Resize of chart

Hi,

just a short question...

right now I'm trying to resize some charts dynamically in the beforeGeneration function.

function beforeGeneration( chart, icsc )
{
var chartHeight = icsc.getExternalContext().getScriptable().getParameterValue("chartHeight");
var chartWidth = icsc.getExternalContext().getScriptable().getParameterValue("chartWidth");

chart.getBlock().getBounds().setHeight(chartHeight );
chart.getBlock().getBounds().setWidth(chartWidth );

}

Everything works fine except the fact that the given parameters do not reflect the real size of the chart. When I enter 1000 for the width, I get a chart size which is much bigger that 1000px. I try to maximize the chart size depending on the current browser window size, but once again;
When I set the browser window sizes, the outcoming chart is much bigger that the actual window.

How can set the "real" overall size of the chart?

Thanks,
Ingo

yeah, I already know that link. But nevertheless, this does not answer my question...the resizing works great, but not with the correct sizes.

The report itself has a property defaultUnits. The default is set to inch. So you should set this property to px or use corresponding methods in chart scripting to set chartWidth and chartHeight explicitly as size in pixel.
