Hello,
I'm building a Gantt chart in a web application, loading data from a remote source using a CustomDataAdaptor. By defining the "getData" function of the CustomDataAdaptor, I'm able to build a POST request to a specific server endpoint and retrieve the data to be shown in the chart. Through this method, I'm also able to implement Virtual Scrolling for performance improvement.
The Gantt chart I'm showing covers a time interval requested by the user and refers to a large database. For these reasons, there may be occasions when the chart is required to load a significant amount of data, and I'm thereby looking for an additional improvement in performance. Reading the documentation, I noticed the "Load Child on demand" option, which allows loading from the remote data source only the "parent" rows that are shown, leaving out the non-shown children.
I was wondering if there is any similar functionality that does not depend on the parent-child relationship between rows, something improving on Virtual Scrolling that would allow loading the data from the server only when the rows are supposed to be displayed.
I looked in the documentation for something of this sort but couldn't find anything. Could you confirm that the functionality I'm looking for does not exist?
Thank you.
