Linked line charts
I have another question, I hope this makes sense.
I am making two line charts - one line in each chart. I plan to have in one fex file (is this then called a dashboard?). These charts will be side by side and both share the same XML file.
1. When the cursor is in the chart area, can the cursor be forced to follow the line on the chart and show the different tooltips as the cursor moves along the line/data points?
2. Can the cursor - which is an arrow, be made into cross hairs in the chart area?
3. If the cursor is forced on the line of one chart, can the curson position (as cross hairs) be shown on the second chart as both charts use the same XML file. And vice versa.
Thanks.
Hi,
1. Cursor is moved by user - only by user in any direction, so you can't do anything with this. But you can create a vertical line and show any data in crossing. Like there http://extra.amcharts.com/editor/line/
2. Yes, it's possible. http://extra.amcharts.com/editor/line/
3. Yes, it's possible to bind such lines between several charts.
Hope it's helpful.

Hi Friends,
I am trying to create a Line Chart based on CalMonth, where I want to show no. of SalesOrg denoted by different lines separately according to their monthly sales.
Please help.

JatinHi,
To create chart this is the process..
1. Before you begin publishing a chart, you need to specify which chart type ( Line chart in your case ) you want to display. You can determine how the data provider is to be built by using the class of the chart type.
2. Select an existing query or design a new query with which you can generate a suitable view of the data, that is, a suitable data provider.
3. Start the publishing process and create a new Web item of type Chart.
4. We recommend configuring the properties of the chart Web item as follows:
○ Expanded hierarchy nodes should be hidden.
○ Totals should be suppressed.
○ If you want to swap the data providers in the chart, you should assign the Swap Display Axes property to the chart. The columns and rows are then swapped automatically when the chart is generated. You do not need to change the view on which the chart is based.
5. When you edit the chart, the Web Application Designer or Web Application Wizard first shows the default setting, that is, a column chart.
○ Firstly, format the chart using the wizard so that the most important settings and the number of displayed data series and data points correspond to your data provider (see also Formatting a Chart Using the Wizard). Assign the required chart type to the chart and format the chart as required.
○ All chart elements that you can format are displayed in the list of properties on the right of the screen. You can modify the properties as required here.

The number 1 request of our schedulers is the ability to show a link line from a milestone on one summary swimlane to a milestone on another summary swimlane. We frequently do executive schedules and show swimlane interrelationships is important.
Yes, I know that you can manually draw a line on a Gantt chart, but that graphical object is hard to control if you change the timescale, add or delete summary lines, or expand a summary line.
I am really fighting hard to keep us from creating a disjoint schedule architecture where the presentation schedules are in another tool, like Fastrac, Visio, or PowerPoint. Whenever we allow people to have a disjoint architecture it always ends up
with people slaving their time to the presentation schedules and the data in the integrated schedule environment atrophies.
We currently have an ability to generate superb executive schedules right out of MS Project, but this lack of swimlane link lines is killing us.
ChrisHello Chris
The is nothing out of the box to do his for you. You may be able to hook up Vision to create swimlanes, but as you indicated it is very hard. OnePager Pro is an add-in for Project that may work for you better

Hi Everyone
I don't know if this is possible or not, so I will describe it. I have a column in a table called Filing. There are currently three values in it ("Abuse", "Neglect", "Voluntary") and each record has this populated. I also have
the below slicer for the column also.
I would like to add a fourth value called "Abuse/Neglect" that would identify instances where both an Abuse and Neglect petition was filed, which is a subset of the Abuse and Neglect records in the Filing column.
My question is, is it possible to create a line chart that has the 4 Filing possibilities: "Abuse", "Neglect", "Voluntary", "Abuse/Neglect" as the Series/Legend in the line chart?
The problem is that there are records that are more than one category: Abuse or Neglect records can also be Abuse/Neglect.
PaulHi Paul,
According to your description, there is a column with the values ("Abuse", "Neglect", "Voluntary") in your table, now what you need to is that add another value "Abuse/Neglect" in this column, and then use it
as Series/Legend in the line chart, right?
In this case, you can add calculated column to your table based on your logic. A calculated column is a column that you add to an existing PowerPivot table. Instead of pasting or importing values in the column, you create a DAX formula that defines
the column values. The calculated column can be used in a PivotTable, PivotChart, or Power View report as you would any other data column. Please refer to the link below to see the details.

