DataSource and chart with special chars in fieldnames not working

[Andreas]

Hi,

I am using the latest version of Kendo DataViz: 2013.3.1324

If I use whitespace or - in my charts field names all I get is errors. For example, my data looks like this (Chome log of datasource):

19: ct.extend.init
20: ct.extend.init
Bandwidth IN: 8.9
Bandwidth Out: 3.96
_events: Object
err-line: 30
name: 1390908600000
parent: function (){return r}
uid: "eb22f21c-41b7-47de-af24-8f4a86aa4a58"
__proto__: i


I get this error:

ReferenceError: line is not defined
at eval (eval at <anonymous> (http://192.168.99.30/kendo-2013.3.1324/js/kendo.dataviz.min.js:9:28980), <anonymous>:3:15)

at fn.extend.bindPoint (http://192.168.99.30/kendo-2013.3.1324/js/kendo.dataviz.min.js:16:18380)


If I change err-line to errline I get this error:

SyntaxError: Unexpected identifier

If I remove any other data except errline, the chart draws.

Is it possible to get a fix for this?

Hello Andreas,

This behavior is expected, since the Chart only supports field names that are valid JavaScript identifiers.
