Continuation with charts..

It hasn't been the most productive week for me. I've been exploring methods and ways to implement bullet chart. Also I'm doing some final touches on the candle plot.

Also I had lot of my time wasted bcoz I wanted to know how to put better blog posts :). It's really weird but actually I'm little unconfortable with blogs :(. Anyway I was able to get over with it to an extent in last few days.

Getting off the ground..with charts

I was off to a good start with my project (dojox chartin improvements) with the candle plot. We basically followed the same model as in columns and did it.
Actually it's clustered columns. I don't know whether this is a valid thing in these type of plots... Anyway I thought is a nice feature to add so that you can actually add more than one series
Add Series for chart looked something like below...

chart.addSeries("Series A", [{lx:1,lq:2,md:3,uq:9,ux:10},{lx:1,lq:2,md:3,uq:7,ux:8}]);

GSOC intro: Charting improvements for dojo

Hi I'm Osandi Malage, from Sri Lanka. I'm going to work on charting improvements for dojo this summer. It includes adding some new chart types like candle plot & bullet plot. Also I'm planning to work on time series support, multi axis support and better integration with dojo data.
These days i've been playing with the existing system.
Also I must thank dojo community (specially Eugene) for their great support!

Since gsoc official coding starts from next week, I will keep the progress posted here.
I'm always open for your suggestions! :)
