Chart Scale Options

Hi,
I 'm having tough time trying to figure out scaling options for my column chart.
I have data in series. The chart does not start from Zero value. It starts from min value to max value. It is confusing sometimes.
Also, the chart bars vary in size as if there ia huge differnce when the difference is very slight.
Enabling the auto-scale options did'nt do any wonders. I also tried setting manual scale to get the chart display from Zero - Max
value and the chart compressed in size and no bars were visible.
Is there a fix /workaround for this ?
I want the chart to display from Zero and should have the ability to auto-scale.
Thanks,
Sam

Sam,
Yes, there is a workaround for this...

Oracle bi publisher PDF output changes chart scale

I have created report which has charts - bar charts
I able to run report in various formats including interactive, html, excel, powerpoint, pdf etc.
Now the chart scale on all other format reports showing perfect e.g. 3.0 height on y axis. So its basically adjusting as the max height (value) for y axis. But for PDF output no matter weather it has less than 3.0 for all values in that page, but it shows height 4.0 (instead of 3.0 max as other output formats are showing). So its not adjusting dynamically as other output formats.
How can I get PDF document display same as other output formats? Because if all values less than 0.5 height, still PDF output showing height as 4.0 , so graph is not visible or almost touching to the ground with straight line.
Please help and appreciate your help.
Thanks

Has there been any update on this? I am running into the same problem, only it is only affecting one of my charts. The maximum keeps on dynamically setting to 4.0, though I have also seen it set its maximum to 5 and minimum to -5 given certain parameters.
I have three other charts on the same report: one with a dynamic maximum that sets correctly, and two that have a static maximum. The problem is only when I view it as a PDF.

When printing in Adobe, missing the Custom Scale option.

Adobe Version 11.0.2
Windows 7 64 bit.
Doesn't matter what type of network printer I select. When selecing to print a document, under Page Sizing & Handling, there is no "Custom Scale" option. There is on other workstations.
Thank you.

Very strange. The only thing I can suggest is to update to 11.0.5.

Why no SCALE option for lightbox images?

Need SCALE options for lightbox images!
Must have SCALE DOWN option.
Images must scale down to display correctly on a smaller screen.
Currently Muse Lightbox FAILS on smaller browser screens.
Adobe please include this feature ASAP!

Thanks for the reply
The problem with the Fullscreen Lightbox is that the images scale up and pixelate on a larger browser viewport.
(To avoid this requires a very large image that makes loading slow)
So for Fullscreen Lightbox I would like a SCALE DOWN ONLY option (requested previously). Then the images would not scale up above 100% and would float centred on larger browser viewports (FIT PROPORTIONALLY option used).
And for the standard lightbox a scale option, as requested above, would mean the image doesn't overflow on a smaller browser viewport.
The reason for asking for scale options is to keep images looking their best at 100%, and downscaling for smaller browser ports.

Why don't I see the "custom scale" option when I print?

When printing PDF files using Adobe Reader 10.1.6 I do not have the custom scale option. Is this not available in this version?

Update it from iTunes on a computer as described at the bottom of this article; devices running an iOS version prior to 5.0 can't be updated straight from the device. Unless limited by the device's hardware, it will be updated to iOS 6.1.3.

Time-Scale option and bookmark setting possible on Creative ZEN Vision

Does the ZEN Vision: M 60GB has a time scale option and is it possible to set bookmarks?on songs in this player like in the old CREATIVE Nomad Jukebox 3. As a musician I like this options for exercising and rehearsals.

Theres a bookmark feature, but it needs improvment. Theres is no Time-Scaling, a feature I miss from the Zen Xtra.

Printing to postscript using the scale option in UNIX

I can print to postscript without any problems but would like to scale the page down so I can fit 4 per printed page; is ths possible with the -scale option or any other option. I know this can be done within a windows environment but can this be done in UNIX at the command line.

