Anychart pie chart - setting colours to match output (RAG)

Hi,
I have a table detailing outstanding issues each with a traffic light status of either red, amber or green. I would like to create an anychart pie chart whose colours match their status to give an easy visual representation of the data.
I have managed to get it working if there's data in the table for each status type; I've used customised colours in the pie chart and used ORDER by in my SQL (the order of the customised colours listed to match the order of the SQL output), however, if one of the status' has a null value, the colours are assigned Amber 1st, Green 2nd and Red 3rd meaning that if there are no issues of Amber status the green status issues will be amber in colour on the pie chart etc.
Is this possible to assign specific colours and if so how can I do it?
I'm working on Apex 3.2.1.
Thanks in advance

I've managed to sort this now.
In case anyone is interested, I created a view that would display the totals for each RAG status including a 0 if total is null and then set custom colours for the pie chart in the order to match the SQL output (i.e. A (amber) first, G (green) second, R (red) third). Simple but it works for my needs.

Pie chart: setting colors of series via DBF

Hello,
I am working with Crystal Reports XI on a report that's creating a pie chart from a DBF file.
The DBF, the report obtains it's data from, can contain a variable number of data. Due to this, the number of series, the chart is made up of, cannot be predictet in advance.
Now, my question is:
Is it possible to make each of the chart's series retrieve it's own color from a cell in the DBF file?
In advance, thanks for your help!
Sascha.

SSRS 2008 Chart legend colours not matching series colour.

Hi,
I believe this issue has been raised before. In SSRS 2005 & 2008 R2 though I am yet to find a solution other than a lengthy (messy) workaround.
I have a chart based on the following data:
Data field - Count(ChangeID)
Category - Change_Categorisation (ie. Maintenance, new hardware etc)
Series - Change_Timing (Emergency, expedited, normal etc)
So i am using a stacked column chart to show the category along the X axis and stack the number of changes by their timing.
In the Series colour setting i am using the expression:
=iif(Fields!Change_Timing.Value="Emergency","Red",iif(Fields!Change_Timing.Value="Expedited","Orange","SteelBlue"))
I have also tried
=Switch(Fields!Change_Timing.Value="Emergency","Red",Fields!Change_Timing.Value="Expedited","Orange",Fields!Change_Timing.Value="Normal","SteelBlue")
In all cases the legend only seems to refer to the first column in the chart to pick up colours.
For example.
The first column for December is Maintenance changes. There are 2 emergency & 1 normal. the only expedited change is in another column (new hardware).
So the legend shows Emergency as RED, Normal as SteelBlue and Expedited as Steelblue.
no matter what I do the legend only picks up the colours from the first category. so if the fist category only has 1 timing (eg- Normal). Every item in the legend has the Normal colour (Steelblue)
Surely there is a fix for this that doesnt involve creating a table to the side of the graph which seems like a really basic way to deal with this issue. I may as well go back to the dark ages and use Excel for my reports or bloody draw them on paper.
:) calming down now. Thanks for any input on this.

Hi,
I have reproduced the issue you posted as the following picture shows. The color of series group “AAA” in the legend is not as the same as the color as the third column.
Based on my testing, it occurs when the chart meets the following conditions:
1.
Use decision function to specify the Series colors.
2.
The data value of the chart using the aggregate
Count.
3.
One series group is not contained in the first category column.
It is my pleasure to help you reflect the issue to the proper department, and you can also submit it at

Colour coding slices of pie chart

Hi,
I'm generating a pie chart from a list of traffic light colours (red, amber, green) and would like to colour the pie slices to match the colour reported i.e. the red segment should be red etc.
I've seen an example here:
http://htmldb.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=11933:32
which I have got to work but this only works if all of the colours are returned i.e. each of the status indicators have a value greater than zero. If any of the status indicator values have zero occurences then the coulours get mismatched. I assume this is because the slices are coloured in order of display. I tried to correct this by forcing each status to be selected even if the occurence was zero but this seems to give me bizarre results with the pie chart displaying the top portion in the wrong place.
Has anyone got any ideas that might help resolve my problem?
Cheers,
Andy

Hello,
What you can do is set a hidden page item to the proper css using some plsql to output the css you want based off of a query.
And then use that item in the custom css area as an Item substitution.
Example
set page item value SVG_CSS using some plsql logic to
#data1 ,rect.data1 ,path.data1{fill:#f00;}
#data2 ,rect.data2 ,path.data2{fill:#0f0;}
#data3 ,rect.data3 ,path.data3{fill:#00f;}
and in the Custom CSS attribute use &SVG_CSS.

