LIne up Legend entries with stacked chart

I have an appliction where on the front panel I need to display anywhere from 1 to 16 channels in a stacked waveform plot. for ease of viewing, I would like the entries in the plot legend to line up with their respective channels in the graphs, similar to the rather crude picture i'm attaching. The hangup in this is I need to be able to vary the number of charts displayed, 16 max, during runtime.
In my mind, one option is to go with subpanels and have a panel setup for each number of channels i wish to display. However, I think this would be easier if it were supported by the Waveform Chart itself. I'm open to any and all suggestions. Thanks!!!

If your plot areas are that narrow you can resize the default plot legend text size to meet the size of one plot window. Like this:
The number of plot legend lines shown can be adjusted by using Create -> Property Node -> Legend -> Number of Rows.
Also you can select which plot will be visible/invisible in any given time by using Property Node -> Active Plot and Property Node -> Plot -> Visible combination.

While evaluating my code please have in mind that I am a LV novice. Therefore sometimes my code might violate some coding rules that I have to learn about myself. But how else could I do that...

Hiding legend entry in line chart

i hide the line series lineSeries
     lineSeries.visible=false;
but its legend entry is shown on the chart.
How can I hide the legend entry to hidden line series?

Hi Asif,
You need to write some ActionScript to acheive this functionality...Its not that simple just as you make lineseries visible=false...the legend item will go
away...You need to explicitly remove and add series...as shown in code below:

Chart - problem with stack

Hello,
Ive got 3 problems with stack plots:
1. In the legend, the first value of table is the last one, why?
2. Always when i remove one value(in this case i turn off button), the last chart is remove
3. When I turn off the second button(rest is on), the plot name in legend is doubled.
Does anyone have an idea what i can do with this?
thanks for any answers.

How do I set default colors for XY chart series (lines and legend)

I am implementing a line chart and need to override the default (caspian style) colors for the line colors and the legend symbols. I'm not displaying the chart symbols themselves as that would make the chart look bad. I've been able to successfully set the default colors for the lines via the CSS below, but cannot find a way to do the same for the series symbols that appear in the chart legend. How do I do this? Thanks.
.default-color0.chart-series-line {
-fx-stroke: rgb(0, 102, 255);
.default-color1.chart-series-line {
-fx-stroke: rgb(0, 255, 102);
...Update:
Figured it out. Need to do the following:
.default-color0.chart-line-symbol {
-fx-background-color: rgb(R, G, B);
}Edited by: 998038 on May 16, 2013 4:09 PM

Here is some css to customize the line and legend colors in a line chart.
/** file: chart.css
    place in same directory as LineChartWithCustomColors.java */
.default-color0.chart-series-line {
-fx-stroke: rgb(0, 102, 255);
.default-color1.chart-series-line {
-fx-stroke: rgb(0, 255, 102);
.default-color0.chart-line-symbol {
-fx-background-color: rgb(0, 102, 255), white;
.default-color1.chart-line-symbol {
-fx-background-color: rgb(0, 255, 102), white;

Charting with stacked hybrid plot - how do I?

Is there a way to stack column and line charts?
I want the same CartesianChart to have bars with multiple
series, and centered above them, I would like lines. I can get the
lines and columns on the same chart, but I dont' want the line
chart overlaid on top of the column chart. I want the line chart to
be above the bars.
LINE DATA HERE (axis from 0-100)
COLUMN DATA HERE (axis from 0-1 million)
Both will have to use the same Horizontal Access though. Does
anyone know how to do this? Do I have to write some custom
DataTransform or something? I would think that making
non-overlapping charts should be easy.

x = 0:0.01:20;
y1 = 200*exp(-0.05*x).*sin(x);
y2 = 0.8*exp(-0.5*x).*sin(10*x);
plotyy(x,y1,x,y2);
axis([0,20,-200,200]);
xlabel('Time (\musec)');
ylabel('Fast decay');
title('Multiple Decay Rates');
How do I write the 2nd Y title to 'Slow Decay'?

