Redrawing Charts

[octoberborn]

Is there currently a way to redraw a rendered chart with a simple js call? I'm wanting to make the charts more responsive and thought it could be an easy fix to attach a chart redraw function to window size event.

This would be great. It depends on the charting library (looks like Highcharts does, Google Charts doesn't after a quick search), but for Google Charts, we could render a new chart in the existing div.

+1 for this feature. ;)

One ask thought:

The way it is implemented now, the chart would fetch data from the server again. right?

Is it ok, or should it just redraw?

This feature isn't implemented right now (unless Highcharts does this automatically - can't recall), but we would not want it to refetch the data - just redraw.
