Chart legend is incorrect if table is excluded in analysis

Working on OBIEE 11.1.1.5 with Essbase source.
If I include the table in the analysis, the legend of my chart looks correct (5 items).
https://picasaweb.google.com/jennifer.corpus/OBIEEQuestion?authkey=Gv1sRgCMThg5CZss_9Qg&feat=directlink#5617779985543105954
However, if I remove the table, it multiplies and shows 17 legend items. All I am doing is closing the table because I don't want it to show on my dashboard.
Any ideas why?

Error in chart legend totals when there is a negative number involved

Post Author: dawnyanne
CA Forum: Charts and Graphs
Hi
if anyone can help me I would be extremely grateful!
I have a pie chart with a legend. There are just two values that are showing but one of the values is a negative value and the total of the legend is adding up incorrectly. Here is how it is showing at the moment
Cash                 -0.71
Uk Equities     100.71
Total              101.42
here is how it should be
Cash               -0.71
UK Equities   100.71
Total             100.00
I can set the chart amounts to be percentage - but then it comes out as only one decimal place and I need two.
Any help would be very much appreciated!
kind regards
Dawnyanne

Arranging Chart Legend Items

Is there a way to change the sort or arrangement of items in a chart legend? I am doing a simple stacked bar chart with 2 measures - % Pass and % Fail (for a school system), but it always shows % Fail as the first item in the legend. I would like to show % Pass first...is there any way?
Thanks

hi,
We can do using combine with similar request
Col A Col B '%Pass' 1--Req 1
Col A Col B '%Fail' 2 --Req 2
Asc order on numbers(1,2) .So that the legends will come %pass and %fail try it in pivot table
I didn't tried this but i hope it ll work...All the best
thanks,

Pie chart legend options

I have a spreadsheet with "expense categories" in one column and "dollar figures" in the second column.
When I highlight the columns and create a chart I DON'T want to have to use "show legend" (with the color circles at the bottom) as it repeats my expense categories and just takes up space.
What I want is what shows up with I click on the pie chart. When I do that, it changes my spreadsheet and shows the corresponding colors to the left of the categories.
Is there a way to have my spreadsheet legends show up like in the picture below to the left? It goes away the minute I click off the pie chart or try to print.
Thanks in advance.

See if this gets you started
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/54961502/For%20Apple%20Forums/Legend%20in%20Table.number s
I put the legend in a separate table that consists of a single column. The column contains formulas that refer to the data table (Table 1). The formulas are not affected by sorting the data table, you can sort it all you want and the legend will be correct. I filled each cell with color and used conditional formatting to make it white text on a white background if there is no header text for that row. I also made the borders white so they would blend into the page. Add text in one of the empty rows of the data table and you'll see how it acts.
Notice that a pie chart has only six different colors, then the colors repeat. You can modify that but you'll also have to modify what I did by changing the legend cells to the the new colors. I changed the colors by turning on the legend, using the magnifying glass in the Color window to get the color, then drag/dropping the color on the cell. I do not know how many different colors you can use.
I recommend locking the legend table so it cannot be modified by the user.
I recommend turning Wrap off in the data table. If text wraps it makes the row taller which will cause the legend and the table to become misaligned. Changing the font, changing rows sizes manually, or moving the table will do that too.
I recommend locking the chart so it cannot be modified by the user.

Pie Chart legend label icon

Hi, is it possible to change the label icons of a Pie Chart legend? I have a pie chart with genre distribution % and would like to set the male and female genre icons instead of the color.
Thank you

