This doesn't comply with the given requirement of LineChart having a string-type column for x-axis values. Actually, I see this requirement baseless.
I wish to have the interaction between table and chart, so that manual sorting the table, updates the chart. But I can't find any method or parameter to hide some column either from displaying in the chart or in the table/view. If I don't hide it, then I'll end up with having duplicate data columns either in the table or in the chart. That's misleading for the users. kukacz On Mon, Nov 29, 2010 at 3:44 AM, chrissky <[email protected]> wrote: > Plan B: just clone the whole table but change the string type column > to a numeric.
