Chart y axis scaling using msum

hi,
Is there any possibility to change the y-axis(sales- msum) range in the charts? I did search, but couldnt find the proper answer for this.
Let us say I have my y-axis sales range 0 - 1million, but dont have any values under 0.8million. So I want to keep my chart y-axis range starts from 0.8million. I have the sales in the chart that is calculated using msum.
Is there any such option to customize the y-axis scale ?
Thanks,
Mani

Hi Mani,
You can do that by setting minimum value and maximum value in Axis scaling tab(middle tab in 5 tabs for chart ) in chart view.
Thanks

Charts data axis scaling problem

Post Author: rameshp
CA Forum: Charts and Graphs
Hi ,
I work on crystal reports XI.
I'm facing problem regarding scaling data axis. I have illustrated that in the following lines:
case1) if i have high values (sum of bytes) like more than 600 etc. its scaling data axis from 0 to say 1000.
case 2) if i have low values like 0,1 (bytes) then its scaling from -4 to say 6 .
I don't want negative values on data axis . I want from 0 to max. So what's the better way to do this using chart expert.
Your suggestion is highly appreciated !
Thanks,
Ramesh.

satwar,
There is no "trick", we're just victims of the limitation that WebI has in portraying XYZ type charts to our better liking. I submitted a request to Business Objects Tech Support in Oct 2006 and became the proud holder of two ADAPTs:
ADAPT00676587 u2013 for the scaling issueADAPT00676609 u2013 for the stacked bar chart, line graph issue
When fully implemented, the scaling for Y and Z should be able to correspond to each other. For instance, max value of Y and max value of Z will set on both scales the same max value. I don't discourage you from submitting a trouble-ticket, perhaps if they get more noise on this situation they'll resolve my (our) ADPAT sooner, but just hoping....

Log scaling intesity chart y-axis

is it possible to change the scaling of the y-axis on an intesity chart to log scaling?

Hi DNyg,
This is actually a known issue in LabVIEW and CAR (corrective action request 372856) has been submitted to our research and development team. I have gone ahead and added this post to the CAR so they can see that more people have encountered this issue. In the meantime, a potential work-around would be to manually scale your Y-axis data logrithmically before wiring it into your intensity chart.

Chart Data Axis (Y) Scale - keep constant over groups, dynamic for report

Crystal XI
I want to chart how many transactions there are at a teller, showing number of transactions per hour, with a separate chart for each day in a range that the user specifies at run time through paramaters.
So I group on date at report level, and make my chart on change of hour show count of transactions, and that works.
But using autoscale, EACH CHART is scaled on the Y axis, so for a day that has a peak of 5 tx per hour, that hour reaches top of chart, where next day, there is an hour with 100 tx. So you can't tell at a glance that day 2 was busier than day 1.
I like the auto scale, but I'd like it to consider the report for the scaling. Is there a way to do that? Or do some chart types let me do it and others don't? (I've looked at Bar and Area charts)
I can't use a fixed scale, because different customers have wildly different typical numbers. (I could use a dynamically calculated fixed scale, but I don't see that that's an option) If there's a way to use a formula for the data scale, I'm missing it, and that would probably solve my problem.
Assuming I'm out of luck there - I can change the query as necessary, and I suspect I'm giong to have to use some gimmick like chart my maximum value in invisible ink, if someone's been down the road and knows a solution, if you can give me a quick hint on that, I'd appreciate it.

If all else fails, you can do this easily with our CRChart add-in using the @SC family of macros which allow you to set the Y-Axis scale min/max dynamically (i.e. map them to a field or formula at runtime).

