Nectar formatting issue

Post by ARC1450 »

I'm running Nectar .32 on .8.7h with PIA 2.9 and I'm trying to figure out why when I specify 2 graph columns on the "details" page, when I do a "preview" I only get 1 column of graphs when I specify to use a tree.

Any help would be appreciated.

Back from Denver, have had a quite extensive sleep. Got some breakfast but being quite tired, still. Perhaps I make up my mind to write some lines of code today.

Sorry, forgot I'd asked about this. . .

Anyway, screen shots attached.

Likely has something to do with the 'size' of the images.

I thought that at first, too. But I have reports with images 600 pixels wide that do double columns just fine, and I've switched this report to images 400 pixels wide and it's still a no-go.

The only difference is that the double columns pop up when I select one graph at a time. It goes back to single columns when you tell Nectar to go down through the tree and pull the graphs on its own.

Check the attached zip file. (Sorry, I got tired of forcing people on slower connections to download pretty pictures. :) )

Post a picture of your Tree as it appears from the Graph tab. I'm interested in the 'leaves' especially.

Likely it has something to do with the separation of the Templates/Data Queries.

Do you have the latest SVN copy? Just want to make sure.

Nope. This is a production box, and while I like to live dangerously and on the edge, I'm not the biggest fan of SVN. I've had some problems with betas in the past that haven't given me warm and fuzzies.

Well, after you upgrade, post again. Until then. Your on your own.

:cry:

Okay, you talked me into it. :lol: I'll go poke around and try to find the SVN for it.

Worst that can happen is I have to rebuild the server, right? :lol:

[edit]Pardon my not-so-smartness, but how exactly does one download the zip/tarball of the latest revision of a plugin with Windows? I can see individual files in the browser, but I'm not sure how to grab them all.
