Data Disappears from Line Chart in Preview Mode

Help! Line chart data present in design mode, but disappears when in preview mode. I have a dashboard that I update monthly. Simple line charts. Now, the line chart data is visible while in the design view, but does not show up when in the preview view or even when converting it to a PDF or Powerpoint. SWF issue? Inputs are needed!
Thanks,
Stan

Hi Stan,
The answer to, why the data disappears in runtime mode, depends on how you retrieve the data in your dashboard.
It seems that you have some sample static data in your spreadsheet that shown in design mode. But chances are that this data is set to be overwritten in runtime mode, if you import your data using QAAWS, Live Office or similar.
I would suggest you to add a "spreadsheet table" component (found in the bottom of the Selectors category in the components browser) to your dashboard. Set the spreadsheet table to display some of the cells in the spreadsheet that you expect to get populated during runtime.
In this way you can verify if data is actually present in the relevant cells during runtime.
By the way - this is also a best practice method to test data-retrieval in Xcelsius.
I hope this helps.
Kind Regards,
Simon

How to convert from line chart data to CSV format

Hi ,
I am using Flex 3 and AS.
I am getting data from MS SQL and display the data as line
chart this is ok.
But i want to convert this line chart data to CSV or .xsl
format.I find one example in fourms the from data grid to CSV
For this URL is
http://www.abdulqabiz.com/blog/archives/flash_and_actionscript/datagriddataexporter.php
But i want Line chart to CSV.Please help me.

Line chart is a just a visual representation of some data
that's sitting in your database. Isn't it? You load this in Flex,
probably using HTTPService class, and pass it to some chart object.
Now when use says that she needs it in CSV format, you're
gonna have to send another request to the server to produce the
same data, convert into CSV or XLS format and let user download it.
Of course, if use doesn't want to download, you don't have to
go to the server, at least for CSV format. You can convert the same
data that used plot the chart to convert to CSV.
Am I missing something here?

Problem - over lie of data series in Line chart (Web Application Designer)

Dear Experts,
I have created a chart with below requiments from my user by using web application designer.
1) Key Figure 1 (Chart type -> column )
2) Key Figure 2 (Chart type -> column )
3) Key Figure 3 (Chart type -> Line; color assigned -> BLACK;    Visibility: Visible)
4) Key Figure 4 (Chart type -> Line; color assigned -> YELLOW; Visibility: Visible/Hidden)
5) Key Figure 5 (Chart type -> Line; color assigned -> RED;         Visibility: Visible/Hidden)
The line chart of Key Figure 3 must always appear in Front then others Key Figures.
Then following by, Key Figure 4. Last is Key Figure 5.
As I know the order of display line chart is infflucing by the order of Key Figure in structure by descending, likes below
1) Key Figure 3 (Rank of front -> 3rd; Chart type -> Line; color assigned -> BLACK;    Visibility: Visible)
2) Key Figure 4 (Rank of front -> 2nd; Chart type -> Line; color assigned -> YELLOW; Visibility: Visible/Hidden)
3) Key Figure 5 (Rank of front -> 1st; Chart type -> Line; color assigned -> RED;         Visibility: Visible/Hidden)
So, I have conflict on fulfilling these 2 request on assigning the color and control their visibility and lines over lie.
Please advice me if you have any suggestion on controlling the lines order.
Thanks!

Hi Priya, thanks for input.
I think I should further elaborate the problems. Thanks for your highlight.
I have a lines chart with five key figures. So my chart will have five lines.
Some lines from chart will overlap if the data are same.
When overlapping of lines happens, I want to control the order of which series should be appear first.
Likes below example,
1) Key Figure 1 (Chart type -> column )
2) Key Figure 2 (Chart type -> column )
3) Key Figure 3 (Chart type -> Line; color assigned -> BLACK; Visibility: Visible)
4) Key Figure 4 (Chart type -> Line; color assigned -> YELLOW; Visibility: Visible/Hidden)
5) Key Figure 5 (Chart type -> Line; color assigned -> RED; Visibility: Visible/Hidden)
           KF1 KF2 KF3 KF4 KF5
CW 1    30     30    80    80    50
CW 2    40     50    90    60    90
CW 3    70     50    90    90    90
CW 4    80     70    70    90    70
As you can see, there is overlap in these value.
CW 1 KF3, KF4 -->80
CW 2 KF3, KF5 --> 90
CW 3 KF3, KF4, KF5 --> 90
The order which i want the series should appear first when overlapping.
- KF3 must appear on top.
- Then, follow by KF5
- Last is KF4.
So now, i have no idea to control the overlap orders except adjusting the sequence of keyfigure from query.
Feel free to give me any input!

