Open Flash Chart : Where is the CSS?


I'm using Open Flash Chart to display some graphical data in my web page. I would like to change the appearance of the Graph now. I want to change the background color of the graph. I could not find any CSS file in the download. Where should I change the color?


Solution

  • Assuming you're using PHP, you can set the background colour (note the UK spelling!) as follows:

    $chart = new open_flash_chart();
    $chart->set_title( "my chart" );
    $chart->add_element( $bar );
    $chart->set_bg_colour( '#FFFFFF' );

    Alternatively, if you're fiddling with the raw JSON, set the bg_colour element at the top level:

    {
      "elements": [
        { "type": "bar", "values": [ 1, 2, 3 ] } 
      ],
      "title": {
        "text": "my chart" 
      },
      "bg_colour": "#FFFFFF" 
    }
