Axis Field filter only appearing in Legend of Pivot Chart

I was referred here after posting the following on the Office Excel user forum (answers.microsoft.com) I hope I provide all you need, but of course I can provide further details if needed. I am on Windows 7 using Excel 2010.
Okay here goes! (thanks in advance for any direction you can provide)
I was creating a PivotChart where I wanted to be able to filter the chart based on the fields I dropped into the "Axis Fields (Categories)" areas section of my PivotTable. This was working fine until I added the filters as slicers, decided
I didn't like them, and deleted them. Now when I try to view the filter boxes, they will only appear as part of the legend. I do not want to show the legend as it has too many values. I would like to revert to the original behavior of showing the Axis Field
Buttons at the bottom of the chart, where they appeared originally (Without being associated with the chart legend).
Anyone know how to restore this behavior?
It works this way on other chart types, like line and bar. But it no longer works on the type of chart I wanted to use which is a Pie chart. I have opened new instances of Excel and tried to create a Pivot Chart Pie chart and get the same results:
the axis fields are associated with the chart legend, instead of being available independently.
Any help that can be provided would be appreciated
Thanks!!

I guess you may want to let the Pivot chart shows like the screenshot below:
If so, you need to add a new column(Equal to the field which you want to put into the AXIS field) to source data, then in the Pivot Table, put this field to the FILTERS .
This was working fine until I added the filters as slicers, decided I didn't like them, and deleted them
I don't think this operation you did would change any behavior. Perhaps you can upload this file to a file sharing site and then share the link with us.

Report filter in Pivot Chart neither showing nor updating on a mac

I have created a report in Excel for my company that has some pivot charts on one sheet. The pivot tables underlying these charts have report filters that work perfectly on a pc. However a colleague who is using a mac, cannot see the report filters in the
chart and even when a new filter is selected in the pivot tables themselves, the chart does not update. Has anyone experienced this?
According to http://www.annielytics.com/blog/excel-tips/excel-bug-in-pivot-charts-on-the-mac/ there is no fix for this, but I hope there is some way to make use of this basic and important functionality in some way.

Hi,
In this forum we mainly discuss questions about Excel for Windows, as in your question the problem is the function doesn't work in Excel for Mac, I suggest you post the question in Office for Mac forum:

No MS Office apps after Security Update 2007-009 1.1 (10.4.11 Universal)

On launch all MS Office apps do a "optimizing font menu performance..." at which point they start displaying error messages that "The font [e.g. Adobe Caslon Pro Bold Italic] is corrupt and should be removed. OK". You get an error message font by font for pretty much all the fonts on the Mac.
I haven't taken the time to let it go through the entire list of fonts to see what happens, as it's quicker to launch Word, etc. on a PC and get back to work.

Hi Andrew,
Office will return all kinds of error messages for fonts that aren't really damaged when cache files are corrupt.
Close all running applications. Remove the following files. The tilde (~) indicates your home account.
~/Library/Caches/com.microsoft.browserfont.cache
~/Library/Preferences/Microsoft/Office Font Cache (11)
Next, go to the /Library/Caches/ folder and delete the subfolder:
com.apple.ATS
Always immediately restart your Mac after removing cache files.

From looking at the build it looks like the web part is building correctly but the application isn't passing validation, I have no idea why since it is the default app, I've made Office Apps on previous machines without a problem.
Any help would be much appreciated and also let me know if I can give more info!

Hi mngfinney,
>> From looking at the build it looks like the web part is building correctly but the application isn't passing validation, I have no idea why since it is the default app, I've made Office Apps on previous machines without a problem.
I’m trying to reproduce your issue but failed.
Here is my steps:
#1 Install Microsoft Visual Studio Community 2013
#2 Install Microsoft Office Developer Tools for Visual Studio 2013
#3 Create a new Apps for Office project and rebuild
According your error message, the failed step is ValidatePackage, I suspect it is an environment issue, but I cannot identify the root cause basing on the information you post.
Have you tried to re-install the Visual Studio and Microsoft Office Developer Tools for Visual Studio 2013 or test it on another machine with Microsoft Visual Studio Community 2013?

