Disable gradient on flash bar chart?

It seems that the default flash bar chart has a gradient running right down the middle of the bar. Is there a way to turn this off, so that I have a solid color?
Thanks for the help.

If you are using Apex version 3, it uses Anychart version 3.
If you want to use the custom XML option on your chart you need to know the XML spec. If you look on the Anychart website, their documentation is for Anychart version 4 and will not work! Check out the version 3 documentation at;

Axes Settings in Flash Bar charts

Hi,
When I specify the Y-Axes settings for a Flash bar chart(application express 3.0), starting at 0(Y Min value), the bars appear with the correct height, the moment Y-Min is set to a non zero +ve value, the height of the bar gets skewed
For eg: a bar of height 0.5 starts at 0 and ends at 0.5 when the Y-min value is 0.
However, if I set the Axes to begin at 0.2, the height of the bar still remains 0.5, ending at 0.7 instead, where as the height of the bar should actually be only 0.3, starting at 0.2 and ending at 0.5
Has anyone faced a similar problem before ?
One simple work around would be to diminish all values by a certain factor(0.2 in the above example). But, still the behavior of the chart is incorrect.
Please let me know if there is any property I need to set in my style sheet to circumvent the problem.
Thanks,
Aswath

sowji,
In the time I was putting together this reply, it looks like you figured it out, but here goes:
1) In your query, divide the values by one million.
2) In your Chart Attributes, Axes Settings section, set the Postfix value to M (to indicate millions).
3) Also in the Axes Settings, adjust the Y Axis Min, Max, and Grid Spacing values. I think you must enter Min and Max values for the Grid Spacing to have an effect, but I don't know for sure.
Hope this helps,
Gregory

Building Flash Bar Chart

HI
I am building a flash bar chart which works, I load data from
a txt file.
When I load whole numbers, the chart works fine but when I
load a number like 7.5 it stays at 7 or
goes to 8.
I am using the flash time line as the reference on the bar
chart. My question is there a way to get the .2, .5 decimal spots
to match up correctly? how can I do this?
Thanks

Flash Bar Chart Customization

I am trying to get a flash bar chart that shows multiple bars on a single row. The X Axis is time, so basically I want to show that something happens from 10am until 12am, and then something else happens from 3pm until 5pm. But I want them both on the same row. They cannot be stacked, because there will always be gaps.
I looked in the Anychart documentation, and it appears that the attribute point_padding should address this problem, merely by giving it a value of -1 (because it is a percentage). But that has no impact. I tried adding it to the chart node, the block node, the set node, still nothing.
I am trying to do this with a 2D Horizontal Range chart.
My questions: Does Apex's chart plug-in not include some standard functionality from Anychart? Or is this perhaps an older version and is that attribute not supported? And is there anyplace where I can see what is included in the version Oracle distributes? Or failing that, does anyone have a better suggestion for how to do this?
Thanks in advance,
Michael

Y min value not working in horizontal Flash Bar Charts

Hello All,
Going crazy trying to work this one out.
I have a problem with a Flash Chart (APEX version 3.0.1.00.07)
The data mainly begins at 97 and goes to no more than 100, therefore I want the min to start at 96 so the results don't look to similiar. Why when I imput my minimum value, it does not work for Horizontal Flash charts ?
It seems to work for stack or vertical charts, can something be done via the "custom XML" ?

select option "Same day"

Hi Deb,
Both of your queries are using multi-series syntax i.e. returning more than one series of data, therefore your generated chart is actually generating 6 series rather than just the two that you're aiming for. You could try changing your queries to ensure they each generate a single series of information, which would then result in the extra Y-axis being applied to your "Series 2". Here's an example of what I mean:
Series 1:
select null link, label, value from (
select 'test' label, 1 value from dual
union all
select 'test2' label, 2 value from dual
union all
select 'test3' label, 3 value from dual
)Series 2:
select null link, label, value from (
select 'test' label, 100 value from dual
union all
select 'test2' label, 200 value from dual
union all
select 'test3' label, 300 value from dual
)I hope this helps.

Stacked bar chart order issue

I am definitely missing something here.
I have a stacked flash bar chart which displays 3 types of counts per year_month. I cannot get the bars in the correct order.
It's mostly correct except for 2 bonkers cases where it puts 2005_12 and 2006_01 to the right of
2011_01 . I cannot figure out what causes this. There is a peculiarity involving those 2 year_months in that every other
year_month had > 0 number of the first type of count except these 2 which solely had the second type of count.
But how this translates into an order issue I have no idea. The query orders the data by year_month.
Any ideas?
the last part of the query is:
select null LINK, (a.YEAR_MONTH) "LABEL", b.OVERNIGHTS,c.DAYTIMES,d.NAPS from
year_months a, myovernights b, mydaytimes c, mynaps d
where a.yearmonth < to_char(sysdate,'YYYYMM') and
a.year_month = b.year_month(+) and
a.year_month = c.year_month(+) and
a.year_month = d.year_month(+) order by a.YEAR_MONTH
year_months is a view with 2 fields:
year_month varchar2(7) (yyyy_mm)
yearmonth number(6) (yyyymm)
and contains all the year_months from our time 0 up to 2020.

