Format axes in chart components

I want my y-axis to start from some arbitrary -ve number i.e shift the origin to an arbitrary number so that the charts start from there. Is it possible to do that?

Emm tried that. Sorry but doesn't help. But I've uploaded the images from XCelsius and excel to illustrate the problem. In excel it is possible to shift the axis as shown but in XCelsius I couldn't find it.

I want the same display as in excel i.e starting at -3 in this case.

Using flex 2.0 charting components with flex 3

I purchased and installed a flex 2 charting components
library so i could use it in my AIR application development. It
installed alongside the 3.0 beta visualization components so that I
now have two copies of each component in my charts folder. I can't
see how to ensure that the right library is used so that the charts
actually appear when i run my app. I'd hate to think i just threw
away $300 so any help would be greatly appreciated - .

Are you using Flex Builder 3? Flex 3.0 beta Data
visualization components are available as part of FB 3 only. You
can select either 2.0.1 hotfix 3 charts (consists of only
charts.swc) or 3.0.0 data visualization (consists of
datavisualization.swc). through multiple sdks feature of FB3. For
flex 3 beta, flex 2 charting key will work. so if you want to try
out new features in charts and new components like Advanced data
grid you can switch to 3.0.0 sdk and use same flex 2 charting key
to remove watermark from charts.

Format Changes In Chart Anlyzer Not Saved

Post Author: Ray Brack
CA Forum: Charts and Graphs
I have created a vertical bar chart in CR v8.5 and have made several formatting changes using Chart Analyzer, changed the height of the graph, fonts, font rotation, etc. However after saving the changes and previewing the report most of the changes are lost. Furthermore those changes that did stick are limited to a single graph, the remaining graphs within the group retain the original settings.
Does anyone have a solution to this problem or is charting in CR v8.5 as flaky as it seems?
Thanks in advance...

In case anyone else comes across this problem:
1) After making the changes right-click the chart in Analyzer and select "Apply changes to all charts"
2) Right-click the chart again and select "Save as template"

Chart Components : Option to select a item for drill down by Label name

Hi
Currently for all Chart components in Xcelsius in Drill down mode we do not have the option to insert the X Axis Label values by selecting the Label on the X- Axis. It is made mandatory that we should click on any of the Series and that too we get only Position or Value but not Label.
Why should some one necessarily click on a particular series to drill down. Why cant he drill down by just clicking on x axis label. This seems to be a general requirement but I did not find this option. Am I missing something?
I want to check whether if we will do have the option to select the label name by just clicking on the X-axis labels.
Please note: I know the other alternatives of getting the label by enabling a series and inserting the position and using some label based menu to derive the Label.
Regards
Gangadhar

hi
then do like this
dont use drill down option for that.
take push buttons and one combo box.
place those pushbuttons into X-Axis Labels and transparent them.
combobox is used for dynamic Data Retrival.
in ComboBox Component behavior properties you have option Selected Item(Type and Item) in that item should be map to Pushbutton Destination cell.
you will get data as per your Requirement(Like you can drill down from X-axis Labels).

Burrito mobile project charting components

I have a problem when trying to use the charting components in a Flex Hero mobile project with Flash Builder Burrito.
The release notes(http://labs.adobe.com/wiki/index.php/Flex_SDK_Hero) of Flex Hero state that the charting components aren't included in a mobile project by default, but that you can add the swc's manually.
So I created a new "Flex Mobile Project" in Burrito and added the charting swc's (datavisualization.swc and mx.swc) to the project. But when I try to use the Barchart component or any other chart component I get errors in my Flex application because it cannot resolve the component.
I have a feeling this problem has something to do with the com.adobe.flexide.project.multiplatform.multiplatformnature used in the .project file in a mobile project, but I'm not 100% sure.
Anyone else having this problem and is there any way to resolve this problem?

