Graphing Issue

Hi, When outputting a key value, brackets are put around the key value to differentiate it from the text. Ex. [CC01] Company Code 01.
This is what you would get if you output the key and text. In my graph I'm only outputting a date and the bracket is showing around it. Of course 0DATE doesn't have any text so the date gets put out with a bracket around it. It looks really dumb in a chart. I'm sure there are lots of charts out there in 3.5 with dates as a category. They will all show brackets around them when they upgrade to 2004s.
Any idea how to chart a date without the brackets showing?
Thanks!

SAP has responded "Working as designed" although a better solution would to not display the brackets when only the characteristic value is output.

Report generation toolkit with excel 97 Graphing issue

I am trying to set-up mu data output to use the report generation Vis. However I am running into a problem when trying to update 2 graphs on the same sheet in Excel.
My set-up is:
Windows XP
Office 97
LabVIEW 7.1.1 with the Office toolkit installed
I noticed that I can write to the first Graph and update it without issues, but once I try to update the second I get error -41105 stating that MSGraph is not installed.
I did notice that if I set a break point between the Excel Quit Graph.vi and Excel Update Graph.vi if I click the mouse within excel in removes the highlight border from the first graph, the I continue and it works fine. For some reason LabVIEW is not releasing that Graph to be able to select another.
I tried to write data to a cell after quiting the graph and then selecting the second graph but that is not working either although it does work manually.
Next I may try a Macro but I would rather not have to do that.
Any suggestions?

Well after some debugging I found it. Apparently for Excel 97 only there is a problem that when you qiut MSGraph it may not save properly so the VI had the Quit Property removed.
I have added it into my code and it seems to work and will see how well it does and if I run into any problems.

3D graph issues in 8.6

I'm trying to program a simple 3D simulation in LabVIEW and am running into numerous issues with the 3D graphs.
1) An old program I had used the 3D ActiveX graph. When I load that VI, LV says it could not load the ActiveX control. I never intentionally uninstalled it. From the help I've found, it sounds like 8.6 should support the 3D ActiveX graph and the new Native (XControl) graph. Any ideas how it might have come unstuck on my computer, or how to retrieve it? It is also gone within LV 8.5 now too.
2) I can find very little help about the new Native 3D Graph. I found one example, which was amazingly incomplete. No instructions on the front panel. 3 graphs were generated on the diagram, but only one was connected to the indicator. Very odd.
3) I first placed the graph on a tab control and had very odd display issues. Someone had mentioned this type of problem recently (though I think they were referring to the ActiveX 3D Graph), so I moved it off the tab. However, it still has odd display issues. For example, often when the VI is not running, the graph control displays odd snippets of the Windows desktop - things that had been displayed on those pixels of the screen at some previous time. When the program is running, the graph flashes between what it should display and these bogus images.
4) I am using the create_plot_line VI to try to create two lines on my graph. As a sort of animation, I calculate increasing arrays of points and continuosly update the graph with more and more points, so the line (trajectory) grows. It seems like this is more like a "graph" than a "chart", so I should always create the plot with all the points that should be plotted, not just plot the one new point like you would with an old LabVIEW chart. And that sort of works. But if I leave the program running and restart the trajectory after it has already plotted it once, then a line appears from the end of the trajectory back to the beginning, as if it still has all the old points in some sort of memory and is adding new points, hence drawing a line from the last point from the first program iteration to the first point on the second iteration. So I'm a bit confused about how this type of graph is supposed to be used. Why are there no examples or instructions? (Or am I just missing them - e.g. not seeing them, or maybe they got erased from my system like the ActiveX graph did...)
Under the assumption that this graph is more like a picture control, where you add an element with one VI and pass the ref to another VI that adds another element, etc., I have tried wrapping the graph's main wire around in a shift register and only plotting the one new point. It doesn't really seem to work... The trajectory is there, but only when you rotate the 3D view.
5) I want the two trajectories to be different colors. Luckily there is a "color vector" input to the sub-vi that will probably do this. But I can find no documentation on it. You can't read this color vector with a property node, that I can find, so I can't get an example of the current color vector. I can see this color vector in the 3D Graph Properties page, but at that point, you can only change the colors of the over and under points, not the main color ramp. I tried specifying an array of color boxes, but didn't get reasonable results. I probably don't have the right number of elements. Interestingly, the Color Vector input is an array of reals! The context sensitive help for the sub-vi is useless. Isn't this documented somewhere?
Thanks for any help,

CW 3d graph Example here.
To set the color ramp you need to set the colors and the values and you need the same number of elements in each array. You will also have to set the ramp style you want to custom.
Also note colrs are "BGR" not "RGB".

