Full proposal: Proposal
Abstract
As there were some request about new chart types for BIRT the goal of my project is to add three new chart types.
- donut chart
- venn diagram
- radar diagram
Description
BIRT already provides several chart types for designing customs reports. I found some open bugs and help-wanted entries in bugzilla.
Donut chart
This chart will be implemented based on the existing pie chart.
