I myself had used the software (though older version) for my CFMX 6.1 certification.

Modifying look and feel of charts - Part I (very Basic)

2005-07-18T00:01:00.000-07:00

Prerequisite:You will need to have applied the charting hotfix (find it here) to your CF7 installation.Using scaling is a breeze in CF7 after you have installed the above given hotfix. The idea behing "scaleTo" and "scaleFrom" attributes is to specify the y-axis range of your charts. I will illustrate this by plotting five points: 1, 25, 50, 75, 99 on a line graph. This chart can be plotted by

2005-06-23T05:36:00.000-07:00

ProblemThe following message is shown instead of the graphs:"Image ExpiredPlease refresh the pageTo view the image"Lot of people have faced this problem, the reason is the timeout in the caching engine of the Coldfusion keeps the charts for any request only for a default value of 5 seconds.We missed providing an interface to change this value in the CF Admin, but you can still change this value
