Axis options in chart

Hello everyone, I am a new LabVIEW user and I am using version 8.20
I am trying to do a real-time plot of voltage vs. temperature but I cannot find the correct chart that I need. I have two sets of data (voltage and temp.) that I want to plot on a chart, but I cannot find a chart where I can specify the axes. I want to be able to specify temperature for the x-axis and voltage for the y-axis (like you are able to do with the express xy graph vi). I cannot use the express xy vi because graphs do not remember past data points and I want a continuous voltage curve over a range of temperatures.
I know the answer is probably very simple but I've spent two days trying to figure this out by using bundles and such with no luck.

The Express XY Graph is perfectly capable of remembering past data points. There is an input called Reset, The default value for this is true. Wire a false constant to it. You can also look up the shipping example called XY Chart. It uses a subVI to make an XY Graph behave just like a chart with a history size that you can specify.

Automatic axis description for charts in BEx 7.0

In BEx Analyzer 7.0, if I have a simple table and hit the 'Chart' button, it creates the graph but does not put the descriptors on the X axis. The X axis has numbers (the same amount as the number of rows). What I want is for it to automatically populate the description instead of putting a number.
Here is what I get.
100 |
50

How can I have the X axis automatically put in dexcriptors instead of numbers?

Hi Ronald,
The chart Report will show, what ever is displayed in your table Report. Probably you have selected. Right click on Chart and select "Select Data" and see waht is selected for Rows and columns. For example in first column you have customer and if it is set as display Key in table it will show you Key in chart as well.
Do some Trial and error with "Select Data source" option in Chart, you will get the desired result.

Changing the Axis Names in Chart

Hi All,
Do we have an option to change the name of the axis in the chart ? I have 3 bar type charts, instead of the common field names I want the custom names to be displayed. Is it possible, please suggest.
Thanks
Natraj

Hi,
Yes this is possible, if you go to 'Edit View' on your chart. Just under your report title there is a small button, if you hover over it you'll see the label is "Axis titles and labels". It's displayed as a small chart icon with an 'A' in it.
Thanks

Value axis in WAD Chart

Hello Experts
I am using a Chart web-item in a WAD web template. Now I have set up the value axis and the sample data property of the chart with a minimum value = -500 and max value = 3000. However, when I execute the web template on the portal the value axis show a strange behaviour with a max value = 0 and min value = -250000.
Has any one encountered a similar problem?
Looking forward for your help.
Thanks
Rishi

Adding weekday name to x-axis in a chart

I am trying to add a weekday name to the horizontal axis in a chart (SSRS).
In horizontal Axis Properties I went to number, then Custom, and added:
=(WeekdayName(Fields!Date.Value))
It nearly works. I have put in this week's dates into the parameters (23/02/2015 - 28/02/2015) but the x-axis is showing the dates as numbers, eg 23 - 24 - 25. I'd love to see the words Monday, Tuesday et al in there instead.
When setting up the chart I have Fields!Date.Value as the category group, at the moment grouped on =day(Fields!Date.Value)
Any suggestions on how to get 'Monday', 'Tuesday' etc to appear would be much appreciated.
I have tried
=weekdayname(weekday(Fields!Date.Value)). This partly works but unfortunately repeats the day of the week the report was run, eg Monday Monday Monday rather than Monday Tuesday Wednesday et al.
Thanks.

Hi William,
According to your description, you want to display the weekday name on the x-axis in a chart, right?
In your scenario, you can specify the both category group value and group expression as weekday name values. Please refer to steps below:
1. The original chart which x-axis values display as date.
2. Specify the x-axis Label and Group on expression like below:
=weekdayname(weekday(Fields!date.Value))
Then preview the report, the a-axis values will display as weekday name.
If you have any question, please feel free to ask.
Best regards,

Charts - more than one dimension object on the x axis of the chart

Is it possible to add more than one dimension object on X axis of the chart ? I have two reports - one for bookings revenue for rolling 12 months period and other for forecast revenue for forward going 12 months. I have been asked by my manager to produce one chart showing 12 months rolling bookings plus revenue forcast going forward 12 months in one chart. Is it possible? and if so then how to go about to accomplish it.
Thanks for the help in advance.
- Fizza

hi
i think it is posible. for exaple on x axis can include year, months. on y axis may include sales revenue.
or
what dimensions are you going to put on the x axis and y axis?

