33 This module currently supports views 1.x

35 Heres a basic run down on how to use it with views:
36 * In the fields section, choose one or more NUMERIC fields (the module currently does a sum on these fields). The module displays one bar/pie slice per field
37 * Choose "FusionChart View" from the view type dropdown (under either page or block)
38 * Choose "FusionCharts: ChartType" from the Arguments dropdown.
39 * The "Default" dropdown should be set to "display all values"
40 * Set something in the Label field
41 * The "Title" field should be set to the size of the chart eg "500x300"
42 * The "Option" box should be set to the type of chart you want drawn.
43 * The "Wildcard" box can be optionally set to "sum", "average", or "mode" In the case of "mode" the counts of each unique field will be charted.
