AnyChart 6 (HTML Support) and APEX?

TamasSzecsyNov 24 2011 — edited Nov 28 2011
Hi,

I would like to know if there are any pans on Orace side to support AnyChart 6 (HTML5 support) in future version of APEX? Flash graphs are very nice, but they are Flash based and show pretty bad performance, even if in APEX 4.0 they perform much better than in earier versions.

Since Flash is on the way to dissapear, it woud be nice to know what is to be expected of the reporting support in APEX. TIA.

As you can see in the SoD (http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/apex/application-express/apex-sod-087560.html), the idea is to support HTMLr charts (and I heard that AC6 might be the tool of choice). So we have to wait until APEX 4.2 (or 5?).

Hi Tamas,

yes indeed we plan to support HTML5 charts in the next version of APEX. See our SoD at http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/apex/application-express/apex-sod-087560.html
It's not finally decided yet if we use AnyChart 6 or some other HTML5 charting library.

Regards
Patrick

Hi Patrick and Roel,

Thank you for the SoD.

I know that no dates are enclosed and it makes no sense to ask for one, but could you please tell, how will the release cycle of APEX is going to be? With APEX 3.x it was very infrequent, with APEX 4.x it seems to change but still very hard to calculate. On the other hand it would be good to know, wether we should start to use AnyChart 6 and later migrate to the new APEX version that is comming with HTML5 support or we should better wait, because it is comming soon (i.e. in 1-2 months)?

Regards,

Tamas

Hi Tamas,

it's not coming soon, so I would go ahead with AnyChart 6 integration if you need this feature now.

Regards
Patrick