The problem is a few
blocks we havent really seen yet. All these numerics and stuff outside
the while loop, what are they exactly, or are they just a different way
of viewing them? The stuff with the digital at INI phase, The block
in the lower right corner of the INI phase.
The digital block in the
dispatcher phase we didn't really understand.
I am not sure what you mean here can you circle it and send me a picture so that I can explain.

ACE default handling of the TCP Window Scale option

Can someone tell me a reasonable explanation why the default action of the ACE is to clear the window-scale option in SYN-segments? We were long baffled why some customers (specifically the ones with larger latencies) were suffering from poor TCP transfer speeds and resets. Packet captures confirmed the fact that the ACE was clearing window-scale options, causing the advertised receive windows to be remarkably small as the scaling factors were removed.
Isn't intermediate tampering with the window-scale option a widely known source for TCP performance problems? Window scaling is after all a widely used TCP extension. That's why I'm curious to know why such default behaviour from the ACE.
Our problem was of course finally resolved by explicitly allowing the window-scale option using a parameter map.

HI Timo,
As you know if you allows the ACE to use a window scale factor that essentially increases the size of the TCP send and receive buffers. The sender specifies a window scale factor in a SYN segment that determines the send and receive window size for the duration of the connection.
You have defined tcp-options scale allow in the parameter map but have not specified to which scale factor this should scale to.
The TCP window scaling feature adds support for the Window Scaling option in RFC 1323. It is recommend that increasing the window size to improve TCP performance in network paths with large bandwidth, long-delay characteristics. This type of network is called a long fat network (LFN).
But you have not configure a TCP window-scale factor which is essential for network paths with high-bandwidth, long-delay characteristics, using the "set tcp window-scale " command.
The window scaling extension expands the definition of the TCP window to 32 bits and then uses a scale factor to carry this 32-bit value in the 16-bit window field of the TCP header.
You can increase the window size to a maximum scale factor of 14.
Typical applications use a scale factor of 3 when deployed in LFNs but in you case if this is a LFN you are using default which is 0.
So here in your case you can select how much scale factor is needed to be defined from the range 0-14 , otherwise even if you have defined in the tcp-options windlow-scale allow, but as you have not define to what factor it should scale to , so it will always use the default scale factor which is 0, means no scaling at all.
To set the TCP window-scale factor to 3, add the second command as well in your parameter map:
host1/Admin(config-parammap-conn)# tcp-options window-scale allow ---> Defined already
host1/Admin(config-parammap-conn)# set tcp window-scale 3 ----> Needed to be added else "default scale factor 0" will be taken
You can check in the following URL at cisco docs wiki for how ACE handles Connection at Layer 4 (L4) and Layer 7 (L7):
http://docwiki.cisco.com/wiki/Cisco_Application_Control_Engine_(ACE)_Module_Troubleshooting_Guide,_Release_A2(x)_--_Troubleshooting_Connectivity
Here are the details of how a tcp-options scale windows works:
The window scale extension expands the definition of the TCP
window to 32 bits and then uses a scale factor to carry this 32- bit
value in the 16-bit Window field of the TCP header (SEG.WND in RFC-793).
The scale factor is carried in a new TCP option, Window Scale.
This option is sent only in a SYN segment (a segment with the SYN bit on),
hence the window scale is fixed in each direction when a connection is opened.
(Another design choice would be to specify the window scale in every TCP segment.
It would be incorrect to send a window scale option only when the scale factor changed,
since a TCP option in an acknowledgement segment will not be delivered reliably
(unless the ACK happens to be piggy-backed on data in the other direction).
Fixing the scale when the connection is opened has the advantage of lower
overhead but the disadvantage that the scale factor cannot be changed
during the connection.) The maximum receive window, and therefore the
scale factor, is determined by the maximum receive buffer space.
In a typical modern implementation, this maximum buffer space is set
