Description Markus Elfring 2019-12-27 13:54:18 UTC
I imagine that chart objects can support query interfaces.
I suggest to map these data sources to field functions which can be adjusted by the dialogue “Fields”.

Doubt this works, chart is just a different module. Regina, anything to add in respect to the format definition?

Will this issue get any more helpful input from other contributors?

I believe it's not possible since charts are kind of self-contained objects. You open it in another tool. 

But let's keep the ticket alive. Request is to dynamically update charts via fields.

Thanks for such a response.

How does this feedback fit to my initial clarification request?
