How to update DataSet of X-Axis after created a chart

Hi,

I create a chart by serializing a Chart file, and now I have two arrays to set Data of both Axes.

I dont use Datebase,
I tried "chart.getSeriesForLegend()[0].getRunTimeSeries().get(0).setDataSet(orthoValues);"

but I dont know how to change the values of A-Axis

please help !

thanks in advance

I don't know if this will help you but this is the code I use to change the values of the labels of the x-axis of the chart, if you want to change the actual values... I'm not quite sure, you could probably tweak them will fetching the data.

Here's how I change my axislabels.

function beforeDrawAxisLabel(axis, label, icsc)
{
if(axis.getType() == AxisType.LINEAR_LITERAL){

//we want to show percents so lets buff up the formatting
var actualval = Number(label.getCaption().getValue());

actualval = actualval * 100;
actualval = actualval.toFixed(1);
actualval = String(actualval) + "%";
label.getCaption().setValue(actualval);
axis.setLabel(label);

}
}

If you're looking for actual values to change, I'd create a scripted datasource, do all of your data manipulation in the dataset from the datasource; then chart it as is, I wouldn't suggest doing a whole lot of your data maniplulation on the chart.

I think it would be better to do it in a dataset then chart the manipulated dataset.

Hope that helps,
