Bar Chart Formatting

Hello Experts,
I have a requirement like this:
I have to plot a bar chart, where there are two measures against account.
Values are as below
(m1, m2)
(10,10) (7, 12) (12, 10) (11, 4)
act1 act2 act3 act3
so bar for act1 for m1, which equals the target(m2) should be green
bar for act2 for m1 should be very dark green(any color :)) since it is very much above target (m2)
bar for act3 should be red since it is below target
bar for act4 should be very dark red(any color :)) since it is very much below target
any ideas?

Hope this helps

Drill Down Bar Chart Formatting

Hi;
We have a bar chart with conditional formatting on the bars (if % of goal is x, show red, if y show green, etc.) This is built on a hierarchy and has drill down feature from region to stores in the region. When drilling down into the store detail, the formatting on the bars is not carrying through. Any advise???

BAR CHART

Dear Experts,
My exposure to portal is very limited and i dont know much about portal development, so i was hoping if u could give me some direction.
We are in the middle of portal upgrade E6. When we run a query through portal, it now gives us this wonderful tool bar at the top with buttons such as Table, Bar Chart, Pie Chart, Line Chart, 3D Bar Chart, Swap Axes, Info, Exceptions, Conditions etc etc.
By default the result set is dispayed as table. For few reports, when we click on Bar Chart, it works well, it displays the data in the Bar Chart format. The problem is for SOME, it doesnt. It just shows, color codes for each key, but doenst show the chart itself.
For one report it even gave a error message to the effect as "there's too much data to display as chart".
Can someone help me, where should i look at, how can this be fixed ?
Please advise.
Thank you,
TI

How to change the bar chart rendering image format in SSRS

Hello all,
I am working with SQL Server 2008 R2 and I have a SSRS bar chart report, when the report got rendered over online or if the take Export (PDF and PPT), the image is in png format always, which is taking too much of time to execute the report in case of large
data.
Can, It be possible that the rendered image is in jpeg format instead of png.
If Yes, please share the appropriate steps to follow:
Thanks in advance
Pankaj Kumar Yadav-

Hi Pankaj067,
According to your description, you want to change the bar chart rendering image format as JPEG format when previewing the report or exporting to a PDF file .
In Reporting Services, the chart rendering image format is PNG by default. It’s a by-design behavior. And it doesn’t open any API for us to change the image type when exporting a chart to a format. So in your scenario, your requirement can’t be achieved
in Reporting Services currently. I would recommend you submit a feature request to Microsoft at this site:
https://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer. So that we can try to modify and expand the product features based on your needs.
If you have any question, please feel free to ask.
Best regards,

How to format individual series in stacked bar chart

Hi,
Is there any way I can format (sort order, or transperency) of each series individually in a horizontal stacked bar chart?
I am trying to create a gantt chart, where I am using two series
1. Start Date
2. Duration
The function of series one (Start Date) is only to place the start position of the horizontal bar of series 2 (duration) in the year time frame.
After creation of the stacked bar chart, I want to make the reansperency of series 1 (start Date) as 0 so that the duration bar apears floating and gives the feel of Gantt chart.
Thanks

Ecelsius data from QAAWS do not fit right format to project a bar chart.

Hello team,
Need some help in formating Xcelsius data from Qaaws link.
Here is what i have:
I imported data in to Xcelsius using QAAWS link.
What i need to do is to project a bar chart with filters. 'i.e' chart should be projected based on the filter output.
The problem is that when i pick the data through filters it selects just one row.
But i need multiple rows, 'i.e' for every year. (as i'm projecting Yearly data. Vs HeadCount)
Excel file has got 4 columns, Project name, Role Name, Year, Head Count.
Filters are based on project type and Role type.
'i.e' when i select project name and role name using filters : i want the filters to pick the matching data in excel (Headcount) for every year, however it picks for just one single year.
Sample Excel data:
TeamName     RoleName     CalendarYear     HeadCount
engg                ModDel            2007                15
ProjOff             CV                  2007                 22
SCM                 CV                  2008                 42
site                   CV                  2008                 31
ProjOff             HP                   2008                 22
PCM                  MM                  2009                 46
Sore                 ZP                   2009                 22
Engg                 CV                  2010                 19
ProjOff             CV                  2010                 26
Any Ideas to develop this formatting would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

Anil,
Thank you for a quick reply.
After i tried the combo box instead a filter i got multiple rows picked up, but how will it work for more than one combo box.?
I actually need 2 to 3 filters or combo boxes here, which can pick the data from Xcelsisus and output multiple rows on those filtered conditions, (just like filters, matching rows of input but output multiple rows )
'i.e' Combo boxes are displaying output separately ('i.e' both combo boxes are not in sync) unlike filters
Any ideas on this issue, Let me know if i do not make myself clear here.
Appreciate your help.

Ravi

How to change the format of tooltips in bar chart?

Hi experts,
I am using the WAD and using the bar chart
to show the query result.
However, when the mouse hovered on the bar,
a tooptip would appear and show both
charateristics' value and key figures' values(x and y axis).
The requirement is that tooltip should only show the key figures' value and the font should be larger.
Is there anyway to change that tooltip format?

