Hi, I'm Gregor, welcome to my blog where I mostly write about data visualization, cartography, colors, data journalism and some of my open source software projects.

Neue Visualisierung für die Piwik Browsers-Statistik

After writing down my latest ideas for better Piwik visualizations, I just couldn’t wait to see them in action. Since the Open Flash Chart library doesn’t support multi-level pie charts I decided to create the visualization from scratch. The initial version (0.1) took me about two hours coding. In the following image you can compare the hierarchical pie visualization (top) with the current pie visualization (bottom). I named the plugin UserSettingsExt as it extends the current UserSettings plugin. You can download it from the Piwik Developer Zone to test it on your own Piwik installation.

Changelog

  • 0.1 - basic pie chart drawing, label placement.
  • 0.2 - added standard piwik tooltips
  • 0.3 - added automatic resizing If you don’t want to miss any updates, you can subscribe to the plugins rss-feed at the Piwik Developer Zone. Feedback welcome.

Hy Gregor!

Super Plugin; sieht schick aus, läuft bei mir jedoch nicht!? Benutze zur Zeit Piwik 0.8 und die UserSettingsExt Version 0.3. In dem Widget bekomme ich angezeigt: “Die Darstellung von Graphen in Piwik erfordert Flash.”

Andere Flash-Obejkte funzen in meinem Browser, also das Flashplugin von Adobe ist installiert und funktioniert.

Die Meldung erhalte ich im FF 3.6.8, IE 7 + 8, Opera 10.60.

vlg, Fred*

Leider gibt es auf dieser Seite keinen Flattr - Button. Würde hier sonst auch noch gerne flattern
