Chart Value Labels

On a chart, I only want to have every other or every third value label to be printed instead of all of them.
When all of them are printed, the numbers overlap with the next value. (The digits are 6 figures long.)
Thanks
Ray

I assume you mean the abcissa (or x value)?
So right now you get something like:
and you want the x-axis values to be readable.
the answer depends on the type of graph (which you did not provide).
select the graph them "Charts Inspector" (shown here for a bar chart):
use the "Label every" field at the bottom to adjust how often there's a label.
for an x-y- scatter chart you can adjust hown many major grid lines there in in the X axis so the abcissa values for OR select the x-value text and rotate to it will fit using the inspector:

  • How can I show a 0% range in the data value label on a bar chart thanks?

    How can I show a 0% range in the data value label on a bar chart thanks?

    I'm not sure what the question is. 
    I know that if you have a bar chart and one of the categories (X-axis) has bar (Y value) equal to 0%, no bar is plotted for that category. Even the addition of a stroke (line) around the bars doesn't make one appear for 0%.  The only automatic way I know of to make it look like there is data in that category is to add the value labels to the bars. Inspector/Chart/Series, select one of the bars on the chart, click on "value labels". Another method that is a workaround is to fudge the number a little in your table so that instead of 0% it is a very small %.  This will get you a thin line on the chart.
    But if your question is about the value labels (the numbers that display on or in the bars) and you are not getting one for a bar that is supposed to be 0%, it probably means your table doesn't actually have a 0% in the corresponding cell. A blank cell in the table will not get a value label.

  • 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.

  • How to show data value labels in the charts without moving my mouse on the data point?

    Sometimes I need to show a chart with data value labels which is not necessary to move my mouse on the data points. However, it seems Xcelsius does not support this simple feature. Any alternative ways?
    Many thanks!

    Currently, Xcelsius does not support display of labels at data points. It would be difficult to move and update labels on a chart with dynamically updated data. However, a work around for a static chart would be to add a Label component in the desired location. This can be done for multiple static charts by using dynamic visibility.

  • Problems with Value Labels in Stacked Bar Chart

    Post Author: RGR
    CA Forum: Charts and Graphs
    When choosing a stacked bar chart to display the contribution of 2 values to the overall total, the graph plots correctly, but the value labels are incorrect.  Instead of labeling the values for A & B, the graph is appropriately labeled for A ,but the label for B is the total for A+B.  It should be just "B".
    Has anyone else experienced this problem or has a solution.  I am using CR 2008

    I have this issue a lot with CR XI.  As I have never used CR 2008, I am not sure of the commands.  But in CR XI, right click on the graph and select Chart Options.  On the Data Labels tab, at the bottom there are two options: Cumulative and Absolute.  It defaults to Cumulative, so change to Absolute.  That always works for me.

  • CL_GUI_CHART_ENGINE value labels

    Hello Experts,
    I have StackedColumn Chart with several Categories and Series. I am using SAP ChartDesigner for my chart properties. Nearly everything is ok, but I dont know how to set value labels for each Serie in Category. Result should look like this:
    Thank you for any help/guide.
    Jakub

    My problem was solved by Łukasz Pęgiel, author of www.ababblog.com.
    Here is the link for the page where we discussed the problem.Look at attachment(bottom of the page) for example.
    In a nutshell, problem is that SAP converts texts inputed into SO10 for whatever reason and when you use READ_TEXT FM then you receive converted text, not the original one.
    Have a nice day,

  • Chart/Columns labels

    I am building a Column chart I'm not sure what its called but its where you add different series together to make a column chart (this option is second from the top and on the left side in the charts selector). I would call it a additive column chart. What I want to do is add a label to the chart. However, I don't want the labels of the individual series but the sum of the series. I would like this number to appear at the top of the Chart Column.
    So for example if my data for a particular column says:
    Canada 10
    US 5
    Other 3
    I want the number 18 to be displayed in the chart. It is an additive column of course so why can't I show the total?
    I just want to show the total somehow as a number on the chart.
    Thank you.

    That chart is called a stacked bar chart. I don't know how to do what you want automatically but I'll try a few things out and report back (unless someone else answers before I figure it out). You always have the option of putting text boxes on the chart with the numbers you want.
    EDIT: Here's an idea that works but it kind of a pain. The advantage it has over individual text boxes is that it recalculates the sums and puts them in the correct place automatically.
    1. Create another column of data in your table that is the sum you want.
    2. Plot a bar chart of that column. Ensure the min and max on the Y axis are the same as your first chart. It would be best to set these in each chart so you can ensure they will never be different.
    3. Show value labels. This should show your sums.
    4. Hide all the other elements of this chart. No axis, no gridlines, no Y axis values, no X axis categories, etc.
    5. Set the fill color of the chart and the bars to none (in the Graphic Inspector)
    6. Slide it overtop of your first chart.
    7. Reposition/resize the chart until everything lines up and looks good.
    For many operations, such as adding another row of data or changing values in your table, this should work out fine with no further adjustments required. For adding new rows of data to the chart, you will have to do it for both charts instead of just one.

