Reverse Chart Label Column

Hello,
I have a numbers spreadsheet that contains search engine rankings. The lower the number the better the result (#1 is highest of course) and I am trying to figure out how to display the data in a line graph where the left hand vertical labels go from lowest to to highest. They way it is by default, as rankings improve the line goes down making it appear as if performance is dropping.
Thanks!

I would reverse the ranking scheme so that #1 becomes the largest numbered item. Once plotted, you can overlay the X-Axis labels with a scale that has "1" at the top and however large a number you want at the bottom.

  • Numbers 3D Column chart labels

    3D Column chart labels do not work.
    If a label is displayed horizontally, it over-writes the next label and there is no way to turn the label vertically.

    The chart will move allowing you to see the labels.
    There is no way of moving the labels as you can in the 2D chart.
    Best.

  • Format % in chart label when Data Label Option is 'Show Series and % value'

    I am using:
    OracleBI Discoverer 10g (10.1.2.2)
    Oracle Business Intelligence Discoverer Plus 10g (10.1.2.54.25)
    I have a report that returns 2 columns 'Repair Status' and 'Count' The graph is a pie chart and I have selected the Data Label Option as 'Series Label and % value'. The percents displayed in the label have no consistent format. Sometimes 2 decimal places, sometimes 4 decimal places. I want the chart label to consistently display the % in the chart label with no decimal, i.e. 96%. How can I accomplish this?

    Hi,
    Where you selected 'Select Label and % Value', there is a button at the bottom, Format Data Labels. In there, there is a Number tab where you can play around by selecting Currency, Percent, etc. Have you tried this?
    Cheers.

  • Column Chart with Columns That Vary in Width

    The subject is Column Chart with Columns That Vary in Width.
    I have been concentrating on the column renderer. Unfortunately,
    the renderer class receives control with access to limited
    information. Mainly, what it gets is pixel counts that measure the
    dimensions of the rectangle that ends up being a column. There is
    no straightforward way to send width information to the renderer. I
    can, however, change the color of the column. I thought of encoding
    the width in the height, but that distorts the actual height,
    potentially causing the chart scale to be computed incorrectly.
    Also, the encoding is hard to reverse once the height in
    transformed by an unknown and varying scale factor so that the
    column fits on the chart. I love the way the column chart looks. I
    only want to alter the width of each individual column. Since I am
    drawing each column, if I knew the widths, I'd be done by now. Do
    you have a better approach? Thanks in advance.

    You need three ColumnSeries. Set the dataProvider of each directly (instead of setting it for the ColumnChart) to something like this:
      var cars:ListCollectionView = new ListCollectionView();
      cars.list = inventory;
      cars.filterFunction = function(item:Object):Boolean {
        return item['category' /* or whatever your category field is */] == 'cars';
    Do something similar for bikes and trucks. You can do something like this if you don't know the number of categories as well, but it's rather trickier (and left as an exercise for the reader).

  • Chart Labels displays correctly in Visual Studio Preview but shows incorrectly in Report Manager after deployment

    Hi,
    We have built a SSRS report which contains a chart and a tablix. The chart labels (Male and Female) is displayed correctly in the Visual Studio Preview but in the Report Manager it displays as Female and Female. 
    These are the following things which we have tried to fix it:
    Deleted and redeployed the report
    Restarted the Report Server
    Checked the report caching. There is no cache for this report.
    We use SQL Server 2012 and Visual Studio 2010.
    Any help is very much appreciated.
    Thanks,
    AJ

    Hi AJ,
    Per my understanding that you have two label "Male and Female" which display correctly in the Visual Studio 2010 but not correct in the Report Manager, right?
    As you have mentioned that you have checked the report caching, please make sure you have set the  "Do not cache temporary copies of this report" in report manager and also check to delete the rdl.data cache file under the project if you have
    which path like:
    \Visual Studio 2008\Projects\Report Project
    If possible, please try to create an new report the same as this one to have a double check.
    If you still have any problem, please feel free to ask.

  • Chart Labels In Apex

    So I'm trying to create a chart that groups an aggregate function by the primary key. On the label, I cannot figure out how to query a lable that shows the primary key and the name of the customer that is located in a different table. I'm learning how to develop in Apex so I'm using the sample database right now. The following query adds up the order total by customer but I want the label to not just say the primary key (customer_ID) but also the customer last name (Cust_last_name) located in the demo_customers table. Here is the query:
    select null link, CUSTOMER_ID label, SUM(ORDER_TOTAL) value1
    from "LEARNING"."DEMO_ORDERS"
    group by CUSTOMER_ID
    Also I built this query with the query builder. Can someone explain the purpose of the "Null Link" in the select clause? And how can I get the percentages to show in a pie chart?

    Hi, welcome to the forum. Please access your Control Panel and update your handle to something a bit more personal than 1001737.
    When you said:
    I want the label to not just say the primary key (customer_ID) but also the customer last name (Cust_last_name) located in the demo_customers table You were half way there, you just need to join your current query to the demo_customers table to retrieve the customers last name and use that as the label on your chart.
    Try this version of the query in your chart series; I find that a pie chart is best for this purpose:
    select
       null link,
       cust_last_name label,
       round(sum(order_total/total.tot),
       2) value  -- determine percentage of all orders 
    from
       demo_orders,
       demo_customers,
       (select
          sum(order_total)tot
       from
          demo_orders) total -- sum all orders 
    where
       demo_orders.customer_id = demo_customers.customer_id 
    group by
       cust_last_nameYou asked
    Can someone explain the purpose of the "Null Link" in the select clause?Placing NULL here states that you are choosing not to allow the action of a link when one of the chart labels is clicked. See this site for some excellent charting examples and further explanation:
    [url [http://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=36648]Sample Charts, Maps, Gantts and Trees
    And how can I get the percentages to show in a pie chart?Percentages need to be calculated; to add the *%* to the label, set the Postfix within the Display Settings of Chart Attributes.