Dear Habeeb,
Thank you so much for your reply.
I read the website you gave.
Does that mean I can add "tooltip_text" to specify
what should be display on the tooltips of charts?
And how can I assign it with only key figure value?
(or you can say, only column value)
I am quite sorry that I am not very familiar with HTML skill.
Could you please kindly explain a little more about this solution?
Again, thank you so much for your help.
Regards,
Wen-Wei

Number format in Power View Bar chart

I have created some power view reports in SharePoint 2013. The bar charts always display the number in Thousands and I am not able to change this behavior. For example, 2000 is shown as 2k in the chart which the client does not like. They want to see the
whole value. How to achieve this?

Hi Nklbala,
I have tried to test the issue in my test environment which is SharePoint 2013 and can reproduce the issue.
Based on my test, the Axis show the data in 5000 rather than 5K when decreasing font size. While the data label still displays 5K. The behavior is by design. Please refer to the screenshot below:

Format SVG bar chart labels

I am currently using APEX 2.2.1.
Here is the SQL for my SVG vertical bar chart.
select * from(select null link, hourstart label,(select count(*)
FROM toctasks.toc_tasker
where (tas_create_dt between
to_date(:P17_STARTDATE||' 06:00','DD-MON-RR HH24:MI')
and
to_date(:P17_ENDDATE||' 05:59','DD-MON-RR HH24:MI'))
and
(trim(substr(to_char(tas_create_dt,'DD-MON-RR HH24:MI'),10,6)) >= hourstart
and trim(substr(to_char(tas_create_dt,'DD-MON-RR HH24:MI'),10,6)) <= hourend )
and instr(:P17_INCLUDE_LOGONLY,tas_status) > 0) value from testtocday
order by hrseq)
The X axis labels are the hours of the day (hourstart), starting at 0600 and ending at 0500.
I would like to do any one of the following:
1. Bold and red the hour label when it is equal to 0600, 1400 and 2200.
2. Change the color of the bar when the hour label is equal to 0600, 1400 and 2200.
3. put some sort of vertical marker in the chart when the hour label is equal to 1400 and 2200.
Any of this possible?
Thanks,
Bob

Formatting the legend of a stacked bar chart

Hi,
Is it possible to change/edit the legend part of a stacked bar chart right now I am getting the legend as"
[Color Code1]                   Sum of [TableName].Column Name1
[Color Code2]                   Sum of [Table Name].Column Name2
[Color Code3]                   Sum of [Table Name].Column Name3
etc...
and I would like this to be displayed as
[Color Code1]                   Column Name1
[Color Code2]                   Column Name2
[Color Code3]                   Column Name3
Thanks,

Edited by: ii.xii on Jan 9, 2012 4:47 PM

Well, the only way to edit that is to select the Legend entry (In Preview Mode Only) > Right-click > Edit Axis Label.
You would need to do this for every Legend entry.

How to make the labels vertical in a horizonal bar chart?

Hi,
I am using CF 9. I have a horizontal bar chart. How can I make the labels on the Y-Axis display horizontally. Right now they are vertical and sort of sideways.
Below is a snipept from my <cfchart>. Everything is working, I just want the labels to display horizontally. How can I do this?
<cfchart
 format="png"
 chartheight="310" chartwidth="530" foregroundcolor="##000000"
 show3d="false"
 scalefrom="0" scaleto="14"
 showlegend="no"
 showxgridlines="yes"
 showygridlines="no"
 showborder="no"
 style="#elementStyle#" >
 <cfchartseries type="horizontalbar" paintstyle="shade"">
 </cfchartseries>
</cfchart>
Thanks...

When you open the default New Tab page - about:newtab - which has the Tiles and a Search Bar, the "focus" is in the Search Bar. You could change a hidden setting to have a blank page when you open a new tab if that's what you want - that will have the "focus" in the Location Bar . URL Bar.
Type '''about:config''' in the URL bar and hit Enter.
''Accept the warning''
Search field at the top to filter with this - '''browser.newtab.url'''
Right-click the preference that appears below, and select '''Modify'''.
Insert '''about:blank''' for the new string value.

SSRS Bar Chart grouping date series into Months, setting scaler start and end ranges

I've been trying to solve this issue for a few days now without writing a sql script to create a "blank" for all of missing data points so that I get a bar for each month. I have date series (by day) data points grouped by two items
that creates a set of bar charts. EG: one chart per product in the tablix detail grouped to site level.
My issue is I would like the start and end of the charts to be the same for all charts and the only way I get it to work is with a chart that continues to show each date on the chart.
EG:
I have the graph start and end points set and scaling by month as I would like but each bar is a day instead of aggregating to a month level. My issue I hope to find a workaround for is if I go to Category Groups and define the grouping
to group with a year and month function the series is no longer treated as date data and I cannot control scaling. It works fine if all months have activity, but I can't figure out how to always have all charts start at "May 2012" in this example.
The only start and end point that I've been able to get to work once doing this are integer based, eg normal start would be 1 for each graph, but 1 doesn't equate to the same month from chart to chart.
I hope SSRS can provide the solution. I do know I can write a query that creates a ZERO value for each month/product/site but I don't want to leave the client with a query like that to support.
-cybertosis

Hi cybertosis,
If I understand correctly, you want to display all month category label in the X-Axis. You have configure the Scalar Axis, however, it cannot display the requirement format.
In your case, if we want the specific data format, we can configure Number property to set the corresponding Category data format. Please refer to the following steps:
Right click the X-Axis, select Horizontal Axis Properties.
Click Number in the left pane. Click Date option in the Category dialog box.
Then, select Jan 2000 option.
Please refer to the following screenshot below:
If there are any misunderstanding, please feel free to let me know.