2D Axis Scaling Bug in Reports (DIAdem 2014)

Hello,
I've run across a rarther annoying bug in the 2D axis scaling for Reports. Here's how to recreate it:
Load a dataset that has x and y components.
Create a new layout in the Report tab
On Sheet1, add a Simple 2D Axis System.
Select x and y from the dataset and drag it into the 2D axis system.
Change the scaling mode from "Completely Automatic" to "Manual."
Change the "Begin" number to something close to the default DIAdem has set. Do not touch the "End" number. Click OK.
Add Sheet2 and repeat steps #3 thru #6 on Sheet2 with a different dataset.
Both plots look good right now...
Go to Sheet2 and double click on the chart to bring up the Curve and Axis Definition.
Don't touch anything...just click "Cancel."
After clicking Cancel, the scaling of the 2D axis completely changes. I believe what happens is that DIAdem takes whatever the previous "End" number was and uses that instead of the "End" number you want. Also, you don't actually have to go into the Curve and Axis Definition to create this bug. Press cancel while editing anything like text (for example)...bye bye plot.
Moreover, if I go back in and set the scaling mode back to Auto, click preview to refresh the plot, then switch the mode to Manual, everything looks good. However, if I copy Sheet2, the plot on Sheet2_Copy1 is messed up the same way as if I hit Cancel but Sheet2 is OK.
Worst of all, the undo function does not work on this unwanted scaling change.
This is a bug that makes plots in the Report files almost unusable. I hope this is re-producable on other systems so a patch can be issued. Let me know what you find.
The only workaround I've found is to click OK instead of Cancel, which isn't always preferred.
Thanks,
Jacob
Solved!

Hello jrasco,

PlotXY manual X Axis Scaling doesn't rescale Y-Axis auto-scaling

I'm using PlotXY(..) to display data on a graph.
I use SetAxisScalingMode(...) to set set VAL_LEFT_YAXIS to VAL_AUTOSCALE.
I use SetAxisScalingMode(...) to set set VAL_TOP_XAXIS scaling to VAL_MANUAL.
I make various calls to SetAxisScalingMode(...) which change the min & max values for the X-Axis.
Everything thing seems to display correctly except that changing min & max values using manual scaling on the x-axis does not seem to change the range of data used to auto-scale the y-axis.
For example say you have a peak in your data that you want to exclude so the auto-scaling on the y-axis will zoom in.
So you change the max, min manual x-axis scaling to leave out the peak but scaling but the y-axis scaling doesn't change.
Is this the way it should work?
Ideas for a work around?
Thanks,
Kirk

Hi Kirk,
As you've noticed, the autoscaling of an axis in the graph is based on the entire data of each plot, not just on the portion of the plot that is within the range of the other axis.
If you use only integer limits for the min and max of the x axis, if you plot only 1D arrays, and if you don't mind re-plotting every time that you want to manually change the x-axis, there's a possible workaround, consisting of replacing PlotY with PlotWaveform, so that you can offset the data to plot.
I've adapted the code that you attached earlier to illustrate this:
int xmin = 40;
int xmax = 90;
SetAxisScalingMode(handle, PANEL_GRAPH, VAL_BOTTOM_XAXIS, VAL_MANUAL, (double)xmin, (double)xmax);
PlotWaveform (handle, PANEL_GRAPH, datapoints + xmin, xmax - xmin, VAL_DOUBLE, 1.0, 0.0, xmin, 1.0,
style, VAL_EMPTY_SQUARE, VAL_SOLID, 1, color);

Manual X axis scaling

Hello,
I would like to scale x axis manually. For example, the x axis data will be like this:
70
71
72
73
74
75
110
111
112
113
160
161
162
As a result, there will be a gap between 75 and 110 (also between 113 and 60). In order to diminish the gap, I have to config the x scaling like 70...75, 110...113, 160...162. Is it possible to solve this problem?
Thanks
kind regards,
zhiyao

Hi zhiyao,
There is no configuration setting in DIAdem to do this with one axis system. What you could do if you wanted to solve this without programming would be to place two axis systems side by side (one on the left, the other just to the right of it), then configure their x axes accordingly:
[ 70, 71, 72, 73, 74, 75 ] [ 110, 111, 112, 113 ]
In the example you listed, you would need 3 axis systems.
If you're willing to program the solution, then you can change only the x axis numbering with a user command that is placed in the format string of the x axis text, but this does not affect the way the values are graphed. In that case you would need to plot the data vs. array index, so that the real x axis always ran [1, 2, 3, 4, ...], but you could change the display of the x axis to match the real x values, stored in the x channel [ 70, 71, 72, 73, 74, 75, 110, 111, 112, 113, 160, 161, 162 ]. Type "CFV" into the search field of the DIAdem Help to see more on the subject of changing the x axis display using the CFV variable in the x axis format string.

