Default Colors Limit for Graph in OBIEE 11g

Hi, I'm using OBIEE 11g (11.1.1.6.6)
When I use a graph (either bar or pie), I notice that OBIEE only has 12 default colors to use in the graph. So it starts from blue, red, and so forth, until the 12th color, then for the 13th color it will use the same blue again, and so forth.
The problem is that my column values are more than 12 (it could be 20, it could be 30, etc). So, the repeating colors doesn't make any sense for the graphs.
Could somebody please advise me on how to increase the default number of default colors used by OBIEE (so that it will be like 50 default colors set automatically by OBIEE, just in case)?
Thanks so much!

Hi,
type HexaDecimal colors in google you will find n number of colors with the code number, just use this color codes by adding# before every code in the column format properties.
for ex: #ccc99
Follow this follwoing link

Setting HOMEPAGE for USERs, rolewise OBIEE 11g

Hi,
I have OBIEE 11g Dashboards on top of an Essbase cube. I would like to have a default homepage set per user role.
I have followed the below link: http://obieeelegant.blogspot.fi/2011/06/how-to-changing-theobiee11g-homepage.html , which suggests to have two tables in the database.
But how do I capture the User ids in this case. My security model has got Nested Groups and Nested Roles.
Any suggestion on how to proceed, please.

Unable to generate graph in OBIEE 11g

Hi All,
I have four columns in the report, one dimension and three fact columns
Dim.Col1
Fact.Col2
Fact.Col3
Fact.Col4
Fact.Col4 is nothing but I am dividing Col2 and Col3 like this, so in the formula for Fact.Col4, I have this
Fact.Col2/Fact.Col3
and these are the settings I have done for Fact.Col4
1. I have overridden the default data format from number to percentage
2. aggregation rule is default
3. have checked "Treat as an attribute column"
So My Fact.col4 has values like this
2.5%
4.5%
6.2%
Now when i am trying to built a graph using the columns dim.Col1 and fact.Col4, then the graph is not getting displayed. It shows me blank. But When I change the data format from percentage to default ( means uncheck the box) then graph comes up. So we can't create a graph on the column for which we have set the data format to percentage.? Can anybody please let me know what am I missing here
Thanks,
Ronny

Super! It worked. Graph comes back when I select the 1000's separator. But why would that happen? I mean It will be good If I know how did that make any difference. When I selected format to be percentage what is the significance of 1000 separator here? Is that a bug ? Or I am missing anything.
Thanks,
Ronny

Row limit in Dashboard Prompts - OBIEE 11g?

Hi,
In dashboard prompts values are shown as sets of 256 and I know it can be customizable but my question is..."Is there any limit on records to extract as we have it in Analysis"? If yes, what is the max limit and where to configure this?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Nagireddy, thanks for your reply.
Is there any limit of values to extract in Dashboard prompt? i.e. when you use drop down list as Dashboard prompt, is there any limit of values to extract from database?
In my local environment (instanceconfig.xml), there is limit of Rows to View and Download set to 20K, however I did not see anything related to the Dashboard Prompt.

Reset password for RPD in OBIEE 11G

Hi.
Is there a way to reset or bypass the password to open a RPD in offline mode ?
I'm using OBIEE 11.1.1.5 linux, and using the Administrator standalone client in windows.
Thanksx !!

To the best of my knowledge, there is no way to open the 11g RPD if you don't know the password. The password is basically the encyption key used to encrypt the RPD.
Once the RPD is opened, you can change the pwd from the File Menu

Issue making graphs in OBIEE 11g

Hi All,
I have requirement to make a line-bar graph in Answers.
metrics that i have to use are Best price, commit price and Close price
so the there would be a three bar showing data for all the the three metric. And there would be a line in the graph that should start from closed price, then go to Closed price + commit Price value and finally end at the value of summation of all three i.e. Commit+ closed+ best. So it would be a 3 bar and a trend line.
To implement that I have tried using union of 3 report and calculated the sum of the required trend line in the reports. So kind of output that i get is :
Closed price     |     Commit Price     |     Best Price     |     Cumulative total.
     1                              2                             3                         1                    (only closed amount)
     1                              2                             3                         3                    (Closed + Commit amount)
     1                              2                             3                         6                    (Closed + commit + Best amount)
so when i draw the Graph, i get the values of the bar correctly. But the value of line instead of coming as trend shows a dot on the graph with value as 1.
I am not really sure if the approach that i am taking is correct or not , so kindly request to please help me to make the trend line on the graph.

SA

Hi Everyone,
Can you guys suggest the steps to change the login logo for Publisher window?

Thanks
Arvnd

Hi Arvnd,
The logos for BI Publisher are not in the same location then Answers and Dashboards.(s_oracle, sk_oracle)
In your case the logo is:
OracleBI\oc4j_bi\j2ee\home\applications\xmlpserver\xmlpserver\xdo\images\oracle.gif
You can replace the image restart your application server and normaly you will see your new logo
