Line Graph Marker Size

I created a icon that I want to substitute the default square markers for in a line graph. When I apply the change, the icons are way to small. How do I adjust the size?

Which version of Illustrator are you using?
Also, describe how you prepared your custom graph design. Show some screenshots if you think it may help to understand your issue.

How to change marker size in line graphs

Hello,
I'm using line graph and i show markers for the user know where to see a tooltip. I observed that the line markers are very big and clutter my graph when points are very close one anothers. I would like to make them smaller, but I don't know how to do it.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Plan.

Is it possible to modify marker shapes in a line graph

Hello,
Some questions regarding the marker shapes in line graphs.
I have a line graph with two series. The client wants one series to have the diamond shape (black border, white inside) and the other series to also be a diamond but be filled in black.
Is there a way to do this?
Also, the marker shapes appear small in the graph. Is there a way to increase the size of the marker shapes?
Lastly, I can't get the marker shapes to appear in the legend. I have tried setting markerShapeInLegend="true" in the Graph tag but that didn't help. It still just displays the line colour of the series.
We are on version 10.1.3.4.1
Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Hi,
It is impossible to do that because the user query is using query generator. Click the condition button in the quer generator windows. The selection criteria text used the condition.
you can use a custom report instead of using user query e.g. crystal report or reporting services

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.

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.

Marker Shape in Legend - Line Graph

Hello,
I have recently upgraded from 10g Release 1 to 10g Release 2.
I am using a line graph. In Release 1, the data marker shapes show up in the legend. In Release 2, they don't. In Graph.xml, I have set the Graph element to have the attribute markerShapeInLegend="true".
Does anybody else have this problem and/or know of a solution?
Thank you.

Hi Paul,
This is the feature in 11g obiee displaying the Measue heading and dimension value... like u said right Web Sales...and so on.
Here in u case web is the value of dimension and Sales is heading of a measure.
One way is if u are not using any dimension apart from 1 dim and fact u can put measure labels in the group by axis and dimension column in the show in legend section then it will give u only web.
But if u have 2 dimension then we have to put this measure labels with either one of the dimensions in this case heading of the measure wil display.
Thanks

Marker shape not showing up in DVT line graph

Hi,
I am facing an issue where the Marker Shape is not getting displayed in DVT Line graph. In the graph there is only one series, in which diamond markers should appear at the data points.
I am using Jdev 11.1.1.7.0.
Below is the expected result and the result which i am actually getting. Although the data set is different, the diamonds which we see in the first graph are not appearing in the second one(my output).
My code snippet for the line graph is as below:
<dvt:lineGraph id="lineGraph1"
                       value="#{bindings.VarianceGraphVO1.graphModel}"
                       subType="LINE_VERT_ABS" shortDesc="Variance Graph">
          <dvt:graphTitle text="Schedule Variance"/>
          <dvt:y1Title id="y1Title1" text="Variance % Days"/>
          <dvt:o1Title id="o1Title1" text="Cemli"/>
          <dvt:background>
            <dvt:specialEffects/>
          </dvt:background>
          <dvt:graphPlotArea/>
          <dvt:seriesSet defaultLineWidth="3">
            <dvt:series markerShape="MS_DIAMOND" markerType="MT_MARKER"
                        lineWidth="2"/>
            <dvt:series/>
          </dvt:seriesSet>
          <dvt:o1Axis rendered="false"/>
          <dvt:y1Axis/>
          <dvt:legendArea automaticPlacement="AP_NEVER"/>
        </dvt:lineGraph>
Even though the marker shape property is mentioned it is some how not reflecting in my result. Even other types of marker shapes like square, circle, up/down arrow are not working.
Request you to help me fix this issue.
Thanks a lot.
Regards,
Tejas

Try to set seriesSet defaultMarkerShape="MS_CIRCLE" and markerDisplayed="true" like:
<dvt:seriesSet defaultMarkerShape="MS_CIRCLE" markerDisplayed="true">
       <dvt:series/>
</dvt:seriesSet>

Line chart's marker size is not changing

Hi,
I am using Crystal Reports 2008 and trying to change a Line Chart's marker size. The default size is 35, but every time I change it, it returns back to 35 again. Is there a bug in the application?
Thanks,
Al

Hello Al,
You need to turn of Auto Arrange in Chart Expert > Options > Layout
Changing the marker size conflicts with the Auto Arrange so it is not possible to change the Marker size with it enabled.

Multiple symbols for line graph in illustrator

I can't figure out how to change the default square data points in a line graph. When I try to got to Object>Graph>Marker it is greyed out. When I click on a circle symbol and then try to go to Object>Graph>Design, it is greyed out. I am so frustrated trying to do the simplest things in this program. The online tutorials on how to make graphs do not seem to explain the simplest of tasks, only the difficult. Thanks for any help!

