Hi folks,

I also am schematically challenged when it comes to getting range markers working on a scatter graph. I might not be understanding the markup correctly but it could also be a bug.

here is a simple scatter graph with one value: http://chart.apis.google.com/chart?chs=350x125&cht=s&chxt=r&chxl=0:%7C%7C45%7C90%7C135%7C180&chd=e:..,qG&chxp=0,0,22,45,68,90

here it is again with a range marker: http://chart.apis.google.com/chart?chs=350x125&cht=s&chxt=r&chxl=0:%7C%7C45%7C90%7C135%7C180&chd=e:..,qG&chxp=0,0,22,45,68,90&chm=r,E5ECF9,0,0.4,0.91

I thought I was 'schematically challenged', but trying different numbers for the range markers (fractions of 0, between 0-100, or over the range of the chart) didn't produce anything like the expected range marker.

bug?

thanks, Adam

Google Chart is awesome!  Thanks for building this service and making it publicly available!!

I found more bugs with scatterplots that, unfortunately, make the service unusable, currently, for what I am trying to do.

Here are the bugs I found:

Scatterplots don't supportrangemarkers. This request should generate a scatterplot with two data points and arangemarker
that is red from 25 to 50 on the x-axis. Instead, the chart contains no data points, and a redrangemarker from 0 to 50 (I assume the 50 value is based on the first data point).  I tried a bunch of different combinations of reordering values to see if I could find a workaround, but had no
luck.http://chart.apis.google.com/chart?cht=s&chs=200x125&chd=t:50,75|60,85&chxt=x,y&chm=R,ff0000,0,0.25,0.5

Scatterplots don't support more than one shape marker, and it appears the first one is applied to all data points. This request should generate a scatterplot with two data points, where the first data point is a blue dot and the second data point is a red square. Instead, the chart contains two data points, but both are blue
dots.http://chart.apis.google.com/chart?cht=s&chs=200x125&chd=t:50,75|60,85&chxt=x,y&chm=o,0000ff,0,1,6|s,ff0000,0,2,6

Scatterplots don't seem to support more than one pair of datasets, which is an understandable limitation, but not indicated by the documentation. This request should generate a scatterplot with two data points from two different data sets. Instead, the chart contains only one data
point.http://chart.apis.google.com/chart?cht=s&chs=200x125&chd=t:50|60|75|85&chxt=x,y

Please let me know if I am mistaken, or if there is anything I can do to help.

Thanks again, -Casey

Yes, this looks like a bug to me. I will investigate. Thanks for reporting, Uwe

Coloring of Datapoints when you have two sets of data does not work

Both the dots are in green . One them should be blue as indicated in legend.

To me this is a bug . Not sure if this working as intended or not.
