That's why the chart type buttons don't execute anything (just think of them as a way to select the chart type). The chart is not updated unless the user specifically clicks the "update" button. Otherwise, if the user e.g. wants a different chart type and different indicators, and selects the chart type first, the chart is unnecessarily updated (and data transferred) twice. > > 5.

In trunk the "Form is not complete" is replaced by something a bit more informative, like "No indicators selected", "No data elements selected" etc, but this will definitely be improved further. > > These are the few that readily comes to mind.
