Feature Description Status
First and last items appear half cut in financial series charts In financial series the first and the last data items do not appear entirely on the chart view but are plotted as if they are cut in half.
Chart animation disabled when axis range changes If you use the Motion Framework for charts and updated data causes Y-axis range to be changed then all chart animation is disabled and new data to appear immediately without any motion effect.
Monolith shadows do not allow for the blur effect to be applied to them When the useSingleShadow property of the series is set to "true", the shadowBlur setting is disregarded and no blur is applied to the shadow.

First and last items appear half cut in financial series charts

In financial series the first and the last data items do not appear entirely on the chart view but are plotted as if they are half cut.

A new feature of data charts will be implemented in future releases that will solve this problem.

Chart animation disabled when axis range changes

If you use the Motion Framework for charts and updated data causes Y-axis range to be changed then all chart animation is disabled and new data appear immediately without any motion effect.

The solution to this problem is to select an appropriate range for the Y-axis of your chart and set the minimumValue and maximumValue options accordingly which will prevent axis range changes.

Monolith shadows do not allow for the blur effect to be applied to them

When the useSingleShadow property of the series is set to "true", the shadowBlur setting is disregarded and no blur is applied to the shadow. This is a deliberate limitation due to a Google® Chrome™ bug and extended to all major browsers thus ensuring consistent behavior across all of them. This behavior is subject to change once the aforementioned Chrome issue is resolved.

If you need to apply blur to the shadow, use the Compound type of shadow (useSingleShadow: true).
