I am using dc.js for showing some of the charts on my dashboard. What I am looking for is to handle each chart's click event (e.g. bar chart click event, pie chart click event and mouse up event for ranged charts etc.) and save the history of clicked charts in the database. This way user will be able to see the clicks user has made for any of the chart after login.
I have checked dc.js for click events but I am not getting that properly.
Can anybody help me? Any help would be appreciated.
It might be easier, and more helpful, to watch the 'filtered' event:
chart.on('filtered.monitor', function(chart, filter) {
// report the filter applied
});
I say easier, because you don't have to worry about watching different events for different charts. More helpful, because 'filtered' shows you the result of clicking without further processing, so you can show what was actually looked at rather than just what was clicked.
.monitor in the example above is an event namespace. You can use whatever string you want there, but do use some namespace to avoid stepping on other watchers of the same event.
If you really want click events, you can override chart.onClick by assigning to it and calling the old handler (yuck), or you can use e.g.
chart.selectAll('rect.bar').on('click.monitor', ...)
But now you'll have to look at the source to figure out what to select in each chart. And the namespace here is essential because you don't want to interfere with internal event processing.

I'm trying to build some sort of visual workflow in JavaFX. I want my application to have one main screen with the next and previous buttons, something like an installer. When a user clicks next, all the elements of the next screen appear in the same element. All previous choices of the user have to be saved. So when a user clicks on the previous button that all of his choices are still there.
How would I go on to do this?
I found these links on Google, but they don't seem to help me. Something like this is a bit the direction that I want to go, but the code in this tutorial isnt't really that good for scene's with a lot of elements.
The DataFX Framework provides a Flow API that can be used to define workflows. By doing so you can simply navigate between MVC Groups by only using annotations or configurations. You can find some examples of the API here:

I haven't worked with JavaFX in a while, but I'll start by saying I really hope you are using the JavaFX scene builder.
The way I would do it off the top of my head without going back and relearning JavaFX is to create a main window in the scene builder, and have a sort of central content display area, which holds another custom JavaFX container that contains the content you want to display, of which you can then create several of and swap out which one is being displayed programmatically.
Basically, create several smaller components representing each step or screen and display them programmatically in an owning container.
I have a big form on extjs which opens in window, and, for speed reasons, i cache it in hidden panel. There is can be only one window at time, so the cached form is single too. On show event i add form to window, with no rendering and with suspendLayout option for form. On close event i move the form to hidden panel, with panels add method. I do not use remove method not for window not for panel. So, for several times all perfect, but after 3- 5 window openings form lose all of its events: buttons, comboboxes, triggers and other controls are not responding. Where is the problem? Thank you.
It is difficult to know for certain but my theory is that the observable object that your listeners are setup on is garbage collected at some indeterminate time period of inactivity.
I have seen this occur on an object representing the body of an iframe that is watched from the parent window. Click events from the body will work for some time and then all events will stop.
One way to test the theory is to store object reference in a global variable - this is NOT what you want to do in any app but worth a try just to test. Global vars are never garbage collected.
I'm using a RadGrid for changing record status's. Users have the ability to select a status from a dropdown and update that record with that status. Depending on the status chosen, when the user clicks update I want to popup an additional form so the user can fill out more data required for the update. I'm not sure the best way to go about implementing this. Any suggestions are appreciated.
One way is to use the RadWindow like a modal and pop it up to the user via client-side JavaScript. We use RadWindows in our applications and it works. Or, the RadWindow supports a Nested Grid or View that you can have as a record's child; so you can have the master record, click on the arrow on the left and expand the record to view a nested grid of data, or a custom view (via the NestedViewTemplate property). You can also have the form in a DIV, hide it, then show it via JavaScript too.
Those are two ways.
HTH.
I have created a very simple wpf app with mvvm light.
I have rows in a list view, these are templated representations of Book objects.
I can click a row, then click an edit button, this button loads a new window and sends the new window the book to edit (using mvvm-light's Messenger).
The issue I have is when I edit the record in my new window the data on the main form is updated. The text boxes are bound to the object received via the Messenger.
I know this is because I have essentially passed a reference to the same Book object around the place, therefore I update in one place.. and voilà it updates on the main page too.
What I would like to know is.. is there a standard way/method/concept to achieve what I am trying to do? i.e. create an "edit" page/screen with the option of discarding the edits?
thanks.
Could you make your entity implement ICloneable and create a clone for editing?
Ok so could anyone please help me out with the VB for auto entering information into a text box, by clicking certian label boxes on a form in access 2003.
I built this thing using label boxes as "sort of links" instead of button for navigation/commands etc, and I have this power point presentation viewer on one of the forms.
The client has numerous briefings and this will be great for me to provide a little something for them to be able to get their briefings from one spot.
So if I list the choices for the month out on the form as label boxes (with little mouse move events to resemble a web link) and they click on it to select, then the only way I know how this may become functional is if I add a text box to the form, and make it not visible, that way I can name it, and add it to the file path string and it works.
But how do I create the action of clicking the "link" result in "NVOWEFDJHF" into text box?
Anyone know a better way?
Yeah I am an amateur, so I am ALWAYS willing to learn a better way.
Thanks very much!
I would recommend using a transparent button instead of a label.
The main reason is that you can set the mouse cursor to become a small hand when you hover over the button, so it gives back information to the user that this can be clicked.
With a label, the user cannot make the difference between a normal label and one that can be clicked since there is no visual cue.
To create a button that resemble a label:
Add the button to the form
In the properties for the button, set the following:
Format > Back-Style: Transparent
Other > Cursor on Hover: Hyperlink Hand
Other > Name: btAutoFill (or whatever name you want)
If you want the button to resemble a link a bit more, you can change it's caption's format, making it blue and underlined if you wish.
Now if you view the form, you will see that the mouse cursor will change when you move over the 'button label'.
To automatically fill-in other controls when you click your button, add the code to handle its OnClick event (in the button's properties, under Events > On Click, choose [Event Procedure]):
Public Sub btAutoFill_Click()
myTextBox = "NVOWEFDJHF"
End Sub
Quick air code here...
Private Sub MyLabel_OnClick()
Me.MyTextBox = "NVOWEGDJHF"
End Sub
Don't forget your error handling.
You're making this as difficult as possible by using an approach that is not Access-native. The simplest way to make the labels "clickable" is to put a transparent command button over them. But that means the MouseMove events will go to the command button, so you'll have to have its events do the MouseOver actions.