by default but can be overridden by a user program before a
TCP connection is opened. This determines the scale factor,
and therefore no new user interface is needed for window scaling.
Window Scale Option The three-byte Window Scale option
may be sent in a SYN segment by a TCP.
It has two purposes:
(1) indicate that the TCP is prepared to do both send and receive window scaling, and
(2) communicate a scale factor to be applied to its receive window.
Thus, a TCP that is prepared to scale windows should send the option,
even if its own scale factor is 1. The scale factor is limited to
a power of two and encoded logarithmically,
so it may be implemented by binary shift operations.
TCP Window Scale Option (WSopt):
Kind: 3 Length: 3 bytes
+---------+---------+---------+
| Kind=3 |Length=3 |shift.cnt|
+---------+---------+---------+
This option is an offer, not a promise; both sides must send
Window Scale options in their SYN segments to enable window
scaling in either direction. If window scaling is enabled,
then the TCP that sent this option will right-shift its true
receive-window values by 'shift.cnt' bits for transmission in
SEG.WND. The value 'shift.cnt' may be zero (offering to scale,
while applying a scale factor of 1 to the receive window).
This option may be sent in an initial segment (i.e., a
segment with the SYN bit on and the ACK bit off).
It may also be sent in a segment, but only if a Window
Scale op- tion was received in the initial segment.
A Window Scale option in a segment without a SYN bit should be ignored.
The Window field in a SYN (i.e., a or ) segment itself is never scaled.
Using the Window Scale Option
A model implementation of window scaling is as follows
All windows are treated as 32-bit quantities for storage in
the connection control block and for local calculations.
This includes the send-window (SND.WND) and the receive- window
(RCV.WND) values, as well as the congestion window.
* The connection state is augmented by two window shift counts,
Snd.Wind.Scale and Rcv.Wind.Scale, to be applied to the
incoming and outgoing window fields, respectively.
* If a TCP receives a segment containing a Window Scale
option, it sends its own Window Scale option in the segment.
* The Window Scale option is sent with shift.cnt = R, where R
is the value that the TCP would like to use for its receive window.
* Upon receiving a SYN segment with a Window Scale option containing
shift.cnt = S, a TCP sets Snd.Wind.Scale to S and sets Rcv.Wind.Scale
to R; otherwise, it sets both Snd.Wind.Scale and Rcv.Wind.Scale to zero.
* The window field (SEG.WND) in the header of every incoming segment,
with the exception of SYN segments, is left-shifted by Snd.Wind.Scale
bits before updating SND.WND: SND.WND = SEG.WND << Snd.Wind.Scale
(assuming the other conditions of RFC793 are met,
and using the "C" notation "<<" for left-shift).
* The window field (SEG.WND) of every outgoing segment, with the
exception of SYN segments, is right-shifted by
Rcv.Wind.Scale bits: SEG.WND = RCV.WND >> Rcv.Wind.Scale.
TCP determines if a data segment is "old" or "new" by testing
whether its sequence number is within 2**31 bytes of the left
edge of the window, and if it is not, discarding the data as "old".
To insure that new data is never mistakenly considered old and vice- versa,
the left edge of the sender's window has to be at most 2**31 away
from the right edge of the receiver's window. Similarly with the
sender's right edge and receiver's left edge. Since the right and
left edges of either the sender's or receiver's window differ by
the window size, and since the sender and receiver windows can be
out of phase by at most the window size, the above constraints imply
that
2 * the max window size must be less than 2**31,
or max window < 2**30 Since the max window is 2**S
(where S is the scaling shift count) times at most 2**16 - 1
(the maximum unscaled window),
the maximum window is guaranteed to be < 2*30 if S <= 14.
Thus, the shift count must be limited to 14 (which allows windows of 2**30 = 1 Gbyte).
If a Window Scale option is received with a shift.cnt value exceeding 14,
the TCP should log the error but use 14 instead of the specified value.
The scale factor applies only to the Window field as transmitted
in the TCP header; each TCP using extended windows will maintain
the window values locally as 32-bit numbers. For example,
the "congestion window" computed by Slow Start and Congestion Avoidance
is not affected by the scale factor, so window scaling will not introduce
quantization into the congestion window.
Hope it will resolve your issue, else get back to us for further discussion.
Best regards,
Sachin Garg

