As CF Studio 5 will be out a while after CF5 ships, a set of add-on VTM's
will be made available for Studio 4.5.2. They've already been written (so
you don't need to do so), and will be available when CF5 is available.

Hi All,

I'm just starting to play with the new CFGRAPH tag and I was wondering if
anyone's created any tag editor's for it?  I guess one will appear for
Studio 5.0 but just wondering anyway.
If no-one has I might just take a stab at it myself...

Thanks,
Kevin

Thank you Mr. Forta!

Just started looking at the graph tag and it's pretty cool that you can
create drilldown graphs by clicking on data points.

We were about to go out and get Crystal Reports but now we're just going to
wait until CF 5.0 comes out though it's a pain the Solaris release ain't
happening until August (surprised that HP was coming before Solaris?).

If we want to use CF 5.0 as a method of generating canned reports would it
be possible to save generated reports to a disk?  We want to generate them
at off-peak hours etc.

I know you can use CFFILE to write a file to disk, but would it work to
more-or-less put a whole report in the output attribute?  Can you run any CF
tags inside the output attribute?  Just that any accompanying graphics in a
report would have to be written to disk also

No tag editors yet, but Dave Gallerizzo just did a CFUG presentation on
CFGRAPH. If you're interested, you might take a look at this:

http://www.figleaf.com/figleafhome/cfug/cfugmay2001.zip

It's not much, but there are code samples. There'll be new VTM files
available shortly from Allaire.

Sure, you could schedule the creation of pages as you would any other CFM
pages.

But, the right way to do this is to let the graphic engine cache generated
graphs to improve performance - a feature available in CF Enterprise (but
not Pro).

2001-05-11 Thread Bryan LaPlante

Just as a heads up, if you have personal custom tags or download any from
the tag gallery and you would like a personal tag editor for them, go to
http://www.netwebapps.com/mytags/main.cfm and use the free custom tag
wizard. After you put in the parameters for the tag it will email you a .vtm
file for the tag editor.
If you want to click on the banner adds the spongers make it possible to
offer this tool for free.