yeah! I figured it out, based on reading this thread:
Anychart, show empty diagram ?
So stacking chart-ers, make sure to remember to use nvl in your query to return 0 instead of null!
select null LINK, (a.YEAR_MONTH) "LABEL", nvl(b.OVERNIGHTS,0),nvl(c.DAYTIMES,0),nvl(d.NAPS,0) from
year_months a, myovernights b, mydaytimes c, mynaps d
where a.yearmonth < to_char(sysdate,'YYYYMM') and a.year_month = b.year_month(+) and
a.year_month = c.year_month(+) and
a.year_month = d.year_month(+) order by a.YEARMONTH
duh, I knew it would be something elementary! Having said that though I don't think it should be the case that
the order departs from the order in the query. It would be better to change this behavior or at least warn people
that it happens.

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

Stacked Bar Chart Error

I have a 30+ series bar chart and the dates along the bottom are not showing in order...a sample of one of the series is as follows:
select null link, trunc(SAMPLE_TIME) label, SUM(EVENT_TIME) "CGS wait for IPC msg"
from "DART"."DART_TOP5_TIMED"
where event_name = 'CGS wait for IPC msg'
and instance_name = nvl (:P1_instance_name, instance_name) and sample_time>sysdate-30
group by trunc(SAMPLE_TIME)
order by trunc(SAMPLE_TIME)
Is there another line I need to add to ensure it goes in order?

Stacked bar chart x axis crunching up

Post Author: Pranab
CA Forum: Xcelsius and Live Office
I have purchased Crystal Xcelsius Workgroup 4.5. I have created a dashboard in which I have used webservices call to get data from database.
One of the three charts of my dashboard is a stacked bar chart. Now my problem is, when the webservice gets data and refresh the chart, the x-axis of it becomes squeezed and the main chart becomes very small. It becomes so in runtime. However in design mode i didnt notice such behavior.
But same flash file s showing fine when I am using it somewhere else.
I am facing big trouble, as I tried to search in web about this problem, but couldnt find such case.

Post Author: amr_foci
CA Forum: Xcelsius and Live Office
my friend,, its a bug,
(this happens when you make "ignore end blanks" for the chart)
i was mailing the business objects crystal xcelsius support team about that bug and they told me that its a bug and it may take months to be fixed,, we are waiting...

Bar chart and Line chart in a single chart??

Hello,
Was wondering if there is any way to create a bar chart and line chart in a single Flash or SVG chart? If not, are there any plans to introduce such a chart type in the future releases?
Regards,
Dev

Dev,
I don't think you can do that using standard Flash or SVG. However, you can do this
using my XML Chart Package
http://htmldb.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=31517:58
and the instructions given on
http://www.maani.us/xml_charts/index.php?menu=Gallery&submenu=Composite
You can modify the package to do that for you.

How to display bar charts in jsp

I need bar charts for web application.
I search alot but I didn't find any solution.
From where I can find the content for same?

You're right I did read about Cewolf. Here's how
You can simply define a chart by including a chart tag into your JSP like this:
<cewolf:chart
id="XYChart"
type="xy"
title="XYChart"
<cewolf:gradient>
<cewolf:point x="0" y="0" color="#FFFFFF"/>
<cewolf:point x="0" y="300" color="#C8C8C8"/>
</cewolf:gradient>
<cewolf:data>
<cewolf:producer id="xyData"/>
</cewolf:data>
</cewolf:chart>
<cewolf:img chartid="XYChart" renderer="cewolf" width="400" height="300"/>
keep coding..
Ciao.

Category labels fail to update in column and bar charts

I originally posted this comment in another thread (Re: Category labels fail to update). I thought I should repost it, as the issue still exists after installing SP1 Fix Pack 2 (version 5.1.2.0), and it wasn't clear from the previous thread that the problem had been logged.
If you have a bar chart or stacked bar chart, the category labels do not update with the underlying data when you have the "Horizonal (Value) Axis Labels" box unchecked. Same effect with a column chart if the "Vertical (Value) Axis Labels" box is unchecked.
I'm getting around the problem in the meantime by keeping the box checked but changing the font size to zero, which reduces the labels to small dashes, and then using a font colour that matches the background as much as possible.
... by the way, another issue I see in this same area is that although there are separate checkboxes in charts for choosing whether to display titles and subtitles, it is not possible to select just titles - both checkboxes appear to be locked together.
- Peter

Hi Tammy,
I didn't regard #2 as bug - in fact I thought it was helpful to be able to set the size to zero as a workaround to the problem outlined in #1.
Regarding #3, if this is by design, then I'd suggest that it's a poor design choice to have checkboxes next to both titles and subtitles, since this implies that they should be able to be separately controlled.
Something else I've noticed with this formatting area is that the position and offset controls are disabled, and there doesn't appear to be any way to use them. It would be very helpful to be able to use these to move the position of chart titles. In a dashboard I'm currently building, we have a large stack of charts sized very small, to attempt to resemble the 'sparkline' concept. But the chart titles are so high, it's not clear which chart they refer to (they look like they might refer to the chart above it). As a result, I've had to remove the chart titles and place independent labels over top of each chart to be able to position them closer to the chart's display area.

