Hi,

As of now, we do not have a fixed roadmap for next major version and such cannot tell you an exact version.

Hi,

Thanks for your suggestion. We actually had this option in our previous version - and we'll again implement the same in our future versions too.

XML abbreviated for large datasets

I have users who like to generate plots with lots of data / thousands of points.

Eg 8000 data points which equates to an XML document of just under 1000KB.

This takes some time for the browser to read into memory and then for the flash script to do its job.

I was wondering if it would be worth considering an alternative XML vocabulary which is an abbreviated version of the current vocabulary. Maybe something which looks like :

<chart>
<categories>
<c l='2007-06-06' />
<c l='2007-06-07' />
</categories>
...
<data>
<s i='1' v='10' />
<s i='2' v='3' />
...
<data>
<chart>

An XML vocuabulary of this nature would reduce file sizes for the datasets I work with by up to 50%.
