How to quickly select data point symbol?

hi, take line chart for example. sometimes there are a lot of series data in one chart and it often happens that one series partly covers another. In such case it is not easy to click the symbol which I want to modify color.
Is there any keyboard shortcut to achieve this or does anyone know any tips?
thank you.

Setting the Numbers View zoom to 400% can help to separate the lines and points. Beware that at that high zoom level, it may still take some patience to select the correct series, but it's easier than if they are all on top of one another. Another way is to temporarily modify one of the datapoints in the series you wish to select so that it stands away from the rest. After you have made the change, you can restore the correct data.

Line charts: data point symbol resize?

I'm working with charts in Pages and would like to be able to have a greater variety of lines in my line chart. In addition to selecting the data point symbol (square, circle, etc), I wish I could resize that symbol. I know I can resize the line width from the Graphic tab of the Inspector.
Is there a way to shrink the data point symbol from the Inspector? From anywhere?

If I understand your question, this from the Pages online help may give the answer:
To mark line, area, and scatter charts with data point symbols:
Select the entire chart. You can also select the chart series (the line or area shape) that you want to mark with data point symbols.
Click Inspector in the toolbar, and then click the Chart Inspector button.
Click Series (except for scatter charts).
Choose a symbol from the Data Point Symbol pop-up menu.
Choose one of the following options from the Symbol Fill pop-up menu:
To fill the symbol with the same color as its outline, choose Use Stroke Color.
To fill the symbol with a solid color, choose Color Fill, click the Fill color well, and pick a color.
To fill the symbol with a gradient, choose Gradient Fill and use the gradient controls to set the colors and change the angle of the gradient.
To fill the symbol with an image, choose Image Fill and select the image you want. You can also resize the image by choosing an option from the pop-up menu above the Choose button.
To fill the symbol with a tinted image, choose Tinted Image Fill and select the image you want. Click the color well to the right of the Choose button to change the tint color. You can also resize the image by choosing an option from the pop-up menu above the Choose button.

Data Point Symbol in Line Graph - can you change the size?

I would like to change the Data Point Symbols in line graphs - if not the actual symbol it would be wonderful to be able to change the size of the symbols provided.
At present, if there is a lot of data in the graph, the symbols are too big and crowd one another.
I know that one can reduce the line size but that doesn't change the symbol size.
Help please.

How to delete selective data in a cube

Hi all,
Can any one tell me, how to delete selective data in a cube. For example if i want to delete data corresponding particular Matrial Id or particular Customer ID (say C400) ? And even deleting the data based on particular Request numer.?
Sandy.

Hi,
RSMO > Infocube > Manage > contents tab > selective deletion
Then define your selections for deletions (Matrial Id or particular Customer ID (say C400)).
Request based deletions can be done directly from Request tab.
Thanks,

How's to select data from structure data object?

Dear Guru,
If my data is kept in structure data object (not a table type). How can I select data from that kind of data object. Thank you.
Cheers,

Hi,
Data cannot be stored in structure.
Structure is just like a view , so its a medium with which you can create a view relevant to your needs.
The fields that we need together , we put in a structure.
Structure is a medium where we collect all our relevant fields.
we can include the structure in internal table so that we can actually store data , process data and retrieve data.
hope this helps.
thanx,

How to remove noisy data points read from a text file

Reading data measurements taken in from a txt file. How do I get rid of noise aside from going into the text file and deciding point by point what to delete.

Well going in point by point and deleting is certainly one way of going about it. Of course that would defeat the entire purpose of having this great programming enviroment that is capable of doing that kind of thing for us.
Is your text file small enough to upload? Obviously you know what the criteria are for judging whether or not a data point is acceptable so it should be simple enough to program. Give us a bit more information and I can assure you there will be a race between LabVIEW experts to see who can post the cleanest, simplest, and fastest piece of code that will do what you need. My wager is on altenbach, but there are a few others here that are almost as impressive.

How to delete the Data Points label with a crosstab layout

Hi, just a question.
I created a report which uses a crosstab layout; so...I have the Company Name on the left, Status Code above and the Count(tickets) as Data Points.
As soon as I put the Count(tickets) inside the report, the label "Data Points: Incident Id Count appears above just at the bottom of the Status Code
Is there a way to avoid this tedious label ?
As workaround, I changed the Data Points' format heading (text and background) in such a way to see only a Grey space...but this is not so useful (from the customer side...)
I also looked for inside the crosstab layout properties...but I didn't found nothing.....
Any help will be appreciate
Alex

Well, I think you are out of luck. You are basically saying you want to control when you have a column heading and when you don't want to have a column heading. Most of us users do want column headings in our reports. In fact I have a hard time trying to figure out why you don't want a column heading. How are the report users going to know what the numbers in the column mean if you don't have a heading on the column? Maybe the initial users of the report know, but what happens when they leave and someone else takes over their duties? I would suggest putting in an enhancement request for Discoverer to give you the option to not display a column heading, if you really want something like this. This needs to be at the workbook level, I am thinking.

