Color Problem on Bar Chart

I created a bar chart with Crystal 9.2 on my laptop. I then copied that rpt file to the company server. The report ran fine using the company's Crystal Xi, except that most of the colors disappeared from my bar chart. Only a couple bars are in color, and they are pure yellow.
Any idea as to why this is happening and how I can resolve it?
Thanks,
Art

Hi Art,
1. Click on the Bar so as to highlight it in the Bar Chart.
2. Then Right Click on that Bar and Go to Chart Options. The Chart Options window gets open.
3. Then in the Appearance Tab you will see the Gap Width. Try to increase or decrease the Gap between the bars and check whether you see the other bars.
4. Click Ok.
Hope this helps to resolves your issue.

Abhijeet T.

Crystal Report Version 11.5.8.826 - Color Sorting - Stacked Bar Chart Issue

Hi All,
I have issue on sorting the color on stacked bar chart.
Below steps are not reflect the color sorting.
1. Right click on chart area in the report
2. Select chart expert
3. Go to Color Highlight tab
4. In the item list, change the sequence of color
Is there any way to sort the color on stacked bar chart?
Please advise, thank you.
Regards, Sumardi

hi,
You can right click on each bar individually,
Format Series Riser -> Fill -> Foreground Color.
This will apply the required colors.
Also, if you have any color standards, try to create a sample report with this kind of Chart and specify the colors individually.
Right Click the chart -> Save as Template.
In future, if any other reports have Stacked Bar Chart with same color standards, you can directly re-use this template.

Fine-grained control of colors in a bar chart

Hello,
Short version: How do I control the colors of the bars in a bar chart in Keynote, so that each bar, representing a particular entity, retains its color no matter its position relative to the other bars after updating the chart?
Detailed version: I am using iWork '09. In Keynote I have a 3D bar chart showing an indicator for different companies (industry comparison). The companies are sorted in ascending order by revenue, so that the lowest bar (company with smallest revenue) is to the far left and the tallest - to the far right. I update the chart regularly. I have the following problem: each bar, representing a company, is in a particular color. When I update the chart, if the the order of the companies changes, the colors of the bars do not change, so that in the new chart the order of the colors is the same, although some or all of the bars now represent different companies. In other words: if in version 1 company A is in red and comes before company B which is in blue, if in the next version company A comes after company B, I want its bar to still be red. In the current situation, if company A comes after company B its bar will be blue and comapny B's will be red, i.e. red still comes before blue.

I have to give up the beautiful colors of the automatic chart and only use the restricted number of colors from the color well.
There is no restricion in the choice of colour, the colour depth on a Mac has over 16 million to choose from.
Further, the fill type has options for; colour, gradient, image and tint

Problem with bar chart and conditionals

Hi Experts!
I have a problem doing a chart
My chart is horizontal barchart...and Axis Y there is some accounts of a dimension...
There is two kind of accounts...when value is > 0 then green and < 0 then red and other kind is > 0 red and < 0 green... so each bar is an account but depends of each account it will be green or red. In tables I can do it with conditional format depends of other column...but I can't do it with a chart.
Is possible to do this?
Thanks!!!
I add a picture with my problem: http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/849/barchart.jpg/

Hi,
In 11g in graph properties in the second tab(STYLE)-->Graph Data ..Style and Conditional Formatting-->Conditional Formatting .
You can see all the columns used.
You can select the column and specify the filter condition and select the color for the graph.
You can select for which column you need to have the conditional formatting.

Problem with Bar Chart using Date Data

I am trying to make a simple horizontal bar chart as a Gantt chart. I am trying to set the min and max for the X axis but it is acting strangely. As you can see in the screenshot below, I set the min to 1/1/2000 but the chart uses 9/28/2011. Similar problem with the max setting. Am I doing something wrong here? Can anyone duplicate this? Anyone have a solution other than this workaround I am now using (which I assume will break my chart once Apple fixes this problem)?

BadUnit,
I assume Numbers, like me, is confused why you would set min/max limits that do not include the data?
I do get the same result as you when I enter the time range for the chart as 1/1/2000 thru 1/1/2004.
I even tried making a separate table for the chart:
There is definitley a problem.
When I enter, what I think are reasonable, min and max dates for the chart
min = 1/1/2013
max = 12/31/2015
The chart adjusts like this:

A question about Bar Colors in SSRS Bar Chart

I have a chart in a report that has 27 categories, and no series. The categories all display properly with the correct results, so the chart is informationally (not sure that's a word) correct but all the bars are the same color. If I try to ass a series, each bar shows up as a different color but now each category has 27 bars in it (actually, it has one really thin bar and room for 26 more that are not showing.)
So, my question is, can I have the colors of the individual bars be different for each category without having to use a series? I know I can use a SWITCH Statement and assign a different color to each value, but that isn't a viable solution as the categories could change and new ones could show up later.
Oh, in case the information is relevant: I am building the report in Visual Studio 2008.
This topic first appeared in the Spiceworks Community

Hi Lesea, Virtex4 is not supported by Soft Error Mitigation (SEM) Core, and I need to protect the Virtex4 LX25 FPGA by simple scrubbing. The configuration management engine I designed is the same as that in Correcting Single-Event Upsets in Virtex-4 FPGA Configuration Memory. I also do the fault injection experiment, and the configuration management engine can correct the faults in the Virtex4 LX25 FPGA.
On my board: digital signal A---->encode---->D/A---->A/D---->decode---->digital signal B
When I don't scrubbing the FPGA, the signal B is always the same as the signal A, so I think my board and the software in the FPGA operate well. When I scrubbing the FPGA too frequently, the signal B is not always the same as signal A(I only scrubbing the DSP, IOB, CLK, and CLB logic and I shield the LUT RAM and SRL16 logic). So I think the problem is caused by my configuration management engine.
I also find that the time between two scrubbing process can not be too short. For instance, if I delay only several clks(2.3825MHz) before the next scrubbing process, the signal B is not always the same as the signal A. But if I delay 0.1s, 1s or 10s before the next scrubbing process, the signal B is always the same as the signal A. So how can I solve the problem? I can do experiment to find the minimal time between the two scrubbing process that have no influence on my software. I want to know what causes this problem. Thank you:)

Color change of bar chart in webi .