Hello Pedro,
in general you can' t change the label icons in SSRS - I assume you mean with "label icons" the small colored rectangles indicating each of the sections in a pie chart. But I have a workaround for you: Simply not to use the build-in labeling mechanism
of the chart, but to create an individual textbox with the needed symbols for your purposes. In that textbox you have to set an expression for showing the needed male or female symbols as Unicode-chars. There's a text function for that, I mean something like
"=ChrW(&XXX)" is the appropriate expression. XXX has to be the character string of the Unicode-chartset, if you want e.g. the male symbol as an icon. Unfortunately, I can't post links, but it's quite easy to find via Bing or Google the needed
chars or signs in the Unicode-Table (use e.g. "Unicode table" as search string and you find a great site for retrievaling chars and symbols in the Unicode-Table).
Generally spoken, I wouldn't use pie charts at all, normally bar charts are the better choice in visualizing data - with bar charts it's easier to recognize skales than in a pie chart and you can often label bars in a direct way, so you don't need an extra
legend.
I hope I could help you, but feel free to ask me, if yo have further questions

Bubble chart legend problem

Hello.
I have problem with bubble chart the problem is that in chart legend appear the same number of object what bubble in chart e.g. if chart have 5 bubble then legend also have 5 object.
What do I want to obtain is that in chart appear bubble which have different color (color depends on condition) and legend relate only colors. For example if chart have 4 bubble 3 - red and 1 - green then in legend appear only two position which relate green and red color (now appear 4 object three about red and one green).
Can any one tell me how to resolve this problem?

I already did this I added three condition (three colors red, green and yellow) in field "Value of" I choosed "is equal to" unfortunately it didn't help.
Maybe I joust try to describe what I want to show in this chart.
Suppose I have table with four columns u201Cdateu201D, u201Camount (number type)u201D, u201Csize (number type)u201D, u201Crisku201D (text type) now where this value appear on chart:
- date is x axis
- amount is y axis
- size is a bubble size
- risk will be bubble color
Now I have 3 kind of risk u201CLowu201D (green color), u201CMediumu201D (yellow color) and u201CHighu201D (red color).
Now in my data base I have table with record:
- u201C11-11-2009u201D, u201C1u201D, u201C2u201D, u201CMediumu201D
- u201C12-11-2009u201D, u201C2u201D, u201C1u201D, u201CMediumu201D
- u201C13-11-2009u201D, u201C1u201D, u201C1u201D, u201CHighu201D
- u201C14-11-2009u201D, u201C3u201D, u201C3u201D, u201CLowu201D
- u201C15-11-2009u201D, u201C1u201D, u201C1u201D, u201CLowu201D
Ok so now In My chart I should have 5 bubble and in legend three value (green, red, yellow) but in this case I always have five (the same number what record in table).
Sorry if this example is not clear.

IWork Numbers chart legend does not appear

Anyone have any idea what I'm doing wrong? I've made a chart from a table that has headers, checked the boxes to show the title and the legend and the chart title appears but the legend is not there. It doesn't matter if I resize the table, switch between normal and print views, check and uncheck legend, make sure all text is black, ...
I don't know why it doesn't appear or is invisible.
I'd appreciate any help you can give.
Thanks!
Jill

Jerry, I hadn't moved the chart. I've recreated one and the legend just never shows up. I've tried resizing the charts, moving the charts apart and away from the tables with data, resizing the chart area, selecting all text and making the color black, reducing the page size to 50% to see if the legends were lurking somewhere unexpected, and I can't find the legends or make them visible.
Correct that: I just went back to the spreadsheet after reducing it to 50% and started editing a table and the legend for one chart (not connected to the table) appeared. It's still missing for another chart created from the same data set and two other charts on the same page.
I just tried creating a new chart in a new page and there's no legend. The default is set up not to have a legend but when I click "Show legend", it doesn't appear. I'm flummoxed.

Custom Formatting Of Chart Legends

I've been playing with Flex Charting, and I have lots of nice
looking graphs that I've created from database feeds. However, what
I really want to know how to do is format the chart legend better.
For example I have a pie chart that has about 50 different data
items/series and the legend is huge in either horizontal or
vertical mode it prints all the way down the page. How can I make
it two, three or more columns?