Help with stacked bar charts

Help..................
I am definitely missing something.
I want to do something like the attached, stacked bar chart example. This is pretty much
one of the examples.
What I need is for a horizontal chart instead of a vertical. When I right click the legend and
chose bar charts, it only shows vertical. After messing with this for a couple of hours,
I give.
Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

Stacked Bar Graph.vi ‏43 KB

Another stacked bar graph plea for help!
My scenario: I am recording 3ph current values (red, yellow, blue) on multiple circuits for some electrical tests we do.
I want to present this data on a screen that is most visible from a distance, so the approach I have taken when I last wrote the software in Delphi was to have each 3 ph circuit represented by a 3 channel bar chart where the three channels are stacked front to back in order of magnitude. This allowed me to add multiple 3 channel circuits next to these to fill the screen from left to right.
See attached Excel file to make it clear. I hope!
The main issue I see is that the colour of plot needs to move front to back with the magnitude. ie Red is not always the front plot, it is the 'smallest' of the three plots that stays at the front.
Some tests we do, may have 12 x 3ph circuits of this type which fills the screen up and can make it very busy. Rather than having 36 plots left to right, by stacking them in groups of three, I reduce the left to right number to 12 plots. The screen can then be viewed from a distance much easier.
Any suggestions? I am expecting I will need to write my own routine for this, which if I do, i am quite happy to share when complete.
See (and run) the attached LabVIEW code of my progress so far.
thanks Adam

Hmm, no, my 1.5.2 instance logs script responses twice- once to say it is executing and again after the process terminates to say that it ran. The second entry is where any stdout is printed. I don't know of any setting that would turn this off, it has always been there for me.
A typical script response log entry looks like this:
Summary
"response \[Response Title] script triggered by Subscription \[Subscription Title] complete"
Detail
"response complete, completed command /fcsvrbin/\[scriptname.sh] with arguments { 43, 8 } "
"stdout would print here, if there is any"
You probably already tried it, but try filtering your log search for "script triggered" since it can be easy to miss spotting entries on a busy system, and they don't necessarily show up side by side in the logs with the other responses in their respective stack.

Formatting the legend of a stacked bar chart

Hi,
Is it possible to change/edit the legend part of a stacked bar chart right now I am getting the legend as"
[Color Code1]                   Sum of [TableName].Column Name1
[Color Code2]                   Sum of [Table Name].Column Name2
[Color Code3]                   Sum of [Table Name].Column Name3
etc...
and I would like this to be displayed as
[Color Code1]                   Column Name1
[Color Code2]                   Column Name2
[Color Code3]                   Column Name3
Thanks,
ii xi
Edited by: ii.xii on Jan 9, 2012 4:47 PM

Well, the only way to edit that is to select the Legend entry (In Preview Mode Only) > Right-click > Edit Axis Label.
You would need to do this for every Legend entry.

Now my requirement is to create PR with Service Line and an entry in ESLH table (should be filled by SAP automatically). I have been passing the service related/account assigment tables into BAPI but still not working.
Will you please give a solution to create PR with Service Line and also need an entry in ESLH table (its important to my req)?
Also provide some input on Service Line, if possible(How to check Service Line for PR + Account Assignment to Service Line + etc.)?
Note that: If I create PR manually then there have entry in ESLH and hence I can create PO.
Definately the quick solution help me lot...

Post Invoice for Service Entry with many Service line item-MM-LIV

Dear All,
I have a problem to post Invoice for Service Entry with many Service line item. The problem is as follow:
I have created 1 Service Entry which has 5 Service line item in it. Three of the service line item are subject to Value Added Tax (VAT), the others aren't. Then, i wanted to post Invoice for the Service Entry, however, it just display 1 item which amount in total. How can i segregate each service line item in Service Entry thus i can post Invoice for all Service line item with subject to VAT and all service item with not subject to VAT, if just 1 Service Entry created for it ?
Please help me.
Thank You

Hi Ganda,
If you mark the 'service based invoice verification' checkbox in your PO item, your service items will be in your invoice as seperate invoice lines. Then you can modify the taxcodes on service item level.
Kind regards, Dick Hendriks.

