Is the line charts problem still around in Apex 2.2?

I think the problem is pretty well known:
Someone wants to display three series, the first containing twelve values, one for every month.
The second contains less values, starting at month 1.
The third contains only a few values and starts somewhere in the middle.
In 2.0 all series where stretched over the whole diagram width, which made the diagram pretty useless. Someone said this bug would be fixed in 2.2, but somehow I can't spot the difference. Please, have a look yourselves:
http://apex.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=41909:2:3117835281290116
Does it make any sense to put more effort in experimenting, or is the bug still open?

Hallo Sabine und Dennes,
Da habe ich mich wohl in einen deutschsprachigen Thread eingeschaltet ...
Leider bestand in 2.2 / 2.2.1 fuer uns nicht die Moeglichkeit, die Schwachstellen unserer SVG Charts zu beheben. Dies werden wir erst mit der Version 3.0 angehen koennen, die im kommenden Jahr heraus kommen wird – ein genaues Datum habe ich natuerlich noch nicht. In der Zwischenzeit stehe ich aber gern fuer Fragen zur Verfuegung, um vielleicht der Zeitverschwendung etwas Abhilfe leisten zu koennen. Im oben genannten Beispiel erscheint mir ein Cluster-Bar Chart als besser geeignet, wie Dennes angemerkt hat. Zudem nehme ich auch gern Verbesserungsvorschlaege und Anregungen von Euch entgegen, vieles von dem was unsere Kunden uns vorschlagen, bemuehen wir uns in zukuenftigen Versionen aufzugreifen.
Viele Guesse vom Oracle APEX Development Team aus New York,

Problems with the line chart - dashboard

I have a problem in the line chart in the dashboard SP4.
Clicking on the legend of the graphic , the serie (line) disappears. Clicking again in the legend, the line appears but the markers don’t.
Someone knows how to solve this problem?
Follow the examples.
Thanks.

Hi Jane,
This is definitely the tool problem.
Might be you can try restarting xcelsius or your computer (sometimes it works, really !)
Just out of curiosity, why do you want to clink on legends.

I have draw the line chart in JSP using the JChart and now I wan to display the value label in the line there..
but the value wasn't show..
anyone can help me..
thx..

Hi,
what I do understand, you want to display the value of each point in your Line Graph.
I guess you will be having BIGraph.xml file. In this file check the "Show Data Tips When Mouse is over bars" checkbox.
Lets try with this.

You can specify the '%' in the 'Postfix' field in the 'Display Settings' on the 'Chart Attributes' page.

Malformed svg with Line Chart and empty results on ApEx 3.0

Hello everyone,
I'm experiencing problems here at our local ApEx installation:
If I add a line chart using a query that returns an empty result, for example,
SELECT 1 link, 2 label, 3 value FROM dual WHERE 1=2;
I get a malformed svg, and Firefox (2.0) does not display the chart but an error message.
I traced the error and found that the "no data found"-text to be displayed has a syntactical error:
<svg width="600" height="400" viewBox="-5 -5 600 400" preserveAspectRatio="none"> <text class="nodatafound" x="40" y="20">No data found.</text></g></svg>
The <g>-tag is closed although never opened. So the SVG-engine in Firefox behaves right by throwing an error message. However, internet explorer with the Adobe-plugins seems to ignore the tag and displays the correct svg image.
If using a different type of chart (i've tested with the vertical bars), the error does not occur, neither does it when the result is not empty. I've noticed though, that
the line chart seems to have problems if only one row is returned, it then
displays an empty graph.
Has anyone had the same kind of problem or is able to reproduce it, so I could file a bug report to Oracle?
Any help is appreciated,
Marc
PS: I use ApEx 3.0.0.00.20 on Oracle 9i

How can i debug ? Is anything helpful reported in the iAS logfiles?

HTMLDB Line Chart Problem in Version 2.0

After upgrading to 2.0, several of our line charts stopped rendering.
It seems that if a datapoint's value is equal to zero, the line will not render.
However if I filter out all records > 0, then the chart works fine.
I requested a workspace(OTN) and tried it out there and ended up with the same results.
Is this bug in the charting engine or am I missing something?? Thanks for any help.

Steps to reproduce:
CREATE TABLE TEST01
(MONTH     VARCHAR2(15),
JCOUNT NUMBER);
INSERT INTO TEST01 (MONTH,JCOUNT) VALUES('OCT-04',30);
INSERT INTO TEST01 (MONTH,JCOUNT) VALUES('NOV-04',40);
INSERT INTO TEST01 (MONTH,JCOUNT) VALUES('DEC-04',30);
INSERT INTO TEST01 (MONTH,JCOUNT) VALUES('JAN-05',145);
INSERT INTO TEST01 (MONTH,JCOUNT) VALUES('FEB-05',60);
INSERT INTO TEST01 (MONTH,JCOUNT) VALUES('MAR-05',50);
INSERT INTO TEST01 (MONTH,JCOUNT) VALUES('APR-05',161);
INSERT INTO TEST01 (MONTH,JCOUNT) VALUES('MAY-05',82);
INSERT INTO TEST01 (MONTH,JCOUNT) VALUES('JUN-05',177);
INSERT INTO TEST01 (MONTH,JCOUNT) VALUES('JUL-05',213);
INSERT INTO TEST01 (MONTH,JCOUNT) VALUES('AUG-05',122);
INSERT INTO TEST01 (MONTH,JCOUNT) VALUES('SEP-05',140);
INSERT INTO TEST01 (MONTH,JCOUNT) VALUES('OCT-05',70);
INSERT INTO TEST01 (MONTH,JCOUNT) VALUES('NOV-05',67);
INSERT INTO TEST01 (MONTH,JCOUNT) VALUES('DEC-05',27);
INSERT INTO TEST01 (MONTH,JCOUNT) VALUES('JAN-06',46);
INSERT INTO TEST01 (MONTH,JCOUNT) VALUES('FEB-06',31);
INSERT INTO TEST01 (MONTH,JCOUNT) VALUES('MAR-06',17);
INSERT INTO TEST01 (MONTH,JCOUNT) VALUES('APR-06',15);
INSERT INTO TEST01 (MONTH,JCOUNT) VALUES('MAY-06',9);
INSERT INTO TEST01 (MONTH,JCOUNT) VALUES('JUN-06',5);
INSERT INTO TEST01 (MONTH,JCOUNT) VALUES('JUL-06',5);
INSERT INTO TEST01 (MONTH,JCOUNT) VALUES('AUG-06',1);
INSERT INTO TEST01 (MONTH,JCOUNT) VALUES('SEP-06',5);
INSERT INTO TEST01 (MONTH,JCOUNT) VALUES('OCT-06',0);
INSERT INTO TEST01 (MONTH,JCOUNT) VALUES('NOV-06',0);
INSERT INTO TEST01 (MONTH,JCOUNT) VALUES('DEC-06',0);
ADD A REGION TO PAGE CONTAINING A LINE CHART;
HERE'S THE SELECT:
SELECT NULL LINK,MONTH,JCOUNT FROM TEST01;
MAKE SURE TO SET THE MAXIMUM RECORD COUNT TO 50;
THEN RUN THE PAGE
EXPECTED RESULTS: LINE CHART WILL RENDER
ACTUAL RESULTS: LINE CHART DOES NOT RENDER

Looks like a bug. Oracle may be aware of it. The best workaround I could come up with is adding a very small amount to your value (JCOUNT).
SELECT *
FROM (SELECT NULL link,
               month,
               CASE WHEN jcount = 0 then .00001
                    ELSE jcount END jcount
          FROM TEST01
         ORDER BY TO_DATE(month,'MON-RR'))Only problem you have with this is if you display data point values. The value for zero JCOUNTs will display as .00001. You can work around that by picking a format mask for the "Data Label Format" value for your series.

Crystal reports in jsp ,the Line chart 's line can't display in jsp?

that is example crystal-reports-10 for Jbuild 2005,
I just modify such in viewreport.jsp:
<crviewer:viewer displayToolbarRefreshButton="true" isOwnPage="true" displayToolbarCrystalLogo="false" displayToolbar="true" displayToolbarExportButton="true"
displayToolbarPrintButton="true" displayGroupTree="false" viewerName="worldsales" reportSourceType="reportingComponent" reportSourceVar="<%= path %>"><crviewer:report reportName="<%= path %>"/></crviewer:viewer>
it can't display a Line chart rpt's line and background's picture, and when I press refresh button report a Error "Error finding JNDI name (yhgl)"
help!!

The jars should be in your installed Crystal Reports folder( \Crystal Decisions\..\java\lib or something like that...). The problem is that your server (Tomcat and others) ignores the system classpath completely (it sets its own in its startup script).
Therefore, in order for Tomcat to find the jars, those jars have to be placed in in %CATALINA_HOME%\common\lib\. There, they will be available for all your applications. If you don't want them available globally, put them in your particular webapp's WEB-INF\lib directory.

Svg line chart problem with latest patch?

