Line Graph help

Post Author: Erobson
CA Forum: Charts and Graphs
I have data organized into rows as follows:Site | Period 1 | Period 2 | Period 3 | Period 4|For instance,Site 1 | 45% | 35% | 56% | 60% |Site 2 | 50% | 45% | 36% | 40% |I want to create a line graph where each line represents a site with the periods as the x axis and the % as the y axis (I want to graph across the rows). All the examples I've been able to find graph down columns, and I can't figure out how to change this. Any help is apreciated.Best,ERobson

There are a number of possible solutions. Here is, IMHO, the simplest:Create a line graph. Under the Data tab, click Advanced. In the "On Change Of" section, put Site. In the Show Values, put each of your Period fields.If you don't want it broken down by site, simply change "On Change Of" to either "For Each Record" or "For All Records", depending on what you want.

Help needed in plotting Line Graph!!!!!!!!!Pls help!!

Hi, i need help in plotting a simple line graph showing the x&y axis and has to plot 3 different lines in the same graph.I have written a program and i need to implement this graph in it.Is there any tutorial for plotting line graphs,i mean steps included.
Please help!

You describe your need, but not where it originates from.
Is it a programming assignment? If so, I hope this is not your chosen major, as you will fail because you are a non-resourceful plagarist.
Do you need to simply graph some data? Use an existing package. There are free ones somewhere.
What do you mean "i have written a program and i need to implement this graph in it"? If you wrote the program, wouldn't you be done?
Enjoy programming

Here's a simple line graph applet I did some time backimport java.awt.*;
public class LineGraff extends java.applet.Applet{
   double []toGraff = {6.0, -14.0, -164.0, -210.0, 108.0, 770.0,

</DATA>
Note that each Branch_Desc has 12 periods called CURRPERIOD,CURPERSUB1,CURPERSUB2 ...... and 12 values for those periods as VALUECURRENTPERIOD, VALUECURRENTPERIODSUB1, VALUECURRENTPERIODSUB2......
I need to create a Line Graph for each Branch for the 12 periods as defined above where VALUECURRENTPERIOD, VALUECURRENTPERIODSUB1 etc. are the values for that period. The current BIPublisher Chart tool only allows one Value and One Label. In my case I have 12 VALUES (VALUECURRENTPERIOD etc.) and 12 LABELS (CURRPERIOD, CURPERSUB1 etc.). The SERIES or LEGEND should be the Branch Desc . So what I am looking for is to plot values(12 values) for 6 branches (so six lines) over a period of time (12 periods).

Hi Tim,
We have this XML data calculated from several tables where the layout was in the format of One account(a Branch in this case) and 12 periodic values for the same . So reformatting the XML is not going to be easy as the source data is like this itself. I tried un-pivioting the table (as this one is already pivoted) but it looks like Oracle doesn't support this feature yet, but is suported in DB2 or SQL. Please take a look at this link
http://blogs.ittoolbox.com/database/technology/archives/unpivot-query-12798?close=true
So I am stuck with the data in this format and users want a line graph for each branch over he period of time. May be somone on this forum can figure out how to un-pivot a table in Oracle. Thanks for your help in advance.

Help creating a simple line graph

Hi
Im very new to the Java language, yet have some background knowledge of C and C++.
i have a problem with an application i am developing for a university assignment, the program is to simply simulate a water pressured nuclear reaction. the main JFrame holds various JLabels that show the current core temperature, electricity produced etc. But i want to add a very simplistic line graph to the same window, it is to purely show a line that updates (no axis or labels). The graph is to illustrate how much electricity was produced on the current cycle of the reactor, the user can initiate each cycle by pressing a JButton.
i have found some info on drawing, but cannot find anything that helps.
Any info on how to do this (its only meant to be a samllish part of the main window), any code examples or sites that have a very relevant tutorial would be appreciated.
Sorry for the length of this, and if anyone needs any more info on this then let me know.
thanks

Help please, I need a line graph from a chart with existing data.

I am trying to put together a form for tracking my weaight loss. I have decided on a format that I like, but I can't figure out how to create a line graph to represent the chart that collects the data. The graph will need to begin with the "start weight" and track all chages throught the 42 cells until the final "net loss."
Does anyone know how to set this up as a line graph? Your help would be much appreciated, thank you in advance.

