Bar charts- can bar start at a point greater than zero?

I would like to create a bar chart where data for each category covers a range. Is there a way in Numbers to start a bar chart at a value greater than zero and extend for a defined amount? For example, start the bar at 70 and stop at 200?
I can do this in Excel, but haven't found a way to do it in Numbers yet. Any ideas?

Yes. Select the chart by clicking anywhere on it. Then click on the Inspector icon in the Tool Bar. In the Inspector pane which opens, click on the Chart symbol in the row of icons across the top of the pane; the Inspector pane changes to show Chart properties. Look down the pane until you see Value Axis Format which shows 3 white boxes. In the first box, type the value you want your chart Value axis (the chart vertical axis) to start at. In the second box, type the value you want for its upper limit, and in the third box, type the number of steps you want displayed on your axis. E.g. Minimum = 200, Maximum = 800, Steps = 3 will give a chart axis which starts at 200 (a supressed zero), ends at 800, and shows 3 values (400, 600 & 800) in addition to the base value of 200.
Hope this helps,

Bar chart query - bar subdivisions.

Hi,
I have created a bar chart that is subdivided into two colour reb and blue representing the values yes and no. a count of these yes and no's are performed and displayed on the bar in their appropriate positions.
I am wondering how i could subdivide the bar once more by not only having a red and blue subdivision to represent yes and no, but have the red subdivision divided into 2 colours where one division represents 'big' and the other division represents 'small'.
the bar chart i chose to create initially is a stacked bar chart. (im assuming this is the correct one to continue using for this)
if i go to chart expert->data-> in the 'on change of' section , i have a formula which represent values on the x-axis and i have the field from the database which contains the values 'yes' and 'no'.
in the 'show values' section, I have the field from the database which contains a formula for the count of the 'yes's and 'no's.
the formula i ysed for this is:
if ({MyDB.yes/nofield} = 'YES') Then
1 else 0
can anyone help me with this problem (as i am in dire straits with this one)
thanks.

Hi James
If the group is on a database field, then you won't be able to manipulate the legend howver if it is a formula field then you can put the values that you want to see in the legend.
Or you can create a mock legend with text boxes and the desired values.
Hope this helps!!

How can a function returning character length greater than 4000 be selected in SQL

Hi,
I want to know if there is a way to write a select query on a function call which returns a varchar of more than 4000 characters.
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION FUNC1
RETURN VARCHAR2
IS
str VARCHAR2(32767);
BEGIN
str := <some string greater than 4000 char>;
RETURN str;
END;
SELECT FUNC1 from dual; ---- This gives an PL/SQL numeric or value error. Character string buffer too small.
Is there any way to resolve this?
Thanks

32767 is not default. The default is still 4000 for VARCHAR2. You need to set the initialization parameter MAX_STRING_SIZE= EXTENDED for 32767.
Text from Oracle documentation
Extended Data Types
Beginning with Oracle Database 12c, you can specify a maximum size of 32767 bytes for the VARCHAR2, NVARCHAR2, and RAW data types. You can control whether your database supports this new maximum size by setting the initialization parameter MAX_STRING_SIZE as follows:
If MAX_STRING_SIZE = STANDARD, then the size limits for releases prior to Oracle Database 12c apply: 4000 bytes for the VARCHAR2 and NVARCHAR2 data types, and 2000 bytes for the RAW data type. This is the default.
If MAX_STRING_SIZE = EXTENDED, then the size limit is 32767 bytes for the VARCHAR2, NVARCHAR2, and RAW data types.

How can I type the symbol for greater than or equal to

I wish to type the symbol for greater than or equal to in an equation but my keyboard does not have such a symbol

Mathematical Operators - 2200-22FF
:≥     &#x2265; 8805 GREATER-THAN OR EQUAL TO
:http://www.sql-und-xml.de/unicode-database/mathematical-operators.html
If this is for HTML use &ge; to create ≥
you can bring up CharMap (charmap.exe)
go down 11 windows (of 10 rows each) and it is on bottom row
You should be able to type as Alt+8805 on the Numeric keypad (not number row)
or on laptop with NumLock off as Fn+Alt+8805
but that is not working for me and I verified that hex(x2265) and decimal (8805)
values are equivalent.

I found the fix for this:

open a new server view and add a server.
This will start a wizard that eventually ask for a weblogic domain, when i added the domain the server started

Discoverer Bar Chart Data Points

Hi everyone,
I am creating a Bar Chart in Discoverer with the data points to be displayed at the top. Does anyone know how to make the datapoints not display decimal places. I've tried to change the number format in the table and through administrator as well. The table does not display decimal places but the Bar Chart Data Points continue to do so. Any suggestions or thoughts to try would be welcomed. Thanks!

If you edit the chart and choose X-Axis Scale I believe you can set the number of decimal place there. Should be able to set it to 0.

Anychart bar charts generated for each row of a report

I am looking for ideas on, or existing examples of how the above requirement could be implemented in Apex 3.2.1.
My initial thoughts are to:
- use a pipeline table function as the report region source
- generate the JavaScript for creating bar charts with one series of 48 points, as a column returned by the table function.
The source data will be unlikely to be more than 15-20 records pulled from a well indexed underlying record set of several million records.
My worry is that this may not be a particularly responsive solution and I would like to know if anyone can validate or improve on my approach?
Cheers

You would need to define a separate column to hold the required output for each possible parameter value in the first column.
Each column would need to be conditional, where the condition is based upon the value in the first column, which you can reference using #column_name# syntax.
Try that...

