Issues converting Pie Chart to 3D

Hello all,
I am having issues within Illustrator CC. I created a Pie Chart and found a tutorial on how to convert it to 3D. Unfortunately whenever I Extrude and Bevel it, nothing happens. I turn preview on...no change. Nothing I am doing will convert it to 3D. This works just fine on a copy of CS6 I have on a different computer. Is there a setting that is off or something?
Thanks

That's odd. I was able to see the 3D effect applied to the graph fine on my end. Did you forget to select the pie chart before applying the effect?
If that's not the case, can you try resetting preferences (Adobe Illustrator * Setting preferences) or perhaps launch Illustrator in a new user account and see if that helps?
Let us know!

Regarding standardization of Colors in Pie chart Categories

Dear BI Experts,
I have an issue regarding Pie Charts in the WAD. When we have 5 categories defined in the Pie chart and each category has got its own defined color.
issue no 1: It is very difficult to go to each cahrt and select the colors for each chart in each category. Is there any place where we can define the colors in common?
issue no 2: When we have the data for all the categories it is doing good. In case of data not available for any purticular category the color defined for that category is coming for the next category. which shud not happen.
Is there any chance of solving this?
Anyone please help me in this concern. Very much awaited.
Regards,
Kishore.

Bhanu,
Sorry about the late response ... connectivity issues....
As for the color issue - you would have fixed colors to each series ... and when there is no data for one of them then that particular series is absent which would mean that the next series would take its place.
Example :
Original query -
4 categories with 4 colors
If one of the categories does not have data then the query would have 3 categories and category 4 would take the place of category 3 and hence the issue of the colors...
I was not able to simulate the same however ....
1. If you had the same data set in Excel - are the colors proper- any Standard data set / BeX chart
2. Is there anyway you can fix the number of categories by way of restricted Key figures etc ? then if that category is present in the query even if there is not data the colors should be maintained.
Arun
Hope it helps...

SBOP 4.0 Web Intelligence (Question regarding Pie Charts)

Hi Everyone,
I am having a strange issue with Pie Charts in Webi 4.0 version.
I have a webi report migrated from 3.1 version to 4.0 and I see that the Webi report in 3.1 version shows an empty Pie chart when the metrics for that chart are zero's where as the same Webi report in 4.0 does not show any thing.
My requirement is to show atleast a plane empty pie chart when the metrics for that chart are zeros. I could not see any option in Webi 4.0 to help me achieve that, also I don't see any option in 3.1 version that is allowing it to show an empty pie chart but still it is showing empty pie chart. So I am not sure if this a bug in Webi 4.0 or if I am missing any setting.
Please let me know if anyone had this issue and resolved it. Any comments will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks & Regards,
SRV

On XI 3.x, I believe the default appearance settings are governed by an XML file (defaultConfig) and can be changed, if you know what you're doing.
In my installation, the path is:
(INSTALLDIR)...\Business Objects\Tomcat55\webapps\AnalyticalReporting\webiApplet\AppletConfig\defaultConfig.xml
Example:
Can't comment on 4.x though, it may well have changed completely....IIRC it's all CSS based now isn't it?
Edit: Yep - see here: Cascading Style sheet modify for webi in 4.0 | SCN

Excel 2007 pie chart conversion issue

I'm having issues converting my Excel 2007 spreadsheet that contains several pie charts into pdf. It will convert fine for everything but the pie charts. Their edges or outlines look perfect in Excel and the print preview, but once converted to pdf they're all choppy and rough looking. How can I fix this, as it makes the pdf look very unprofessional. I'm on Vista with all the latest updated, use office 2007 with all updates installed and adobe acrobat 8 with all the updates. I tried converting it through the acrobat feature in excel, as well as the print to pdf option. I even went so far to reinstall office 2003, with the same result. the pies were looking a bit smoother, but still way too choppy. how can i get adobe to convert perfect circular pie charts?
thanks!

From the ribbon>Acrobat>Create PDF. This gives me the ability to choose which tabs I want to include in the report.
I made PDF Printer my default and it worked! Thanks!
Why do you think my ribbon function doesn't work?

OBIEE 11.1.1.5.0 Patch13832750 - Pie Chart 3D issue

Hi,
Since i apply the patch 13832750 I have an issue with 3D Pie chart.
The chart is malformed, there are lines which fall outside the graph..
I uninstalled the patch but the issue persists.
Have you already see this problem?
Thanks,
Adrien

Haven't seen this issue, but I may be able to help with two suggestions:
1. NEVER use pie charts, they don't display information well
2. Never add 3d clutter to any type of chart, it only makes the chart more difficult to process and understand
Great source for information on this is Stephen Few at http://perceptualedge.com
Hope this helps,

MV 11gPr1 - variable pie chart issue

Hi,
Trying out advanced style - variable pie chart - we faced some issue - if data source contains bigger numbers (e.g. 100000,200000....) something causes that radius of all pies is the same. with smaller values (10,20...) the pie radius is variable.
thanks,

Hi Joao,
here is the definition of that advanced style:
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<AdvancedStyle>
<VariablePieChartStyle startradius="25" increment="15">

Pie Chart issue

What is the solution of the following scenario, i am using the Dundas charting control
shawn aslam

Hi Rashmi,
Thanks for your reply. But unfortunately it was not solving my issue. Because I am using Pie chart where there are no series. It has only categories. So i cannot set which column to show and which column to hide. Also I am having only one column marked as visible in my query so i think i do not need to mention any settings in the web templates. Also I am publishing the graphs in portal so excel settings is also not needed for me.
Thanks .

