Anyone handy with charts and graphs?

I am looking to build some custom graphs and charts based off form inputs. I can't get anything working with the shortcode. Is there more comprehensive chart/graph documentation or examples I could look onto? Thanks guys...I have some cool ideas, and I hope Formidable can help me pull it off!

Formidable interfaces with Google graphs to display graphs and charts. If you can build it in Google graphs, you can build it in Formidable. It may take some customization though. For example, the poster in this thread, http://community.formidableforms.com/help-desk/how-to-use-a-hidden-field-as-a-parameter-in-a-graph/, wanted a specific type of line graph. Formidable does not support this type of graph out of the box. When you want to plot multiple fields in a Formidable chart, Formidable's built-in formulas want you to count, total, or average the results. There is, however, the frm_graph_data filter that allows you to use a custom function to generate your own data points and bypass the calculations Formidable performs on your entries. This is really advanced custom development work. If you know how to code, you should have no problem.