3D bar graph: issues using 2D Y-Z plane and timestamp

Hi,
I'm having issues trying to plot a multiplot 3D bar graph using view towards Y-Z plane property (3D plot properties/View direction). This makes the 3D graph basically look like 2D. Bar graph looks quite ok when it is drawn without y vector (timestamp) but as soon as the timestamp is connected it doesn't make any sense. The bars are basically thin lines plotted to a very small area. Autoscaling or manual scaling doesn't help. Attached is a small example VI with some data which gives an idea what I'm trying to accomplish and what the issue is.
What I would like to achieve is to keep the bar width as in the case before y vector is connected to and have timestamps.
I'll be glad if you had any suggestions that could help.
Thanks,
Matti

Oooh. This is a bug for 3D Bar. The width and internal are not relative to the actual range. I filed CAR 344934.
If you could use 3D projection, you can use value pair (also from Properties or VI Server) as a temporary workaround. Value pair can override scale with any text. Here is an example.

Labview Graph Issues

I have fixed this issue in the past, but not with a filter on. When I run my VI the graph polts my data from right to left. How do I change it to plot from left to right? I have tried switching the array inputs to no avail. Any suggestions? I am fairly certain it is an easy fix, but with my limited LabVIEW knowledge I have run out of ideas for fixes. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!

Hi 913804
I am amazed you found the browser certification of OBIEE 11.1.1.6 I could not find it anywhere in the documentation nor from metalink personell.
Regarding the graphs not showing, we found this to be an issue with IE and not with Firefox. First make sure you have followed the upgrade step listed in
3.9.11.2 Updating Oracle Business Intelligence Catalogs from http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23943_01/doc.1111/e16793/patch_set_installer.htm#PATCH250. Then the last resort was to recreate the graph component in each report from scratch. As you say pie charts are unaffected.

Line graph issue in web report

Hi
I have a 3 queries/reports on one page in my web report. I have 3 line graph buttons, one for each query.
My issue is, in the report result or table, I have characteristic "Product" in rows and Key figures in Columns.
Product                          Month 1     Month2
XYZ          Demand
             On hand stock
             Ending Inventory
But when I hit the line graph button, it shows Product in the X (horizontal) axis and number ranges like 15000, 20000, 25000 in the Y axis.
I need to swap the axes. I tried the "swap display axis" in the web items tab, but it didn't work.
I read other threads on the same topic here and someone had suggested creating a query view, switching the columns and rows there and running the report to display the line graph as required.
If I do that, won't the report result in the table also swap the rows and columns? I want the table to show Product in the Rows and KFs in the column as it is now, but I want the line graph to show Product in the Y axis and the Key figures in the Y axis.
Any ideas on how to do that? Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Pooja

This is what I did:
1) In BEX Analyzer, I opened the local view of the Query and swapped the Key figures and Characteristics. I put the key figures in the columns and Characteristics in the Rows
2) I ran my report and save it as a View
3) In WAD, I assigned the Chart to the View.
When i ran the report from WAD, it still shows the key figures or number ranges in the Y axis and Characteristics on the X axis again.
I checked the "swap display axes" option in Web Item tab, but the line graph still remains the same.
Is there another way to do this? Or am I missing something?
Thanks
Pooja

Report Graph issue in OBIEE 11.1.1.6

Hi All,
Reports with graphs which were working in OBIEE 11.1.1.3 and OBIEE 11.1.1.5 are not working in OBIEE 11.1.1.6.
It displays only table views and in graph section it only displays prompt values without the graph.
I have tried these reports from line to bar and bar to line but did not work..Only worked if i go for a pie chart.
Most of the reports have failed bcoz of this issue in OBIEE 11.1.16?
Did anyone face this prob?
Is it a know bug?
Thanks

2d Flash Line Graph Issues

Hi,
I am editing the xml for the 2d flash line graph, and having difficulty performing some customisations.
Could anyone assist with the following:
1) Changing the default line colours. I have 4 series. Changing the following does not change the line colours:
<line_chart left_space="5" right_space="5">
<block_names enabled="no" />
          <dots radius="1"/>
          <lines size="1" auto_color="no" color="blue"></lines>
          <lines size="1" auto_color="no" color="red"></lines>
          <lines size="1" auto_color="no" color="green"></lines>
          <lines size="1" auto_color="no" color="pink"></lines>
</line_chart>
2) Is there any way to add commas (thousands) to the Y axis labels?
Many thanks for any assistance with these
Steve