Bar Chart: Bar Z-Index

I am trying to create a vertical bar chart. However, I have run into a small snag.
My chart:
- The X-axis has the next 12 months.
- Y-axis has calculated values.
I have multiple calculated values(bars) for each month(Column). Because of this I need to overlap the bars and show them in order of tallest down-to the shortest.
The problem:
When I overlap the bars it doesn't show all of the bars. The graph draws the bars in order of the timeline. The bar that is earliest in the timeline gets drawn first. Because of this, the shorter bars at the beginning of the timeline get hidden by the taller bars near the end of the timeline.
Is there a way I can sort these bars to show smallest - largest per month in their correct series color?
More Info:
A bar represents a project that can span multiple months.
Dataset:
Project Name, Month, hours
Proj1, Jan, 5
Proj1, Feb, 6
Proj1, Mar, 6 <-- will be hidden by Proj2, Mar, 7
Proj1, Apr, 5 <-- will be hidden by Proj2, Apr, 8
Proj2, Mar, 7
Proj2, Apr, 8
Proj2, May, 7
I hope this edit makes it a bit more clear.
Thanks for the assistance!

Hello -
I use Custom XML to accomplish this. You want to define the format of the <label_settings> tag. Below is sample code fron one of my bar charts. I've separated the <format> tag so you can see it easily. Notice the numDecimals:2 that is what defines how many decimals to show.
 <data_plot_settings enable_3d_mode="false" >
 <bar_series style="Default">
 <tooltip_settings enabled="true">
 <format><![CDATA[{%Name}{enabled:False} - {%Value}{numDecimals:2,decimalSeparator:.,thousandsSeparator:\,}]]></format>
 
 <position anchor="Float" valign="Top" padding="10" />
 </tooltip_settings>
 <label_settings enabled="true" mode="Outside" multi_line_align="Center">
 <format><![CDATA[{%Value}{numDecimals:2,decimalSeparator:.,thousandsSeparator:\,}]]></format>
 <background enabled="false"/>
 
 </label_settings>
 <bar_style>
 </bar_style>
 <marker_settings enabled="True" >
 <marker type="None" />
 </marker_settings>
 </bar_series>
 </data_plot_settings>
...You may be able to do this without Custom XML. There is a decimal places field in the Axis Settings section of the chart attributes, but i'm pretty sure that only affects the axis display settings.

Horizontal Bar Chart and Overlaying Line Chart

I am using SSRS 2008 and developing my reports in BIDS.
I have a report with two data points. I want to chart the first as a bar (horizontal) chart and then the second as an overlaying line chart.
I created both data series, originally, as a bar chart. I have clicked on the second series in the "Drop Data Fields Here" area and changed the chart to a line chart. When I do that, it changes both series to a line chart.
However, if I use the column (vertical) chart for the first series, it will let me make the second one a line chart.
Is this a limitation of SSRS 2008? Can I not have one data point be the horizontal bar chart and the second one a line chart?
If so, are there any suggestions how to get around this?
Thanks.

Both charts for SSRS 2005/2008 are very limited when it comes to horizontal charts and are infact supporting only left-to-right bar charts, with no ability to combine them with other charting types (lines, areas, points etc.). For a SSRS charting solution that supports all types of charting type combinations in left-to-right and right-to-left horizontal fashion you can use Nevron Chart for SSRS - www.nevron.com. Besides a huge number of charting types and subtypes (most of which are not available in the MS Chart for SSRS 2008) it also provides better image quality in 2D and 3D modes, more settings, has support for rich text formatting in texts, has image filters, ability to customize via C# code and implements many more large and small charting related details.
Best regards,

How to change the color of bar in bar chart

Hi I'm
using Crystal Reports 2005 with Visual Studio 2005. How do i change the color of the bar in a bar chart, i don't see any options, someone telling in the forum that i can simply right click on the bar and choose color, but i don't get that option. all i can select is the entire chart object.
any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks
yesvee

You have to make sure that you select the correct part of the bar.
For Example: When you click on the outside of the chart, the entire chart will be selected. Clicking somewhere inside the chart will also highlight the entire chart, but to highlight a specific bar or line you have to click until only that part is highlighted.
Once you have the bar or series highlighted, right-click on the highlighted section and then select Chart Options, or "Format Series Riser" and you should be able to change the colour of the bar/line.