Hi team,
I was checking out one page containing an SVG chart that I didn't modify in 2 weeks, according to the application builder, but it seems to hang after displaying the first line series of 4 total.
It was working before the last patch was installed.
It's page 65 of application 21670 in the online environment.
Choose "automobile" from the first drop down list and click on the button, the chart appears but then it seems to be waiting for something to download.
If you move the mouse over any textual part, you can see in the status line the following message:
"xml processing instuction not at start of external entity: line 172, column 0".
If you open up the SVG source by right clicking on the chart, you will see at the end of the file an error text message returned by oracle (ORA-06502), but what is particularly strange is the presence of an <?xml> processing instruction just in the middle of the source code listing.
It looks like it is trying to append the second chart series by appending another svg source file.
Could you check if I did anything wrong or if it is a problem of the patch?
I have got other chart type running without problems.
Thanks!
Bye,
Flavio

Things are getting complicated.
I found some cases where the chart is displayed correctly, which made me think of some unexpected values returned by the underlying queries.
Since my chart is made up of 4 different series returning 12 points each, I assembled the queries with UNION ALL and checked out what was returned both in a failing case and a successful one but I can't figure out a valid explanation, the only thing I notice is that in the failing case there are some values higher than average, say 10 times bigger than the average value and for some reason the chart stops drawing points exactly after the peak value (1155.62, see below).
Each series returns exactly 12 points, some nulls, but that's doesn't seem to be the problem.
I wonder if the problem is with the "autoscale" algorithm, but I am lost at the moment...

Drawing 2d line chart problem, urgent please!!!

Hello,
can anyone help me with the function GRAPH_MATRIX_2D please,
i couldn't draw a line graph with three data series, i mean with three lines in the graph.
i want to the chart to be drawn as line graph at the beginning, i shouldn't have to change the chart type later,
can anybody send me a sample code that does what i want.
i am expecting your answers,
thanks.

Hi,
have you checked the two reports Matthias mentioned?
After downloading the SAP Chart Designer the general procedure should look like: create your chart settings interactively using the designer. Save these settings as a local XML file. Use this XML in your ABAP application and additionally create a data XML at runtime (the format is described in the pdf of the SAP Chart Designer zip).
Regards, Kai
PS: Please don't use these very outdated function modules graph_matrix* / grstat* in new projects!

How to dynamically add new line series to the line chart in flex?

i need to add line series dynamically..and each line series should have a different data provider...

A chart can have only 1 dataProvider which in my case is an ArrayCollection.
The chart will update every time the dataProvider changes if you use binding.
So you have to write a function that periodically populates the ArrayCollection with data from the server and the chart will update automatically.

Line Chart Problem, multiple point in X axis

I need to create a line chart , with many data points between two points in the X-Axis.
For example,
for month january my reading is 4,3,5,2,8
for month feb my reading is 1,5,3,5,2
I need only two points in X axis, which are january and feb and all the reading should come in gaph.
I am attaching a picture of the graph i required. Can any one help me how should i fill the arraycollection or XML in order to get the graph.

Here is a script which will illustrate how to conditionally display the X-axis label on a line chart:
DROP TABLE tmp_test_data;
CREATE TABLE tmp_test_data
(date_stamp DATE,
value      NUMBER);
BEGIN
dbms_random.seed(1234535678);
FOR i IN 1 .. 233 LOOP
    -- get a random integer between 1 and 100
    INSERT INTO tmp_test_data
     (date_stamp, value)
    VALUES (TRUNC(SYSDATE)-i, dbms_random.VALUE(1,100));
END LOOP;
END;
SELECT NULL link, CASE WHEN MOD(day,7) = 0 THEN day ELSE NULL END label, value
FROM (SELECT date_stamp, value, ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY date_stamp) day
         FROM tmp_test_data a
         WHERE date_stamp >= TRUNC(SYSDATE)-90
         ORDER BY date_stamp) b
;There may be a better way to do this. I know this will work.

Line chart problem

Hi,
I'm using crystal reports for eclipse.
When I create a line chart (with 4 ranges) and refresh the report for the first time evrything looks alright.
After saving and reopening the report something funny is hapening.
If I refresh the chart the line thickness is increasing.
If I repeat the refresh action I will get only 1 visible very thick line.
Is it not possible to create a line chart with 4 ranges.
If I make the same chart with only 3 ranges this is not hapening.
Hope someone can help me.
Ruud

Hi,
I have not tested your code, but check these links. This might help.

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
$30,000
$20,000
$10,000
$0
instead of
50000
40000
30000
20000
10000
0
Here's my linechart code:
<mx:LineChart id="revTimeLineChart"
            width="100%" height="100%"
            showDataTips="true" >
            <mx:horizontalAxis>
               <mx:CategoryAxis id="lcCatAxis" categoryField="name"/>
            </mx:horizontalAxis>
            <mx:series>
               <mx:LineSeries id="ls" yField="revenue" displayName="Revenue" showDataEffect="{slideIn}"/>      (yField is what I want to format....)
            </mx:series>
</mx:LineChart>
Can you please let me know how can this be achieved?
Cheers!
