Line chart with one line per distinct column value

Hi,
For example I have a task dataobject with three fields
type
timeCompleted
duration
I would like to have a line chart that plots the average duration of tasks over time. With a separate line for each task type. Is this possible? All the examples seem to have one line correspond to one column on the dataobject.
Jeremy

Hi Alexandre,
Thanks for the reply. I understand now, I didn't realise you could add the same data object multiple times with different filters. So for each task type I add the task data object to the view with a filter on the task type and this creates a new line in the chart.
I was hoping that when data for a new task type reached the bam then I could make it automatically create a new line in the graph for that type. Oh well, I guess the creation of a new task type will be relativly rare.

Flash line chart with multiple lines

Here a newbie with apex...
Created a flash line chart with as source the following sql statement:
select null link, year, sum(total_cost) from cost
group by year
a chart has been created with a single line. i wanted every year on an own line.
The way i could do this is with multiple series like:
select null link, year, sum(total_cost) from cost
where year =2008
select null link, year, sum(total_cost) from cost
where year =2009
But this not a good solition, cause now i've to add every year a new serie
hope to get some help from here... txn in advanced.

tnx for your reply...
I will explain myself more by a picture of the wanted result, see below:

In your reply you wright you think i can create the graph with pl/sql process. After seeing my example you still think that's needed?
Hope you or some else can help... tnx in advanced.

Line chart with one entry in xml doesn't show up

please refer
http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/2/docs/wwhelp/wwhimpl/common/html/wwhelp.htm?context=LiveDo cs_Parts&file=00001233.html
If I use only one entry in expenses array even then the line
chart is not shown. below is what I'm using:
[Bindable]
public var expenses:ArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection([
/*{Month: "Jan", Profit: 2000, Expenses: 1500, Amount: 450},
{Month: "Feb", Profit: 1000, Expenses: 200, Amount: 600},*/
{Month: "Mar", Profit: 1500, Expenses: 500, Amount: 300}
Looks like it is a general issue or flex limitations.
http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/2/docs/wwhelp/wwhimpl/common/html/wwhelp.htm?context=LiveDo cs_Parts&file=00001233.html

Not sure it is a limitation.
A line needs two points, e.g. a start(x,y) and a finish
(x,y). So adding a single point will not give you a line.
If you want to display just points, then use a PlotChart.

Multiple Line Charts with Column Chart

I want to show two line charts with a column chart. Everything goes on the screen fine, except the two line charts origination point always starts at the same point despite the numbers being different. For example, the ls1 might read 280, 190, 180 and the ls2 is 175, 188, 177 but both origination points start at 280. The other two datapoints should also be close together but they have a substantial gap of about 50 between them. Obviosuly I want to have two separate lines. I have also tried moving the line series below the first lines series with no success.

Hi,
Still Trying:
I've now got this code to function:
var i:int = 0;
                for each (var cat:* in event.result.chart.categories.category){
                    //mx.controls.Alert.show(cat.label);
                    var z:int = 0;
                    for each (var valuee:* in event.result.chart.dataset){
                        //mx.controls.Alert.show(event.result.chart.dataset[z].seriesName);
                        //mx.controls.Alert.show(valuee.sete[i].value);
                        z++;
                    i++
which works fine, how can I get in into Array to make a dataset for the flex charts?
Thanks,

Problem creating line chart with character data

Post Author: burkartt
CA Forum: Charts and Graphs
CR Developer v. 11.5.0.313
I want to create a line chart with data from a SQL2K table to show how much server time each application uses per day. All data is defined a character.
HWA,4/24/2007,01:44.6HWA,4/25/2007,12.28HWB,4/24/2007,4.6HWC,4/24/2007,55.55HWC,4/25/2007,01:22.3HWE,4/24/2007,01:16.1HWE,4/25/2007,0.59
I want one horizontal line per application where the X-axis represents the date and the Y-axis represents the server time. I have tried all column combinations for "On Change Of" and "Show Value(s)". What confuses me is why are Count and Discount the only Summary Options for the "Show Value(s)" data?
Thank you,
tim

I created a group based on date, day, then created the chart and put it in the group footer, on change of server, show sum of time, you will get a seperate chart for each day. I am not sure if this will help, or will just do. Since you have CR XI, you may want to look at the gauge chart also....