  • Chart label font color

    Is it possible to change the color of fonts in chart labels
    (not axis labels)? The default black does not stand out well
    against some colors.

    Are you referring to data tips?
    css style declartion can be used to change the text
    color.

  • Obiee 10g chart label size

    Does anyone know how to change the size of the chart labels??
    I'm trying to show some labels that are automatically trimmed (the label gets like this in the end ...), in the chart properties I can't find where I change this, probably this is a default number of chars per label?

    It seems that leaving the truncate value by default, in the format text from Titles and Labels properties, was the problem. I set it to a large value and my problem was solved.
    Hope it helps anyone.

  • Can You Edit/Resize/Move Chart Labels in Pages '08?

    I cannot get a seemingly basic page layout technique to work: editing pie chart labels. There appears to be no way to add a soft line break, adjust the text box, move the data label. You can't add a two-line title, either.
    I am hoping that there's something I've overlooked. I handle communications for a 40-person nonprofit. I was so excited about the new iWork suite and the potential for replacing Office. I really liked the functionality of Pages and was on the point of recommending it. Then I worked on one of our reports. And got stumped by the charts. The pie charts look sharp. The color palette is better. But I can only seem to edit data labels in the inspector. Pages Help didn't help. It says I can select a label location (see below), but no pop-up exists or at least none that offers Middle or Below Right.
    Can anyone help me solve this riddle? Working with charts doesn't seem like an advanced feature. I must have overlooked something, right?
    from Pages Help
    For pie charts, you display values as percentages by choosing Show Pie Values as Percentages from the Data Point Settings pop-up menu on the Series pane. To display the data series name for a wedge, choose Show Series Name from the Data Point Settings pop-up menu.
    Select a label location from the Data Point Settings pop-up menu (for example, Middle or Below Right).

    Hi Justin,
    You should be able to manually move the X-Axis labels in the Preview Mode.
    Go to the Chart Expert > Options tab > Uncheck the 'Auto-arrange' option.

  • Powershell Excel Chart: want to plot chart by columns

    I have the following Powershell code to create a chart:
    $range = $wb.ActiveSheet.usedRange
    $range.EntireColumn.AutoFit() | Out-Null
    $chartType = "microsoft.office.interop.excel.xlChartType" -as [type]
    $wb.charts.add() | Out-Null
    $wb.ActiveChart.chartType = $chartType::xlColumnClustered
    $wb.ActiveChart.SetSourceData($range)
    $wb.ActiveChart.HasTitle = $true
    $wb.ActiveChart.ChartTitle.Text = "Chart"
    The code creates the chart but it plots it by rows instead of columns (see
    Office KB ). I can change this in Excel manually but is there a way with Powershell to output the chart in columns by default?

    Hi,
    Perhaps setting xlColumns for the PlotBy property will be helpful:

  • Add label column in applescript

    I'm using snow leopard at the moment and this is a section of the script and this works, i just need to add the column label into the window.
    open theFolder1
              tell front Finder window
                        set properties to {current view:list view, position:{0, 0}, bounds:{0, 100, 400, 500}, toolbar visible:true, sidebar width:0}
                        set text size of its list view options to 10
      close theFolder1
              end tell
    I've tried adding the line
    set visible of column label column to true
    but I get the error
    error "Finder got an error: Can’t make label column into type integer." number -1700 from label column to integer
    Can this be done?
    Many Thanks
    Matt

    Hello
    As far as I can tell, visible property of Finder > column class is broken. E.g.,
    tell application "Finder"
        tell Finder window 1
            set current view to list view
            tell its list view options
                --return columns -- for test
                set column id label column's visible to true -- [*1] NG
            end tell
            --update target -- no effect
        end tell
            [1] This should work but does not.
                The "visible" property is set to true but it has no effect in list view.
    end tell
    A workaround would be to use GUI scripting as follows. Tested under 10.6.5.
    * In order to use GUI scripting, you need to enbale the option: System Preferences > Universal Access > Enable access for assistive devices.
    tell application "Finder"
        tell Finder window 1
            my show_label_in_list_view(it)
        end tell
    end tell
    on show_label_in_list_view(fwin)
            reference fwin : reference of target Finder window
        tell application "Finder"
            activate
            tell fwin
                set current view to list view
            end tell
        end tell
        tell application "System Events"
            tell process "Finder"
                set view_options to a reference to (window 1 whose subrole = "AXSystemFloatingWindow")
                set was_open to exists view_options
                if not was_open then
                    tell menu bar 1's menu bar item 5 -- View
                        tell menu 1's menu item -1 -- Show View Options
                            click

  • Feature Request: Control Text Orientation on Chart Labels

    I notice that chart labels will automatically rotate 90 degrees counterclockwise when there is not enough space to display them vertically.  However, I would like to be able to control this behavior so that I can make vertical labels when my charts are larger.  A simple toggle option would be great.

    In the Alerts tab of iChat preferences, select Video Invitation from the Event pop-up menu. Then select the Run Applescript checkbox and select Auto Accept.applescript from the adjacent pop-up menu.
    Granted, this doesn't give you password authentication, but I don't believe anything is available for providing that capability.
    Hope this helps.

  • Label column in metadata display always on left

    I just downloaded the new pp cc 2014 and opened up my project file.  In the project panel metadata display bar I cannot click and drag either the "label" or "name" column.  I would like the labels to be on the right side of the file names but cannot click and drag them like the other metadata fields.
    Any help will be greatly appreciated.  I am sure it is a simple thing that I am missing.
    Thank you for your time.

    This was an intentional change in PPro CC2014. The position of the Label column is now locked to the left of name.
