Charts definitions not saved with report #132

Closed mlamy closed 10 years ago

mlamy commented 10 years ago

In pivot4-analytics when the user opens a report it always open with Grid selected and it ignores that the report was saved with a chart selected. I noticed that charts feature is still open so maybe this on the project to-do list. I think it will be a rather important enhancement to the pivot4-analytics application.

Report saved with chart: reportchartsaved

Open after report saved with chart: reportopenafterchartsaved

Thanks for the report. Actually, it's intentional, as I regard the current chart implementation to be rather like a 'technical preview' of what I hope would come later. (That's why I still haven't closed #111)

As such, the related API is volatile at this moment so I thought fixing the report format would be too risky as if I change the related format later it might break existing reports users made.

So, please be patient until #111 is done properly. I'm not sure if I could do it before 0.9 release, but I'll definately fix it before 1.0 release proper.

Thanks!