Hi All,
I have created a Webi Report with drill-down functionality .
Suppose i have data for 2 years 2008 & 2009 and i want color of both years to be different .
When i drilldown i want colors of subsequent products to be composed of different colors.

hi,
create a table with 2 columns 1)Year 2)Sales Revenue
Year has 2 values 2008 & 2009
Create an Alerter on Year
Year Equal to 2008 - Red color
Year Equal to 2009 - Blue color
Now Enable Alerter on two columns. Ensure tick mark exists for 2 columns in the table.
2008 records will turn to red.
2009 records will turn to blue.
When you drill on 2008, detail data will appear in Red color
When you drill on 2009, detail data will appear in Blue color.
This logic can be extendable depending upon no. of Year values.
Limitation : Year values should be static. If they are dynamic, Alerter will not be suitable.

How i can change bar chart color in runtime??

i have a bar chart with red as a default color.
<mx:BarSeries
id="progressBar"
yField="Task_Name"
minField="Start_Date"
xField="Progress_Date"
displayName="Progress"
>
<mx:fill>
<mx:SolidColor id="progressColor" color="red"/>
</mx:fill>
i want to give the user the option to change the color. i
used the following code:
progressColor.color = colorChooser.selectedColor;
colorChooser is color picker components.
but that doesn't work. it doesn't change the color. it just
changes the tooltip border color of the bar chart.
please help
thanks

hi Shafr
beleive it or not, i got it using trial and error. i keep
trying words in the function setStyle until the color changed. i
dont know why it is not documented.
var periodBarColor:SolidColor = new
SolidColor(taskSchedColorChooser.selectedColor, 1);
periodBar.setStyle("fill",periodBarColor);
//where taskSchedColorChooser is colorPicker component. you
can replace it by any color you want

Problem with Stacked Bar Chart

I have a problem with a stacked bar chart in Numbers 09. My chart is a single series with 6 categories. All of the categories have different values. The first 5 categories display correctly. However, the last category does not display in the color its supposed to, but rather shows up as white/background instead of the grey color shown on the legend. However, the value label is displayed in the proper place.
When I select other chart types (pie, regular bar, or regular column) the category shows up like it's supposed to.
This is kind of annoying since I would rather use stacked bar instead of a pie chart. Is there an upper limit on the number of values it can display as a stacked bar chart? Is this just a bug? Thanks!

Here's my result with six values in a single series. I double clicked the last bar to change its colour from the default grey (which was visible) to magenta.
Numbers 2.0.3, iBook G4, OS X v10.4.11
(Shot in the dark:) Try double clicking the value label, then changing the order position of this item.

Barry

Color Highlights not working in bar chart with two data points

Iu2019m using Crystal Reports 2011. I have created a bar graph using two data fields in the Chart Expert. I have set the colors for the bars in the Color Highlights tab, but the colors that I have defined have not been applied to the graph.
I have tried changing the colors numerous times and have done it in both design and preview modes. It seems to be somethign with having two data points because I don't have this problem when using just one data point. Please help!

is the colour mode Color by group or color by series

Different colors for same series in bar chart / "Deviation" Chart

Hello,
I calculate the absolute deviation for a certain characteristic - let's say 0CUSTOMER - with respect to an average value on a certain key figure - let's say "Sales".
Let's say, the average "Sales" over 3 customers is 100 .
Customer 1 has "Sales" = 150 (-> deviation = +50)
Customer 2 has "Sales" = 80 (-> deviation = -20)
Customer 3 has "Sales" = 70 (-> deviation = -30)
I'd like to show the positive and negative deviations (which build up one series) in a bar chart that is able to show the positive values in a different color than the negative values (green for positive; red for negative).
I tried the bar chart of the WAD, but I have no idea, how I can have values of the same series be shown in two different colors depending on their value (e. g. positive vs. negative).
Is there a way to smartly solve this problem?
Thanks for any answer in advance.
Best Regards,
Philipp

Hello Kai,
I've already seen that value range functionality in the chart editor. But actually I'm doing my first steps concercnig the WAD and chart design - still quite unexperienced user
I will give it a try with the value ranges... perhaps it helps me solving the problem. I will report on the outcome here.
Thx,
Philipp

CR for VS 2005 - Bar Chart - Bar colors

Hi,
I'm creating a report in Visual Studio 2005 and have a bar chart in it. I've searched the forums but can't seem to find out how to change the colors of the Series bars.
If anybody has any ideas or suggestions, they would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Ron

Apparently, the version of CR that ships with Visual Studio doesn't allow much in the way of customization. I have since upgraded to CR 2008 and can now change the bar colors.

How to change the color of bar in bar chart

Hi I'm
using Crystal Reports 2005 with Visual Studio 2005. How do i change the color of the bar in a bar chart, i don't see any options, someone telling in the forum that i can simply right click on the bar and choose color, but i don't get that option. all i can select is the entire chart object.
any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks
yesvee

You have to make sure that you select the correct part of the bar.
For Example: When you click on the outside of the chart, the entire chart will be selected. Clicking somewhere inside the chart will also highlight the entire chart, but to highlight a specific bar or line you have to click until only that part is highlighted.
Once you have the bar or series highlighted, right-click on the highlighted section and then select Chart Options, or "Format Series Riser" and you should be able to change the colour of the bar/line.
