Problem<\/strong><\/p>\n

You want to display a scatter chart in ExtJS 3.4. <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Solution<\/strong><\/p>\n

Use the Ext.chart.Chart class, and make the lines invisible. <\/p>\n

Discussion<\/strong><\/p>\n

This example works by rendering an Ext line chart and setting the “alpha” (visibility) property of the lines to 0 (transparent). If you wanted to add trend lines, you’d need to add visible lines. <\/p>\n

ExtJS by default loads the charting .swf file from Yahoo’s CDN, as it uses the charting component from YUI as a base. This was recently updated and no longer works with Ext 3.4- charts do not render at all. Make sure to use the SWF file from the Ext distribution.<\/p>\n

This chart resembles one of the ExtJS examples, but their help is fairly poor when it comes to styling. The Yahoo YUI documentation<\/a> is far more complete.<\/p>\n

ExtJS 4 has a scatter chart xtype, which probably works better than this technique.<\/p>\n
