Changing graph colors

Hello,
I have a bar graph and i want to change the bar color in the graph based on a value or dynamically. Meaning, if i have a variable that has a value "R" then the bar color should be Red. Is this possible in BOXIr2 Deski and if so how do you do it?. Any help is much appreciated
Thanks,

Hello Anand,
I don't think you can (at least I can't in BO6.5, but I don't think there has been much development done on deski since 6.5).
Normally in a table or crosstab you would define an alerter showing rows/columns differently based on the value of a measure.
If you want to achieve that in a graph you need to proceed differently (the alerter is not active when you are working with a graph).
Based on the measure (eg <sales>) you want to check you create a check_variable:
= If <sales> < 10000000 Then "R" Else "G"
Then create 2 new variables:
<sales red>
=<sales> Where (<CheckVariable>="R")
<sales green>
=<sales> Where (<CheckVariable>="G")
Now create a graph and put both new created variable in there. You can now control the color of each variable seperately.
Hope this helps you further.
Cheers,
Harry

Change graph color dynamically in Discoverer

Hi,
Is it possible to change the background color for a graph based on certain condition? If so, how should I do it?
Thanks,

No - you cannot dynamically change the color of a graph or graph element in Discoverer.

How can i change the color of the graph in agreement of the program's condition

Hi,
I am using labview 5.1 in my graduation's project final. (sorry by my english, but i am ina hurry)
How can i change the color of the graph in agreement of the program's condition?
I am developing a VI to control the temperature of termistors,but i have another sensor too.
In a graph i have the situation of the termistors,but i want to change the color of the graph when the sensor is active.
Thanks a lot
Rafael Wajnsztajn - Brasil

To change the color of the line itself, you can use the attribute Plot>>Plot Color.
To change the color of the points, you can use the attribute Cursor>>Cursor Color.
To select the color, you should have a color box constant inside the Numeric>>Additional Numeric Constants palette.
This is all in LV 7.0. I'm not sure how it similar it is in 5.1.
One important thing is to place the attribute node inside a case structure which will execute only when your condition has been filled.
If this didn't help you, I suggest you post the relevant piece of code, or at least an image of it (no BMPs, please).

The problem that I am having is in trying to specify the internal color of the cpu graph for the average cpu activity:
${cpugraph cpu0 40,200 237BEE -l}
I want to keep the boarder of the graph the same darkish grey color as the rest of the widget but I want to change the color of the portion of the graph inside the boarder to a blue color, e.g. the hex color in the code above, or more specifically to match the blue that I am using in my Archey and prompt in urxvt.
I looked up the Conky variable defintions for how to do this and apparently you specifiy gradientcolor1 and gradientcolor2 after the size definition, similar to how I have done it in my conifg (I know that I am only using one color in the above code but it is still not working even when I define two different colors).
Here is a picture of my desktop:
http://ompldr.org/vZzR6dw
As you can see the internal portion of the graph is the same grey color as the majority of the widget. I searched extensively on the forums and Google for a solution but everything that I try doesn't work.
Any suggestions?

I hope this is 'fixed' by Apple in a mail.app update.
Let them know what you want via the feedback channel:
http://www.apple.com/feedback/macosx.html
But Mail has never had a provision for setting the default font, size, or color in its preferences and there is no indication this will ever be changed.

It seems to be the SET_SERIE_COLOR() method added to the FormsGraph revised version, but this latest version is momentarily not available for download.
I think there is an existant open thread on this. Maybe you could find it using the Forum Search box.

Changing graph type, color change

Why when I change the type of graph it changes the colors automatically. I had blue, green, red (in the 3d fills) for a bar graph respectively representing 2009,2010,2011. I am adding this year I wanted to switch to a line graph - why are the colors changing auto to add a yellow and making 2012 red? How can I stop this? I find it quite difficult to change the colors of all the lines/symbols using the 3D fills, actually it doesn't work very well @ all, so I would prefer not to have to do this for 10 graphs per client @ 5 clients. Is there a more efficient way to accomplish this?
Also brings me to my next question. I was attempting to use the copy style, paste style function with the graphs - to ease the pain of all of this. When I do that it only pastes the axis scale (exactly what I don't want copied)! Is there a way to c&p the STYLE...the colors, weight, and data symbols of the lines. Therefore if I must do all the color change manually I would only have to do it once?
Thanks so much.

Here's an example, using a Line Graph.
The first graph uses the full table, which has a column for each year, and extends to 2017, using 'placeholder data.'
For the second, all of the data, and the header labels (year) was deleted from the table.
Not good for presentation (nor was the table with all those empty cells), so columns E (2012) to J were selected and Hidden.
When data became available for 2012 (ie. about 10 or 11 months from now), the hidden columns were Unhidden, the label and data were entered into column E (2012), and columns F - J were again Hidden.
I haven't tried this with bar graphs yet. A closer look at the structure of your data and a screen shot of a sample bar graph would be useful in avoiding a 40 day trek through the wilderness.