Jeffrey

MBP Cycles Through the Graphic Cards when MS Office Apps Load Templates

I am preparing my MacBook Pro mid-2010, running Mavericks, for my girlfriend. I created an admin account for her and deleted mine, as well as my old user files. But now, when opening MS 2011 apps (Word, PowerPoint, Excel), while loading the the template gallery, the computer starts cycling between the integrated and Nvidia graphic cards many times, making the screen flicker and the process takes a long time. I have gfxCardStatus and it sends tens of notifications to OS X, which keep popping up on the screen. The video card cycling also happens while selecting 'File -> New from Template...'. If I disable the Automatic Graphics Switching, so only the Nvidia card is active, loading the templates is very fast (but this is not a solution, really).
I reinstalled Office 2011, updated it to version 14.3.9, but it did not help.
This was not happening before, when I was using the computer from my account (and neither happens on my late-2013 RMBP). This phenomenon is very frustrating when opening and using the MS Office apps and I will really appreciate your help to fix this.
Thank you.

Anyone, please?
I noticed that the switching back-and-forth happens only in MS Word and MS Excel, as MS PowerPoint and MS Outlook are supposed to permanently use the the discrete card anyway. To reiterate, the switching between the graphic cards happens only while loading the templates in MS Word and MS Excel (when the program starts) and is very annoying, and it sometimes even crashes my gfxCardStatus, too.
I hope someone could please suggest some ideas. Thank you.

Win 7 64 bit, office 2010 64bit, acrobat 9.5.4 / pdfmaker does not show up in office apps

I do not get the Adobe add-in in any of the office apps, nor do I get the covert to pdf or combine pdf selections when I get the menu from using the right click on the file. I did used to get these options. I have done a repair, I have also tried the command solution, nothing seems to work. The add-in are not in the add-in menu in the office apps.

You won't - Office 2010 isn't supported by Acrobat 9 and never will be.

Updated OS X Mavericks and now USB ports and MS Office apps won't work. How do I fix this?

I updated my MacBook Pro (mid 2012) to OS X Mavericks 10.9.4 and now my USB ports and MS Office apps won't work. What do I do to fix this?

What system version were you running before you updated to 10.9.4? Another 10.9.x or something earlier?
What version of Office? 2004, 2008, or 2011?
Were you aware that Office 2004 does not run on recent versions of the system?
When you say your USB ports do not work, on what are you determining that?
Were you aware that Mavericks does not display external disk volumes by default?

Mounting a network share via Applescript or Automator causes errors in MS Office apps

If I connect a network share using an automated process, either using Applescript or Automator, though the share shows up on the Desktop and I can open it and view the various folders and files, MS Office apps including Powerpoint, Excel and Word are unable to open the files. Each gives a slightly different error message. In Excel, it looks like this:
In Word, it's:
In Powerpoint, it's:
BUT, if I connect to the server share manually (using Cmnd-K in Finder), all files and folders are properly accessible. I cannot see any differences between the shares connected by the two different means on the Desktop. They have the same name, are the same size, etc.; in short, everything about them seems identical. I even took screen shots of the Get Info page from one of them connected by the different methods:
"home" connected by Automator:
and connected manually:
Does anyone have any ideas as to why this is happening or how to fix it?

I had the same issue. After upgrading kernel to 3.4.5 today the cifs share mounted with original fstab settings. I believe it was caused by this bug:
kernel changelog wrote: The double delimiter check that allows a comma in the password parsing code is
unconditional. We set "tmp_end" to the end of the string and we continue to
check for double delimiter. In the case where the password doesn't contain a
comma we end up setting tmp_end to NULL and eventually setting "options" to
"end". This results in the premature termination of the options string and hence
the values of UNCip and UNC are being set to NULL. This results in mount failure
with "Connecting to DFS root not implemented yet" error.

Install Acrobat X Standard silently while Office Apps are running

Is this possible? I have not had issues with previous versions but when I push this through SCCM to run silently, a popup still appears indicating that any open Office app and IE need to be closed before installation can continue. Acrobat 9 would install even if other apps were running. Am I missing a parameter or a Customization Wizard setting?
Thanks in advance...
--Joe.

