Date format in a chart

Hello,
I have in a chart on the X Axis the date in this format: 10/1/2008, 10/2/2008, ...
I would like to change the date with the french format like this : mercredi 1 octobre 2008, jeudi 2 octobre 2008, ...
How i can do that? I tried the option format but i just can change the size of the text.

Hello Raghavendra,
I tried to following your instructions but i don't see the same thing as you. Here is:
1) right click on date field on x axis and go to chart options--> OK
2) axes--> I don't see this option. The possibles options are:
u2022 Template...
u2022 General...
u2022 Titles...
u2022 Grid...
u2022 Selected Item...
I tried to continue with the option "Grid..." but i didn't see the specific option for the x axis. On the other hand, i saw one tab for "Data Axis" and another one for the "Group Axis". I tried to change the "category:" option from "General" to "Date" in the --> "Data Axis" --> "Number" tab option. The problem is the change is done for the y axis. Not good!
Finally, i tried with the "Group Axis" tab option. I can see the "Number" tab but i can't use it because it is disable.
Thanks for your help!
Regards,
Éric

  • Date format in charts

    Hello,
    is it possible to change the date format in a chart?? Example: From 'dd.mm.YYYY' to 'dd'
    Edited by: Gerrit Lober on Jun 25, 2008 2:21 PM

    Hi
    No it is not possible to change the date format in Chart
    Bcos the chart displays the values or the date from the report.
    If you need to change the display in chart then Display in the report should be changed.

  • How to set date format dd.MM.yy for chart time axis

    Is it possible to set default date format dd.MM.yy instead of MM/dd/yy in Flex charts without using label function ?
    In this case we do not know beforehand the length of the time span; it can be minutes, days or weeks.
    Setting locales in compiler options or locale settings for application seems not having any effect.

    For example
    - mx:Barchar
    - if time span is 4 minutes; time axis format is HH:mm and shows 10:00, 10:01, 10:02, 10:03 ; *this correct*
    - if time span is 5 days; time labels are automatically in MM/dd/yy format; question is how to change this automation
    to format dd.MM.yy
    - how to do this *without* dateformatter and *without* coding "if time span is is longer than day nyt less than week then use dd.MM.yy format" ?

  • Line Chart - date format

    Hi,
    i have some troubles with a "normal" line-chart. (graphType="LINE_VERT_ABS")
    The data is something like that:
    xvalue           yvalue
    01.01.2006     100
    02.01.2006     101
    03.01.2006     102
    04.01.2006     101
    01.02.2006     102
    02.02.2006     102
    03.02.2006     101
    01.03.2006     100
    02.03.2006     99
    03.03.2006     101
    I define the chart with:
    groups="xvalue" dataValues="yvalue"
    worked fine, BUT:
    I had to change the date-format from dd.mm.yyyy to "only" mm/yy.
    Now just 1 yvalue of every xvalue-group is displayed - the chart has only the following points:
    xvalue          yvalue
    01/06          100
    02/06          102
    03/06          100
    Does anybody know a solution where every point is shown just with the other date-format?

  • Date Formatting in Charts and Dynamic column resizing in Cross tabs

    Hi All,
    I am new to Design Studio, so am in desperate need of your help on the following:
    Is there a way we can change the date format in x axis in charts?
    For ex: Am getting dates as mm/yyyyy from BW but requirement is to show in yy-Mon
    Requirement is to display data in cross tab just below the charts. How can I make the column widths in the cross tab the same as x-axis divisions in the chart? Also, this will be dynamic as depending on filter selection x axis scaling in charts will vary.
    In cross tab, can I hide the column header?
    Would really appreciate any kind of help from you.
    Thanks & Regards
    Swasti

    HI Swasti,
    To answer your first question, in Design Studio it's what you see is what you get! so it shows the Data Labels as it is in the BEx output, if you have to modify this you have to change it in the Background.
    There might be CSS workarounds, but I am not sure if that will satisfy your requirements.
    You can fix the Column width, but it would be constant, aligning that to your X-axis would require a lot of Effort.
    You cannot hide the Column header directly, but one workaround would be to use a white BG text component to overlay on the Crosstab.

