Pie Chart -- Text on Axis

Help. I have created a pie chart. The chart has a title at the top and the legend appears to the right of the pie chart. However, my problem is there is "text" that is appearing at the bottom of the pie chart with the name of the data values column name. How can I get that text (subtitle) to disappear. Ex.
O ---------> pie chart with data values showing and legend to the right (okay).
xxxxx -------> text at the bottom of pie chart (do not want this text to appear). I'm not sure if this is
considered "text" or a "label". I just need to turn it off. Help
Thanks in advance!

HI,
While SAP solves the problem , you can do a quick fix by displaying only one either Char or % on pie chart and have a legend to display the other value(i.e normally charecterstic).

Pie Chart Text Overwriting other text

I have a web report on which there is a pie chart. The pie chart has labels that display the characteristic value, and the percentage that it represents (eg Material 1, 33%)
I find that when one of the values is a very small percentage, that the labels appear on top of each other, making both of them very difficult to read.
Does anyone know of a way to fix this so that they don't overwrite each other?
Thanks in advance for any assistance

Overlay a graphic on a Pie Chart, & Rotate text in a Pie Chart

Is it possible to overlay a graphic on a pie chart?
I've tried manipulating the Wrap Inspector, but regardless, when I paste a graphic on topic it drops below the pie chart and deletes one segment of the pie.
In a related pie chart question, is it possible to rotate the text to face into the central axis, think spokes in wheel (vs. the default horizontal). I can rotate the pie chart in about 3 dif. inspectors, but no luck here...and my texts is just a little too long to fit nicely in the default (and too hard to read if I reduce the font size).
Thanks

I assume you want to have a graphic that sits over the chart, and that you see the values underneath? Something like a shine, worn texture or logo?
If you are wondering what happened to your particular 'missing slice' open the Graph inspector and select that section. Chances are you have changed the tiled image which was assigned to that particular piece of the pie chart.
To overlay a graphic, draw a circle shape. In the graphics inspector assign an image fill to that shape. Choose tiled or scale to fit as required (a png. file with transparencies will show the underlying values, as will setting the opacity of the circle)
Turn the wrap off for the circle (It sounds like your pie chart may be set to 'moves with text' instead of 'locked to page') And then place it overtop of the pie chart. Resize to fit. Since this is now 'locked to page' and above the pie chart, any movement of the pie chart means you will have to reorient your overlay. To avoid this, set the pie chart to Locked to Page as well.
At this point you can set the wrap for the pie chart so the text moves around it if you like. Your overlay and the pie chart will remain in sync if they are both fixed to page.
Regarding your text question, no. You can't set that. What you can do is use a numerical, letter or symbolic value and include a legend manually to indicate the true names of the portions using a text box.
(I've seen someone with a pie chart whose segments were labeled with seven words, the last two of which were the only ones that changed. I suggested using the unchanging portion as the graph title and the changing portion as the individual slices. Not sure if that would apply to your project.)

How to display PIE chart Axis label horizontally?

Hi
Currently my PIE chart axis label is displying in 2 lines. How make it to display in one line?
Thank you

hi,
For Pie chart there will be no X-axis or Y-axis terms generally.
Label/Text could be one of the following.
Title?
or Sub Title?
or Foot note?
Right Click -> Format Title . Reduce the font size such that it fits into a single line.

Pie Chart -- legend texts are cut (with "...")

Hello Experts,
when I*m using pie charts with displaying the legend, longer texts are cut (e.g.: "220/35V 60W yellow...")
What can I do to show the complete text?
Thanx a lot
KR,
Raimund

Good Day Nics,
the cuts are due to the size of the pie chart. you can resize your pie chart for the legends to show properly.
Kindly tell me if im missing something.

Pie chart legend summary bug, weird text being printed

Hi guys, I created a simple report with a Pie Chart on VS2008 and on my computer the chart legend displays all items perfectly but when I deploy it on our web server the legend summary, which is always 100% doesn't say "Total" anymore but a weird text, have you seen this before? Here's a sample.
On my machine the chart legend is the following:
ITEM1                                35.0%    63
ITEM2                                38.3%    69
ITEM3                                26.7%    48
Total                                  100.0% 180
On the server:
ITEM1                                35.0%    63
ITEM2                                38.3%    69
ITEM3                                26.7%    48
eTotal:1_n_pseudoloc_   100.0% 180

Have not seen this before, but do apply SP1 on your dev computer:
https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100009351512008E/crbasic2008sp1.exe
Recompile.
And use SP1 runtime:
https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100010010692008E/crredist2005_sp1_x86.zip
See if that helps.

Never heard of Axis in a pie chart. What exactly are you trying to change?

Pie chart with both text and value

Hi,
I want the pie chart to contain both the text and value how is this possible when I look at the optiond for chart I was able to select only one thing at a time both not both the things at a time ,please let me know how is this possible
Thanks
Priya

Hi Priya,
this should be possible. In the Chart Designer in the properties of the Categories you must edit the Format string to e.g. "$Label$br0.00" (show the label, make a line break, show the value with 2 decimals). For more info regarding the format string see note <a href="http://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1064448">1064448</a>.

The requirement is to give the viewers an interactive page where in they can make various combinations and can compare, cross examine data according to thier choice.

The site is hosted on a red hat linux server. how can a connection to the excel spreadsheet be made or is it possible to read from the text file if the entire data is exported to a text file.
Is there any ready made tool/code available which can be customised according to the need.
Thanx in advance

I certainly wouldn't pay for the graphing package at the previous link. check out http://www.object-refinery.com/jfreechart/ for a free, open-source, much better looking graphing package.

