Fixed Line in Bar Chart

Hi,
I have a Chart that shows monthly values. Now, I would like to add a fixed line that shows the average of all values.
How can I do that?
Thanks, Johannes

Hello Johannes!
Please have a look into Kai Gutenkunst's blog: [/people/kai.gutenkunst/blog/2008/10/22/bi-chart-item-modifying-chart-settings-at-runtime|/people/kai.gutenkunst/blog/2008/10/22/bi-chart-item-modifying-chart-settings-at-runtime].
There is only one disadvantage: you need BI 7.01 (EhP1).
By default, you can only add a second line with a fix value.
Yours,
   Tobias

  • How to plot line and bar chart in one graph

    i have one graph, but in this graph i want to plot line or bar chart using radio button selection.
    can i do that...

    You must have 2 data arrays or plots to get this. Make sure your plot legend is visible. Drag the plot legend vertical borders to view both plots. Select one of the plot to be bar plot (See the attachment)

  • How to draw a straight  dotted line on Bar chart at 70%?

    Hi
    Could you please let me know how to draw a straight dotted line on BAR CHART at 70%?
    Thank you

    Hi,
    This may vary depending on what version of crystal you are using.
    Right click on the graph & go to 'chart options' & choose 'Grids'
    In the grids pane go to the grids tab.  From there check the 'draw custom line at' and specify where you want to draw the custom line.
    Once the line is drawn highlight the line, right click and go to 'chart options' & 'selected item'.
    select what format you want the line to look like (choose the dashed one).
    good luck!

  • Seek 2D Line and Bar Chart Graphs HOWTO

    Can anyone share with me on where I could obtain/teach
    me how to write 2D Line and Bar Chart Graphs ?
    I like the class/program to be called from java code and not
    from command prompt to plot points or bar graphs.
    Please, no vendor recommendations.
    I dont have the $ to purchase.
    Any help is appreciated.
    Thanks

    I checked the web site of JFreeChart and its document
    says to get premium service, it requires $.
    I dont really have the $ to purchase that software.
    It's a vendor product!Just to clarify, JFreeChart is free software, it is licensed under the GNU LGPL. You get the complete source code, including lots of demos, Javadoc HTML pages, an install document in PDF format, and access to the support forum for absolutely no charge. You don't have to pay a fee to unlock special features in the software, everything is there in the free download.
    As a way of funding the project, we sell a JFreeChart Developer Guide which includes a lot more information about using JFreeChart. But it is only the documentation we sell, not the software.
    Hope that helps,

  • Wavy lines in bar charts after converting a Powerpoint to a pdf?

    After converting a Powerpoint file to a pdf, the bar charts have wavy lines.  The one thing I noticed is that the problem appeared when creating the pdf with Notes showing.  If Notes are turned off, then the bars are fine.
    Is there a solution for this?

    Version is Office 2007.
    OS is Windows 7.
    Viewer - I think it is Acrobat 9 Pro.
    When printing, the option to print notes is chosen.  If the option is just slides, the bars in the charts are normal.
    To create a PDF, the Powerpoint file is open --> then go to Print --> in the Print dialog box, change the printer name to Adobe PDF and print.

  • Draw a Horizontal target line on bar chart

    I am trying to reach out to crystal report gurus for the following problem, I am relatively new with crystal reports and would really appreciate if you could provide a solution or point me in the rite direction.
    I am working on a project which requires to show various charts on an .aspx page. (.net 2.0).  I am using CR10.2.36, the one that comes with VS2005.
    My problem is I need to add a target line on a bar chart, e.g.
    I have (Y)years and (X)Examscores, I need to put a line (target line) on the Exam Scores.
        100%   |
    (X)Score  |
       45%
    _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _   (this is the target line I need to have)
                   |
            0%  |__________________________
                    2001          2002           2003
    now this target line should move up or down on click of a button or a .net slider control (which would be somewhere on the page).
    So I guess I need to add the target line to the bar chart programmatically after the chart loads.
    I am able to load the chart correctly but I am not able to think of a way to add the target line and there seems to be not a lot of help out there.
    I appreciate your time and help
    Thanks

  • Want to put horizontal lines on bar chart.

    I want to put horizontal lines across groups of bars in a bar chart depending on the mean or median. So every group of bars in a bar chart will have a line across them and their position will depend on the values of mean or median. 
    Thanks

    I really don't know. I don't have LV open in front of me. Look at the examples (Help>>Find Examples). Read the help. Play with it yourself - create a small VI with a chart and a loop and see what happens when you bundle values or build arrays.

  • More than one line on bar chart

    I am creating a Line chart from a table.  The table includes a code column, date column, and several statistic columns. The dates are end of month dates only. There are about 10 different codes for each month.  The statisic columns are the totals for the month for each code.
    PeriodEndDate  Code  Statistic1 Statistic2 Statistic3 Statistic4
    XX/XX/XXXX     XX      999        999        999        999
    On my line chart I want to show one or more statistics for one year for a given code. (A line for each statistic)
    On a different report I want to show one or more codes for one year for a given statistic.  (A line for each code)
    The report has parameters for the code and the statistic. I have figured out how to create the chart for one code for one year for a given statistic.  Can any one help me out?
    Thanks,
    Fred

    Hello Fred,
    If you work with a multi-value parameter you could pass in a collection of x of 10 of your codes. I assume you have played with this idea?
    Perhaps you are stuck because there are no design-time options in the chart design wizards to base your line chart off the numerous values that could be passed into a single multi-value "code" parameter?
    If it is a limitation of the chart design options available to you then your only recourse may be to use one of the SDKs to massage data into a datatable which could be pushed to a report on the fly.