Creating SVG Chart with multiple lines

Hi All,
I want to create a chart with multiple lines.
Ex: I have one emp table with empno, sal and deptno columns.
I want to print deptno in x axis and no of employees on y axis.
I want to print one line for employees with sal > 15000 and one more line for employee with sal =< 15000
So one line will show no of employees with sal more than 15000 for each dept. Similar case for the other line and these 2 lines should be in different colors.
For one line the query will go as
select link, deptno, count(empno)
from emp where sal > 15000 group by null, deptno
Is this possible to draw this chart?
Thanks,
Manoj

I wasn't able to do something like what you describe, but I was able to do this:
I defined column A of the table as a Header Row, selected the cells in the table, and chose this chart type (2D 2 Axis):
Then I clicked the chart and in the pane at the right checked 'Axis Name' in the Axis tab and added the axis names.
Maybe this can give you an idea of how you can illustrate the relationships that you want to show.

I need to make an assumption to answer your question: I need to assume that you are getting your data with a query similar to:
select DoW, Part, sum(qty) as Count
from sales
group by DoW, Part
Change that to...
select DoW, Part, sum(qty) as Count
from sales
group by DoW, Part
UNION ALL
select distinct "Target" as DoW, Part, 50 as Count
from sales
That will feed the target into the cross tab, which will create an additional column, Target, with the value 50 for all parts. If the target is for the day, not part, then you would UNION
select distinct DoW, "Target" as Part, 50 as Count
from sales
which would give you an additional row with the constant target value of 50.
HTH,
Carl
P.S., There might be (probably is) better tables to use as the FROM table for the target SELECT. I wanted to keep things simple...

Line chart with 2 different y axis

hi,
i have a question on line chart in apex. i'm using apex 4.2. is it possible to generate a line chart with 2 different y axis? here's a sample data to illustrates what i'd like the chart to look like.
date price percent
1/1 1 100
1/2 2 90
1/3 3 80
1/4 4 70
the x-axis will be the date column. the left y-axis would be the price column. and the right y-axis would be the percent column.
i know i can plot multiple lines in a chart thru different series. but they're based on the same x and y axis range. thanks
jim

You beat me to it.
One of the problems I'm having is that the begining and ending point(s) coincide. So, instead of two completely separate lines, I have an area bounded by the series 1 line on top and the series 2 line on the bottom. Since the points overlay, the values of those points also display one on top of the other. I'll have to see if there is a way to separate the series. I've had 3 separate series before, but never with two y-axis.
Regards,
Howard

Plot empty point in line chart with previous non empty value

Hello,
I have a problem to plot series data in SSRS line chart, with the empty point, I don't want use average and zero provided by the report builder, I want use the last non empty data to fill the empty point, tried to use expression =Previous(Field!Value), no
luck, any one have some good idea?
P.S. do not want to use query to fill the null with previous non null value, just from the performance point view. at last , the chart should have some line as square wave with different height, if I use average for empty point, it shows slop wave line which
is not reflect the real production.
Thanks
Richard

Hi Richard,
In Reporting Services, if the chart type is a linear chart type (bar, column, scatter, line, area, range), null values are shown on the chart as empty spaces or gaps between data points in a series. By default, empty points are calculated by taking the average
of the previous and next data points that are not null.
If we want to use previous value to replace the empty value, please refer to the following steps:
Right-click the field which displayed in Y axis (Height) to open the Series Properties.
In the Value field to modify the expression to look like this:
=iif(isnothing(Sum(Fields!Height.Value)),previous(sum(Fields!Height.Value)),sum(Fields!Height.Value))
The following screenshot is for your reference:
If there are any other questions, please feel free to ask.

Line chart with different "colors": Values not available are displayed as 0

Hello,
I defined a line chart with more than one lines (aka "colors" in the chart wizzard) - each line representing the (monthly) values of a year. x axis are the 12 months of the year; y axis are the values.
When one defines such a line chart in BIP client there is a choice between sum, average and count for the data values.
This is no problem for my template as there is only one value per month/year - so I used sum.
The problem: for the actual year there are no values for future months . But bip nevertheless shows 0 for this month/year... Can one prevent this?
Regards
Peter

Solved it finally - unavailable values must explicitly be passed to the report with nothing contained in the value tag.