    Can you please tell me how I can get the pixel width of the labels that gets updated when user changes the screen resolution.
    Please let me know ASAP.

    See this example and the related thread:

    Basically, you need to customize the chart XML. That is quite easy to do.

  • Please suggest how can we place chart series label evenly in Pie Chart of SSRS 2008

    Could you please suggest how can we place chart series label value evenly so that it doesnot overlap with each other and user can view the data properly.
    Please find  the attached  screenshot for the same.

    Hi SubhadipRoy,
    As Satish posted, the solution can achieve your goal. In addition, you can right click the Chart Series Labels and Series Label Properties, and then select Number in the left pane, finally select Scientific below the Category option. The data label may not
    overlay. Or you can enlarge the chart.

  • Issue with chart values!

    Hi to all,
    I hope if any one can help me out with this issue related to pie chart value information. To start I need to let you know what I have in my report so you will have a clear idea on what I'm trying to view in my report.
    I'm running:
    Opportunity-Product History report
    Fields:
    Business Area (4 different Business Areas (example: east, west north, south))
    Revenue
    The issue I’m having related to the revenue values of each Business Areas.
    For example I can see the 4 different Business Areas on my pie chart, but the value (revenue) of all Opportunities for a specific Business Area “east” not equal to the total Revenue for “east” in my table below. It will show only the value $ for one of the opportunity in this Business Area “east”. But if I drill into Business Area “east” it will show me all the opportunities with all right values $$
    My quest is how can I show the total amount of revenue in my chart with out drilling into each Business Area
    Thanks,

    Hi bvuHH,
    According to your description, you checked "Show Data Labels" to show labels in the chart, if the data is too small, the label will be displayed outside the bar, the color of label and background of the chart is the same, and labels become unreadable.
    According to my test, if the value of data is too small, the label will be displayed outside the bar area by design. As a workaround, we can change the color of label by following steps:
    Right-click label and open Series Label Properties dialog box.
    Click Font in left pane, click drop-down arrow next to Color and select a color, then click OK.
    Besides, we can set background color of label by following steps:
    Right-click label and open Series Label Properties dialog box.
    Click Fill in left pane, click drop-down arrow next to Color, then select a color and click OK.
    In addition, we can also change color of chart area by following steps:
    Right-click chart area and open Chart Area Properties dialog box.
    Click Fill in left pane, in Pick color section, click drop-down arrow next to Color, then select a color and click OK.
    If you have any more questions, please feel free to ask.
    Thanks,

  • Color value labels based on value?

    Hi,
    I am attempting to track the mileage over time for my automobile lease.  I have created a table that allows for entering the current date and mileage that then calculates the target mileage for that given date and the difference between target and actual mileage.  The table is then represented in graphical form (pic below).
    I would like to be able to use the conditional formatting of color to display in the chart so that positive numbers are red (over target mileage) and negative numbers are green (below target mileage).  I can't seem to figure out how to accomplish this conditional formatting of value labels.  It seems like it should be possible to apply conditional cell formatting to labels?!?  Is there a way to achieve this variable colored label display in charts?
    Any assistance much appreciated!
    Bob

    You cannot format points within a series individually.  You can use two series: one positive and the other negative
    The main downside is that they won't connect when you switch between them:
    D2=IF((B2-C2) >= 0, (B2-C2), "")
    E2=IF((B2-C2)<0, (B2-C2), "")
    select D2 and E2, then fill down.  You can select the series in the chart to set the color.  I set the stoke color (for the line segment between points) and the point to to white for the Difference series

  • MS Chart Angled Labels Look Jumbled

    I have a column chart with angled X value labels.  When angled, some labels look jumbled and not in a flat, straight line.  Please see attached screenshot.  How can I improve the look of the labels when angled?

    Hi Vegas,
    After testing the issue in my local environment, I can reproduce it. Based on my test, we can try to modify the FontStyle and FontWeight properties under LabelsFont group to make the label display better.

  • Chart Legend Labels

    Hi all,
    It's extremely annoying to have to go thru all chart legend label displays and rename them to something else other than the formula.
    For example, I have a Sum of @Formula that's displaying and in order to change that, I have to go into every single chart and right click > edit label
    Is there a more round about way to do this update once?
    Thanks,

    yes that's annoying. try this if you are willing to try a workaround...
    1) put a crosstab on top of the legend that contains your formula as the row.
    2) while still in the crosstab expert, get rid of the gridlines, the cell padding
    3) exit the crosstab expert and change the row height to match the line height of the legend
    4) change the background of the crosstab so that you can't see the legend
    a bit more work, but it works.