  • Data label formatting for SVG charts seems to have a bug in 1.6.

    Could you take a look at
    http://htmldb.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=20794:1
    The first chart does not have a format mask and the chart works correctly. The 2nd chart is an exact copy of the first chart, but has a Data Label Format mask. I have tried several different format masks and they all cause the chart to only display one bar.
    By the way, this worked correctly in 1.4. I discovered it on moving an application to 1.6.
    Thanks

    Doyle,
    you can work around the problem by getting rid of the data format in the page definition and applying your own formatting using the TO_CHAR function.
    You could even make it dynamic by storing the data format in a page item, picking it from a static LOV for instance.
    That would allow a user to choose the preferred one.
    If you don't want to give the user this flexibility, then you can store the mask in a hidden item, so that you can make the feature available at a later stage of development.

  • Data Format on charts

    Is possible to get Decimal Places UP to x on chart properties data format?
    I can change this property on criteria column, but If I want to change Vertical Axis Labels, Data Labels...only can change decimal places from 1 to 6...but I would like to select UP to 2.
    Changing xml advanced code with minDigits=2 to minDigits=0 and maxDigits=2...doesn't work.

    Any solution??
    Thanks!

    In a pie chart, the whole 'pie' represents 'all of the data graphed'. 
    In percent, that's "one hundred per cent", or "one hundred per hundred"
    As a fraction, the whole circle represents 100/100, or 1/1 or 1.00 — all of which mean "one whole thing".
    Smaller portions are written as fractions of the whole, with the 'whole' fixed at 100 (percent) or 1.00.
    So a 20 pence piece represents 20/100 of a pound, which is 20 percent of a pound, or may be written as a decimal as 0.20 pound.
    One pound is 1.00 pound, or 100% of a pound.
    A 10 pound note is 10.00 pounds, or 1000% of a pound.
    And getting into the range of values on your Chart 16, 455 pounds is 455.00 pounds, or 45500% of one pound, which, as you can see, is correctly represented on the chart.
    Here's a pair of charts, and the table that feeds them. Same data as in your example, but with the Y axis scale showing the raw data numbers on Chart 1, and the fraction of the total (1146) that each amount represents on the chart 2.
    Formatting the Y axis labels to show percent doesnt change the values. The numbers are multiplied by 100, and the % sign is attached to show that these are the number per hundred. For chart 1, where the current scale takes no account of the total, converting to percent doesn't make sense.
    For Chart 2, with the current scale, the four bars show (approximately) 0.2, 0.3, 0,4 and 0.1. Altogether, that's 0.2+0.3+0.4+0.1 = 1.0
    Converting Chart 2's Y axis values to percents changes the labels on the four non-zero lines to 10, 20, 30 and 40%. The four bars now show 20, 30, 40 and 10 percent. Add those up and you get 100% (which is always the total percentage of 'the whole thing'.

  • "date format not recognised" in DBMS_SESSION, on page over db_link

    Hi,
    I have an Apex 4.0 page which has a region that gets data constituted from a connection across a database link.
    The host database is 11.1.0.6 and the remote database is 9.0.1. (Both Standard Edition)
    I am using EPG.
    Intermittently, I receive the following error (having turned debugging on):
    Wed, 25 Aug 2010 10:21:53 GMT
    ORA-20867: ORA-01821: date format not recognized

    ORA-06512: at line 30
    I'm somewhat confused as to what is causing the generation of this error.
    After receiving this error, anything I else that I do that involves building 'pages' works perfectly fine. I can login/out, no problems.
    However, if I try and RUN any page within my application thereafter (all of these access local DB information apart the 1 that generates the error), I continue to receive exactly the same error - no matter which page I am trying to access.
    Help?
    - Tony.