When you setup a line chart, the LABEL portion of the SQL query becomes the X axis value on the line chart. When there are multiple series on a line chart, each series is its own distinct line. If the series has a LABEL that is not yet on the chart, it adds that label to the x axis at the end of the axis. If the new series has a LABEL that is already on the chart, then it places the Value on that existing place on the x-axis. This Label is also used in the Hint portion of the chart.
So lets compare the number of Sales per day of a Department across a length of time, say 3 months. So, on first working day on Jan dept A has 31 sales. On the second working day of January thay make 35 sales and so on until March 31. Our company doesn't work on weekends so we won't have sales on those dates. Dept B has their numbers for the same dates.
We setup a series for each month (Jan, Feb, March). Then we place the total number of orders for each date on the graph and connect the dots! Great! But wait, the more months I add, the shorter each line gets on the graph. What if we were comparing 3 years worth of data instead of 3 months. The x-axis would have 600-700 values instead of 60-70 values. Oh my.
What if we make each series of data its own line over the same scale? That way each month shows in the same space with the first day of the month at the left and the last day of the month near the right. Sounds good. But wait, we are now making up a scale. And when we do this, the Hints on the data points become meaningless. I want to show the actual date value in the hint but have the line over my custom X-Axis. What I need is an additional field that I can use to add to the Hint portion of the chart. Obviously, this would require using custom xml and a custom data element, but is this even possible given the constraints of the SQL syntax?

I need to thank you for the direction on the substitution variables reference. That will be a major help.
However, i must correct a statement (underlining is mine)
So, if you switch to Custom XML and find the <tooltip> tag and add {%SeriesName} after the existing {%Name} entry, you end up with the _"day of the month" (which is your value)_ and the Series Name value, which is January - so, "1 January"This is a common misconception that the numeric value on the x axis represent the "day of the month" , when in fact it does not. You logically cannot use the day of the month for this type of axis. Why not? It is because weekends are excluded. So, one month may begin on a Friday. If that were the case then the 2nd of the month would be a Saturday, which would work for a single series of data. But what about when you add in the next month and it begins on a Tuesday. Well then, if you use the day of the month as the value, the 2nd day of the second series actually gets plotted after all the days of the first month.
The solution is that you have to generate a common arbitrary scale for all series of data. When you do that, you lose the date values.
I have tried to illustrate all of this by adding to the existing examples in the link provided above. Some other odd behaviors of using the day of the month as the x-axis value can be seen as well. I have also implemented the suggestion of adding the {%SeriesName} tag to the Hint via the custom xml.

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:
[Click here for the example image|http://img44.imageshack.us/img44/3444/grapha.jpg]
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.

I have Apex 3.1 . I have created a 2D Line chart with for different series (so there are 4 lines on one chart). I also have a Legend on the left side next to the chart to label whatr each line is for. In my query for those lines I have the Name for the Legend as all CAPS but it shows up as first letter capital and the rest lower case. Is there a way to force it to all upper case?
The second question I have is that underneath the legend I would like to have some type of text box were I can write a couple lines to help explain what is going on in the graph. Is there a way to do that?You basically have only a couple of options here:
First, turn off the labels and possibly turn them into Hints. They wouldn't show on the chart, but when the user held over the data point, a tool tip would appear showing them the valuable.
Second, adjust elements of the chart. What you are really looking at here is that your data set is causing this specific issue and not the charting engine or anything like that. You could try to manually change the axis max and min to get more spacing, or you could adjust the height of the chart to get more spacing, but this may not be a viable option. You could have one set of labels above the plotted line and another set of labels below the plotted line that way the values do not overlap with anything. However, from a conceptual standpoint, it will be difficult to determine in code which line should have values above and which should have values below. When your data set changes, you may end up with labels in the wrong place if you hard code where they are at.
The current XML reference can be found at: http://www.anychart.com/products/anychart/docs/xmlReference/index.html however, that is for anychart 5. I'm looking for the link to the earlier versions...
You can use this to create custom xml where you can adjust the position of the labels.
Finally, you do not want expand the height of the chart between two points on the Y axis. That would change the structure of the chart and the visual properties of the chart and the shape of the data would be askew. You cannot do this for good reason. You can though use a logrithmic scale. In most cases though, this is not a practical solution. Data sets need to have very specific characteristics in order to be able to merit a logrithmic scale. Most queries require a simple linear scale.

i need to implement a line chart where users can click on an area of the chart and highlight it, i have serveral questions regarding how to do this:
i added a mouselistener to the chartpanel, i can get the points with e.getTrigger().getPoint(), but I need the points associated with the graph point, is that possible?
i also need to highlight an area of the line chart, I have no idea where to begin, will i be able to change the background of a specific range of points?

Showing one data point on a line chart - X-axis label placed away from its actual position
Hi Guys,
In line chart, i used CircleItemRenderer to show single data point. It shows correctly if it is single data point. But the x-axis label placed away from its actual position. Right now it displayed left most position where the line chart starts. I need to move that label straight of that datapoint where it plotted. Please see the screen shot attached with this post.
In screen shot, x-axis label "Jan" displayed in left most position.
And how can we show the datatip for single datapoint. At present, we can't able to see the datatips also with single datapoint.
Can any body help me to fix those two issues.I figured out a way to customize a single datapoint in a line series. The solution is at this link:

Help - SVG Line Chart - ORA-20001 line_chart error Parse error ORA-00911
Gurus,
Need help.
I am trying to plat multiple series in a SVG line chart but am repeatedly getting line_chart error eventhough SQL queries work perfectly in sql workshop/sqlplus etc. How do I get past this error.
Sample queries I am using to plot line chart are
select link, col1, value from (select null link, col1, col2 value from xy);
select link, col1, value from (select null link, col1, col3 value from xy);
xy is a table with three number columns col1, col2 & col3.
Thanks in advanceTry taking the semicolon ";" off the end of the SELECT statements.

