I'm the Graphics Editor at the Dallas Morning News and I wanted to add to this request. We create about 10 charts a day, so I would welcome some updates to the Graph capabilities.

1. Add a label row and column similar to DeltaGraph. The other option is a button to enclose a column or row of numbers in quotes, so they act as labels. We often import stock data that uses number formatting for dates. To enclose each number in quotes is painfully tedious, so I rely on Excel functions to do it for me before I bring the data to Illustrator.

2. Add the option for a Thousands Separator This is a feature I miss from FreeHand. Without it, we have to manually insert commas into our value scale

3. Add user-defined chart styles A feature like this would be a huge time saver for publications that have a specific design styles. Colors, fonts, line weight and current graph settings could be set with the click of a button.

4. Create a preview option from the Graph Type dialog window Axis changes and Column and Cluster Width are trial and error without a preview.

5. And if you want to add more online functionality, create an option to make SWF charts with interactive data labels

Thanks for listening