  • Can we fix the Y axis in Bar chart ?

    Hi All,
    I have a bar chart in which the width of X axis is dynamic because i am using many months data.
    But wen i am doing preview,my chart area is moving towards left.
    Can  we fix the y axis ,I mean the area of chart should not move.Only X axis can be stretched according to the number of months we have in x axis ?
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards
    msbilearning

    Hi msbilearning,
    According to your description, you want to have your Y-axis fixed in the bar chart area and the X-axis grows from from left to Right. Is my understanding correct?
    In Reporintg Services, when creating a chart, we can set the DynamicWidth of the chart which can make our chart expands dynamically with the numbers of categories.  In this scenario, we also need to ennable the CustomPosition of chart, set a specific
    value for top and left properties so that the Y-axis will be fixed. For detail steps, please see the two blogs below:
    Charts with Dynamic Height or Width based on Categories/Data
    Handling Dynamic Height and Width in an SSRS Bar Chart
    If you have any question, please feel free to ask.

  • Bex Analyser: Bar chart with limit or average line, is it possible?

    Hi everyone.
    I have a short question:
    Do you know if it is possible to combine different chart types in the Bex Analyser?
    I would like to have a bar chart providing monthly values and in the same chart a line showing 1) a fixed limit and 2) another line showing an accumulated moving average.
    I have the values as source available, however I can't figure out how to combine the bar charts with a line chart in the same graph.
    Does anybody know if this is possible?
    Thanks,
    Nana

    Nana ,
    it is possible to have a Bex Chart of mixed type , you can choose the type of display for each series
    As for fixed line - you will need to have the values supplied by query
    As for moving average , that too needs to come from the query. The IGS service which renders the chart is something similar to Excel - the display options can be changed but nothing more that what is in the data table.

  • Is it possible to display fixed lines in the candlestick chart ?

    Hi,
    I have a nice candlestick flash chart using AnyChart integration kit.
    I would like to display 3 lines in this chart, they are as follow and they return one value each :

    Hello, Jacky, thanks a lot for your answer.
    This is not exactly what I was thinking about:
    I want that the planners can be informed in the BPS planning layout about about e.g. the date when material is available again.
    There should be a text saying: "Material xyz is not available until Oct 1st, 2008"
    Additionally, the user should have the opportunity to give comments on their planning data.
    Any idea?
    Thanks and best regards

  • Bar Chart- How to center graph lines

    I am very new to Xcelsuis and am fighting with someing that is easy to most, but driving me crazy.
    I have a Label Bar that poplulates a list box and when I click on an item in the list box the correct information appears on the bar chart.  The problem is that is is all pushed to the bottom of the graph.  I need it to space accordingly in the center of the graph. 
    Please know that I can have anywhere from 1 bar chart line or 40.
    Thanks in advance for your assistance.

  • How to draw cumulative line graph over the stacked bar chart?(SSRS)

    Hello, 
    I need your help to draw a cumulative line graph over this bar chart. 
    I need your help to draw a cumulative line graph over this bar chart in SSRS.
    The dimension (Category Group) is "Hour" in this case. and expression is sum of two distinct values like 'Y' and 'N' in Activity column(Series Groups). The sum(Activity=Y) in green color and sum(Activity='N') in Red color.
    I require to draw a cumulative line graph in this same chart, that should give the result of cumulative Sum(Activity) for each hour?? I mean sum of (Y+N) for each hour and that should be cumulative over the hour.
    I mean sum of (Y+N) for each hour and that should be cumulative over the hour.

  • Horizontal Bar Chart and Overlaying Line Chart

    I am using SSRS 2008 and developing my reports in BIDS.
    I have a report with two data points. I want to chart the first as a bar (horizontal) chart and then the second as an overlaying line chart.
    I created both data series, originally, as a bar chart. I have clicked on the second series in the "Drop Data Fields Here" area and changed the chart to a line chart. When I do that, it changes both series to a line chart.
    However, if I use the column (vertical) chart for the first series, it will let me make the second one a line chart.
    Is this a limitation of SSRS 2008? Can I not have one data point be the horizontal bar chart and the second one a line chart?
    If so, are there any suggestions how to get around this?
    Thanks.

    Both charts for SSRS 2005/2008 are very limited when it comes to horizontal charts and are infact supporting only left-to-right bar charts, with no ability to combine them with other charting types (lines, areas, points etc.). For a SSRS charting solution that supports all types of charting type combinations in left-to-right and right-to-left horizontal fashion you can use Nevron Chart for SSRS - www.nevron.com. Besides a huge number of charting types and subtypes (most of which are not available in the MS Chart for SSRS 2008) it also provides better image quality in 2D and 3D modes, more settings, has support for rich text formatting in texts, has image filters, ability to customize via C# code and implements many more large and small charting related details.
