The Apex ACP bèta is here!

If you want to convert your Anychart 3 charts to Anychart 4.2.1, I have some great news! You can do it now, for free! Check these demo's.

Today I added the download link on the Apex Anychart Conversion Package website.
This means the first (bèta) release is public. And you're all invited to download and try the Apex ACP.

If you want to install the package, please have a look at my installation guide and video here: Installation Guide
I've also added the installation video to this post at the bottom.

If you find any bugs, you're more then welcome to share your problems, right here: Report a bug


Well, I hope everyone will have little problems installing the package. And I hope we don't have to use those Anychart 3 charts anymore.

I'm very interested in your opinion, so throw me a line if you want in the comments !

The Apex Anychart Conversion Package (ACP) featurelist

Status,

I've nearly finished the first version of the Apex ACP, the first conversion package for Oracle Apex to upgrade your existing charts to Anychart 4 while still having the power of the Apex builder wizards and chart configurations. And the best thing is, it is absolutely free!

Anychart 4.2.1 is allready supplied in the standard version of Oracle Apex, so you're making the best use out of the available resources.

Site,

I've created this site: http://www.apexacp.blogspot.com

On this site you can view the features and known limitations of the ACP. When the package becomes available (or, when I finally get the time to make an installation script ;) ) it will be available here to. For now, you can view the features and the video demo's I've created.

Plugin,

Inspired by Patrick Wolf's Apex Builder Plugin, I've create an Apex ACP Plugin for the greaseMonkey firefox plugin. With this plugin you'll be able to convert your chart with the click of a button.

You can also find a new demo on the Apex ACP site !