Hi Ben,
Yes I was looking at that, but just discovered that I can do the following:
<values show="no" thousand_separator="," />
and it seems to do it.
I am now having REAL issues with the X and Y axis formatting. I am including font nodes inside the y_axis / x_axis nodes (as per anychart 3 docs) but the formating properties are not changing the axis labeling:

do you have any experience with doing this?
thanks again

XY Graph Issue

LabVIEW 12.0f3 Student Edition 32-bit
Windows 7 64-bit
I am trying to simultaneously write a 2D array to a spreadsheet file and plot the same array to an XY Graph. The data consist of pairs of random numbers, between 0 and 1, that I take to be coordinates. When these points are graphed, they are initially shown flattened against the horizontal axis. After some time (it varies depending on the number of points) these points miraculously orient themselves correctly. Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong? I have included my vi and a link to a video showing the problem.

Your code in gnereal is incredibly convoluted, and whatever you are doing with the reshaping and subsetting seems totally wrong. (create an indicator on the cluster going to the graph to see the actual values. They are not right!)
Here's what I would do instead (or similar).
Hint: start with NaN so the invalid data does not show.

Graph issue with "scale object to pane"

I have made a program that uses a mixed signal graph to show result on a screen. I have selected "scale object to pane". The program automatically goes to fullscreen when started.

I set the Yscale Maximum and Minimum in the program but 0 is still below the border. Anyone know a way to fix this?

BO Excel 2007 Upgrade- Help ..Graph Issues

Hi All,
I am wanting to troubleshoot some formatting challenges we are having and would like to add Excel 2007 as a download format to see if it cures my issue. Can I request somewhere or can we upgrade to 2007?
My challenge is that the chart formatting in BO is perfect but the excel file changes things like size, frequency of labels, etc. I am hoping because we dump in 2003 excel that somehow the compatibility is making those adjustments on its own. I can only test that theory if 2007 is available to BOu2026 make sense? Currently takes me about 25-30 minutes to adjust in excel where that could be a zero time. 

After upgrading the SAP Business One to 2007B version, When I looked into the user tables and user defined fields, all nvarchar fields got changed to nvarchar(max) from nvarchar(n). Why did it change so? How should I proceed in this?
System habit the nvarchar(max). Create keys (indexes cannot be defined over it).
In CR your should cast the User Defined fields as nvarchar with limited length for grouppin , summarize and parameters
(cast (U_TEXT as nvarchar(10)) as U_TEXT in your CR Query.

DVT: Graph - Issues with Automatic Sizing Inside PanelDashboard

Hello. To start off, here is the background information:
JDeveloper Version: Studio Edition Version 11.1.2.2.0, Build JDEVADF_11.1.2.2.0_GENERIC_120418.2212.6183.1
WebLogic Version: JDeveloper built-in version
Error messages received: None
We have developed a DashboardAPI for internal use at my company that is largely based off of the example provided on the ADF Demo page:
http://jdevadf.oracle.com/adf-richclient-demo/faces/visualDesigns/dashboard.jspx
We have also implemented the minimize and maximize functionality as it exists in the demo. However, in all of your dashboard panel boxes, we have a dvt:Graph component as the direct child. The inline style for all dvt:graphs is "width:100%; height:100%;". The actual flash component for the dvt:graph appears to be completely stretched when the page is first rendered. You can tell this by right clicking on the graph component and selected the Flash settings; by doing this, the entire flash component becomes "grayed out". This is where you can see this. Now if you minimize the graph to the dock bar, then restore it, the panel box comes back, but the dvt:Graph "rerenders", and stretches even further to completely fill out the entire panel box. I'm trying to figure out why it would behave like this. The only difference I see is that while restoring the panel boxes from the "dock", the code performs a prepareOptimizedEncodingOfInsertedChild(), instead of when the dashboard is initially created upon first load by creating the graph components programatically and adding them directly to dashboard.getChildren().
I have included two links to screenshots showing the before minimize and after minimize to illustrate what I mean:
Before: http://www.flickr.com/photos/60499750@N05/8534801846/
After: http://www.flickr.com/photos/60499750@N05/8534801824/
Does anyone have any idea why this would happen?
Thanks

No ideas on this one? Maybe just point me in the right direction, something I can debug or look at? Anything would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
