You'll find the wizard in your ColdFusion8/charting directory called "webcharts.bat".

Because I've just had a look in it, and it doesn't give me any nice simple options for changing the orientation of labels - it only seems to give the options that are direct attributes of the cfchart and cfchartseries tags. On the other hand, copying your xml at least got me a change without an error... part of the problem seems to be that the solutions I was finding online were fragments (presumably in the erroneous assumption that the person reading would know what they were doing!) and didn't have the <frameChart> bit. So now at least it knows what the <xAxis> is... Even when I strip out most of your options, though, it still substantially changed the look and feel of the graph. So now I need to play with the settings to figure out how to bring it back into line with everything else. But at least I'm closer than I was. Thanks. :) Cheers, Seona. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "cfaussie" group.