ok, so here's another problem with charting in a mobile project... if I'm not mistaken there's a problem with the mobile skin.
Although this renders (if you have the datavisualisation.swc and mx.swc and sparkskins.swc in your libs folder) you will not see any text on the axis or in the tooltips.   Does anybody have an explanation and solution? I'm not understand how the skinning is put together in spark :

Charting components for actionscript project

hi -
I have an actionscript project going (ie, not flex) and I want to use some kind of charting components
I'm complining as desktop appilication, ie, I am running on the AIR platform
because it's an actionscript-only project I dont think I can use any of the mx.* classes -- is this true? would be good to confirm that
given that, I think my only option is to find a third-part charting package that's AS3-only
any suggestions?
thanks

Tried compiling it using the FlexBuilder IDE? There's nothing
wrong with your code, so it sounds like your compiler doesn't know
where to find the libraries, or is looking in the wrong place. Are
you giving an explicit library-path argument?

Formatting of Radar chart

Hello,
I am creating a web application with a Radar chart.
However, I am having serious problems with the formatting of the chart.
There are a lot of properties that you can set in order to format the layout of the radar chart.
However, changes to a lot of properties are not shown in the chart itself. So when I change such a property, the corresponding change is not shown in the graph.
Examples of these properties are:
Naming of the series is not shown in the legenda of the chart.
Changes to the properties of a serie is not shown in the chart. For example, when I make the line thicker this is not shown, when I change the color this is not shown, when I want to fill the area and make the area transparent this is not shown in the graph.
Anybody experiencing the same problems?
Maybe a solution for this???
Thanks again!

I cant find the runtime menu file. Maybe I explained my problem incorrectly. I am not using a runtime menu, I am using a menu ring. . .if there is any difference. I am attaching an example of what I suspect is causing the problem in my program. If you still think I need to include the runtime menu file, can you tell me where I can find it?

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.

How to use custom function for formatting the Line Chart Axes?

Hi...
I'm using a Line chart who's y axis value range from 0 to 50000. This is a number which it gets from it's dataProvider. I want to format this and show it as
$50,000
$40,000

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!

Conditional formatting in the chart does not work after 10g to 11g upgrade

W e have upgraded from 10g to 11.1.1.6.8 recently. For all the reports conditional formatting for charts is not working for us which used to work in 10g.
While researching , i have found that advanced xml needs to be modified. So i changed xml where there is 'untypedLiteral' to 'decimal' and saved the report. Inspite of saving , xml wouldnt change . It still shows as untypedLiteral.
I also tried to delete the conditional format and recreate again. But still it wouldn't work.
Please advise.

Series Implementation in chart components

Hi Everybody,
I want to design a custom line chart component for xcelsius. Unfortunately I could not add series to my chart component as it implemented in xcelsius line chart. I am new to xcelsius and I am not getting idea, when I will modify a property in component, how it will reflect in the property sheet. I don't know how the series part works in xcelsius components and each series holds its respective data.
Please help me.
Thanks.

Let me explain you with a simple example:
Data:
         Product 1, Product 2
2007, 10          , 20
2008, 30          , 50
2009, 40          , 60
Drag and drop line chart on canvas, and go to properties of the chart.
Select radio button By Series and click +
Name: Product 1
Values(Y): select the cells under product 1 i.e. 10, 30 and 40
Category Labels(X): Select cells that contains year i.e. 2007, 2008, 2009
Click + to add another series
Name: Product 2
Values(Y): select the cells under product 1 i.e. 20, 50 and 60
That's it...save and preview...you will understand how the series in this chart works.

Format Dates in Chart to List Months not Days?

I have a CF Report that I has a Subform Chart with the
following SQL:
SELECT ticketDate, Count(tickets.ticketDate) as CountTickets
FROM tickets
WHERE (ticketType LIKE 'TS%')
GROUP BY ticketDate;
On my Line Chart, I have the Dates going across the bottom
from L to R.
How do adjust my SQL above so it combines the Dates to list
in months instead of each day?
And format them to Jan-07, Feb-07, Mar-07, etc..?
ps: Here is a link to a sample image of my Report:
