Images in Narrative View

Hi there,

Is this correct?
Thanks in advance,

Problem with javascript in narrative view

Hi gurús!
I'm trying to put some conditional logic in a narrative view of my analysis. I found some tips, and wrote that:
<script>
if('@{FIN01TIME}{ }'=='Period')
document.write("[b]Fiscal Year : [/b]@1       [b]Fiscal Quarter : [/b]@2       [b]Fiscal Period : [/b]@3       [b]Roll Up : [/b]@{FIN01ND}{ }      [b]Cost Center : [/b]@{FIN01CC}{ }       [b]Currency : [/b]@{FIN01CURR}{ }")
if('@{FIN01TIME}{ }'=='Quarter')
document.write("[b]Fiscal Year : [/b]@1       [b]Fiscal Quarter : [/b]@2       [b]Roll Up : [/b]@{FIN01ND}{ }      [b]Cost Center : [/b]@{FIN01CC}{ }       [b]Currency : [/b]@{FIN01CURR}{ }")
if('@{FIN01TIME}{ }'=='Year')
document.write("[b]Fiscal Year : [/b]@1       [b]Roll Up : [/b]@{FIN01ND}{ }      [b]Cost Center : [/b]@{FIN01CC}{ }       [b]Currency : [/b]@{FIN01CURR}{ }")
</script>
All works good, but the problem happens when I "click" on paging buttons of my analysis (see attached image: javascript_problem_paging.png). After click, it leaves me to a blank page with only narrative view content. Also, displays "error on page" warning in status bar (see attached image: javascript_problem_afterclick.png)
I believe that this issue happens with "onclick" event of javascript. I tried to disable it, but still not works.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks for your time!

Fabian

Hi all!
I get my own answer, jeje.
Instead of use "document.write..." I put another narrative view with a <div> control and set it's content by "document.getElementById(..).innerHTML = "(same HTML code)""
It works perfect! I hope that this achievement helps somebody else.

Data in a narrative view.

Sorry if this is simple. Just want to display the multiple values from a report prompt, not dashboard prompt, in the report. My effort has taken me to the narrative view and am using @12 to display the values in the column which has been filtered. But it is listing the values many times for each row. Can I use the narrative to display only distinct @12s or is there a better way to get the prompt values into the report. Thanks

You can do this with pivot table, it is not possible with Narrative.
1. Create pivot view for same report
2. exclude all the columns other than the column you want to show
3. Put the column in measures
4. duplicate the column, drag the duplicate column in to columns and hide
5. drag measure labels into Rows
6. apply aggregation to First on column in measures.
it works, I will blog it shortly with screen shots soon.

Issue filtering a report (based on narrative view) with a dashboard prompt.

I used HTML and java-script codes in narrative view to solve the issue of "linking different reports on selecting values from a drop-down". A new issue has cropped up due to that implementation. The issue is that i can't attach a dashboard prompt to such a report. This means, when i put this report on a dashboard page with a dashboard prompt to help filter the report, the report does not gets filtered (it does not seems to be connected to the dashboard prompt).
Has anyone faced this issue before? If yes, please let me know how to tackle it at the earliest.

Ramil

Display Image in Power View and Power BI

Hi all,
I need to create a report in power view where i need to display images in tile. I have found one solution to do so, to store the images as a binary data in data model table using the following link
http://www.sharepointanalysthq.com/2014/09/adding-data-bound-images-to-power-view-with-power-query/comment-page-1/#comment-87049
I tried this but still not able to show the images.
Please anyone can help me with solution in detail.
Thanks,
Piyush Jain

Hi Piyush,
are you storing your Data in an Excel Power Pivot model?
Make sure to follow step marking the column containing the Pictures as Data Type Binary.
Are you using jpeg or another picture format?
Best,
Mark

Lightroom 5 is distorting my images in Develop view

When working on images in Develop, Lightroom 5 is distorting them. For example, let's say I'm looking at an image in Library view (fig.1), then switch to Develop view (fig.2) — the image is suddenly compressed horizontally (or stretched vertically, however you choose to describe it).
At other times, images get distorted and rotated (fig.3). And at other times, images were appearing as though a sharpen filter had been applied with accented highlights — but this particular distortion doesn't seem to be happening anymore.
This does not happen to all images in the catalog. I'm running LR 5.2 on a 15" MBP with 16GB ram and a 1.2TB fusion drive.
Any help is greatly appreciated. I'm late on a deadline beause of this, and other local (NYC) experts, as well as Adobe phone support, are as stumpted as I am.
fig.1
fig.2
fig.3

Did you find an answer? I'm having the same issue with LR 4.4. It didn't happen with 4.3
The only thing I've found to fix it is re-reading the MetaData file for each affected photo and it is taking forever.

How to display a image in webdynpro view using a bytearry

Hi,
byte[] img = wdContext.nodeYywwwdata_Import_Input().nodeOutput().nodeOutMime().currentOutMimeElement().getLine();
use this code to create resource and you need to set this value to the context created to display the image suppose in the image UI and set the source property with this attribute:-
IWDResource res=WDResourceFactory.createCachedResource(b,"MyImage",WDWebResourceType.JPG_IMAGE);
IPrivateAppView.IVn_ImageTabElement imageEle=wdContext.createVn_ImageTabElement();
imageEle .setVa_Name(res.toString());
wdContext.nodeVn_ImageTab().addElement(imageEle);
Hope this may help you.

