Plotting multiple series on an SVG Chart

Hi,
I am trying to plot multiple series on an SVG Chart. The moment I add a second series, I get the following error:
"SVG Chart error: ORA-20001: line_chart error: ORA-20001: get_data error: ORA-20001: Parse error: ORA-0093".
The graph fails to plot multiple series even for the same queries. The query I use is something like the following:
select null "link", substr(name,7) "Label",value "Value"
from <table>
where
<conditions>
and name in (<sub-query>)
order by name desc
I have previously used an SVG chart to plot multiple series and have never had such problems. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I tried deleting and recreating the chart - doesn't help.
Thanks,
Aswath

If you want to order the data do it via an in-line view:
SELECT *
FROM (
select null "link", substr(name,7) "Label",value "Value"
from <table>
where
<conditions>
and name in (<sub-query>)
order by name desc
)

Drill Down for Multiple Series in a Line Chart

Hello,
I seem to have a problem with the drill-down functionality in a line chart that has multiple series.
I have a line chart that displays the readings of a patient over a period of 1 month. For each day, there is the glucose level reading, blood pressure reading, etc... So, each reading is a different series in my line chart graph.
The basic requirement is: With a mouse over event on the chart, I am willing to display all the data that belongs to that day. The data will be displayed at the bottom of the screen in a small panel. It is very simple to do it when the line chart has only 1 series:
i) Enable drill down.
ii) Choose 'Row' as insertion type.
iii) Fill out the destination field.
iv) Make sure your labels (at the bottom of the screen) get the data from the destination cell.
When there is more than one series, it becomes very difficult. XCelsius will not let me use the same destination cells for different series. So, I will have to use other destination cells. In that case, I will not know on which day is the user on. Is there any way to achieve this functionality?
Let me know if you need further information.

This is certainly possible, but there's a bit of a trick to it (and really hard to explain without screenshots!). There's two halves to it:
1. Write the date that has been selected to a cell (for each series).
2. Write the name of the series that was clicked to some cell (this is the property 'Series Name Destination').
So let's say your three series are Glucose, Blood Pressure and Temp. Have those series names in B1,C1,D1 (with your dates down in column A). Insert a row below the series names (2:2), and then set up your insertion type for the chart as 'row'. The source data (for all three series) should be your list of dates in column a. The insertion cells for the three series will be, in order, B2,C2,D2. Now, depending on which point is clicked in the chart, the selected day will be inserted into one of those three cells. Completely useless unless you know which series was clicked.
So you need to insert the name of the series that was clicked ('Series Name Destination') into the spreadsheet, let's say in F1. The rest is just Excel formulas. The logic is, you can now tell what series was clicked, and go and look up the date that was inserted for that series, then go and look up the row that corresponds to that date. So to get the date that was just clicked, your formula (in F2) would be =HLOOKUP(F1,B1:D2,2,0).
Then a VLOOKUP will get the results from that row of data. For example, if I inserted another row at row 3 (to show my 'result' values) the formula in B3 would be =VLOOKUP($F$2,$A$4:$D$13,2,0).
I hope that makes sense.

Plotting multiple graphs on one waveform chart with dynamic data types

I'm trying to put multiple graphs on one waveform chart and having data agreement errors. I'm wondering if it has anything to do with the fact that dynamic data is being used (I've had no problems with other datatypes in the past). Does anyone know how to correct this problem? I've attached the following .VI. There will be plenty of .VIs on the bottom that won't load, but they are not consequential for this problem.
Thanks!
Brian
Solved!

you could use stacked plots by right clicking on the chart and clicking on the stacked plots and than on the front panek you can put a bundle function on the FP and hook your signals up

How to plot multiple channels in a single chart

HI
My problem is basically offline analysis only.From the given data i have to plot the difference between any two channels.But i have to plot up to 8 differential signals as per users selection in a single graph.Somebody please give some idea how to do this.Thanks a lot.