Stacked chart with groups

Hi
I don't know whether this kind of chart is possible but perhaps someone can help me.
I want to create a stacked chart with groups e.g. 6 sersies divided into two stacked bars (there are 2 bars per label, each stacked of three values)
Does anyone know how can I do it?
Regards

Yes, but I want to have two bars (each stacked) per label (e.g. Jul-06).

Legends in stacked chart

Only the values in the first vertical column in the stacked chart blocks is displayed in the Legend.
For EX:
Totally i have 5 items in the stacked chart blocks.
My chart has 2 items in first vertical column in the stacked chart,
3 Items in the second vertical column and
all 5 items in the third vertical column.
Now only 2 items displayed in the legend values, rest 3 items in 2 nad 3rd column of the chart is not displayed.
Could any only please help on this ???
Regards,
Manoj

Hi Anshul,
You can display either data value or data label in a stacked column chart by checking the Data Label Displaying Mode option under Format Chart->Data Values.
You can also do the same by checking the same option under Format chart->Area Display->Data Values.
I dont think you would be able to display both in a column chart whereas you would be able to do it in a pie chart.
Hope this helps.

Vertical Stacked chart

Post Author: tacopscym
CA Forum: WebIntelligence Reporting
I am new to the business objects world. I have created a vertical stacked chart. I now need to sort the vertical stacks in a certain format (the one with the highest total in the graph need to be at the top). I am not being able to get to this. I can do this easily in Excel using a pivot table. Another issue I am having is that when the Y-axis values has no entries then I need an empty column displayed. Currently my X-axis has weeks and Y-axis has errors for the week. I am interested in displaying all the weeks (whether they have errors or no errors), by default it displays only weeks that have errors. Any help in this will be appreciated- Thanks.

I believe you are going to have to edit the XML, scroll to the bottom of the Chart Attributes page and select Yes for "Use Custom XML", then you will have to change the chart area x/y/width/height. (you can do the same for the legend as well)

Problems with pie chart formatting - APEX v2

Hi - I have created a region with an SVG Pie Chart and set the CSS to display the three segments as red, yellow and green using one of the examples from a previous forum posting. That all works fine, but I still have two issues with the chart:-
- the legend is displaying too big and is overlapping the right hand region border which looks messy. Is there anyway to force the size of the legend as there is lots of blank space to the right of the labels/values?. If not, is there any way to get the legend to display at the bottom of the area rather than to the side of the chart?
- the pie chart is 3D but the colours are only displaying on the side, not the top. Is there something I need to set to get this to work OK? Current CSS included below.
Thanks Caroline

hi Kishore,
For this we have to change the .pcxml file for the pie chart .This is the path
\OracleBI\web\app\res\s_oracle10\popbin\pie.pcxml

I am not sure whether it will work or not but try it out
thanks,

WebI Horizontal stacked chart formatting issue

I have created a stack chart report and I have labels defined in the X - axis. We have the issue with the gap between the X - axis line and the labels. We would like to know if we can reduce this gap between the axis line and the labels. I have attached the sample image below for your reference.

Not really. I need to have stacked bars grouped. For example, assume you had survey results. For question 1, you had a bar with 20 disagrees, 5 neutrals, and 50 agrees. For question 2, a bar with 10 disagrees, 2 neutrals and 30 agrees, and so on for say 10 questions. This would be your stacked bar chart. Now, say you had information spanning a number of years, 2008, 2009, 2010. What I want is a group of stacked bars (3 one for each year) for Q1, then 3 more stacked bars for Q2 and so on.
This is a combination of the grouped and the stacked bar charts.