I have no idea how to set up a pie chart for tracking spending with categories

This is what I want to do to help me track my credit card spending.
I want to make a Numbers sheet where i can jot down how much money i spent on a item, and what category that item would go with (example, food, electronics, gas, so on).
and then i want to have a pie chart that will show much how much money i'm spending in each category and how much of a percentage of the total each category takes up of the whole.
I have no idea how to set this up in a sheet. I tried typing it in a few times and every time i go to make a pie chart, it never shows me any of the results i want to see.
can someone please help me set up a sheet to be able to get this information to display correctly in a pie chart?

Brad,
Create a table with the categories and the data (for now you can make up the data):
Now add a chart from the Charts menu in the toolbar:
Now click the "Add Chart Data" button just below the chart.
Now select data (from column B) in the table. Last trick is to click the menu at the bottom-left corner of the window and change the selection to "Plot rows as series" :
Now add formulas to the table to properly summarize the data from your data entry table using the sumif() function.

Pie chart legend showing digit "1" when we set "ignore blank cells"property

All,
We have pie chart in Xcelsius 2008 that shows the data with legend value and we have also set the ignore blank cells property to ignore the blank value from column. but once we set this property, it displays the digit "1" in the legend when there is no data.
we are expecting that nothing should be displayed in pie chart legend when there is no data for the pie chart.
Thanks,
Sourabh

hi Sourabh,
I could replicate your scenario.
Workaround is to create a duplicate of this chart. Go to properties of this new chart.
Go to Appearance ->
Uncheck
- Legend
- Mouse-over values
- Data Labels
for this chart.
Write a logic in excel using 'IF' to verify if your data is empty.
Use 'Dynamic Visibility' feature to display this chart only when your data is empty.
Display your original chart if your data is not empty.

PIE Chart Color Highlight - setting colors

Hi
PIE Chart showing default colors even after setting the diffent colors to OIE chart slices from Color Highlight tab.
PIE chart is showing only one slice when I select Data for the PIE Char is "For all records".
Could you please let me know how to set the different colors for slices?
Thank you

hi,
As you are selecting 'Color Highlight' for different Pie Slices, "For all records" option shouldn't be selected.
It should be "On Change of".
Then obviously you will see the colors specified in 'Color Hghlight' tab.

Setting Destination URI of a Pie Chart Graph Programatically-OA Framework

Hi All,
I have created a OF Page with the following Regions one under the other:
1. PageLayoutRN
2. HideShowHdr1 - Hide/Show Header
3. TblLayout1RN - Table Layout
4. Tbl1RowLayout1RN - Table Row Layout
5. Row1CellFormat1RN - Cell Format
6. Row2CellFormat2RN - Cell Format
Basically I have a page with a hide/show header, which contains a table with 1 Row and 2 Columns, where 1 column contains an advanced table and the 2nd contains a Graph (Pie Chart).
In the Row2CellFormat2RN, I have a GraphTable Region under the name PieChart1RN, which contains a graph called graph1 of style Pie.
As per the OA Framework Development Guide (744832.1) for R12.1.1 on Graphs (Page 255), a Code snippet is provided for setting the Destination URI of the graph programatically.
This code is as follows:
if(webBean.getUINodeName().equals("region3"))
   OAGraphTableBean g2 =(OAGraphTableBean)webBean;
   g2.setDisplayDataMarkers(0, true);
   g2.setDrillDownUrl(0, "OA.jsp?page=/oracle/apps/ak/pages/FWK_TEST_AGR_SUM&akRegionApplicationId=601&sal={@Salary}");
   //Test line graph with data markers and drill-down
   g2.setDisplayToolTip(1,true);
   g2.setDisplayDataMarkers(1, true);
   g2.setDrillDownUrl(1,"http://www.oracle.com");
} I have tried using this code to set the Destination URI for my graph.
However, it does not work.
I do not understand which region name to specify as when I displayed the value contained in webBean.getUINodeName(), it refers to PageLayoutRN.
In short, I am not being able to set the Destination URI. Even though I have ensured the Bubble Text Property is set to True.
Can someone pls. help me into adapting this code to my context?
Thks
Ravi

