Parameters for Chart.asp

Question

Hi All!

Is there any list of all the parameters that Chart.asp accepts? One thing I am trying to is to remove all of the text. The numbers can stay, put we want to want to provide these graphs for our German speaking customers. Most Germans speak English, but we would still like to be able to provide the graphs in German. Any help is appreaciated.

Regards,

Jim Mohr

Jim,
If you are trying to convert the English into German for charts, you may be better off changing the *.Charts files.
They are located in the C:\Program Files\SolarWinds\Network Performance Monitor directory.

Using an XML editor (or Wordpad if you are really desperate), your can change the English titles and legends to German.
I suggest you use an XML editor because it will ensure that you do not corrupt the XML structure while editing. If you corrupt the XML structure, the charts will stop working.