Skipping ahead and assuming I picked the correct direction then i have a possible solution:
You need to get the weight loss numbers into a single column. If the table of 42 cells is called Table 1 and the table with the start weight is Table 2 and we call our new table Table 5:
Cell B2 of Table 5 = Table 2::A2
Cell B3 of Table 5 =B2+OFFSET(Table 1 :: $B$2,MOD(ROW()-3,7),QUOTIENT(ROW()-3,7))
Fill down with that formula

CR 9 - Need HELP Setting Line Graph colors in the Chart Expert

Post Author: desselle
CA Forum: Charts and Graphs
Hello,
I created a Crystal Report (CR) based off an existing Trend Analysis report. I have created a VB6 application that calls the .RPT file I created for the report in CR. The VB6 app sets the report recordset via code that corresponds to the .TTX file, and the parameters . The report contains a Line graph that plots five pieces of data. The report & graph work good. The Problem: CR determines the color of each line on the graph. However, I need to set the color for each line to correspond to the colors used on our existing reports. The users are accustom to a certain color representing a certain set of data on the existing reports.   I have tried everything I can think of and from all documentation I can find, and nothing changes the line colors.   I have tried all of the following:
1.) From the Chart Expert, Option tab, I click the Format button next to Color and setup conditional color settings per each piece of data.   However, when I run the report these conditional color settings are not reflected on the CR graph.     I am using formula fields (based off database fields in the recordset) to produce the report. However, I only see the database fields to use in the conditional color formatting screen and not the formula fields.    I thought this would possibly be the cause why the colors wonu2019t change on the CR, but I canu2019t find a way to make the formula fields show up in the list.
2.)Also, I tried right clicking the individual lines of the graph and change the selected item color, but this didnu2019t change the color either. I do this in Design mode and Preview mode and neither one changes the color of the lines on the graph.
3.)I have also looked into the CR object model to see if I can change the line colors of the graph via code and it doesn't look like I am given this flexibility.
Do you know what I am doing wrong here?   I just want to be able to set the color of each line on the CR graph to the color I want instead of using the default colors. Are there some Hot Fixes that I need to apply to my copy of CR?
Thanks

Hello,
I got the problem fixed w/ the line graph not making the data lines the same color on the report as on the frmPlot graph.   Compare the two screen shots below.   The problem was as follows: When I created the graph (in the Chart Expert) the field u201CReadingDateu201D was not one of the Report Fields, and all the other fields were Report Fields (Reading, LowAlarm, UpperAlarm, LowerLimit, & UpperLimit). See the 3rd screen shot below. ReadingDate does show up as a Report Field now but it wasnu2019t at first.   Originally, this field was only available in the Chart Expert as a recordset field. When I changed this field to be a Report Field, the graph then allowed me to change the data series line colors.   This was not obvious at all.   From the beginning when I setup the graph and passed in the recordset from VB it graphed all of the data series fine.   The colors that the Chart Expert chose for each line just didnu2019t match what was on the frmPlot graph.   Anyway, it is working now.     I can at least say I learned (somethingu2019s to-do and somethingu2019s not to-do) a good bit about Crystal Reports in the process.
Thanks

Line graph for population(billions) and years HELP!

I have a homework assignment, and I need to use a line graph, to graph the stats below. When I try and do this in Numbers it is giving me one line for the year and one line for population. What I want is ONE line going from 0.3, 0.31, 0.5... but I want those numbers on the graph to match up with the corresponding year, so those numbers would go with 1000, 1250, and 1500.
If someone could provide step by step instructions I would really appreciate it.
Thanks,
Brandon

To achieve that, the column containing the year values must be a header one or the cells must be formatted as TEXT.

Thanks for reply.
In my case, I have to plot curves.
and some Series have different X-axis values.
I have no choice, but to plot them.
The same thing was working fine with Reports 6i + Graphics 6i.
What is Scatter Plot?
Thanks again.
This is a limitation in the current line graph in
Reports 10g (9.0.4). I can't recall whether this has
improved in 10.1.2 or it was planned for the next
rev.
Would trying a scatter plot be better?
Line graphs are normally meant for regular intervals
on x-axis, so using the example of dates, Jan, Feb
and Dec would be placed right next to each other,
rather than scaled with the right distance between
Feb and Dec.

How to draw cumulative line graph over the stacked bar chart?(SSRS)

Hello,
I need your help to draw a cumulative line graph over this bar chart.
I need your help to draw a cumulative line graph over this bar chart in SSRS.
The dimension (Category Group) is "Hour" in this case. and expression is sum of two distinct values like 'Y' and 'N' in Activity column(Series Groups). The sum(Activity=Y) in green color and sum(Activity='N') in Red color.
I require to draw a cumulative line graph in this same chart, that should give the result of cumulative Sum(Activity) for each hour?? I mean sum of (Y+N) for each hour and that should be cumulative over the hour.
I mean sum of (Y+N) for each hour and that should be cumulative over the hour.