Hi Kumar,
I have already done it.
However, it still does not work.
The controller code looks like it does not recognise my graph region at all.

Pie Chart Creation from set of Columns.

Hi all,
I have got a query in BW. the Query output looks like.
A B C D E F
1 2 2 3 4 5
So now the o/p gives a clear view that there are no rows in my Query. Now on the basis of this query i want to make a pie chart showing all the values of ABCDEF in it.
Please help me to build this.
Regards,
Soumyadeep.

Hi
Littile modification in last reply. You can create chart based on ristricted Key figures, only if that structure is in Columns. Now for your query you can create separate pie chart for A, B, C etc.
As these will be treated as separate 'Data Series' & you cannot club more than one data series in pie chart. You have to create Bar or Column chart.

Sandeep

Hey guys, I'm having trouble matching the colour of the image back ground (white) with the pre-set colour selection. is there a tool that can help me? thanks

hey guys, I'm having trouble matching the colour of the image back ground (white) with the pre-set colour selection. is there a tool that can help me? thanks

Your description of the problem is not quite clear so I made certain assumptions. I hope I am rigtht. I believe you have a color patch such as this:
that you would like to place in an image area that has modeling in its white background. You do not want to lay in a flat color but rather to add a color and not lose the modeling or other background tone. The problem is, after making the selection, if you use Edit > Fill and set the Blending mode to Color, the white background remains white. The only colored background area may be an object's shadow or some similar area that is not pure white. (Image 2) It is an unsatisfactory result.
If that is an accurate description of the problem, consider this:
Image 1: The original image
Image 2: Edit > Fill with the Blending mode set to Color. White remains white
Image 3: Mode changed to Lab Color. Edit > Fill with the Blending Mode set to Color. Then return to RGB.
(I would not normally use this green as a replacement color but since it is a Tiffany clock, I chose a light version of Tiffany's trademark color.)

Customizing colour in Pie chart

Hi Experts,
In my scenario there is a Pie chart which shows the completion and pending of work in percentage. I have done this by creating a category and a series and the pie chart is getting displayed for completion and pending work in default colours. Now i want to customize these default colours, i need to display the completed status in Red and Pending status in green.
If this is possible please help me out in achieving this.
Thanks
Sarathy.

R6i = Pie-Chart only without a legend possible & colour fix ?

I try to create a pie-chart with a legend. It is possible to set the flag for the legend on, but it don't show me one. Only with other charts it shows.
Is this correct and is there another way to create a legend ?
Are the colors from the pie always the same (fixed/defined) or can I fix it ?
Thanks for you help. Roger

Hi Shishir,
Bad news for you... I think the only way to do it is by creating and adding the chart dynamically in the code.

Problems with pie chart formatting - APEX v2

Hi - I have created a region with an SVG Pie Chart and set the CSS to display the three segments as red, yellow and green using one of the examples from a previous forum posting. That all works fine, but I still have two issues with the chart:-
- the legend is displaying too big and is overlapping the right hand region border which looks messy. Is there anyway to force the size of the legend as there is lots of blank space to the right of the labels/values?. If not, is there any way to get the legend to display at the bottom of the area rather than to the side of the chart?
- the pie chart is 3D but the colours are only displaying on the side, not the top. Is there something I need to set to get this to work OK? Current CSS included below.
Thanks Caroline