Hi Kai,
If I want to create a bar chart with DP that looks as follows:
Material Total
 A 5
 B 10
 C 7
 D 4
Overall result 26
Then How do I get the labels A, B, C, D in the Y axis as the name of the "category" and also all the series represented in diffrent color say 5 (red), 10(yellow), 7 (blue), 4(green). I am not able to get these two criteria met?
what I am able to achieve is either
1. (A, B, C, D )are shows as the name of the category in the Y-axis, and (total) on X-axis-- then it will have only one series (ie total)....Hence cannot give different colors for the bar representing the category A,B,C,D
(or)
2. (material) shown as the name of the category on Y-axis and (total) on X-axis and the series will have (A, B, C, D) in different colors but the name of the series will be shown anywhere inside the bar and not as the name of the category....b'cos the name of the category will be (material)
so how do i get the ......labels A, B, C, D in the Y axis as name of the "category" (instead of material) and also all the series represented in different color say 5 (red), 10(yellow), 7 (blue), 4(green).
Please let me know if this is possible with the chart wizard in 3.x or 7.0 WAD. I tried and so far no luck!
Earlier in 3.0B it was possible by right clicking every data point to change it's color.
Thankyou,

Add Custom Color to pie-chart

I have requirement to add specific color to each element in pie-chart.
Below is my code for pie-chart with static json.
Instead of the default colors given by the viz charts, I want to have red, green, orange and blue color in the pie-chart.
Has someone changed the colors successfully?
var oModel = new sap.ui.model.json.JSONModel({
     businessData : [
               {Country :"Canada",revenue:2410.87, color: "red"},
                {Country :"China",revenue:638.29, color: "green"},
                {Country :"France",revenue:487.66, color: "orange"},
                {Country :"Germany",revenue:170.23, color: "blue"}
var oDataset = new sap.viz.ui5.data.FlattenedDataset({
         dimensions : [ {axis : 1, name : 'Country', value : "{Country}" } ],
         measures : [ { name : 'Revenue', value : '{revenue}' } ],
         data : { path : "/businessData" }
var oBarChart = new sap.viz.ui5.Pie({
          width : "80%", height : "400px",
          plotArea : {
                   'colorPalette' : d3.scale.category20().range()
           title : { visible : true, text : 'Revenue By Country' },
           dataset : oDataset
oBarChart.setModel(oModel);
oBarChart.placeAt("sample1");
Thanks,
Shashi

After lot of permutation and combination, I figured it out how to change the color.
Changing colorPalette to 'colorPalette' : ['#00B050','#CCFF66','#FF0000','#FFC300'], it worked
var oBarChart = new sap.viz.ui5.Pie({
          width : "80%", height : "400px",
          plotArea : {
                   'colorPalette' : ['#00B050','#CCFF66','#FF0000','#FFC300']
           title : { visible : true, text : 'Revenue By Country' },
           dataset : oDataset

Need help to make a Pie Chart

I am trying to draw a pie chart for the Uptime Report.
I have the Following table definition.
create table downtime_detail ( env_code number, down_start date, down_end date );
insert into downtime_detail values (1,to_date('26-JAN-2008 02:00:00','DD-MON-YYYY HH24:MI:SS'),to_date('26-JAN-2008 03:00:00','DD-MON-YYYY HH24:MI:SS') );
insert into downtime_detail values (2,to_date('26-JAN-2008 02:00:00','DD-MON-YYYY HH24:MI:SS'),to_date('26-JAN-2008 03:00:00','DD-MON-YYYY HH24:MI:SS') );
insert into downtime_detail values (2,to_date('01-FEB-2008 02:00:00','DD-MON-YYYY HH24:MI:SS'),to_date('03-FEB-2008 03:00:00','DD-MON-YYYY HH24:MI:SS') );
insert into downtime_detail values (2,to_date('15-FEB-2008 02:00:00','DD-MON-YYYY HH24:MI:SS'),to_date('15-FEB-2008 03:00:00','DD-MON-YYYY HH24:MI:SS') );
insert into downtime_detail values (2,to_date('26-FEB-2008 02:00:00','DD-MON-YYYY HH24:MI:SS'),to_date('28-FEB-2008 03:00:00','DD-MON-YYYY HH24:MI:SS') );
Now the Below Query returns me the values val1 and val2 on the basis of which I need to draw a Pie Chart.
==========================================================
select round((DOWN/TOTAL)*100,2) val1 , round(100-((DOWN/TOTAL)*100),2) val2
from
(select sum((DOWN_END - DOWN_START)*24) DOWN from DOWNTIME_DETAIL where ENV_CODE=2 ) a ,
(select ((sysdate - to_date('01-JAN-2008','DD-MON-YYYY')) * 24) TOTAL from dual ) b
VAL1 VAL2
3.64 96.36
==========================================================
Can someone help me try do this ?
Actually I tried but I couldnt put my custom query to get this Pie chart. Or if there is any other better approach please let me know.

nikhilskamik,
I believe all that you are missing in your sql is a NULL. Below is the help text for creating a Flash pie chart.
Specify the SQL query that will populate your chart, for example:
select null, ename, sal
from emp
Alternatively you can write a PL/SQL function return a SQL query, for example:
begin
return 'select null, ename, sal from emp';
end;
Your query should then read:
select null,round((DOWN/TOTAL)*100,2) val1 , round(100-((DOWN/TOTAL)*100),2) val2
from
(select sum((DOWN_END - DOWN_START)*24) DOWN from DOWNTIME_DETAIL where ENV_CODE=2 ) a ,
(select ((sysdate - to_date('01-JAN-2008','DD-MON-YYYY')) * 24) TOTAL from dual ) b