Skeptic,
Yes, it's cumbesome, but it's described in Online Help (at least in CS3 and prior):
Draw whatever you want to use for the marker. (It can be a Symbol; doesn't matter.)
Draw a rectangle and send it behind the marker artwork. For a marker on a line chart, the size of the rectangle relative to the marker art defines the scale.So the rectangle can be smaller than the artwork to make the artwork larger, as shown above. The rectangle can be unstroked, unfilled so it doesn't show.
Select both the artwork and the rectangle. Group. Leave it selected.
Object>Graph>Design. In the dialog, click New Design. Click OK.
Black pointer: Select the graph. Object>Graph>Marker. In the dialog, select the Design you just created. Or...
White pointer: AltClick a single marker in the Graph. AltClick it again to "select up" (Illustrator's upside-down selection scheme) to the parent group. AltClick again to include the legend marker. Object>Graph>Marker. In the dialog, select the Design. This way, you can assign different markers to the various lines in the line graph if you want.

Line Graph - Lines

Hi all,
I have a line graph - defined as custom.   The line graph has lines that are not wide enough to be visible from a distance.   Does anyone know how to make the lines wider?
Thank you,
Michelle

Thank you Jeremy. The concerns you listed are valid.
When 12.1 is available and we upgrade the thicker line will be great. We are currently on 12.0.
Unfortunately we have a newer installation of MII.   That means, we are still in the "prove it" stage.   We purchased a huge monitor. (I'm not sure of the size anymore.) That monitor is mounted above the lines on the shop floor. The object is to give immediate information to the line on performance.   The graph shows the amount of "bottles" that go thru the line every 15 minutes. It is automatically updated.   There are 3 lines. One for the upper limit, one for the lower limit, and one for the current produced.   This gives them a nice picture, if only they could see the lines.
I added line marks - they didn't like that because the graph became too messy.   So the solution appeals to me. With the future enhancements to MII we can go back and change the graph later. I'll put it in our enhancement list.
Our production area is very positive on getting something new for themselves.   Our executives get the high level. The people on the floor get the instant information.   I want to keep that enthusiasm going.

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.

Graphing a RUNNING TOTAL on a line graph

So I'm having a lot of trouble putting my data on a chart. I have it all laid out here: files.me.com/redsteven1/glwk4v.numbers.zip
Whenever I try to graph it though I run into a whole host of problems. Namely, that I can't get the values to plot on the chart at all.
Not sure what the problem is... I select A2:G103... and I see the different series (for each Activity) show up in the legend, but nothing is plotted on the chart.
I know that much of the table is blank... that's because I'll be adding to it every day.
Ideally, the X-axis should be time/date.... May, June, July, and August can be the major tick marks. And the Y-axis would be number of hours spent on each activity.
To further complicate things, the chart should really be a running total of time spent on each activity... so if I spend an hour on Activity 1 each day for 3 days... then on the third day I should have a plot of 3 hours... not 1.
I know I didn't work things super well here... hopefully you can figure out what I mean by looking at the linked file : \
Thanks in advance.

I guess that line graph isn't the best one, I would use the Scatter one.
You can't chart your datas as they are at this time.
Every datas are date_time or duration values which can't be charted as is.
Here, I converted the dates from column A into strings
Then I added 6 columns in which I converted the durations into decimal hours.
The original columns are hidden.
The formula used to convert is a simple one.
In H2, I inserted :
=STRIPDURATION(B)*24
Fill to the right
Fill Down
to fill the other cells.

Markers on the line Graph.

Hello,
I am wondering, if it is possible to display line graph with the markers (dots, squares, …) on the line. It looks like markerDisplayed="true" is the parameter to set, but it changes marker Display in the legend, not on the graph.
Thank you,
Irina.

Oracle reports - Line graph

Hello,
I have a few issues with the line graphs (using oracle 10g dev suite R1 - 9.0.4).
1. Unable to make my y axis - a dotted line.
2. Since I couldn't make the y axis a dotted line, I made it a thin line. This thin line looks fine when I run it from the oracle reports builder. but when I genenerate to a PDF file, this thin line becomes thicker.
3. Thirdly, I want to place a dot or something wherever the value changes in the line graph. One option is to add the MarkerText visible="true" to the Graph settings xml file. but this puts the marker text to all the y axes.
I want it only for 1 y axis.
Cheers

Assuming you mean "series" and not "axis", you can control the style, width, and markers using the lineStyle, lineWidth, and markerShape attributes of the <Series> element (in the XML shown in the Graph Settings property) for the series (set of Y values) of interest.
For example, to use a thin, dotted line with circle markers on the first series, but leave the other series with their defaults, you might:
1. Make sure the markerDisplayed attribute of the <Graph> element is set to ="true". Otherwise, no markers will be displayed.
2. For the <Series> element with the id attribute equal to "0" (which identifies the first series), set the lineStyle attribute to "LS_DOTTED", the lineWidth attribute to "1" (in pixels), and the makerShape attribute to "MS_CIRCLE".
3. If needed, set the markerShape attribute of the other <Series> elements to "MS_NONE".
The Graph Settings property might look something like this:
<rw:graph id="CT_1" src="G_YOUR_GROUP" groups="X" dataValues="Y1,Y2">

</rw:graph>For more information, see the "Graph.dtd" file in your "%ORACLE_HOME%\jlib\bigraphbean.jar".
Hope this helps.