Sprucing up 3-D bar charts

If you use bar charts very often, you've probably noticed that the appearance of bar charts can be enhanced by selecting a 3-D look (and maybe even better with the inclusion of a shadow). Another option is to include bar's value as a label on the individual bars themselves, instead of just relying on the vertical scale at the left of the chart. You can enhance the look of those labels as well, by giving each label it's own shadow.
Make sure the "Legend" is displayed on the chart, and "Label Data" is active in the various "Chart Options" dialog. Close the dialog and click on one series in the chart's legend (a small white circle appears in the middle). At this point you can change the color of that bar, the color of it's edges, and the color of the bar's label "text" -- all independent selections. If you now command-click on the series marker in the legend, a text shadow is toggled for the label on that series bar. If you option+command-click on it, you get not only a drop shadow, but a highlight, as well.
The pie chart labels behave in a similar fashion.

If you can create a view, that would be very helpful, by making the view, you are pushing some of the work to the
server, so... "Hopefully" the report will be quicker. I don't think making six seperate charts would be all that much load on the
server, or cr. If you do that, would you stack the charts? and just make the top stacks with Transparent backgrounds?
Rather than add a view on the server u2013 there's talk that the next version of the gradebook program will completely refactor the database u2013 I did a SQL Command (I can't remember where I read about that tip over the last couple of feverish days, but my hat's off and I owe someone a frosty adult beverage!) that created a simplified table. I then used that to create a Cross-Tab (my original report approximated one using a whole bunch of Running Totals).
I then tried to make the chart, and got completely frustrated u2013 again u2013 until I accidentally created a chart from the Cross-Tab (right-click on the Cross-Tab and choose Insert Chart ). I had no idea you could do that, and it ended up being exactly what I wanted.
I have CRXI, if you go to the Sample reports, you will see one called Chart.rpt, this has multiple examples of some of the
charts you can create. Perhaps a 3D riser chart would meet your requirements. HTH If not, can you provide some different samples?
I would have never thought to look for the samples. Thank you! Now that I've got my immediate problem solved it's time to look at the samples and see what possibilities exist for future reports.

Display Value for a Horizantal Bar Chart

My Horizontal Bar Chart is not displaying values that are less than 6 figures since most of the column values are greater than 7 figures. it won;t show even when I hover over the column bar.. Any idea on how to display them.

Sam,
I have not come across such scenario...anyways..let me give it a thought and will let you know if i find some solution..:)
Undoubtedly i still say it as a powerful tool when compared to any other dashboard development tool. Most importantly, anyone can develop a dashboard and show their analysis in visualization in minutes... that is the beauty of Xcelsius
I understand some important features are still missing and i am sure product development team will work towards it. No tool is perfect.. It is only people like you and me who will be able to make it better by suggesting different ways to improve

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.

Stacked 100% bar chart - Problem with datatips for zero value data points

I have a stacked 100% bar chart that shows datatips in Flex 4.   However, I don't want it to show datatips for
data points with zero values.   Flex 4 shows the datatip for a zero value data point on the left side of a bar if the data point is not the first in the series.
Here's the code that illustrates this problem.    Of particular concern is the July bar.    Because of the zero value data point problem, it's not possible to see the datatip for "aaa".
Any ideas on how we can hide/remove the datatips for zero value data points ?        Thanks.

How can I disable an add on of a second status bar or browsing bar at bottom of screen above the Start button? It pops up showing every site I visit.

There is status/info/browsing line of information showing every single site I use and changes with every site I visit. It isn't in a box, but it shows basically all my browsing. It is like the address bar, but it is at the bottom of the screen and the information shows right above the 'start' button. If you try to click on it, it moves to the right side and you can't right click on it to see if you can close it. It may be an add on, but I don't know how to get rid of it. It is like I have two status bars but this one isn't in a box, it just shows in a line at the bottom of the screen. It shows all browsing information, and it is very distracting when I'm using my computer.

You appear to be describing the status messages. The easiest way to hide them is to use the Status-4-Evar add-on. With it you can choose to not display any of the status messages, or display them in the add-ons bar or location bar instead.

How can I show a 0% range in the data value label on a bar chart thanks?

How can I show a 0% range in the data value label on a bar chart thanks?

I'm not sure what the question is.
I know that if you have a bar chart and one of the categories (X-axis) has bar (Y value) equal to 0%, no bar is plotted for that category. Even the addition of a stroke (line) around the bars doesn't make one appear for 0%. The only automatic way I know of to make it look like there is data in that category is to add the value labels to the bars. Inspector/Chart/Series, select one of the bars on the chart, click on "value labels". Another method that is a workaround is to fudge the number a little in your table so that instead of 0% it is a very small %. This will get you a thin line on the chart.
But if your question is about the value labels (the numbers that display on or in the bars) and you are not getting one for a bar that is supposed to be 0%, it probably means your table doesn't actually have a 0% in the corresponding cell. A blank cell in the table will not get a value label.

I purchased the newest software update for my ipod touch 1st generation and it is saying it is it will now begin download but the status bar doesn't even appear? How can I start the download?

I purchased the newest software update for my ipod touch 1st generation and it is saying it is it will now begin download but the status bar doesn't even appear? How can I start the download?

Well first off you shouldn't have had to pay for a download (just an assumption from the word "purchased".
If you are trying to install iOS 5 on your iPod touch, it won't work they arent compatible. I suggest checking what version of software you are trying to install and posting it in this forum so people can have a better understanding.

Can you put line break in text in the data box when creating a chart.
i.e. if you have a bar chart with text underneath each bar, can you break it when you’re entering it instead of manually afterwards
