Realtime Support

A new API method – feedData has been introduced which can be used to add new data points or to update the existing ones in real-time. Users can also control the time spread to be displayed on the chart.

You can now take advantage of this API method to stream real-time data feed so that charts can automatically update themselves after every ‘n’ seconds, without any page refreshes.

Variable Canvas Height

We’ve introduced a new attribute canvasHeightProportion. This attribute can be used to control the height of different canvases in a multivariate chart. Users can specify different heights for canvases in the form of ratios, i.e., 1:2:1, 1:2:3:4, etc.

Legend Improvements

We’ve done multiple improvements to legend in this release exposing legend styling and various control options as below:

Users can now load charts with initial hidden data series which can be displayed by clicking on its respective legend item.
Users can now show or hide legend from the chart.

Other Improvements

Custom Range Selector in FusionTime is now mobile-responsive: This release includes multiple improvements to CRS optimizing it for usage in mobile and smaller screens; earlier CRS still unfolded a two-month calendar view and it was difficult to use it for smaller screens.
Support to provide custom height to the time navigator: This release enables users with ability to customize time navigator height in all time-series charts. Checkout an example here.
