Chart options in BI

Dear all,
We have data in the report which runs monthwise for a year. Our requirement is if i have values for the months e.g APR,MAY,JUN etc., then I should get a chart as bar chart for APR,MAY and run chart for JUN - i.e., always the current month or the last month for which data is available should be in the run chart format and the previous months should be in the Bar format.
This should be displayed as default.
Your experts suggestion will be of much value.
Regards,
M.M

If your requirement is to show different chart types (Bar and Run) in the same graph, Then I am affraid but it would not be possible as a standard. You have to code in the template in WAD to suffice this requirement. Or else you have to 2 charts and 2 queries.
Still wait for expert to answer.
Regards
Pankaj

Modify chart options at run time?

Post Author: davestewart
CA Forum: .NET
I am trying to create a bar chart that shows a custom grid line, or a reference line across the chart. I can set this manually in chart options using the 'Draw custom line at:' setting in the grids tab of the data axis in chart options. There must be a way to set this programatically at run time as this value will change based on the dataset passed to teh report each time. How could I accomplish this report?
If there is some other way to show a horizontal reference line on my bar chart, and have it match up with the scaling, that would be fine too. Any method of getting this on there would be great.
Thanks for any help you may be able to lend!

Hi ,
this will work..ut after you enter the p1 , you atleast have to hit enter key to get the value automatically in p2.
this is because you have to have atleast one screen refresh.
handle the eventy at selection screen output....
this is called just before the screen is dispalyed.
may be something like this.
p_matnr material
p_maktx description of material
But the value will not appear as soon as you enter the p1 , you have to..
1)enter p1
2)press enter
3)now p2 will appear automatically since at selection screen output would have processed in between.
AT SELECTION-SCREEN OUTPUT.
IF NOT p_matnr IS INITIAL.
SELECT SINGLE
maktx FROM makt INTO p_maktx WHERE matnr = p_matnr AND spras = 'EN'.
ENDIF.
please reward if useful.

Chart options: Y axis scale

Hi,
I created a bar chart for a report that simly displays the count for each distinct value of a field. I would want the Y scale (which displays the count) to only present integer values (its a count, so it's obvious there can't be any non-integer values). Currently it's set to auto select the range and the number of divisions, for which the range it's ok but the divisions don't always come out as all integers. From what I can see, the only way to do this would be to set the min to 0, max to the max count on the report (which is normaly what the auto range does), and the number of divisions as the max count minus one. I don't really see any other way. Apparently there's no way to do this dynamically (like in a formula), and I don't think I can use static range values. Is there any way to do this? I just want to confirm what I know and see if there is any other way to do it.
Also, this is probably not the forum to post this, but just in case, is there any way to do this programatically in code without needing extra libraries or extra tools?
Thanks,
Diego

First of all, by static and dynamic data, do you mean the options for the chart?
Also, I don't want to display the max count on the chart. I would just like to use it on the options for the chart's Y axis as the max value, although I don't think I need to, since the auto scale already does that. I think the only thing I should need is set the number of divisions to display on the Y axis. For example, if the chart has two bars, one for lets say color red, and one for color yellow, and lets say on the data there were 4 red and 6 yellow. So the chart will have two vertical bars, one for red going from 0 up to 4, and one for yellow, going from 0 up to 6. The chart will automatically make the range on the Y scale go from 0 up to 6, but it might make the divisions at say 1.5, 3, and 4.5. But I would like it to not use decimal values for those divisions, instead only divide the axis on integer values, like on 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. To do that, from the options the chart gives me, I can do it by setting a specific number of divisions on the axis (in this case it would be 5 divisions). I just want to know if there is any way I can set that in a formula or something, of if it just has to be the same value for every report (without having to change it directly on the Crystal Reports editor, because the reports get generated automatically with different sets of data).
Thanks,
Diego

Can you change chart options at runtime?

Howdy All:
I'm trying to display charts in English and Japanese. The lables on the charts (i.e., X-Axis, Y-Axis, Legend, etc.) are set in the properties window inside Visual Studio. I would like to change these to Japanese at runtime if a user requests a Japanese version of the report instead of an English version of the report. However, I have been unable to find a way to access the properties for the chart programatically. Is this even possible and how? If not, are there any suggestions on how I can accomplish this task in a different way? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Hello,
a possible workaround is to use a report library (report in english, report in japanese, different charts etc ) where you just download the needed report at runtime.
Please also see the .NET chart class for useful properties :

Do you need another charting option?