Hi Justin,
I think, there is no way to do such a customization with the standard Javadoc (i.e. powered by the Standard Doclet).
After all, the job of the standard Javadoc is doing standard (general) things and I just cannot imagine any general rule (setting or option) that would embrace all kinds of possible customizations about displaying of annotations.
So, the only way in your situation would be to modify the doclet itself. You can try tweaking the standard doclet: overload some its classes or change sources (according to the license they provide). However, I just can say, that way proved to have lots of limitations.
Fortunately, I could suggest you a different rote that would allow you solving your problem in a few minutes. We have a product called "DocFlex/Javadoc":
http://www.filigris.com/products/docflex_javadoc/
This is a highly customizable Javadoc doclet. More exactly, this is a system for rapid development of professional quality doclets (with the support of both framed/single-file HTML and RTF output).
With that tool, the generation of every sort of Javadoc output is programmed in special templates (using graphic Template Designer). The product is provided with the "standard template set" that generates the HTML Java API documentation very similar to the standard Javadoc.
In fact, to solve you task, you will need to modify a subtemplate called "annotations.tpl". See on this page: http://www.filigris.com/products/docflex_javadoc/templates.php
If you are interested about all this, we could help you to modify the necessary template absolutely free. Then, you will need only to buy a full product license to have everything work without limitations and that will be all!
So, if you are interested, please let us know by sending a e-mail to the address found on this page:

Chart Legend: Worked in Beta, No longer working in Prod

Hi everybody,
The legend attached to the LineChart is no longer displaying the proper color. That is, the line, in the linechart is red (as requested) but the "legend" is black. It is supposed to be a red square and the word "Jobs" but I get a black square (as it is not picking the fact that it should be red).
<s:SolidColorStroke id="s3" color="red" />
<mx:Legend dataProvider="{myChart}" />
<mx:LineChart id="myChart"
x="10" y="40" width="600" height="400"
dataProvider="{platformsData}"
showDataTips="true" >
<mx:series>
<mx:LineSeries yField="id" displayName="Jobs" lineStroke="{s3}"/>
</mx:series>
</mx:LineChart>
This worked in Beta but no longer works in Production. Is this a bug or I need to make coding changes to accommodate to new Production ways of dealing with this?
Regards,
egm

Seems like a bug to me. If you remove lineStroke="{s3}", the chart legend loads fine.
Might have something to do with fill color perhaps?
In any case, the fills documentation says:
"If you specify the fills property and you want to have a Legend control, you must manually create a Legend control and add LegendItems to it."
Perhaps the entry for lineStroke should say the same.
In the mean time you could use the defaults, or a custom Legend, like this (place into an AIR 2 project if you try running it):

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.

Vamsee

SSRS Hide one data value label in chart legend

Is it possible to hide one value in the legend? I've got a stacked bar chart, but there's one value that I don't want to display in the Legend. Is it possible to hide this particular color and label in the legend?
Thanks,
Chris

Hi Chris,
Yes. In Reporting Services 2005, you could add a filter to hide one value label in the chart legend. This can be done with the following instructions:
In Report Designer, open the chart properties dialog box and go to Data tab.
Double click the item in the Series groups to open the Grouping and Sorting Properties dialog box.
Switch to the Filter tab. Add a filter using the following setting:
Expression: =Fields!<FieldName>.value
Operaiton: !=
Value: =”value”
If you have any further questions, please let me know.
Thanks.

Reporting Services Chart Legend Label

I am creating a chart from analysis services cube data
data is like this
District            Year          Value
A                    2001          10
B                    2002          29
(null)              2003           19
The charts are creating fine but the legends are not showing fine. In series group i have also tried to use an expression to fix the null label.
For null value the label is created as "Series 1". I don't want this to happen. for null value i want my chart legend to show as "State"
Any help will be appriciated
Regards

Hi,
You can use expression to achieve that. In series group, set the group on expression to be:
=iif(Fields!<District>.Value is nothing, “State”, Fields!<District>.Value)
Also, set the label expression to be:
=iif(Fields!<District>.Value is nothing, “State”, Fields!<District>.Value)
Hope this helps.
