Unfortunately I cannot help you without seeing the chart (even a screenshot
would clarify it a bit, but better to have a live chart).
You don't need to give us a link to your live application - just add a
breakpoint when you call to the draw method and extract the data and
options you are using. You can then plug them into a chart in the
playrgound and send it to us (
