According to the documentation, an error message should be displayed when exceeding the 1000 or 2000 object limit for charts rendered by JSChart. I have not seen this error message using Firefox (23.0.1) or IE (9.0.8112.16421 64 bit). Is this a browser issue?
When I look at the source HTML I do see code for a message, but it is not displayed, and that code is present even when there is no truncation:
<div class="JSChartContainer" style="width:100%; height:333px;"></div> <div class="inlineMessageContainer" style="display: none;">
<p class="resultStatusMessage">
<span class="inlineMessage">
Search generated too much data for the current display configuration, results have been truncated.
<span class="resultStatusHelp">