Thanks Sandeep.
I am looking in the Dialog section and see the CloseApps_Warning. This appears to be the popup box, but I want the box itself supressed, and for the installation to continue even if the apps are running. When I look in the AppsInUse section, I assume the Ignoreable column is what needs to be changed, but all of the apps that I mention in the original post are listed there with a 1 (TRUE?), so since they are ignoreable, I would think that this would supress the popup warning...
The installation needs to truly be silent, like Acrobat 9.
Thanks.

Updating Acrobat X when Office-Apps are running

We want to update our clients, which already have installed an older version of Acrobat Professional 9.x with ADOBE Acrobat Professional X (10.1.0). This action must run silent with no user interaction.
I have written a script which kills all running processes using acrobat.exe and close all open PDF-files, also in IE. Then the Acrobat-MSI is started using a customized MST (including Serialnumber) with the parameter /qn. This script is mandatory launched by SCCM where the program-option “Allow users to interact with this program” is NOT set.
If a Office-application like PowerPoint or Word (with the Acrobat Plug-in) is running, the script fails (with 9.x of Acrobat the same worked fine and without any errors…).
Any ideas how to silent update an existing installation of Acrobat with Acrobat X when Office-Apps are open (won’t kill them)?

Hi Vinod
Thank's very much for your answer. In the meantime I found the article
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/868930?tstart=0
too. It's pity that's no more possible to do a silent install of Acrobat even Office Apps.are running. Therefore I have to kill all of them and to disturbe all users by there daily work.

How to rename a filter in a pivot chart

Hello,
I am trying to create a pivot chart that has filters. I add the fields for the filters to the report filters list. I would like to change the text displayed on the filter button like I can for the legend and values. The report filters section does not enable
the Value Field Settings dialog box like the other options do. I've looked in the toolbar to see if there is another way to change the text displayed, but can't find an option, so I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction.
Thank you
Tracy

Hi Tracy,
It seems the PivotChart report doesn't allow us to remane the filters name. One workaround is we can rename the column name what you want in the PowerPivot data model, and then add the filters to the PivotChart.

Pivot Chart X-Axis Values

Hi
I generated one report using pivot char. In pivot chart row page i added datetime and time field.
In my chart x axis should be display time label only. But values should be group by Date.
How to set x axis time value only in my chart.
If i removed date from row page the value will be wrong.
Thanks

Hi,
You can retain both the datetime and time field so that your group by date option doesnt get effected.
When it comes to display..To have only time value in the X axis heading as well as Scale labels. Please follow the following steps.
1. Heading: Pivot table View : Axis titles and labels : Change the title
2. Scale Labels: Pivot table View : Axis titles and labels : Labels : Format : Truncate : 6.
By Truncating the labels. You may get two dots in the end of each label. But hope this may help you.
Regards,
Amrutha.

Pivot charts customization

Hello,
I have some questions concerning charts/pivot charts :
1- Is it possible to cusotmize the data labels of x-axis like this :
on my x-axis, I have the number of the month and the name of the month (so I see 1,January 2,February ...), and I would like to only see the month name (I need to keep the month number) ... I have seen nowhere something to do that. Is it possible ?
2- Concerning vertical bar charts, is it possible to "concatenate" the values ? I mean to do the same thing as an area chart but with vertical bar :
if I have for measure1 a value of 100 and for measure2 a value of 40, I would like to see a vertical bar with a maximum value of 100 but inside in a different color the values from 0 to 40 for measure 2 ?
Thanks in advance for your help.

Thank you Venkat for your answer.
1- In fact I need the 2 fields in order to sort correctly my x-axis because even if in the repository I say that my month name has to be sorted by my month number, in my chart it doesn't function.... in fact the problem is stranger : if in my request I sort by month number, my chart doesn't follow this order -> on my x-axis I have 7, 8, 10, 1, 2, 4 (= month numbers) so the month name can't be sorted correctly.
The only solution I have found, is to use a pivot chart, like this I can order by month number and so my month name follow. I could hide the month number in the pivot table but not in the chart table ... my question comes from this problem.
I can't use the substring in the criteria, because if I hide my month number, the sort won't be done correctly. Is it possible to use this solution directly in the chart options ? (I haven't seen where).
But I just have seen, that a number can be treated as a month name and this solves my problem.
Thank you very much for your help.