Pivot Chart X-Axis Values

Hi
I generated one report using pivot char. In pivot chart row page i added datetime and time field.
In my chart x axis should be display time label only. But values should be group by Date.
How to set x axis time value only in my chart.
If i removed date from row page the value will be wrong.
Thanks

Hi,
You can retain both the datetime and time field so that your group by date option doesnt get effected.
When it comes to display..To have only time value in the X axis heading as well as Scale labels. Please follow the following steps.
1. Heading: Pivot table View : Axis titles and labels : Change the title
2. Scale Labels: Pivot table View : Axis titles and labels : Labels : Format : Truncate : 6.
By Truncating the labels. You may get two dots in the end of each label. But hope this may help you.

Amrutha.

2D scaling using a VBscript

Hi,
I would like to change the begin and end point of a 2D system using a VBscript inside Diadem . But I have not found an example of how I can use "D2AxisXScaletype" parameter.
I have tried in this way:
Call GraphObjChnClear("2DAxis1")
call GraphObjOpen(D2AxisYObj(D2AxisPairNo(1)))
D2AxisXScaletype= "begin/end manual"
D2AxisXDivMode="linear"
' this is my start point
D2AxisXBegin=chd(1, intNumChannel)
' thjs is my last point
D2AxisXEnd=chd(NumMaxMin, intNumChannel)
call GraphObjClose(D2AxisYObj(D2AxisPairNo(1)))
' Close axis object.
Call GraphObjClose("2DAxis1")
But I generate the following error:
Invalid variable access (D2AXISXSCALETYPE).
Parent object open?
Can someone send my an example of how I should work with "D2AxisXScaletype"?
Thanks

Hi koniker,
You're close to having the code correct. But you open up the Y axis and then try to edit the X axis scaling method-- that won't work. Try this code instead:
intNumChannel = 1
NumMaxMin = ChnLength(intNumChannel)
Call GraphObjOpen("2DAxis1")
Call GraphObjOpen(D2AxisXObj(1))
D2AxisXScaletype = "begin/end manual"
D2AxisXDivMode = "linear"
D2AxisXBegin = ChDX(1, intNumChannel)
D2AxisXEnd = ChDX(NumMaxMin, intNumChannel)
Call GraphObjClose(D2AxisXObj(1))
Call GraphObjClose("2DAxis1")
Call PicUpdate

Stack strip chart x axis

Hi y'all
is there a way, besides just putting one strip chart on top of another strip chart and have it aligned just right to hide the x axis and be on the same x scale as the others. For example: Schart #1 represents the pressure in the system, Schart #2 current , Schart #3 voltage.
Now I could have all these on one strip chart but while acquiring data it is hard to determine one line from another when you have 16 channels scrolling past on the same strip chart.
What I am looking for is something like the digital graphs where you have multiple views on the same x axis.
Is there a way to do this besides stacking strip charts on top of one another?
Are there any proposed changes coming that would include this?
Thanks

As far as I know there is no possiblity to obtain your goal other than stacking more charts one on top of each other. The digital graph is lot more simple as digital signals can have only 0 or 1 value, so it is possible to plot them on the same graph with some y-offset without losing the real meaning of the signal itself. With analog signals this is considerably more complex, as each of them must reference to an analog scale.
Alternative ways to address your situation are to use the secondary Y-axis to hold some of the plots or to use the legend to permit hiding/showing individual plots to make easy to the user to read the chart.
Proud to use LW/CVI from 3.1 on.