Pattern brush scale option

Arlee Art,
You may start on the following general list of things you may try when the issue is not in a specific file (you may have tried/done some of them already); 1) and 2) are the easy ones for temporary strangenesses, and 3) and 4) are specifically aimed at possibly corrupt preferences):
1) Close down Illy and open again;
2) Restart the computer (you may do that up to 3 times);
3) Close down Illy and press Ctrl+Alt+Shift/Cmd+Option+Shift during startup (easy but irreversible);
4) Move the folder (follow the link with that name) with Illy closed (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible);
5) Look through and try out the relevant among the Other options (follow the link with that name, Item 7) is a list of usual suspects among other applications that may disturb and confuse Illy, Item 15) applies to CC, CS6, and maybe CS5);
Even more seriously, you may:
6) Uninstall, run the Cleaner Tool (if you have CS3/CS4/CS5/CS6/CC), and reinstall.

Invert Chart Scale without set Flipped or Properties Window

There are a way to Invert Scale on Chart Plot without set the property Flipped programmatically or set the option inverted on properties window?
I was created a executable program in labview and in any part of code exists a property Flipped and the properties window are not acessible. But one program user
make the graph sliding from the right to the left, fliped.
The are any combination of actions with mouse and keyboard to make the scale inverted? There are any combination of property values to do this?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I know how to invert the scale but I do not want to invert the scale.
Nowhere in my code I am inverting the scale. Neither the properties window is accessible to the user so that he can do.
But some user of my program could inadvertently inverting the scale and I can not understand how he did it.

Corrupt Chart Scale

G'Day Everyone,
Occasionally, when I run an application with a few charts on the front panel, the X scales become corrupt. I write values to the charts, and some of them remain at their set scales (Xmin and Xmax don't change), but others change considerably. I remember something about this being a bug a few(?) LabVIEW versions ago - has this one crept back into 7?
cheers,
Chris

Hi Chris,
I am not familiar with the bug in previous versions of LabVIEW, but I do know that there is a new option on charts and graphs in LabVIEW 7.0. Under the "Advanced" right-click menu is a new option called "Reset Scale Layout"...I imagine this might be helpful if you need to set everything "back to normal" on a graph that has messed up scales.

Chart scale

Post Author: nick_m
CA Forum: Charts and Graphs
I don't see this is an option anywhere but I thought I would ask anyway. Is it possible to adjust the chart to only show whole numbers as the minimum scale increment? For example I'm displaying data that will only be in whole numbers but the scale lists 1.5, 2.5, 3.5 etc. I still want it to automatically display the scale and range for me, but only want whole numbers as the minimum increment.

I have CR XI
you may need to create a formula to "Roundup" your numbers, then chart off the formula.
RoundUp(4.1,0) will Return 5.

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

Chart scale error

I am coding a logging system in labview 7.1
On the front panel I have several charts. If I try to change the x-scale by typing new end of scale value while running - labview crashes (LV7.1 has encountered an error, please tell Microsoft...)
If I change the x-scale when the program is not running - labview sometimes crashes.
The graphs are indicators OWGraph, Wave Height, Temperatures, Flow and in the lower loop, pressure difference.
The data comes from on demand aquiring from a pci6120 card which runs in one loop - the displaying is handled in another loop (on top in posted code image) except from one chart which needs quicker updates.

I found the sinner, it cant handle the offset. I use an offset of the number of seconds since 1904... to display the current time on the x-axis. If I plot two or more plots in the chart and use property node-> x-axis.offset it crashes every time I try to manually change the x-axis. I used most of the day figuring this out and the rest of the day to find a workaround. Since I dont use the date - I ended up calculating the smallest number of seconds to put into offset so that the time got right. Because if you wire a constant (any size) into the property node it is no problem - if you wire a time stamp converted to double - it crashes. When I use a probe on the value, it displays it in scientific mode (3,2 e+9) I wouldnt think this is any different than a constant written 3200000000 - but it is the only explanation I have right now - and I am not using one more second to find out - cause my workaround works...
In the code attached - the timestamp is input to a chart with a single plot, that however causes no problems...

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.
