Chart Legend, Text Change (Batch)

Hi,
I have about 40 reports all with the same charts, and the legend label uses the field labels so they look like "count of open accounts to date." While I can change the text names when I select the legend text in the Preview pane, it is only a band-aid fix because I don't want to have to manually change this text for all 40 of my reports. It'll add up to over 200 manual text edits!!
Please tell me there is a better way!!
I have CRXI
Thank You,
Frank

Hi Frank

Pie Chart -- legend texts are cut (with "...")

Hello Experts,
when I*m using pie charts with displaying the legend, longer texts are cut (e.g.: "220/35V 60W yellow...")
What can I do to show the complete text?
Thanx a lot
KR,
Raimund

Good Day Nics,
the cuts are due to the size of the pie chart. you can resize your pie chart for the legends to show properly.
Kindly tell me if im missing something.

Flex 4 FTE Charts Legend text is missing/sporadic

I have enabled "Use Flash Text Engine in MX components" for my flex project.
The reason I want to do this is two fold:
1) I don't want to have to embed a font twice to just set embedAsCFF seperately for each.
2) The other reason is that FTE seems to handle unicode characters and I want to support that possibility even if my embedded font doesn't support it
The problem I am running into however is that the textual portion of charts and labels seem to sporadically show there values. For example when the page loads I may see 2 out of 3 legends textual values. The crazy part is that the legend values will just plain disappear/reappear sporadically while I am on the page. There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason on what ones will show up because I can load the application multiple times and different labels will show and others won't.
If I disable "Use Flash Text Engine in MX components" on my project then these labels show up fine but I loose the FTE needs stated above.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Well I am starting to believe that this is an actual bug now. I took Adobe's pie chart example from here and all I did was create a new project with it and enabled "Use Flash Text Engine in MX Components" in my compiler settings. I didn't even bother with adding an embedded font since the issue seems to occur without it in this simple example.
The first image shows how the legend is missing labels after loading the application. The second image is what happened after I moved my mouse over the larger portion of the pie chart, notice that some legend values disappeared. Also every time I load the application there will be different labels shown/missing so it appears to be completely random.
I made a simple fxg example of this but doesn't appear i can attach it to this post unfortunately.

Pie chart legend summary bug, weird text being printed

Hi guys, I created a simple report with a Pie Chart on VS2008 and on my computer the chart legend displays all items perfectly but when I deploy it on our web server the legend summary, which is always 100% doesn't say "Total" anymore but a weird text, have you seen this before? Here's a sample.
On my machine the chart legend is the following:
ITEM1                                35.0%    63
ITEM2                                38.3%    69
ITEM3                                26.7%    48
Total                                  100.0% 180
On the server:
ITEM1                                35.0%    63
ITEM2                                38.3%    69
ITEM3                                26.7%    48
eTotal:1_n_pseudoloc_   100.0% 180

Have not seen this before, but do apply SP1 on your dev computer:
https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100009351512008E/crbasic2008sp1.exe
Recompile.
And use SP1 runtime:
https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100010010692008E/crredist2005_sp1_x86.zip
See if that helps.

Text in flash chart legend

Hi- We are on APEX v3.1.2.00.02
A flash chart has been created and works well, but here is my issue:
In the Chart Series query, we have a select (here's a small piece) select total_rfc "Total R.F.C"
When the chart is generated, the legend box appears as Total R.F.C (as seen in the above line).
I really want it to say Total RFC (no periods). If I change the SQL query to "Total RFC", it appears as Total Rfc (2nd & 3rd letters are lower case).
Anyone know how to fix this? I'm fairly new to APEX and I can't quite determine if this is a SQL or Flash issue.

Hi "msnewman",
The behaviour you are seeing is expected in APEX 3.1.2, and is due to the use of the Initcap function in the underlying logic, which is resulting in Legend values appearing with the initial letter in uppercase and the rest of the work in lowercase letters. When you remove the full stops from between R F and C, then the three letters are being picked up as one word, RFC, which will end up like Rfc after being updated by the Initcap function.
In APEX 4.0, however, this is no longer an issue. With Flash 5 charts it is possible to display the value all in uppercase, as you can see in the Bar Chart example here: http://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=36648:5. So if you are contemplating upgrading to APEX 4.0.2, our latest release, you would be able to take advantage of this change to the behaviour of the chart legend, as well as much nicer looking Flash charts.

Hilary

How to programatically (dynamically) change the chart legend ?

How do I add new labels/symbols to the chart legend dynamically ?
I'm creating a scatter graph using the query
select A,B,C from tableX group by A
B is the y-axis, C is the x-axis. Points plotted for each grouping of A will be a different color. I know I can change the color of the point to be plotted thru the format trigger. The format trigger will change the color of the plotted points when there is a change in the grouping of A. My problem is how can I add a new label/color to the legend for each grouping of A as it is plotted ? The number of groupings of A is variable depending on what's in tableX. I need to programatically create the legend (each grouping of A will have it's own label/color) thru the format trigger as I won't know before hand how many groupings of A there will be.

Try with Presentation variables.

How do I change legends in line charts when you change line type

I have created a line chart with two lines. I only have a black and white printer. If I change the two lines to black, the legends change to match. To distinquish the two lines I change the line type making one dots and the other dashes. The lines change but the lengends don't. This makes the graph useless.
Any suggestions on how to get the lines in the legends to change to match the lines in the graph?
Thanks for any help.
Paul

I could not get the line legends to differ either. You can add a marker to only 1 of the plots though:

Field description in chart legend instead of technical name (BW query)?

I am building a report from a BW query. The report has a grouping field and a bar chart in the group footer. When I execute the report the legend shows the technical name of the key figures even though I checked the "Show description" field in the "options".
I can change the labels in "preview" mode (provided I can guess the real names), but just like in the field explorer I would prefer to always have the text instead of the nonsense technical name.
Is this possible?

hello all,
you can use a 2 chart workaround for this.
1) the first chart is the Group chart you already have...just disable the legend
2) now create an Advanced chart using the description field as the On Change Of
3) set the Order of chart to correspond with the technical field that the group is based on
4) preview the chart and right click on the x axis area and format the axis so nothing is showing
5) do the same for the y axis
6) keep right clicking on all of the chart objects and changing them to transparent
sounds annoying, is annoying, but it works.
cheers,
jamie

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

Chart legend fails to print correctly

When I print the front panel of my vi, the text in the chart legend is not visible on the printed document. I have tried changing the font and style of the text in the legend, but that usually causes the program to crash. I am using Labview 8.5.1 and Windows XP. Is there a way to get the entire front panel to print correctly?

Yes, it would be very helpful if you could upload a simple VI that one can use to reproduce the issue.