Remove decimal from Line Chart

Transforming XML data into SVG line charts using XSLT

Hi
I am trying to transform revenue data from an XML file into an SVG line chart. The problem is that I am quite new to XPath and XSLT and whereas I can draw the grid for my chart I struggle drawing the lines using the data from the XML doc.
The XML look something like the one below, and I would like to have one chart for each product and in each chart having the time on the x-axis and chart the revenue by regions.
Any help on this is much appreciated.
Thanks
Peter

You could try Jeni's XSLT utilities for SVG :
http://www.jenitennison.com/xslt/utilities/svg-utils.html
Specifically, the sample code provided, when a couple of SVG charts are being generated from XML data :

Instead of using SVG charting can I suggest that you look into digital charts. This service creates charts on the fly and is very easy to integrate with web applications.

Strange lines in pixel-preview mode

Hi! I have a problem.
When I'm drawing something with two windows (one is usual other in pixel preview) I have some strange white lines in pixel preview window. How can I solve it?
Hope picture will clarify my question.
Link to full size picture: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/33643074/white-lines.png

There are no white lines in output icon. These lines are not objects, they are just bugs of Illustrator. When I zoom out and immediately zoom in window with pixel preview - white lines dissapear. But when I change something in usual window (moving any object or rotate) these lines appear again (only in pixel-preview window)!

Data disappeared from iCloud. 18GB worth.

I recieved a notice that my complimentary iCloud space would expire on October 1, so I went ahead and purchased the space I would need. I got an email today (10/1) Telling me that my 25 gb plan went down to a 5gb free plan even though I already paid. On my computers and iPhone, it still shows 25gb available with only 1.2GB in use. I had about 18GB of backups and photos/documents that are now just gone. I went in to double check if I had purchased the extra space, and indeed I did purchase it. Where did all my data disappear to? Can I trust iCloud to safely keep my data? I lost some pages documents and my iphone backup.

i have the same problem. paid in August (!)..
today i have got this message:
"Your iCloud storage has been automatically adjusted to the free 5 GB plan. You are currently using 5 GB of storage."

Disappearing Shapes/images/type in Preview Mode: InDesign CC

Having issues of parts of my designs "disappearing" when toggling from Normal to Preview Screen Modes. Everything is intact when in Normal Screen Mode. However, certain shapes/lines/type/images will not be visible in Preview Screen Mode or exporting of any kind.
Please help if you have any insight - this is driving me crazy!
Thanks,
Carrie

Sounds most likely that they are on a non-printing layer or have been set not to print at the object level in the Attributes panel. The other possibility is they are using a blending mode that would cause them to disappear against a background, or they might be white objects created in Illustrator which allows the overprinting of White if the color was changed from something else set to overprint (ID is smart enough not to do that).

Why does the data disappear from my form fields when my form is sent over to client ?