Got the Help Menu item and select
'Find Examples'
Enter Graph
There are lots of options
Perhaps for graph basics:-
Try the 'XY Graph.vi' sample in the 'Find Examples' menu item under help.
The example shows multiple plots on one chart.
Quote
'Use the XY Graph to display data that is not uniformly distributed along the X-axis. This is particularly useful when displaying data that was sampled at a variable rate.'

Dynamically assign series names for SVG Chart

I have created a line chart with 5 series in it. I would like the legend name for each series to be dynamically assigned (as a value from a field in the database). Is this possible?
Ideally, i'd also like the number of series to be variable too. Is this possible?

Hi,
I am trying to use the code you gave me above (which normally works fine). But when I put it in the query below with 3 ' (3 quotes) it fails.

Issue with min/max when vertical axis assigned to multiple series

Hi.
I have some simple charting code that is dynamically adding LineSeries to a chart as the user requests them from the gui. As each series is added the vertical axis is assigned to the series and then data is requested and assigned to the dataProvider on the series. This is all working fine however I have found that if I add a sceond series after the first series is displayed and assign the same vertical axis to the second series then the vertical axis seems to set teh min/max based only on the second series added and ignores the first series. It doesnt set to the max of both series and so I get an incorrect max set. If I add a 3rd series the same happens again and the first and second series values seem to be ignored and the axis is set based on the last series to be added.
Is this expected? Ive tried different variations of invalidating the data/series/styles to force it to refresh but I always get the same. It does refresh but based on only the values in the last added series.
What is odd is that if I add 2 series at the same time, and assign the axis to both of them and then request data for both and update the dataProvider on both of them the axis is configured correctly based on the max value of both series.
Any workarounds to make it do the right thing if they are added dynamically? Is this a bug or a known "feature"?
Any light anyone can shed would be appreciated.
I need to have the axis assigned to the series directly as I want to be able to use multiple axes. I have found that if I set the verticalaxis on the chart rather than the series then it works fine and sets the min/max based on the combined values of both series.
The vertical axis is just a simple LinearAxis.
Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.
Im using Flex 4.1

Adobe Flex LiveDocs seemed to indicate "Using multiple series in the same chart works best when the data points are in a similar range (such as a stock price and its moving average). When the data points are in numerically very different ranges, the chart can be difficult to understand because the data is shown on a single axis. The solution to this problem is to use multiple axes, each with its own range. You can plot each data series on its own axis within the same chart using the techniques described in Using multiple axes" and that link is here:
http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/3/html/help.html?content=charts_types_11.html
I was going to tae a look at this myself, but the code posted here is quite complex, and I suspect incomplete.
If you refer to that link and still cannot solve the issue, I would try your best to boil down your code to a more simple example still exhibiting the issue, and then post that, along with any data and the simplified main app.
If this post answers your question or helps, please mark it as such.

SVG Linecharts with Multiple Series

I've been trying to get multiple lines/series on a linechart. I have a query which works okay to get the first series. A slightly different query (or the same query, even) makes it barf and give me an error. I'm using HTMLDB 1.6
What's especially irritating is that there's next to no documentation for this thing. The manual and the how-tos give a couple small examples for various types of charts. It's never revealed anywhere what kind of query it's looking for in every type of chart, and the vague error messages and the neat-nonexistant documentation don't help in the slightest. Does anybody here really use this thing for actual development?
Sorry. Frustration aside, is there anybody who has managed to get this to work? I've been trying to get it to work for a few days now, as has a co-worker, and I'm getting nowhere. I might go and try it on my HTMLDB 2.0 demo account and see if maybe this kind of thing is fixed or at least better explained.