Barry

How can I change the color of plot in a waveform chart and graph?

There are 4 plots in a waveform chart, from plot0 to plot3, and I want to chang the color of plots dynamicly up to my needs when the VI is running.
For example, as show in the picture, i want to set the plot0 as RED, and plot1 is BLUE, plot2 is YELLOW, plot3 is GRAY.
If there is only one plot, i can change it's color, however when there are more than one plot, it fail.
How can I do it?
Thanks

Hello MilkyStone,
first you have to set the active plot, then change its color (or other properties). All that is done using property nodes.

Array of clusters and in the cluster is a bar meter, how can I change the color individually?

Array of clusters and in the cluster is a bar meter, how can I change the color of the bar meter individually for each element of the array? I have just figured out that you can't change properties of one element of the array without all elements changing. For the scaling I had to make numeric indicators for each tick of the scale so that each bar meter in the clustered array would have individual scales. I also had to do some math to scale each barmeter to display correct proportions from 0 to 100%. Now I'm stumped on the color of the bar meter. Basically, if the value goes over a setpoint, the bar meter needs to turn red. It has to be in an array to be infinitely scalable.
Thanks
Matt
Solved!
Go to Solution.

You can't do that-
without a little trick.
You could consider laying a custom color box over the bar graph in the cluster you can set the color based on the value of the bar graph or even make a "Pseudo"- bar graph using a series of color boxes stacked to look lie a bar and changing values of the Color boxs from empty to full to red.
Here is an example to demonstrate

CR 9 - Need HELP Setting Line Graph colors in the Chart Expert

Post Author: desselle
CA Forum: Charts and Graphs
Hello,
I created a Crystal Report (CR) based off an existing Trend Analysis report. I have created a VB6 application that calls the .RPT file I created for the report in CR. The VB6 app sets the report recordset via code that corresponds to the .TTX file, and the parameters . The report contains a Line graph that plots five pieces of data. The report & graph work good. The Problem: CR determines the color of each line on the graph. However, I need to set the color for each line to correspond to the colors used on our existing reports. The users are accustom to a certain color representing a certain set of data on the existing reports.   I have tried everything I can think of and from all documentation I can find, and nothing changes the line colors.   I have tried all of the following:
1.) From the Chart Expert, Option tab, I click the Format button next to Color and setup conditional color settings per each piece of data.   However, when I run the report these conditional color settings are not reflected on the CR graph.     I am using formula fields (based off database fields in the recordset) to produce the report. However, I only see the database fields to use in the conditional color formatting screen and not the formula fields.    I thought this would possibly be the cause why the colors wonu2019t change on the CR, but I canu2019t find a way to make the formula fields show up in the list.
2.)Also, I tried right clicking the individual lines of the graph and change the selected item color, but this didnu2019t change the color either. I do this in Design mode and Preview mode and neither one changes the color of the lines on the graph.
3.)I have also looked into the CR object model to see if I can change the line colors of the graph via code and it doesn't look like I am given this flexibility.
Do you know what I am doing wrong here?   I just want to be able to set the color of each line on the CR graph to the color I want instead of using the default colors. Are there some Hot Fixes that I need to apply to my copy of CR?
Thanks

Hello,
I got the problem fixed w/ the line graph not making the data lines the same color on the report as on the frmPlot graph.   Compare the two screen shots below.   The problem was as follows: When I created the graph (in the Chart Expert) the field u201CReadingDateu201D was not one of the Report Fields, and all the other fields were Report Fields (Reading, LowAlarm, UpperAlarm, LowerLimit, & UpperLimit). See the 3rd screen shot below. ReadingDate does show up as a Report Field now but it wasnu2019t at first.   Originally, this field was only available in the Chart Expert as a recordset field. When I changed this field to be a Report Field, the graph then allowed me to change the data series line colors.   This was not obvious at all.   From the beginning when I setup the graph and passed in the recordset from VB it graphed all of the data series fine.   The colors that the Chart Expert chose for each line just didnu2019t match what was on the frmPlot graph.   Anyway, it is working now.     I can at least say I learned (somethingu2019s to-do and somethingu2019s not to-do) a good bit about Crystal Reports in the process.
Thanks

When I changed this field to be a Report Field, the graph then allowed me to change the data series line colors.   This was not obvious at all.   From the beginning when I setup the graph and passed in the recordset from VB it graphed all of the data series fine.   The colors that the Chart Expert chose for each line just didnu2019t match what was on the frmPlot graph.   Anyway, it is working now.     I can at least say I learned (somethingu2019s to-do and somethingu2019s not to-do) a good bit about Crystal Reports in the process.

How to change the color of Data Markers in Bar chart

Hi All,
In OBIEE 11G, I have Bar chart with 4 measures, each measure is set to a color using Style properties of Graph. Now i want to change the color of the Data markers matching to the Bar color. Which means Bar and Data marker value should be set to same color.

Thanks,
GJ