How do I change the line color in a line graph?

I used Illustrator to create a line graph. (Not my desired option as I normally import them from R and then edit, but the textbook wanted to show that you can create graphs and edit them in Illustrator)
Anyway, I did all of the editing except that I can't change the color of the line. My assignment requires me to match the textbook example and the textbook does not provide instructions on how to do it. I've done just about any method I can think of and the line still stays light gray. I'm almost willing to just give up and lose the points but something as simple as color can't be this hard, right? Right?

Whenever I try to shift+direct select it thinks I want to move the line, so as I shift + direct select and drag my mouse across the line (to highlight it all) it moves a chunk of the line and turns it into a near perpendicular line.
I found the appearance window, it just says "Path" (the color I want it to be that it's not)
"Stroke" 4pt
"Fill" (the color I want it to be that it's not)
"Opacity": Default
And some other buttons. I think I'll try the help line tomorrow, I know I saw a customer service number somewhere and I'm only here because the chat was unavailable. This is only one of my 3 problems with my assignment so I'll search here for answers to the other two. Learning new things is rarely fun.

Printing a Line Graph in SAP

Hi Experts,
Can anybody tell me how to print line graph in SAP. I do not want use ALV print function for graph generation.
Here I am attaching you sample program for your reference. Name of the program is GFW_PROG_PRES_SHOW_MULT.
Thanks in Advance.
Regards,
Shaik.

Hi Meera,
you can use FM "GRAPH_MATRIX_3D' to print graphs. See if this works out good for your.
Simple code to use this would be as follows.
DATA: BEGIN OF itab_data OCCURS 0,
dataname(15),
quantity1 TYPE i,
quantity2 TYPE i,
quantity3 TYPE i,
END OF itab_data,
BEGIN OF itab_options OCCURS 0,
option(20),
END OF itab_options.
itab_data-dataname = 'Electricity'.
itab_data-quantity1 = 55.
itab_data-quantity2 = 62.
itab_data-quantity3 = 59.
APPEND itab_data.
itab_data-dataname = 'Gas'.
itab_data-quantity1 = 35.
itab_data-quantity2 = 52.
itab_data-quantity3 = 44.
APPEND itab_data.
itab_data-dataname = 'Water'.
itab_data-quantity1 = 18.
itab_data-quantity2 = 22.
itab_data-quantity3 = 19.
APPEND itab_data.
CALL FUNCTION 'GRAPH_MATRIX_3D'
EXPORTING
col1 = 'Jan'
col2 = 'Feb'
col3 = 'Mar'
titl = 'Gráfico Teste - Carlos'
TABLES
data = itab_data
opts = itab_options
EXCEPTIONS
OTHERS = 1.
Hope this helps.
Thanks

BI Publisher 11g. Plotting multiple lines in a line graph

Hi,
We have a requirment where we need to show multiple lines in a line graph. I have gone through the earlier posts for this topic but when I am following the same steps I am not able to resolve the problem.
I have 3 mterics: Month (which will be X-axis) , Size (Which will be on y-axis) and Name. I have names for 10 tables and i want to display 10 lines in my line graph.
In the chart generator, I am using Month in "Labels", Table name for "color" field" and size in the "values" section.
When I am trying this I am geting the following error in chart generator. It says " The data required 2 columns. The data has only 1 column." To trick the system, I also put a dummy column with static value of 1, but then also i am getting the same error, that it requires 2 columns.
the sample XML for the chart is like this:
<G_2>
<TABLE_SIZE_TRENDS>43.90832000000001</TABLE_SIZE_TRENDS>
<TABLE_NAME>Table1</TABLE_NAME>
<MONTH_NAME_TRENDS>April</MONTH_NAME_TRENDS>
</G_2>
- <G_2>
<TABLE_SIZE_TRENDS>69.62872</TABLE_SIZE_TRENDS>
<TABLE_NAME>Table2</TABLE_NAME>
<MONTH_NAME_TRENDS>April</MONTH_NAME_TRENDS>
</G_2>
It looks pretty straightforward but I am stuck in it for quite some time now.
All your guidance is greatly appreciated in this regard.
Regards,
Aakarsh

any help? still need help. thanks