Stacked Bar Chart - SVG

Hi,
My department is conducting a series of SWOT sessions. Each item submitted during the sessions is given a category (such as Project Management), a quadrant (such as Strength), and a participant (such as Staff). I'm trying to display a stacked bar chart that will show the amount of items per quadrant for each category.
I ran into, what looks like, the common bug with null values being returned. I tried to fix this using the query below. I use the same query below for 4 series (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats) and hardcode the quadrant name accordingly (is that correct?). If only one series exists, the graph works fine. If more than one exists, the graph does not display (no error is given, it simply does not display). Does anybody have any insight? Am I taking the wrong approach with my query?
select null link, c.category_name label, nvl(count(i.item_name),0) value
from swot_item i, swot_category c, swot_quadrant q
where i.item_category = c.category_id
and i.item_quadrant = q.quadrant_id
and q.quadrant_name = 'STRENGTH'
AND (instr(':'||:P1_CATEGORY_LIST||':',':'||i.item_category||':') > 0 OR TO_CHAR(:P1_CATEGORY_LIST) = 'ALL')
AND (instr(':'||:P1_PARTICIPANT_LIST||':',':'||i.item_session||':') > 0 OR TO_CHAR(:P1_PARTICIPANT_LIST) = 'ALL')
group by c.category_name
union all
select null link, c.category_name label, 0 value
from swot_category c where c.category_name not in (select c.category_name
from swot_item i, swot_category c, swot_quadrant q
where i.item_category = c.category_id
and i.item_quadrant = q.quadrant_id
and q.quadrant_name = 'STRENGTH'
AND (instr(':'||:P1_CATEGORY_LIST||':',':'||i.item_category||':') > 0 OR TO_CHAR(:P1_CATEGORY_LIST) = 'ALL')
AND (instr(':'||:P1_PARTICIPANT_LIST||':',':'||i.item_session||':') > 0 OR TO_CHAR(:P1_PARTICIPANT_LIST) = 'ALL')
group by c.category_name
Thanks,
Brian

Brian,
Which version of APEX are you using? In 3.0, you can use a Flash chart, which supports a single query for all 4 series like this:
select null link, c.category_name label,
       sum(decode(q.quadrant_name,'STRENGTH',1,0)) "Strengths",
       sum(decode(q.quadrant_name,'WEAKNESS',1,0)) "Weaknesses",
       sum(decode(q.quadrant_name,'OPPORTUNITY',1,0)) "Opportunities",
       sum(decode(q.quadrant_name,'THREAT',1,0)) "Threats"
from swot_item i, swot_category c, swot_quadrant q
where i.item_category = c.category_id
and i.item_quadrant = q.quadrant_id
AND (instr(':'||:P1_CATEGORY_LIST||':',':'||i.item_category||':') > 0 OR TO_CHAR(:P1_CATEGORY_LIST) = 'ALL')
AND (instr(':'||:P1_PARTICIPANT_LIST||':',':'||i.item_session||':') > 0 OR TO_CHAR(:P1_PARTICIPANT_LIST) = 'ALL')
group by c.category_name- Marco

Dynamically Growing Bar Chart

Can a bar chart grow dynamically?
I have a report that can have hundreds of items on its bar chart. I made the chart horizontal so they would presumably all show. Crystal displays it in the amount of space I have given it and only displays the text for as many items at it thinkks it can fit comfortably
So I get a chart that looks like
Item 1         |----
                  |----
Item 13       |---
                  |---
Item 37       |---
I would like to have a chart that would display the text of all of the items and grow down the page so if I happen to have 128 items the chart will be a lot longer than it will be if I have 30 items.
Is this possible?
Thanks,
Dick

hi Dick,
Right Click the Chart,
Format Chart -> Can Grow (Option is Grayed out/Disabled)
From the above, Chart can't grow dynamically based on data in CR.
If you want all labels to appear,
Chart Expert -> Axes ->Number of Divisions -> manual :1
But when data is more, these labels appear very smaller.
Also, you can fix the size of chart based on estimated data before hand.

Vamsee

Getting rid of Markers in Flash Line charts

Hi,
I am trying to use Flash Line charts for plotting a few time series graphs. I wish to get rid of the markers and have only the lines.
Is there any property I need to set to get rid of these markers. I tried "Marker Size=0" in the <line> setting. but doesn't seem to work.
Any suggestions ?
Thanks,