Line chart with different length series?

Hello,
I would like to draw a line chart with three different series.
1. Previous year
2. Current year (until now)
3. Estimate (2 months)
I've got 12 values for the previous year, 4 values for the current year (January to April) and 2 estimated values for May and June.
When I define the three series, each is stretched over the whole width of the chart. How can I avoid that and force for instance the April values to be displayed above each other? Is it possible at all with this type of chart? (In Excel, it's quite easy...)
Thanks for any help!
Sabine

Hi,
Youll have to write a query for your series 2 and 3 that has the same number of data points as your series 1 query, in your example that would be 12. Line series charts are always stretched over the full width by design. The months for which you have no data, would have a value of NULL. Please note that there is one issue, which has been fixed in 2.2, that causes the charting engine to only render dots instead of lines for series 2, 3, , if they have a NULL value at the last data point. So if I understand your requirements correctly, you should try this on our 2.2 hosted beta instance, and then upgrade to 2.2 when it comes out.

Marc

How to limit data range in a Line chart with Time Refresh Control

Hi All,
I have a Line chart with Time Refresh Control and I would like to make some constraints to this navigation.
For example, I would like to limit the user to navigate in a data range of 8 hours.
Is this posible?
Thanks in advance

Hi Pedro,
as far as I know, this is not possible using the time controls on an iChart. However, you may have some success by using your own time controls which call JavaScript methods exposed by the applet.
For example, you could begin by hiding the time and calendar buttons on an iChart, and creating some buttons of your own. For instance, to set the start date of a query (and thus the start date of the iChart using the query), you can use the following:
document.getElementById("appletID").getQueryObject().setStartDate(<date string>);
Using code like the above (look into the xMII script assistant and documentation), you should be able to build time controls which satisfy your requirements. The exact format of <date string> in the sample above will depend on the date format defined in the query template this script calls.
Hope this helps,
Sascha

Line chart with more than 15 data series - color problem

Hi all,
I've built a line chart with 32 data series (user can control, which of them are displayed at a time). For series 16 to 32 I did manipulate the URL in the browser directly, because Application Express does only display parametrs for up to 15 series. This works fine so far except of displaying the colors. For each sieries I defined a different color. 29 of my 32 series are displayed in the desired color. But series 29, 31 and 32 are displayed in a default-color (#0099CC). It seems that this is a SVG-problem. In the SVG-source I find the wrong color. When I export my application, I see the right color.
Thanks for help,
Chris

Hello,
Which version of APEX are you using?
Go to your Flash Chart attributes - get into your series (click the icon) in the section of Series Query you'll find the maximum rows.

Line Chart with more than 15 datapoints

I'm using Apex 3.1.
I am trying to create a line chart with more than 15 data points. Apparently 15 is the default. Question is, How do I change the default?
The Wiki has advice for changing the "Maximum Rows" parameter, but "Maximum Rows" is not to be found, either in the chart attributes or series attributes.
http://wiki.shellprompt.net/bin/view/Apex/ChartIssues
I have encountered this limitation with SVG line charts and Flash line and scatter charts. Seems like it must be an easy thing to figure out; I feel embarassed asking such a question. But I've been through all the application property pages, much of the documentation, and several tutorials... Where can I change this? It's driving me nuts!
Thanks
Fred

Line Chart with Multiple Series

Post Author: JayZee
CA Forum: Charts and Graphs
HI
I am trying to create a line chart with multiple series for trend analysis on CR XI but not having much luck, I thought it would be so simple to do!
My data is provided summarized on the server and is returned as 12 rows:
Month Year1 Year2 Year3 Year4 Year5January 100 80 75 90 120February 85 25 40 25 80etc for the rest of the months
My problem is that I can only get the chart to accept the values to display as a summary and not just as the data pulled back from the server. I have read an article on the support site for Crystal 6.0 but it doesn't seem to translate well into XI.
If necessary I could redesign the table to bring back un-summarized data but that is quite a big job.
Any help greatly appreciated.
Jay

In the chart expert, put Month in the 'On change of' box and put each year in the 'Show values' box. This puts the month on the x-axis and plots each year as a line.
Is that what you want?
I did this in CR 2008 using your data in an Excel sheet.