Want a constant time axis in waveform chart

hello,
my time axis in waveform chart is changing .how can i keep it constant say 1-100 .the whole point of this is to make waveform chart luk like a CRO.please need help.
thanks in advace
naveen.rabelli

I don't think what you're asking for is possible, due to the nature of the chart - it accepts Y values and inserts the X value automatically. Offhand, I can think of 3 solutions -
The bad one - constantly change the offset by moving it backwords. You will probably have flickering.
The workaround one - Paste a text box over the first number saying 1 and another over the second number saying 100.
The probably most correct one - Use a XY graph. Just have a 1D array of 100 elements and append it to a second 1D array with 1..100. Wire the 2D array into the graph terminal.
Try to take over the world!

Axis options

I just picked up numbers in a hope of getting completely out of Microsoft's clutches, but there are two things I absolutely have to be able to do in my charts that I can't figure out.
1. Can I reverse the y-axis so the lowest numbers are on top (making a plot by depth)?
2. Can I connect points in a scatter plot?

Amphioxus wrote:
I'm experiencing micropaleo's problem as well. The line-plot option doesn't seem to work if I want to plot my y-values (e.g. voltage) against my x-values (e.g. time steps in 50ms). Line plot assumes that each column contains data points and produces two plots. It then just takes the cell number as the labels on the abscissa.
As far as I can tell, only the scatter plot allows you to graph arbitrary x-values against arbitrary y-values.
This is exactly right. A line plot might be considered as having a categorical x-axis and a continuous y-axis, whereas with a scatter plot, both axes are continuous. A further distinction might be drawn in that on a line chart the x-axis data is ordered, and on a scatter plot, the data is unordered.
But there's no option (that I could find) to connect your dots with a line if you so choose. (Of course I didn't even get that far because I can't control both axes limits independently, but that's another story...)
Yes, I don't think there is a way to connect the dots on a scatter plot currently in Numbers. This is why Yvan is encouraging people to provide feedback to Apple using the "Provide Numbers Feedback..." item in the "Numbers" menu of the application (discussion in this forum may not be sufficient).
Some information visualization experts might argue that scatter plots with pips connected by lines do not make sense. I only mention this not to apologize for this missing feature, but because maybe something else makes better sense. What is it that you are trying to plot?

How to adjust x axis of line chart for dynamic values from universe

Dear All,
I am new to SAP Dashboard. I got one requirment that, user will pass single value to universe using prompt in Dashboard. Based on that prompt value / input parameter, universe will deliver data to plot line chart in my canvas. But, on every request i will get different count from universe. Like for request A = 30 records, request B = 56 records, request C = 2 records and so on.
Based on the count, i want to display line chart in my canvas which will auto fit the screen. (Auto adjustment of X axis e.g For A, last record on x axis should be 30, for B = 56 and for C =2). Please let me know, how can i achive this task?.
Note : i know, how to plot simple line chat with fix count.

This is based on the output you get for the selection, get in touch with the functional team and get an idea about maximum no of result set will appear on various selection options. Say example if the functional guy says around 100 then go ahead and map 100 cells for the series.
Then as arijit said you can use the ignore blank cell option to eliminate the blank rows in the selection.
Note: Eliminating blank cells will always work at the end of the rows, not in the middle of the rows.

Date Axis Stacked Area Charts

Hi,
I'm just evaluating the full version of Crystal Reports 2008 having had some frustrations with the design restrictions in the basic version that ships with Visual Studio 2008. Particularly important to me is the design features for charting data. A lot of the charts I need to build have daily data points and the dates for these data points are represented as labels on the X axis. My problem has been that when you try and build a report with several months or more worth of data points the X axis is getting way too crowded even to the extent of being unreadable with overlapping labels. I've noticed in the full version that there is a date axis chart type whereby you can alter the scale of the X axis e.g. to only show a date at a frequency once per month or greater resulting in the X axis being readable. This seems to work great for line charts etc, however one of the charts I need is a stacked area chart and unfortunately I can find no options / chart types that allow me to scale the dates on the X axis. I've seen there is a date axis chart for area charts, but there is no option of having this chart type as stacked. I know you can also skip data labels in X axis group options, but the max I can skip is 2 and so that doesn't really help me either.
Is there any way of achieving a stacked area chart with a scaled date axis in Crystal Reports 2008? If not it seems to me that the lack of this feature is a real omission from the product. Even Excel charts can handle this type of chart and I would imagine Crystal Reports charts should be more advanced in its charting capabilities.
Any help or recommendations would be appreciated.
Kind Regards,
Mark