We have a customer inquiring about using ProEssentials v5 with Lookout. Since Lookout can't deal with ActiveX property arrays, we would need to add a new feature to allow Lookout to pass property array type data through a different method Lookout could handle. Is there any interest for a 3rd party engineering based charting tool for Lookout?
Please email me at [email protected] to discuss potential charting with Lookout. We need to know if there's any interest before we write a couple thousand lines of interface code.

There is a interest for a 3rd party engineering based charting tool fopr look out as it would allow the user to interact with lookout much ore prodominatly and would give more features

Dual Y axis tab on the Chart Options dialog box

Post Author: training2go
CA Forum: Charts and Graphs
Hello,
I see this tab (on the version of Crystal in Visual Studio 2005), but I can't access it, so I'm wondering what type of chart it applies to. I've created each type of chart that's available, but this tab is always grayed out, so I'm guessing that I'm missing something. Any advise would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

You're right, it has been that way for a long time. I've never bothered reporting it as a bug since it's simple enough to deal with, but reporting it would be a reasonable thing to do.

Chart Expert option not working in CR 2011

Hello,
The Marker Shape option on the options tab on the Chart Expert, does not save the option that you select. For example, if you select the diamond option from the drop-down list, diamond do not appear on the report. This didn't work in CRXI or CR2008 either. Is this on a list of things to fix? There is an option for this on the Chart Options dialog box that works, but it isn't as convenient because I often forget that the dialog box exists.
Thank you
Tracy
Q7

Hi Tracy,
Looking through Adapt I see this has been tracked multiple times and for multiple types of Charts, sometimes they are fixed, sometimes they are Postponed and some times they are simply marked as will not be fixed.... meaning we don't have control over the bug.
The problem is the Charting Function is a third party dll and they can't fix the issue, so we can't either obviously. There are also two parts to the Charting function, Some part, the general Option is something we can get to but the extended features is something we can't get to through our SDK's.
There have actually begin dropping the Third party dll and we've begun creating our our Java Charting resource. I don't know if there are any plans to port it over to CR 2011 for Windows, it is for the new CR for Enterprise Java Designer.
So unfortunately your only option is to find the work around you did use and make a note somewhere what you did last time....
Thanks again
Don

Xcelsius 2008 Enterprise Chart Visualization Options - Sparkline Anyone?

While Crystal Xcelsius certain has an awesomeness factor, there seems to be a limitation when it comes to the variety of data visualization charting options available to use. If this product is supposed to be the "de-facto" dashboarding tool offered by BusinessObjects post the SAP acquisition, one would think they would make an effort to enhance the product to include the same level of dashboarding options as were previously available through older products recently phased out. For example, the variety of chart types to use is quite limited in Xcelsius 2008, whereas, Dashboard Manager, previously offered as part of the Business Objects Enterprise solution stack (XI R2 & R3), was much richer in terms of available charting types offered when constructing a dashboard, covering a host of business relevant subject and measurement areas within the concept of a catalogue of related objects. Crystal Xcelsius 2008 is the replacement offering, and holds its own for other reasons, like the interactive visualization of data, which no one can compete with in this space. However, with its limited charting options, it seems from reading the dev library and BOB-board that SAP/BusinessObjects is advising folks to create their own add-ons, i.e. their own charts which can be deployed and used as templates, thus, solving the problem. For those of us who are non-germane code writers in their day to day work, this option is not viable as it requires a modicum of software development practice to write Xcelsius add-on packages, much like the experience of using QWAAS which is comparable to ASP.NET coding vs. making the data connectivity to the dashboards from data feed types like a Universe or a relational database.
Having vetted my frustration, here is my ask...I would like to create a sparkline chart in Xcelsius -- I have a copy if you want to see what I am trying to describe, the image, just an example which I found on the web. The presentation of this chart type has a very "Xcesius-y" look and Feel to me so I thought I would ask the group a) interest in a topic thread on this forum related to sharing Xcesius add-on or related Source code files in an effort to maintain a sense of helpful product exploitation ala the Apple Apps open source platform concept. I need help with the Sparkline sooner rather than later so any help is greatly appreciated.