Issues with multilevel pie chart drill down with push button

I am new to Xcelsius. I am trying to build a multilevel pie chart drill down (one pie chart drilling down to another etc) and I am able to achieve that. Now I want to add a Back Button using Push Button so that I can go up. When I preview, the Push Button goes into two state and I have to double click to go back. Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong. I am using the latest Xcelsius. [The source code is here|http://www.woofiles.com/dl-195360-3lTyVM8Z-piechartdrilldownwithpushbutton.xlf]
Thankyou.

Hi Murali
This is exactly the same what i tried to do,
Drill down to 4 levels State -> City-> store etc with 4 pie charts and similar push button to close each level to
go back to previous chart, first run from 1 to 4 works fine, then after closing all the levels and when i am at the pie chart 1
if i click any pie slice it will jump to Pie chart 4 straight,
I tried tracking the issue, all i could find is some how the previous dynamic visibility values are back even after erasing
the data with the PUSH button (Destination cell insertion with blank or 0).
did you find a solution for this issue ?
Thanks
Chandra

Creating pie chart diagram in java and converting into BMP file

hi all ,
my req. is to create draw a pie chart diagram and store
the picture in BMP. it is Possible. if so how ?
cheers
senthil

Hi Senthil,
This response is a bit late but I hope it can help in some way. Your requirement (to create draw a pie chart diagram and store the picture in BMP) is possible and actually quite easy if you don't mind using two open source libraries. In his previous response to this thread, Detlev mentioned JFreeChart for as a solution for charting however he also mentioned that it lacks support for BMP. Although this is true, you can use the JFreeChart library (http://www.jfree.org/jfreechart/index.html) in conjunction with an imaging library to meet your requirement. I have used JFreeChart on multiple projects and I highly recommend it. For the imaging library you have many options, however the only one I have used is The Java Imaging Utilities (JIU - http://jiu.sourceforge.net/). Using these two class libraries, you can generate your pie chart and save it to a BMP file with the following block of code:
     try
         JFreeChart chart = this.createChart();
         FileOutputStream streamOut = new FileOutputStream("your/files/path/BMPfile.bmp");
         BufferedImage image = chart.createBufferedImage(600, 300);
         if(image == null)
              reportError("Chart Image is NULL!!!!!!!!");
              return(false);
         RGB24Image rgbImage = ImageCreator.convertImageToRGB24Image(image);
         Codec codec = new BMPCodec();
         codec.setImage(rgbImage);
         codec.setOutputStream(streamOut);
         codec.process();
         codec.close();
         streamOut.flush();
         streamOut.close();
    }catch(IOException ioExcept)
         // throw or handle IOException...
         return(false);
    }catch(OperationFailedException opFailedExcept)
         // throw or handle OperationFailedException...
         return(false);
The first line inside the catch block calls a helper method that should create the actual chart using the JFreeChart library. Once you have your chart instance (all chart types are represented using the JFreeChart class), you can then retrieve a BufferedImage of the chart (JFreeChart.createBufferedImage(int width, int height);). In our situation, the BufferedImage class will act as an "intermediate" class, for both libraries (the charting and imaging) can make sense of BufferedImages. The rest of the code deals with storing the generated chart (the BufferedImage) as a BMP file to disk. The RGB24Image, Codec, BMPCodec, CodecMode, and OperationFailedException classes are all part of the JIU library. Also, note that the storage source is not solely limited to a File on disk; the Codec.setOutputStream(OutputStream os) method will accept any subclass of OutputStream. This implies that not only can you store to the actual App Server disk (where your app is running) but also to sources such as Knowledge Management (KM) resources or even directly to the clients browser (in the case of an iView).
Once again, sorry for the late response and let me know if you have any questions regarding the code above.
Regards,
Michael Portner

Crystal 2008 Pie Chart Display Issues

Hello all,
I am having some problems with the Crystal Viewer displaying charts and legends. Basically, what is going on is, I have a report that displays a pie chart and legend containing data on departments within a store. I have 39 departments that need to show in the chart/legend, but only about 33 show up on the chart and 24 show up in the legend. Does anyone have any ideas if this is a limitation of the chart or anything?
TIA
-Coty

There is no limitations for pie chart and legend. maximise the chart through edge draging.it shows all(increase the chart size)...
All the best,
Praveen