SSRS 2008: Line chart Y-Axis scale issue

Hi All,
After search of one week, finally decided to put my question in front of you all. Hope I will get some outcome from it.
Currently I am working on Line Chart. Following is the data which I need to bind to line chart.
    JobStartDate JobStartTime   JobEndTime
    1/1/2015       01.00            02.30
    1/2/2015       01.02            03.20
    1/3/2015       01.01            03.40
    1/4/2015       01.05            02.00
    1/5/2015       22.03            23.30
    1/6/2015       22.05            23.40
So, In above scenario Line chart looks like:
      11.00 PM |                          /////////
      10.00 PM |                          ..........
      ........ |
      04.00 AM |              /
      03.00 AM |    / /
      02.00 AM | /                /
      01.00 AM | .....................
      12.00 AM |______________________________________________
               1/1/15 1/2/15 1/3/15 1/4/15 1/5/15 1/6/15
But it should be like :
      04.00 AM |                /
      03.00 AM |     / /
      02.00 AM | /                /
      01.00 AM |   .....................
      12.00 AM |
      11.00 PM |
      10.00 PM |
      09.00 PM |______________________________________________
                    1/1/15 1/2/15 1/3/15 1/4/15 1/5/15 1/6/15
(Sorry As cant upload the image. So, Tried to show as above.)
In above figure (.) is StartTime and (/) is EndTime.
You can see that I am facing the problem of Y-Axis scaling.
Hope everyone understand my problem. Please let me know more explanation.

Hi Prashant Khadatkar,
As per my understanding, you created a line chart, you added JobStartTime and JobEndTime to values area, and added JobStartDate to category groups. You want to display data of y axis from PM to AM. In order to improve the efficiency of troubleshooting, I
need to ask several questions:
What’s the data type of JobStartTime and JobEndTime?
Is the data stored in database the same as you provided?
What’s the state of report now? Please provide some more detailed information of the report. I would be appreciated it if you could provide sample data and screenshot of the report.
This may be a lot of information to ask for at one time. However, by collecting this information now, it will help us move more quickly toward a solution.
Thanks,

Pivot table charts Y axis scale

Hi,
My Pivot Table creates 6 charts as my Dimension in Section for Pivot Table has 6 values. But each chart depending on the values for Y axis has a different scale, for example my first chart has $0.000, $4.000, $8.000, $12.000, $16.000, $20.000 my second chart has $0.000, $15.000, $30.000, $45.000, $60.000, and my 3rd chart has a whole set of different numbers, is it possible for me to make all the charts have the same values in my Y axis, even if my graph is going to look odd(thats what the client wants)?
Please help.
Thank you.

Hi
We can give the minimum axis value and max value for axis.Give this min and max for all the charts and try.In pivot view top left corner-->Axis scaling-->mark specify manually and mark max and min and give values.Hope it will helps u.
Thanks

How to set up gap on bar chart (Y-AXIS)

I have a column graph that displays Month on X-AXIS and quantity of complaint on Y-AXIS.
The quantity per customer can be different.
Eg: Customer A can have value from 50 to 10000
Customer B can have value from 0 to 5.
The problem I have is:
When it is customer A, it works well on Y-AXIS. it shows 0, 1000, 2000.... 10000
But, when it is customer B, it shows 0, 0.5, 1.0, 2.5, 3.0, 3.5 .... 5.0
How can I get rid of the decimals?
I have formatted the number to be without decimal. But, it is still showing 0,0.5, 1.0 etc.

hi Shwu Hua Gan,
what you need to do is to use 2 charts in conditionally suppressed sections. this is because the axis labels can not be formatted dynamically.
so create a new section below the section where your chart is now, copy your existing chart and then format the scale in the new chart by right clicking on one of the Y axis values and choosing Data Y Axis Options. use the Scale & Numbers tab options to format the axis for this new chart.
now you need to conditionally suppress the original section and the new section. you may want the original section to show up when the Y Axis maximum is going to be greater than 100 so your suppression formula would be something like
maximum({your value field}, {your customer group field}) <= 100
and the suppression formula for the second section would be something like
maximum({your value field}, {your customer group field}) > 100

How to get y axis value(in a numeric control) by providing x-axis value using wave graph

Hi,
I'm new here, Sorry if i have selected wrong Location.
I want to get Y-axis value (in a numeric Control) by providing X-axis Value using Wave graph.
i want to do calculations with the obtained value.
i have attached File and Snapshot.

Well, you are using the Dynamic Data Type, which I almost never use, but if you convert the data to a WaveForm (using From DDT on the Signal Manipulation Palette, which is a choice when you right-click on the DDT Wire), you should be able to do this. Do you know about how Waveforms are stored? They are a Cluster, with t0 being a TimeStamp for the start of the Waveform, dt being the time step, and Y being the samples. So if you want a point at 0.5 seconds and dt is 0.001, you would pull out the point at Index 499 (offset 0) from the Y array.
