In my kendo chart ( http://jsbin.com/eWIniqi/1/edit ) it renders properly with correct grouping etc. unless the data is missing a Code: "No" for a month.

If you remove one of the Code: "No" for a month, the categoryAxis label disappears ( http://jsbin.com/aQaXorE/2/edit ).  I can remove a yes or not specified, and the categoryField shows up fine ( http://jsbin.com/aQaXorE/3/edit ).

My data is being pulled from some evaluations that are done and may not have all three fields represented (Ideally we would only have Code: "yes" responses).
Is there some way to make sure the categoryAxis field label is shown, or perhaps there is a better way to build this chart ?

Thanks

Robin

Hello Robin,

The observed behaviour is expected - by design the categorical charts require a matching set of data points (the value can be null but the records needs to be presented in the data). If there is a different number of data points you should use the series.categoryField option. For your convenience I updated the jsBin example with removed Code: "No".

This is really not a great design.  The grouping should auto zero values that are missing.  Not only does it not display properly, it complete changes the sorting of the data.  I would like to add this a feature request.  This would allow charts to move beyond just the most basic implementations.

Hello, Doug,

Thank you for the feedback.

I can suggest submitting this feature request in our feedback portal, so other people from the Kendo UI community can vote for it as well:

http://kendoui-feedback.telerik.com/forums/127393-kendo-ui-feedback?category_id=46450

I can also suggest describing the different results which are expected as we made the series.categoryField for this scenario, but I can assume that you have other improvements to suggest as well.

Thank you in advance.

Regards,
Stefan
