Retrieve data from PivotGrid and Charts
posted

Helo there, I hope my subject isn't too general.

I was experimenting with your trial and came across the pivotgrid with the dataselector, it works pretty well, I could reproduce some examples and experiment some new things, but then I came across this situation. I would also need the information displayed in the table on a chart too. I saw that you have an example for this, it works well, but as I see, with two conditions.

You cant drag another item to rows, columns and only the rowheaders can expand.

In my case I would need it to work like this example https://www.igniteui.com/pivot-grid/overview but with a chart. Is it possible ?

I'm facing problems with these two examples together because when you expand rows and columns, the row or column with colspan mess things up.

If there isn't a way to work with your chart, is there any way I could retrieve the information from the grid to put it in a chart ? I tried to work with the codes from the examples (adapting it a little, debugging) but without success either.

Is there a way to retrieve the data from the grid ? Or I don't know, get the items dragged to the grid and then access their data ? Or get the two examples to work together ?

Cheers

    Hello,

     

    I have looked into the specified samples and what I could share is (in the context of this online sample )

    $pivotGrid.data("igPivotGrid")._tableView is the igPivotGrid’s data, which could be used for the igDataChart as a dataSource. In the sample, you could find the updateChart function to accept both the tableView and transpose. Also a check is made and if the data is not appropriate - igDataChart is destroyed and created anew. This function should be different for any particular scenario, depending on the rows and columns items in the igPivotGrid.

    So summarizing,

    Is there a way to retrieve the data from the grid ?

    I suggest referring to the $pivotGrid.data("igPivotGrid")._tableView, and further building the necessary custom functionality based on the online sample .
