Title: Dynamic client side charting Cognos
Post by: lchase4411 on 17 Feb 2009 05:40:51 PM
My company is about to upgrade to Cognos 8 from an older version of Cognos and I am curious if there is a good way to provide dynamic client side charting.  By dynamic I am referring to the resolution.  In the older version it was not possible to parameterize the height and width of a chart so it could be handed in at schedule time (parameter configuration time) so the chart had to be designed for a pre-meditated height and width which kind of sucks if you want to embed it into a web application and avoid scrolling.  I know there was an overflow property that you could set to 100% height and width but all that did is render the chart at the fixed hieght and widht and then do an image height/width of 100% which looked like crap.
