Title: Would you like to see a different chart type?
Post by: StephenM on January 06, 2008, 08:31:04 pm
I was looking before at the Google Charts API, and its easier to setup than the current chart system. Which would you prefer to see? Included are a sample of each:

A: Current Type

Im probably the only person who likes the current one. Keep it, but change the colours a little bit

Yes, its an Irish Domestic route if I remember.

Also the Google charts will have the % in the name of each airline.

Just a quick update. I have the charts sitting at the end of the Market Share table on View Airport as a test to see how people like them. It shows the top 8 before summing the rest. I may do a check to prevent it going over 75% market share in that top 8.

the colours are hard to define.
it all looks the same to me when there's a bunch of information together.

Ok, I've updated the colours a bit. Green, Yellow and Red. Gives a nice variety. They are also updated here, if you cannot see them force your browser to refresh its cache.

Google... the one right now is pretty messed up if an airline has long names
Title: Would you like to see a different chart type?
Post by: DarthRobby on January 07, 2008, 04:49:30 am
I still like the one we have right now, how hard would it be to put them both in, or even to have an option?

The newer one looks a lot better (Although I have a soft spot for the old one because my airline has the largest market share, I don't get that too often!!!  :lol: )

I like the old one better ( it's more practical)
