Hi Leandro,

That is indeed in consequent, I will ask around at OutSystems, what the reason is for this.

Regards,

Daniel

Agree, I like opening up Outsystems own modules, just to learn how certain features have been implemented, and to get ideas I can use in my own components. I've been doing some work on Charts recently and would have saved some significant time (and avoided some errors) if I had been able to see how the regular Charts component worked.

Hello to all.

Sorry for such a late response.

Regarding the Charts component, it has some intellectual property that cannot be shared (some from OutSystems and other from the 3rd party library).

If being able to see the code is a big requirement, we can considerer if the component can be refactored in a way that it can be opened without compromising the same intellectual property that was mentioned before.

We will be collecting the feedback, so if many people ask for this, it will weight on our decision.

Thanks,

Bruno Martinho

Hello Bruno!

I created an idea so we can keep track of how many people want this. I really think a refactoring is the way to go, but since it is a Javascript component, we cant't assure this piece of code will be 100% protected.

Thanks for the response,

Leandro

Hello everyone,

We are currently facing a limitation regarding the Charts component and would appreciate your guidance.

We need to clone the Charts component for two main reasons:

1. There is a specific chart where we would like to pass additional information beyond what is currently supported.
2. We are planning to clone OutSystems UI to freeze the current version and proceed with an upgrade. Since Charts is a dependency and does not seem to be clonable, this creates a blocker for our approach.

Given this, we would like to understand:

• Is there any recommended way to extend or customise the Charts component beyond its current limitations?
• Is there a supported approach to handle this dependency when cloning OutSystems UI?

Any guidance or best practices would be highly appreciated.

Thank you in advance.