Double clicking an image in Browser view

I see that the behavior for double clicking an image in Browser view has changed between Aperture 2 & 3. In version 2, double clicking an image would jump from Browser view to zoom in on that image in full screen mode. Now in version 3, double clicking just switches to that image in Viewer mode in the main window, without entering into full screen mode.
While I guess this change makes some sense given the changes to full screen mode in v.3, my old fingers have gotten used to doing things the old way. To recreate what I used to do in v.2 I need to double click, then hit 'F' to do to full screen mode and then do the reverse to get back where I started.
Is there anyway I can change this behavior to the old v.2 way? I see lots of ways to customize hotkeys and commands, but nothing to change behaviors for a double click.
Thanks!

I can't find anything, but I'm still finding my way around!
I don't think you need to double click and press F..... just pressing F should change views.
Another way is to drag the "Full Screen" icon into the toolbar, and you can just click that.

Formula in a narrative view

Hi Gurus,
Can you please help me with narrative views in OBIEE (11.1.1.5)?
I have a table that lists customer sales., e.g.
Customer Sales($mn) Rank
Cust1 800 1
Cust2 450 2
Cust3 350 3
Cust4 300 4
Cust5 40 5
Cust6 30 6
Cust7 20 7
Cust8 10 8
Total 2000
The requirement is to build a narrative view that uses different columns and totals. In this case, the narrative view should say:
Top *3* customers provide *80%* of the revenue.
(n = 3)
(80% = sum(sales) where rank in top n / total sales) = (800+450+350)/2000*100
I can't find a way to incorporate formulas. I can call the sales column (@2) but not able to put the calculation in the narrative view. Has anyone done such a thing before or knows how to do it?
Thank you!!

Thank you, HM... that worked great!!
I have another quick follow up - is there a way to refer to individual values in the result set in a narrative? For example, based on the same table:
Customer $mn Rank
Cust1 800 1
Cust2 450 2
Cust3 350 3
Cust4 300 4
Cust5 40 5
Cust6 30 6
Cust7 20 7
Cust8 10 8
Total 2000
I want to create another narrative that is the ratio of sales of the first and third ranked customer; i.e., the narrative I am trying to build is:
No. 3 has to increase sales by *2.28* times to equal No. 1.
(2.28 = 800/350)
Is that possible, given that my table is sorted by rank?

Pagination in a Narrative view?

Is there a way to use pagination controls in a Narrative view?
I'm looking for either an out-of-the-box way to turn this on (maybe I'm just not seeing it?), or if that's not supported, then any ideas on how it might be otherwise implemented.
Is this do-able at all? Am I just not seeing the place to active this?
Thanks very much.

Script result not showing up in narrative view

I'm making a org chart as a narrative view.
If I do not tick "Contains HTML Markup" the result of the script is displayed. If I cut-n-past that content into a HTML file it display the result I'm looking for. However if I tick "Contains HTML Markup" the narrative view displays as empty.I have Attached two screenshots displaying this.
Any ideas what I'm not doing right? Have I forgotten some config to enable scripts in narrative view?
this is the script I'm using
Prefix:
<script type='text/javascript' src='https://www.google.com/jsapi'></script>
    <script type='text/javascript'>
if(document.URL.indexOf("saw.dll?Answers") == -1) {

      var data = new google.visualization.DataTable();
        data.addColumn('string', 'Name');
        data.addColumn('string', 'Manager');
        data.addColumn('string', 'ToolTip');
        var myOrgArray=[];
        var tempStr = "";

        chart.draw(data, {allowHtml:true});
    </script>
    <div id='div_orgchart'></div>

Yes, sorry, client is obviously sufficient as well.
Just tried your code and same behaviour here and it doesn't do squat either. Can't deep-dive into that code right now but it's definitely code-related issue rather than a browser one for example.
Thought about trying d3js? Would be easier to reproduce for me as I use that more often than Google's data-munching pipe that pushes all your data through Google Analytics
Edit: Clicked too quickly. Wanted to point you to the SampleApp dashboard page which hosts the example I meant: http://slc02oka.oracle.com:7780/analytics/saw.dll?Dashboard&PortalPath=%2Fshared%2F02.%20Visualizations%2F_portal%2F2.32…

Edit 2: Jesus I really should stop clicking "Save Reply" just to not lose it. Simply show your analysis on a dashboard and you're fine. It'll work.

Presentation variable in iframe/narrative view/Go URL

I am able to see the peresentaion variable declared in Dashboard Prompt in narrative view.
But when I put in iframe with narrative in Go URL then i am not able to filter the report based on presentation variable Values..." The page throws error
'saw.aViewsToRefersh.all' is null or not an object.'

Do you get that error if you remove the presentation
variable column (@n). Does the a simple iframe work.
Also, how are you referring the presentation variable
in the iframe. I hope you are referring via a dummy
column.
Thanks,
Venkat
http://oraclebizint.wordpress.com
Yes the simple iframe work well in the browser. As I am trying to run report based on the dashboard prompt. I have declared presentation variable in Dashboard prompt and referring the presentation variable in the iframe via a dummy column. when i click on 'Go' of dashboard prompt after selecting the value in dropdown list, I see the error on left bottom most of Internet Explorer Showing " Done" is null or not any object. also i see javascript:void(null). I assume that the variable value is not getting passed to parameters i have given in Go URL
