Invient Charts, Problem with TimeZone - always in UTC

The Problem

It seemed that all my InvientChart 0.8.6 charts in Vaadin were two hours behind where they should have been. And because I live in GMT + 2 it seemed like a timezone issue.

The solution

Before adding your chart to the UI add this component

            try {
                CustomLayout cl = new CustomLayout(new ByteArrayInputStream("

".getBytes()));
                addComponent(cl);
            } catch (IOException ex) {
                //should never happen
                log.warn("Should never happen",ex);
            }
