Bug in profile page chart

Question

Sign in to vote
There is a bug in the "Experience" page in the new profiles.

The Points History chart displays dates incorrectly. It shows totals by month, but messes up on January of each year.

If you highlight over the individual points in the chart, note the change from december of one year to jan. of the next. It goes, for example:

11/2009

12/2009

1/2009

2/2010

3/2010

My regional Settings are same as "M/d/yyyy" United States but i didn't see any problem. I have already attached snap shots. It might be related to your regional settings on your computer. See the screem shot attached for just reference; Charts are generating on the basis of lacal system settings. See if i change my time to '12-19-2010' how t will affect the graph;

Please let me know if this doesn’t work for you. Hope I have answered you correctly.

Thanks,
Hasham

HI Reed !

I haven't seen this problem on my profile. Can you please provide the screen shot. Also here is my profile page screens shot; Sum of Recognition Points is correct for me.

Please let me know if this doesn’t work for you. Hope I have answered you correctly.

Thanks,
Hasham

Hasham,

Unfortunately, this doesn't show in the screenshot you posted. It's a bug in the tooltip that appears (and is missing from the screenshots) when you mouse over the circled spots.

Your profile starts at 11/2010. Move your mouse over the dots - If it's doing what mine does, it'll show:

11/2010

12/2010

1/2010

2/2011

3/2011

...

Here's a screenshot of it in action:

Note the dates - the 1/2009 is out of order.

I ~think~ it's just a date display problem, and not a recognition system problem.

HI Reed !

I am sure there is something wrong with your browser / cache. Because i am not seeing it the way you are seeing it; Please take a look at what i am seeing from my browser i.e; Internet Explorer 9 , Windows 7.

Surely this has something to do with the scripting.

Please let me know if this doesn’t work for you. Hope I have answered you correctly.

Thanks,
Hasham

Hasham,

This happens to me in 2 different browsers (IE 9 & Chrome) on 3 different computers...

Richard Mueller (above) also mentioned that he sees the same behavior. It's odd that it works for you.

I can confirm that I'm seeing the same problem as you do using Chrome.

If you have got questions about this, just ask.

So it's not IE version or OS that accounts for this. Could it be the regional settings? My dates are m/d/yyyy, and I see the problem consistently.

FWIW I see it too in IE10 on W8. Short date format is ISO standard: YYYY-MM-DD. But a sequence of dates using the tooltip is: 12/2010 1/2010 2/2011 which bears no relation to the requested format, breaking it on at least 3 factors.
