charts are showing up. Go figure. Thanks again.