Dan,
I used line charts to show trends in report usage in an application I support. Basically the line chart can have multiple series (lines) on it. Each series has a unique query. All series queries are of the form:
SELECT link, label, value FROM table
- 'link' is an URL used for drill down. This could be another page in your application with a details report. When the user clicks on the line for the series, HTML DB takes a branch to this link.
- 'label' is the value for the x-axis. In my case this was a month of the year.
- 'value' is a numeric value to be plotted on the y-axis.
For example if you had a STOCK_QUOTES table the series query to track how Oracle's stock is doing would be:
SELECT NULL link, closing_date label, price value
FROM stocks
WHERE symbol = 'ORCL'
If you wanted to track other software companies stock on the same chart, just add another series changing the literal 'ORCL' to some other value.
Note: if you have more than 15 rows in your series query, make sure you increase the 'Maximum Rows' for the series to an appropriate value.
I hope this helps,
Mike

SVG Chart Cluster Bar Vertical messes up the Series

Hello friends
I am trying to do a Risk chart which is No of Items by Risk Level By Department
So I have a set of series that are set up as follows
select null link, department_name Department, count(risk_id) from ECM_RISK where risk_level = 6 group by DEPARTMENT_NAME
select null link, department_name Department, count(risk_id) from ECM_RISK where risk_level = 5 group by DEPARTMENT_NAME
select null link, department_name Department, count(risk_id) from ECM_RISK where risk_level = 4 group by DEPARTMENT_NAME
select null link, department_name Department, count(risk_id) from ECM_RISK where risk_level = 3 group by DEPARTMENT_NAME
etc.
Now what happens is that if there are no records for that department in any of the risk levels, the department name is not getting pickedup. As also the scale of the graph is wrong and the no of risk items depicted.
The individual query on SQL runs correctly , but the graph is not

Line Chart with Multiple Series

Post Author: JayZee
CA Forum: Charts and Graphs
HI
I am trying to create a line chart with multiple series for trend analysis on CR XI but not having much luck, I thought it would be so simple to do!
My data is provided summarized on the server and is returned as 12 rows:
Month Year1 Year2 Year3 Year4 Year5January 100 80 75 90 120February 85 25 40 25 80etc for the rest of the months
My problem is that I can only get the chart to accept the values to display as a summary and not just as the data pulled back from the server. I have read an article on the support site for Crystal 6.0 but it doesn't seem to translate well into XI.
If necessary I could redesign the table to bring back un-summarized data but that is quite a big job.
Any help greatly appreciated.

In the chart expert, put Month in the 'On change of' box and put each year in the 'Show values' box. This puts the month on the x-axis and plots each year as a line.
Is that what you want?
I did this in CR 2008 using your data in an Excel sheet.

Candlestick chart problem with multiple series

Hello,
I added one mx:CandlestickSeries object and couple additional
mx:LineSeries objects to the chart. All series are represented but
still I have one problem. More series I add - less candles are
becoming of CandlestickSeries data. It seems that there should be
any scaling option for all series in the chart or something like
this, but I cannot find it. I'm still new in Flex Can anyone halp
me with this?
Thanx in advance
marukas

I've added screenshots to get better view of the problem.
Here is chart with addtional series:
Chart
with multiple series
And here nothing is changed except that additional line
series were removed:
Chart
with only one CandlestickSeries
Is it possible to get the same candles as in 2nd view with
addiotnal series added?

Stacked Bar Chart with Multiple Series Sort Question

Hi,
Apex version 4.1.1
I have a stacked bar chart with three separate series, one showing customer effort, another showing project effort and the third showing other effort, summarized by calendar week. The x-axis of the chart is the calendar "week of" date, and the y-axis has a bar for each of the three series. Not every type of effort occurs every week.
When AnyChart renders the chart, the order of entries on the x-axis seems to be dependent both on which series are present in a given week as well as the "week of" date. Weeks with all three series sort in order by calendar date, followed by weeks where just the 2nd & 3rd series are present, followed by weeks where just the 3rd series is present. See this [url http://tinypic.com/r/b9zdt/6] picture of the chart noting the "week of" dates. Note that the months go Sep-Oct-Nov-Aug-Oct.
Is there a way to force AnyChart to sort the x-axis in chronological order regardless of whether there is data for all three series for a given week? I have looked through the AnyChart XML reference but cannot find a way to do this.
Incidentally, I can solve the sorting problem by combining all three series into a single query:
select
null as link,
week_of as label,
sum(customer_effort) as "Customer Effort",
sum(project_effort) as "Project Effort",
sum(other_effort) as "Training, Admin and Other Effort"
from ...But if I do this, I cannot figure out how to have each bar on a given week link to a different detail page, e.g., if I click on a bar representing customer effort I want to link to one page, but if I click on a bar representing project effort, I want to link to a different page. I have had a look at the [url http://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=36648:59:1570983160946101::NO:::] chart examples posted on apex.oracle.com, but cannot figure out how to apply to multiple series in a single query.
Thanks,
Mike