I have a chart region - Flash 2D Line chart with two series based on different tables, both with dates along the X axis
and a figure that represents hours up the Y axis. The idea is for two lines to be displayed on the same graph so they can be
easily compared.
series 1
select null link, END_DATE label, PROJECTED_HOURS Projected_hours
from "E_LOGBOOK"."TEST_PROJECTED"
30/07/2009 700
09/08/2009 800
27/08/2009 9000
series 2
select null link, LIFING_DATE label, ACTUAL_HOURS Current_Hours
from "E_LOGBOOK"."TEST_ACTUAL"
30/07/2009 800
09/08/2009 1000
27/08/2009 12000
When I run the chart with the data above it displays as I would expect, the dates label in chronological order along the bottom with the Correct value plotted for each series.
However if I insert a row into the LIFING_DATE table (second series) so it contains additional data for the 14/08/2009
30/07/2009 800
09/08/2009 1000
14/08/2009 1201
27/08/2009 12000
And then re run the chart this last date and value displays to the right of the existing dates so we have 30/07/2009 09/08/2009 27/08/2009 then 14/08/2009 along the X axis.
I would have expected the new data to fit in the existing range so that 30/07/2009 09/08/2009 14/08/2009 27/08/2009 would display along the bottom.
I am an oracle forms programmer new to APEX (and html, javascript,XML etc) trying to prepare a demo to my manager of what we can do with apex so any help appreciated.
If possible is there a solution without using Third party apps or bi publisher.
Thanks PeteHi Andy,
Thanks for your quick response. If I'm correct in understanding what your saying is that with 2D Line charts that have two series in order for them to display togethor then the label must appear in both series.
I've had a bash using your sql for the 1st series and modifying the second series.
Series 1
SELECT NULL LINK,
X.THE_DATE LABEL,
Y.PROJECTED_HOURS VALUE
FROM
(SELECT END_DATE THE_DATE FROM TEST_PROJECTED
UNION
SELECT LIFING_DATE THE_DATE FROM TEST_ACTUAL
) X
LEFT OUTER JOIN TEST_PROJECTED Y ON X.THE_DATE = Y.END_DATE
ORDER BY X.THE_DATE
07/30/2009 700
08/09/2009 800
08/14/2009
08/27/2009 9000
Series 2
SELECT NULL LINK,
X.THE_DATE LABEL,
Y.ACTUAL_HOURS VALUE
FROM
(SELECT END_DATE THE_DATE FROM TEST_PROJECTED
UNION
SELECT LIFING_DATE THE_DATE FROM TEST_ACTUAL
) X
LEFT OUTER JOIN TEST_ACTUAL Y ON X.THE_DATE = Y.LIFING_DATE
ORDER BY X.THE_DATE
07/30/2009 800
08/09/2009 1000
08/14/2009 1201
08/27/2009 12000
This is a great improvement the series 2 now displays fine and all the points for series 1 are plotted correctly but it seems like the null value prevents the joining of the coordinates in this series. All the points 700,800 and 9000 are displayed correctly but the graph line only joins 700 and 800.
Any further ideas? Thanks Pete -

ORDER BY in line chart with more than 1 lines
Hello,
I created a line chart and added 3 chart rows. The x-axis shows the calendar week, which should be ordered.
It works perfectly with only one row, but if I add a 2nd or a 3rd row and execute it, the chart shows nothing and stays blank.
If I delete the "ORDER BY KW" for each row the x-axis is mixed up.
Here is my SQL:
select null link, KW label, SUM(SNDG) value
from "TBL_FB_SNDG_FRTTR"
WHERE SEND_KZ = 'Z'
group by KW
order by KW
Can anybody help me?
Thanks so much,
LISAI found a solution:
- create a VIEW which is ORDER BY KW
- use this VIEW instead of the table for the chart
- remove the GROUP BY
Now the SQL:
select null link, KW label, SNDG value
from "VIEW_FB_FTTR_SNDG"
WHERE SEND_KZ = 'Z'
Before I tried it by using the GROUP BY and it did not work ... why it works without it - I don't know. ;-)

JonHi Jon
A few thoughts come to mind:
1. Do you have anything tyhat might effect Dynamic Visibility of the chart?
2. Do you have a component which would move blank data intot he chart area upon generating the preview?
3. Can you create a new line chart, link the same bindings - does that preview?
