Chart isn't updating with Response data (Chart.js: 3.2.1, ng2-charts: 3.0.0-beta.9)

[nerkess]

I am using Chart.js of version 3.2.1 and ng2-charts of version 3.0.0-beta.9. I was upgrading a project with this versions. I started with mock data and everything was ok: the charts were showing up as expected.

Until I started testing with the real data, I get from the backend. The axes, labels, legends are not updating and charts are not showing up.

I reproduced the problem here:

@nerkess would you be able to try this again with 3.0.0-rc.1?

@santam85 Thank you for the reply!
I installed 3.0.0-rc.1 in my Stackblitz project, but without success:

You can temporarily work around the issue by calling .render() instead of .update(). I will have a look in the meantime.

I was using chart.update()
With chart.render() the chart updates with versions 3.0.0-beta.9 and 3.0.0-rc.1

@nerkess released 3.0.0-rc.2 with a small fix for this. Tested it in your stackblitz and seems to work with .update() now (or even without it altogether, depending on the parameters used). You should get better performance with that.

@santam85 yes, it's working without update too, that's pretty cool 👍 thank you for your contribution!