Thanks, Jeff. I did try this but for whatever reason it doesn't make a difference. I think it is because if there's no data for a given series for a certain week, there is no entry in the data set that is sent to AnyChart.
I was able to get around the issue by "filling in" the missing weeks from each data series. To generate the list of "Week Of" dates for a given date range, I used this code:
select
     trunc (each_day) as week_of,
     0 as effort
from (
     select
          (to_date(:p920_start_date,:app_date_format) + 2 - to_char(to_date(:p920_start_date,:app_date_format),'D') - 1) + level each_day
     from dual
     connect by level <= to_date(:p920_end_date,:app_date_format) - to_date(:p920_start_date,:app_date_format) + 1
where
     to_char (each_day, 'D') = '2'This creates an effort entry of 0 for each week within the date range; I use the Monday date of a week as the "Week Of" date. I then union this with my actual data and summarize by week and viola, I get the weeks in order. This also has the benefit of showing a week for which there are no entries in any of the three series.
Thanks for taking a look at this.

I've run into this, too:
Remove the fills property from each ColumnSeries and it'll work.
If you want to use the fills property, you'll have to add your own custom legend code.
From the Flex API:
"If you specify the fills property and you want to have a Legend control, you must manually create a Legend control and add LegendItems to it."

Multiple series in a chart

Hi
I want to create a chart with multiple series, each serie referring to a specific country.
The query below is not accepted:
SELECT null url,s.date_from,s.country,sum(s.unique_players) unique_players
FROM my_table s ...As a workaround I changed the query to:
SELECT null url, s.date_from,
sum(decode(s.country, 'se', s.unique_players, 0)) sweden,
sum(decode(s.country, 'fi', s.unique_players, 0)) finland,
sum(decode(s.country, 'no', s.unique_players, 0)) norway ...
FROM my_table s ...It works well but it is not very flexible, in the case a new country has to be added.
Is there a better way to achieve this in Apex 3?
Thanks
Luis

Luis,
You can chart a variable number of series with a query like the second one you listed, except use "Function returning query" instead of "SQL query". Then generate the column list clause dynamically, one for each series.
There's an enhancement request logged to make this easier.

Multiple series chart with differing dates

Is there a way to display multiple series on a chart when the
data for the horizontal axis doesn't match up? For example:
if data1 (val, date) is (10, 01/05/2008) (15, 02/08/2008)
(20, 03/01/2008)
and data2 (val, date) is (8, 01/12/2008) (25, 02/10/2008)
(30, 03/14/2008)
how would I get the data to display on a multiple series
chart. Right now, I am using a CategoryAxis for the horizontal
axis. If I do something like this:
hAxis.dataProvider = data1;
hAxis.categoryField = "date";
it will show only the series for data1, but not data2.

Thanks for the reply.
That link tells you how to add multiple axis to a chart which
is what I'm doing, but unless you want to have two horizontal axis
on the bottom (which looks terrible) or put one on the top and one
on the bottom (which looks awkward), this solution is not very
good.
The problem is that the data ranges for the horizontal are
the same, but the individual timestamps are slightly different,
sometimes off by only a few hundredths of a second.
To attempt to work around this, I merged the two arrays, but
that seemed to mess up the display of the data.
Is there not a way to just draw the second series on top of
the first without having to lock it to the axis? It seems like the
answer is no when using the standard packages. But is there a way
to override this and get it to draw properly?
