Oracle Graphics Developr's guide/manual

Hi,
I'm looking for a documentation for Oracle Graphics. It's a dessuporrted tool now but we are currently on a platform that is still compatible with the Graphics Builder, and we have a current requirement to include a chart on an existing report (created using Report Builder 6i)
I managed to located a document which contains what I'm looking for on link http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/forms.html ; document A32482–2.PDF- Graphics 2.5 Developer's Guide but it has some formatting issues within the pages, please have a look (eg. page175-176, 239-240, 33-34-38 just to name a few) - especially those with graphics are the main concern.
I've logged an SR to Oracle; they said it is a documentation bug and at present there is no other available alternative. They've suggested a workaround of copy-pasting the entire document to Word and manually removing the extra spaces, but it is still is not quite that workable after I tried it. They've also suggested that I try my luck here on the forums, I hope get more lucky here.
if anybody has another (properly formatted) copy or another document/developer's guide/manual for Oracle Graphics, at least 2.5 version, I would much greatly appreciate it. Thanks in advance.
Eleonor

Hi Srini,
Wow! Thanks for your quick reply. Yes, I have previously seen the document you have mentioned (A73075_01.PDF) but it is more of a library of the built-in subprograms, properties, attributes etc., available on the graphics builder. What I am looking looking for is a guide or tutorial of how-to's in Graphics builder. I've had experience on how to use Graphics builder but it before but it has been way way back in the past (goodness when!) I just need a guide/refresher on how to use it. Thanks!
Kind regards
Eleonor

Oracle Quality User's Guide in Portuguese

Where would I find the Oracle Quality User's Guide in the Portuguese Language?

The short answer: It might not exist; and if it does, I'm not sure how to find it.
The longer answer... I asked a doc group person whose expertise includes translation issues, and here's the situation in summary. Whether a manual is translated, and into which languages, varies among products. Relatively few manuals (as opposed to online help sets) are translated, and often into only certain languages.
The only way you might be able to find out if a Portuguese version of a specific book is available (and I assume you're talking about the Oracle Enterprise Data Quality for Product Data product) is to try a web search on what you expect to be the Portuguese translation of the book's title. (I know, how can you know exactly how the title will be translated if you haven't seen the translated book?) That might lead to some search matches for the book -- that is, if the book was translated into that particular language.
If there is a discussion forum devoted to Oracle Enterprise Data Quality for Product Data, you might try asking there if a Portuguese version is available for the exact title that you are interested in.

Changing legend labels in Oracle Graphics 6

Hello,
i am currently using Oracle Graphics to create barcharts for my reports. My problem is, that i want to change the label used for the shown bars via a parameter. Changing the labels of the X- and Y- axis is no problem with PL/SQL but it seems that the only way to change the legend labels is by using "AS" in the query (e.g. select a_column as LABEL from ...). I really need to change it by parameter.
thx for any help.

Nym,
The only way that I've been able to control the name of a label in regards to graphing is to use the Variable Editor and create a variable off of the column, for instance:
The name of the column from the database is call "Black_Catalog". so I create a variable called "The Black Catalog" and in the formula: =[Black_Catalog]
Then in the graph I replace the field that is called =[Black_Catalog] with my new field. When the legen displays it will show "The Black Catalog".

Calling 6i reports containg oracle graphics in ias 10.1.2.0.2

Hi,
i'm having troubles calling a report containing an oracle graphics chart.
i'm using ias 10.1.2.0.2 and the corresponding forms tools. and the ias 1.0.2.2.2a isuite server.
Compiling and running the forms is not a problem and neither is caling ordinary reports. i.e reports not containing any oracle graphics. So i'm confident that my server setup is correct.
When i'm calling reports containing oracle graphics charts the reports simply hangs.
Consulting the ias server reports queue i can see that status is 'running the report, now executing pre-form trigger' and that's it. status never changes and the report never finishes.
In my ias 101202 home i've set the following environment variables:
ORACLE_GRAPHICS6I_HOME -> E:\oracle\806 which is where my oracle graphics is installed
GRAPHICS60_PATH -> e:\mastra\rep which is where i store my reports and oracle graphics charts
I keep both the .rdf file and the compiled .rep in the e:\mastra\rep directory.
Strange thing is that if i don't include the full path to the oracle graphics component in the report it's not able to find it at runtime. I can see in the reports status screen it complains about not being able to fond the chart.
what parameter should i set so i don't have to hard code the path to the graphics chart?
If i include the full path to the chart it probably finds it because it doesn't complain but now it hangs telling me that it's running the preform trigger. and then nothing happens.
please help me cause im stuck here.
thanks for any input.

Hi Frank,
Our reports are all called from Forms...using RUN_REPORT_OBJECT in the 10g environment. We have hundreds of reports (6i based) that all work fine when run on the 10g app server. The only ones that fail to complete are those that have Graphics embedded. Yet they work just fine when run Client/Server under 6i. On the 10g app server they just run forever/get hung.
If I launch Graphic 6i Builder on the 10g App Server box, I can connect to the database without any problems. And Graphics 6i do run just fine from my 10g forms (converted from 6i Forms) on the App Server. NOTE: My Graphics 6i uses the same tnsmanes.ora and sqlnet.ora that my App Server uses (via a TNS_ADMIN setting in the Windows registry)
Is there something extra special I need to do in the report itself?
Thanks,
John

I was in the beta for about 5 mos, but need to see 1.0 fer real.
I have already done all the video tutorials, and they did look really good.
The trial will help me see what kinda speed I can get with my 64K* ram, 110GB HD, .25 GHZ machine*
The beta 4.1 was pretty slow in some areas, for me.