Hi all,
I don't know if this is just happening a few times or ALL the time unfortunately:( I normally send over estimates (as regular pdfs) with some filled out Acrobat forms that make up part of the estimate (these include terms of agreement, project details, etc.). Now, before I send out the pdfs I password protect the entire pdf so that nothing can be changed, but that the pdf can be printed at high quality.
Well, what is happening when my client opens up the pdf (usually on a Windows machine) is that NOTHING APPEARS in all of the form fields where I had input and saved the data! Yet when I open up the form on my Mac in Acrobat, or Reader or Preview, all looks just fine. Any idea why this is happening and what I could do to prevent it from happening in the future? I am using Acrobat X.
Thank you kindly,
Christine

Hi Gilad,
I never use Preview and did not use Preview at all before sending the document over to my most recent client either.
I only opened Preview up this morning after I discovered that all of the form data had disappeared on his end! And the only reason I opened up Preview was because I already knew it looked fine in Acrobat so wanted so wanted to view the form in a different application.
My client would not even have notified me about it had he not sent the signed form back to me and I saw there was no data there! I then called him and asked him about the missing data and he said that he thought I had simply sent over the form purposely with blank fields:(
I have just emailed him to ask him what application he opened it up in. My understanding is that he is on Windows because ne mentioned to me his company was using Windows when we last spoke. Perhaps he has a personal Macbook where he opened it? I just don't know and can hopefully soon find out:)
But THANK YOU for letting me know about that script! I appreciate it:) I have now downloaded and installed it and will just have to use it on ALL of my forms before sending them out:)

User entered data disappears from view in fields after entry in Reader 9

This is a repost. The form was recreated and same problem (see below) has occurred. The person who has created these forms is a basic user, and so is not changing any settings or doing any programming, just adding fill-in fields (text boxes) and check boxes, then distributing by email through Acrobat. The problem also occurs with other forms. I cannot find any information on this problem anywhere. Any new ideas? File is attached.
A simple form with basic text boxes is created in LiveCycle ES and distributed with Acrobat Pro 9. All users have been upgraded to Acrobat Reader 9. But when the user fills in the form in Reader, the text disappears when they tab or enter into the next field. Check boxes are fine. The user also does not see the data when printing. But, after submission, the data can be seen and printed from Acrobat Pro 9 by the original sender.

This form image was created using a Toshiba MFP and had form fields added with Acrobat. There appears to be a font problem. I saved the form in Acrobat Pro Extended 9. When I opened the form in Reader 9 I was asked to install Japanese fonts since the form uses the KozMinPrN6-Regular font.
After dismissing the install request, the form fields behaved predictibly in Reader 9 (with the exception of requesting 10MB of Japanese fonts).

How to change data symbol color - line charts

In the keynote manual to change the color of lines they say you have to the graphic inspector and change the color of the line there, but that does not change the color of the data symbol (circle, triangle,...) How to change its color ?
thanks

The internal part of the dot can be changed simply by dragging a color from the Color Picker onto the dot or triangle.
You can do the same to change the color of the line.
I can find no way of actually changing the outer part of the data symbol.
The User Guide seems to not mention the subject at all.

How do I remove the data symbol on Line Charts in Numbers for iOS?

When I create a chart with many data points the data symbol gets in the way and hides the line.
I have done a lot of looking around in the chart format options and searched online but I can't find the answer to this issue.
Any fixes or suggestions would be most welcome.

You're welcome.
In Firefox 4.0 you can drag the icon back in the "View > Toolbars > Customize" window or place it on another toolbar, but that isn't possible in Firefox 3 versions.

Statistical data disappears from companies where LC does not equal GC

Hi experts : )
We have come across an issue which we cannot explain and I was hoping some you might have encountered it before and can help.
We are entering statistical data for payroll and JV cash and debt for example. We recently changed a few companies local currency from EUR to GBP. Since the change whenever statistical data is entered in those companies the values entered disapear after a while. My guess is that it is happening whenever the data collection task is executed. But what is strange is that is it only happening to the non-euro companies.
Any idea anybody what is causing this?
Your help is very much appreciated.
Regards,
Tanja

Thank you very much for your answers : )
The change of currency did take place in period 1/2011 and the BCF was configured as mentioned by Dan. However, we decided against running balance carried forward task in the end for those companies as we had difficulies matching the local currency amounts as converted by the BCT and the local currecy amount coming in from the source system. Instead the opening balances were loaded, but it seems the statistical data was not.
But then again... we already had GBP companies in period 12/2010, but their statistical data is disappearing also even though their BCF was run... Any ideas on this particular case?
Kind regards,
Tanja