How to get selected data in AdvancedDataGrid

I have an advanced data grid with selection mode set to multiple rows. I need to highlight the selected rows differently based on certain criteria on the row data. For that I define my own selectionIndicatorFunction. The question is: how do I know the current selected data in the function? I tried to use the selectedItem field, however it is NULL; field selectedCells give all the selected rows, not the latest selected row.
Can anybody enlighten me how can I get the most recent selected row data? I'm using flex 4.5. Thanks in advance.

Now in the Servlet we can get the same bean by this code:
PageContext pageContext = JspFactoryImpl.getDefaultFactory().getPageContext(this, request, response, null, true, 8192, true);
UserBean userbean = (UserBean)pageContext.getAttribute("userbean", PageContext.SESSION_SCOPE);
String userid = userbean.getUsername();
For this code to work it is needed to import 2 files:
import org.apache.jasper.runtime.JspFactoryImpl;
import javax.servlet.jsp.PageContext;
The JspFactoryImpl is in jasper-runtime.jar file provided in tomcat dir.It seems to me that you are exactly knowing what you are doing :-(
You can get a Bean stored in a Session by
request.getSession().getAttribute("userbean");
In the login.jsp page for example we have the code
<jsp:useBean id="userbean" scope="session"class="com.newproj.UserBean" />
<jsp:setProperty name="userbean" property="*" />the jsp:setProperty is not called when you click on the submit button
if fills the bean with the request values from the previous request.

How to save one data point at every 10th cycle?

Hello,
I am using LabVIEW 5.1 and PCI-6023E. In my application, I need to detect peak values from a load cell and save the one data point that detected at every 10th cycle. Do you know any ideal way to do this? Mine always save data values the whole time that the condition is true which is about 26 values; not one value as I want. Any help would be greatly appriciated.
Hao

Hello Justin,
Thank you very much for helping me out. I did not state my question clearer last time. Actually, the cycle here is the number of life cycle of a valve that being tested; therefore, the iterator i can be any number when the valve's life cycle reaches its 1st, 11th, 21st....cycles. Do you know any other way to do this?
Thank you in advance
Hao

How to acquire 1 data point per trigger ?

Dear all, anyone can help me in acquiring 1 data point per trigger? just as a Sample/hold circuit?
I changed the example from Labview "Acquire 1 point digital trig", however, it doesn't work, it says data acquiring is inconsistent with buffer. The program is attached.
and I try to use "AI Sample channels.vi", but there is not trigger input and sampling rate input.
Thank you very much for your help.

Acquire1PointTrig.vi ‏81 KB

There is a good example that can do almost exactly what you want to do. It is called Acq&Graph Voltage - Int Clk - HW Trig Restarts.vi. There are only three things you need to change. Change the triggering VI to trigger off of a digital signal, then change the read VI to read a single channel and single sample and finally, change the Samples per Channel to 2. I have included screenshots of the VI.
The VI works by setting up a digital start trigger that is retriggerable, so that you can have this trigger start the acquisition over and over. Once the trigger happens, a sample is acquired, read, and then the hardware waits for another trigger.
Have a great day,
Brian

I really need help.thanks in advance. It is better to attach the program.my labview is 2009
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi,
You can do it with a table control as well. Check out the attached VI. To delete a row, Run the VI, just right click the row and click "Delete Row". To get back the default values, click reinitialize.

How do you select data from tables not in the Properties table list?

Hi I am new to SAP B1.
I am amending the production order and wish to add fields from the Bill of Materials table Itt1. However this table is not in the list of tables for this report.
1. Do I have to redo the whole report in Crystal or is there a way of using the PLD report?
2. This table join needs to have 2 fields in the join the father and the child item codes. How many joins can the PLD report look after? I assume that Relate to is the first join and next segment is a second join. Am I right or not as I have been unable to find any reasonable documentation on creating and maintaining PLD reports.
3. Where can I find information if any on System Variables and what data they represent?
Thanks
Chris

Hi Cris,
welcome to Sdn forum!
For question 1, i think you can do this using pld.
For question 2, to be able to view other tables, you will need to hold the ALT button and press the database table(Properties section on the lower right portion of the PLD screen), you can now view other tables. then to join other tables you will need to RELATE to and Next Segment, you can also find this under Properties and go to Content Tab.
for question 3, you will need to create a query that will lead you to the exact field name, say for example SELECT Price from POR1, this price is actually variable 81 from purchase order line and the equivalent value is the por1.price..

Darius Gragasin