Oracle Graphics problem

When I run a graphics report in preview mode, the pie chart color slices are correct. When I run the same graphic report to a pdf file, the pie chart colors are not correct.
I opened a TAR and they referred me to a bug# that dosen't exist.
Please help. Jim 202-616-4510.

believe me, oracle graphics is not good to right tool to create a grpah. I had many problems using the tools. Oracle Graphics is really primitive and needs a lot of improvment. every time i have a problem with the tool, i contact Oracle support and they come back with the bug soultion. Any way, a new version of graphics should be out with the next few months, hope it is better than what we have

Oracle Graphics Problem on 3 tier

Hi!,
We have a web based ERP system. I have developed a system which calls oracle graphics from forms 6i. I am facing following problems:
1) When I am using RUN_PRODUCT to call graphics it does not show anything
(not giving any error also) & when I am using OG.OPEN to call graphics it show
the charts but with same color of all pie slies and bars on 3 tier.
2) I have used "User Area" in a map to to call reports on mouse click. There is no effect of mouse click on 3 tier.
However, both works fine on 2 tier.
Can anyone help me to solve the problem?
Thanks & Ragards

The following source is for Forms 9i but also contains hints and tips that are true for Forms and Graphics 6i. Ignore the installation and configuration section because it is Forms 9i related only.

Oracle graphics-- Urgent!

Hi
1. How can I pass a parameter to a form from graphics. The
buttonproc of symbol of the line chart should contain the code.
the parameters are the X and Y axis values.
I'm not able to get the x and Y value for the point.
2. Can I embed a report in a oracle graphics.ie THe report
should be displayed below the chart item.
Thank you
null

Hello,
1. In the DRILL_DOWN tab page of the chart element property
window, there is an option of setting the value of a parameter to
the value of the chart element. Or you can write a procedure for
the chart element to set values of parameters within the graph.
You will have to use OG pll to retrieve the values of these
parameters.
2. You will have to embed the graph in a report if you want to
see report data below a chart.

Any Alternate to use ORACLE GRAPHIC BUILDER through Reports

Hello ,
After long research some option of creating complex graphs does not serve my problem like BI GRAPHS . I want to create graph in such a way that for example I have one view in which trainno, station no, scheduled time and departure time are stored. I want to display a line graph for same train schedul and depart wise. Now I try to create line graph in oracle 10g, there only one single line is displayed for two groups scheduled time and departure time and that also not sorting properly.
In previous of oracle , Graphic builder had good option of creating field templates like line and attaching to line chart. So it there are two groups (Sched and departure time) , than line with different colour use to display separately for both. Now I don't find any way in oracle 10g to plot such type of Graph.
If anybody has option or way than please give suggestion.
Regards,
Prashant

I am not an expert on chart builder, so I don't know how you would access the model and get at the image files.
However, if you have a URL that points to an image generated by the chart builder, you can use the <image> element to display it.
It sounds like to produce these image files, you need to write some application logic. The correct place to put this application logic is probably in a subclass of a struts DataAction.

Oracle BPM Enterprise User Guide

I want to know about the importance of using Oracle BPM Enterprise.Can any one help where i can get the "Oracle BPM Enterprise User Guide" document.
Edited by: user613889 on May 7, 2010 3:16 AM

Here's where you can find all of the Oracle BPM 10g documentation: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E13154_01/bpm/docs65/index.html
Oracle BPM Studio 10g
Oracle BPM Studio is the integrated development and test environment where business analysts and developers can create, document and simulate process models, integrate services, create business rules and logic and create end user interfaces. Projects built in Studio can be deployed to Oracle BPM Enterprise. Although Studio has a small database (Derby) and Tomcat environment, these are only used for rapid testing. Studio's end user Workspace looks the same as Enterprise, but is limited to the number of concurrent users and the Workspace login only has a user id field and no password because it is only used for rapid and iterative testing. As a result, you cannot and should not use Studio's Workspace as your production environment.
Oracle BPM Enterprise 10g
Oracle BPM Enterprise is the production environment. At its heart, it has an engine that manages and executes the business services according to rules in the designed process models. The platform supports high-availability, fail-over and backup capabilities for mission critical processing. The engine is J2EE compliant or can run separately on a standalone JVM. When run on a J2EE application server, the Engines can be clustered.
Work item instance information is automatically persisted in the Engine's database tables as the instances flow through processes.
Orchestrated processes running on the engine are automatically exposed as Web services and executed across both internal and external processes and other applications.
Oracle BPM Enterprise engines are managed through the Oracle BPM Process Administrator Console. This is a web-based client that enables administrators to monitor and administer the Engines remotely.
The Oracle BPM Enterprise engine is exposed via both a Java Process Application Program Interface (PAPI) and a web service API (PAPI-WS).