Chart label options

Hello, has anyone experienced an issue where the data labeling on the charts always defaults to "side of frame". Even if you go into the chart options and change it to say, "edge of frame", after hitting "OK", it just goes back to side of frame. Any idea why? Thanks in advance.

I faced the same problem.
The following helped:
right click in graph -> select 'chart expert' -> goto tab 'options'
-> deselect check box 'Auto-arrange' in layout -> try it again . . .
Hope this helps in your case, too.

Can not edit data labels in old graph chart objects using Word 2010

In Word 2010, Insert object "Microsoft Graph Chart", go to Chart Options and check an item in Data labels, such as "Series Name", "Category Name" or "Value". Click OK, then double-click on a data label to edit its
settings, or right-click on a data label and select "Format Data Labels..."
This makes Word to crash. The only way I can get out of it is by using the Task Manager to kill Word.
This happens in Windows 7 and Windows 8. This does NOT not happen in Word 2007 nor Word 2013, so it seems specific to Word 2010. All our clients have the same problem, this does not seem related to a specific workstation configuration.
The Microsoft Graph Chart are the old charts used within .doc files. I have an application still generating those types of files and need to edit data label settings manually before processing the files with my application.
Also note that anytime you edit a .doc file in Word 2010 and you see "Compatibility Mode" in the title bar, the Insert / Chart option from the ribbon inserts an old type chart (same as if you use Insert / Object / Microsoft Graph Chart), not the
new Word 2010 charts. You then have the same problem editing the data labels.
The underlying Activex seems to be the Chart.Exe file, the one I have installed is 14.0.7012.1000. You can see the version by double-clicking the chart and then look in the Help / About menu.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

As this is a configuration issue and not a programming issue I' moving your question to a more appropriate forum where you're more likely to find assistance.

Adding new data to update multiple series in charts - in one action

I would like to know how to update a data series range in a chart all at once as can be achieved with Excel by
manually entering row numbers to expand the data series range or
by dragging a reference frame in a table to include additional data in the range.
At present, the only way that I have discovered I can update a series is to manually change the cell reference detail for each series individually. This is achieved by selecting a single line and clicking several times on the Data reference cell in the Inspector Chart option by highlighting the cell reference details and then manually changing the cell reference for each series separately. This is tedious, time consuming and more than a little clumsy! What used to take me a few minutes to update my charts in Excel is taking me tens of minutes in Numbers.

Unless I'm misreading this, similar techniques work in Numbers.
The original table contained only the sequential labels in column A and the data shown on the upper chart.
I made two changes, similar to those in your list (but in the opposite order, hence the reversal in my numbering):
2. Added data to cells B11:B15 (labeled J-N). (The data added is a copy of the first five data from the original series.) Selected the chart, then expanded the data series by dragging the control (small circle) down to include these cell (plus B16) in the charted range. The chart updated to include this data.
1. Selected B11:B15, then went Table > Add Rows Below (keyboard shortcut: option-down arrow). Numbers added five rows to the table, and updated the chart to include those rows, as shown in the lower version of the chart. Paste the data into these new rows to add it to the chart.
Although I had selected rows inside the charted range when adding new rows (to keep that "O" label on the x axis and show the 'space' before it), the five rows could as easily have been added to the end of the chart. Select B12:B16, press option-down arrow.

Ability to display multiple texts within graphic planning board Gantt chart

6       AFVG    Order operation                       USR08    User field for date
I have found that the 2nd text field (USR08) must be added as the last step (#6). When I had it as #1, the planning board did not display the USR08 value.
Now both are displayed in the Gantt chart graphic. However, it is difficult to see this long string of data as the bars in the Gantt chart may not be long enough to display the data.
Therefore we would like to use the "hover over" text which is displayed in the status line at the bottom of the screen. We have tried using both the Info Text and the Quick Info options within the Bar Chart: Options Profile (OPG0). Only the first text (the material descirption) is dislayed within either the Quick Info or the Info Text.
Is it possible to have multiple object values appear in Quick Info or Info Text? Or is it possible to control which text is displayed in the Quick Info or Info Text?
Any help in this area would be greatly appreciated, as this is a make-or-break issue for the business to use the planning board. Thank you!

I'm also looking for a standard customizing alternative to do the same thing.
Still, if you're interested, I've already done it successfully with user exit PLAT0001.
Hope this helps.
Best regards.
