I've tried multiple methods mentioned in the documentation to try and skip labels with a JSCHART, but everything only seems to work with non-JSCHART formats.

I searched and found an older thread (https://forums.informationbuilders.com/eve/forums/a/tpc/f/7971057331/m/8707084976?r=6077084976#6077084976) where people were discussing this same issue.

Most of the variants I've tried have been the AutoSkip get/set commands, eg
setO1LabelSkipBegin(1);
setO1LabelSkipCount(1);
setY1MajorGridDisplay(false);
setY1AxisLineDisplay(false);
setO1MajorGridDisplay(false);
setDepthRadius(0);
   setO1LabelAutoSkip(2);


Has anyone come across a method that works for JSCHARTs?

edit. Found a little success with these commands, but I cannot set the amount of labels to skip

*GRAPH_JS
blaProperties: {lineConnection: 'curved'},
xaxis: {labels: {visible: true,font: '10pt Calibri',rotation: 0}},
  axisAutoLayout:{rotate45:false, rotate90:true,truncate:false, stagger:true, skip:true}    
*END

Code below provided by Francis a couple of years ago. I got it to work.
*GRAPH_SCRIPT

setReportParsingErrors(false);
setSelectionEnableMove(false);
setAutoSkip(getO1Label(),2);                                // sets or disables label skip for labels
setPlaceSkip(getO1Label(),0);
setSkipBegin(getO1Label(),0);                               // sets the first label to skip
setSkipCount(getO1Label(),1);                               // sets the interval of labels to skip after setSkipBegin()

Doesn't work with JSCHARTs

Except if you can provide a whole sample Babak, maybe we all missing something to make it work with JSCHARTs.

The "skip" option for JSCHART output defaults to true, so you should not have to add anything other than the assignment of the "buckets" for an chart format of BAR.

Doesn't appear to work with horizontal bar output. However, vertical bar works fine.

You do need to have a fair number or items for your axis though, which is why using the CAR file is not so good.

If you run the following, you'll see what I mean. Run the report and change the width of the window. Notice the axis labels changing.

Tony, it's true that labels change, but the result is not the same as for the AutoSkip where you can select to display or not a label.

But it's not my issue, all this is capples request. Maybe the BUCKET option will suits the need.

Tony, I was not aware of that bucket feature and that is better than what I previously had. It's actually probably better than what I was hoping for as it is dynamic in how it changes.

Martin is right though that I was wanting to have the ability to say how many labels to skip (ie the user wanted to only show a label every 6 months, instead of every month on the axis)

Hello everyone,

I want to give static labels to my x-axis which is showing number of days. I want to limit it from 0 - 60 with increment of 5. I have tried everything that is given in documentation HAUTO, HMAX, HMIN, HTICK. Nothing works for me. I am attaching the graph how it currently looks. Please HELP! [FLASH_VIDEO]

My Bad I don't know how to add picture to it. Basically it generates random numbers on X-axis which I want to be uniform so that my graph which is line chart looks more relevant. I am adding my code this time.

You would think that JSCHART (new technology) would be able to do everything 3D Graphics (old and current technology) can do, but, unfortunately not.

How do people discover this? By trying things they knew used to work and now don't.

JSCHARTS has introduced interesting new features but does not support a lot of stuff we've all used in the past.