I have run in to the same problem. I work for a systems integration company and I purchased this software because I have a lot of crystal reports and .NET experience but I have very minimal crystal chart experience. I need to use the charting to display data over time collections. I need to show all data points collected but for some series that I deal with I need to be able to scale the x-axis labels to something that is legible. There is an aftermarket package(CRReports3.5) for $500 more dollars that would enable me to control this but it seems like alot more money for a small piece of functionality that should already be built in. I have Crystal Reports 2008 and am working with visual studio 2008 can someone please tell me is there ANY WAY to achieve this functionality without purchasing additional software? Otherwise this software purchase was worthless for my current project.

How to change the decimal places in the value axis of a chart in WAD?

Hello,
The key figure in my chart has 2 decimal places and I want the value axis to show the same. How to do that?
Thanks in advance, Nathalie

Hi,
change the Format property of the ValueAxis-Line to 0.00
Then the axis displays its values including two digits after the decimal.

Record simple rotate of object on Z axis Options

Hi,
Using CS4. Is it possible to automatically record an object
turning
360 on the Z axis? At the moment, I am turning the object a
couple of
degrees (using 3d Rotation tool), pressing Insert Keyframe,
then
turning the object a little bit more, then Insert Keyframe
again, etc.
But it's just a simple 360 rotation - it must be possible to
do this
automatically?
Thanks.

Well, I'm getting closer but I'm not there yet.
I found out how to use this expression which seems to do what I want but only for a single object sway. If I could randomize this and put it on all of the items it would be pretty close. Here's the expression:
Math.sin(time*2)*1;
This has two problems. First it appears to start swaying at the begining of the comp instead of the comp starting with the object already swaying. I might be wrong on this.
The other problem I already mentioned. I don't know how to randomize this so each additional object has a random sway. I at least found out how to attach the stay to a slider:
Math.sin(time*2)*thisComp.layer("new slider control").effect("SwayAmmount")("Slider");
I am able to set the slider at 1 and then to stop it I set it to 0. I don't think this has a real ease or inertia, but it's ok I guess.
But again, no random options. I've searched high and low to understand the random function. I found: "random()" but I need it to freeze at a random number. I found "seedRandom(x,true)" but all directions I can find for that talk only about possition in the comp. I've given up trying to translate this from position.
Here's the closest I've come, but honestly I'm not even sure that it's a real function...
seedRandom(3,true);
RanNum = random(-2,4)
Math.sin(time*(RanNum))*thisComp.layer("new slider control").effect("SwayAmmount")("Slider");
This again links to the slider. It DOES randomize somewhat and is better than nothing. But surely there is a "correct" way which I am completely overlooking. Using this method all layers sway left to right (fairly similarlily). I would love to have some begin right to left, random...
Any thoughts?
Thanks!

How to display date(instead of number) along y Axis of column chart?

Hi there,
I have a requirement wherein, I have to display date on y Axis and projects along x axis. This is basically a milestone chart. Something like this:
here's my code:
<mx:ArrayCollection id="acProjects">
        <mx:Object projId="A1" projDesc="Execution of Civil Work" plandate="2009-12-23" actualdate="2009-11-25"/>
        <mx:Object projId="A2" projDesc="Installation of Equipment" plandate="2010-02-15" actualdate="2010-03-25"/>
        <mx:Object projId="A3" projDesc="Comissioning of Equipment" plandate="2010-05-30" actualdate="2010-06-15"/>
        <mx:Object projId="A4" projDesc="Handover to regular use" plandate="2010-04-23" actualdate="2009-03-30"/>
    </mx:ArrayCollection>
<mx:ColumnChart id="columnchart1" width="100%" height="100%" color="black" dataProvider="{acProjects}">
            <mx:horizontalAxis>
                <mx:CategoryAxis categoryField="projDesc"/>
            </mx:horizontalAxis>
            <mx:series>
                <mx:ColumnSeries displayName="Planned Date" xField="projDesc" yField="plandate"/>
            </mx:series>
        </mx:ColumnChart>
But with that code i get something like this:
Generally, by default, the Y axis is always numbered. Is there a way where we can change it to display date?
Appreciate your help...