    Hi Patrick,
    No. I haven't yet applied the patchset. May do that this afternoon now.
    I don't believe I've manually set any date formats anywhere. Just entered the Builder with default options (apart from choosing a theme) and away I went!!
    What surprises me is that the application has no problems viewing all the data. The functionality all seems fine. I had this working on a previous setup for months,. without any problems, using version 3.2. (This wasn't migrated though, this was a rebuild from scratch.)
    From further "tests", the error seems to occur when I edit the page that involves the remote data.
    Normally, a user would land on the page from having used a hyperlink column on a previous page's classic report region.
    The point at which it all starts to go wrong is if I connect to the page as normal, but then EDIT the page, and then try and re-run it.
    The problem with the date format then re-occurs repetitively, no matter which page I try and view. Sometimes pages will load some components, but then generate odd errors with others. e.g. I have a small series of 3 dial charts, all with slightly varying SQL series (same SQL, slightly different where clause). Now I am seeing that 1 may load and 2 may give odd flash errors...
    Right now, I just tried to Export my application - and I still got given the date format error!! Sub-sequent retries allowed the operation to complete successfully.
    The only way I seem to be able to eradicate the recurring errors is to kill all the currently connected ANONYMOUS users in the DB, and then relog to the application.
    - Tony.

  • Export all data from my waveform chart to excel

    Hello, my name is Chris. I am just learning to use LabView. Everything I have learned so far is through these boards. Which is a valuable tool for someone learning. The VI I am working on is to monitor current from a unit we are testing. I am able to monitor current and have it running in what I believe to be real time. As I said, this is the first one I have made. I am trying to export all the data from my Waveform Chart to a report. Everytime I try I get one instance and it measures 0. I don't know what I am doing wrong. Any help would be appreciated. Also, if you have any suggestions on the all around working of this I would appreciate that as well. Thank you in advance.

    Hey Christophrt,
    If you are trying to display the microseconds for a waveform chart in LabVIEW here is how you can do it:
    Go to the Chart Properties>Display Format>X-Axis>Advanced editing mode>enter:
    %<%I:%M:%S%6u>T  as the format string and you will have the hours: minutes: and seconds to the microseconds. 
    If you are trying to display the exported data in microseconds in Excel, you will probably have to do some formatting changes in Excel to have that work.

    Your solution stacks all my entries into one column instead

    Why didn't the <labelFormat style="ShortDate:

    Can you explain, or point me to a source, of how your lines
    work? - I really need to learn XML but it just doesn't seem to
    quite make sense to me.
    Your entries are all in one column because either:
    (1) You did not set the parseFormat pattern to match what was
    being returned by the database
    or
    (2) The chart granularity is set for monthly data and the
    data does not span enough time. Change the dateTimeStyle to:
    <dateTimeStyle majorUnit="Day" minorUnit="Day"/>
    <labelFormat style="ShortDate" pattern="Mmm-dd" /> did
    not work because (1) you needed to switch the axis mode to datetime
    and (2) the chart engine is very stupid and needs to be told
    exactly how to parse the values returned in the query. That is the
    purpose of the <parseFormat> tag.
    Finally, you do not need to learn XML per se.
    The XML styles are covered, a little, in the docs starting at
    <cfchart>
    There is a handy tool, webcharts designer, that you can use
    to generate xml styles at:
    c:\CFusionMX7\charting\webcharts.bat
    The Webcharts user guide covers the available styles in more
    detail. You can download that here:

  • Help for conditional formatting of a chart query!!!!!

    Dear Gurus,
    can Anyone give me a step by step for conditional formatting on the chart?
    I want my charts in my queries to be for example:
    green color when actual data <= version,
    Yellow if actual > version & 101%, red if actual >=101%.
    Thank You very much for sharing your Knowledge.

    Hi Des,
    You can achieve this through exceptional reporting. Choose your query & execute the report. click on the 'Exceptions & Conditions' button. create the exception you wish to have by choosing version & your key figure, in your case. when you click 'Transfer' it automatically gets activated & you can be able to view the colors set by you.
