Reverse value order horizontal axis keynote chart

Hi
I am trying to create a chart that shows rankings (so a lower number is better), so I want the low number to show the highest column. So I guess the zero should be at the top of the Y axis. Does anyone know how to invert the values on Y to show zero at top and max value at the bottom?
Thanks

Yes we get a lot of requests to do it that way but it just completely confuses viewers. However, if you want to deliberately confuse your viewers create custom lables.
However, the most effective and the easiest way to display a rating scale thats understood is:
1 star for least and 5 stars for best, creating the chart in that fashion creates this:

How to make values by the axis of charts hidden?

Hi,
VC has the ability to hide axis and the frame and etc. However the values by the side of the axis remains visible. Is there any visibility condition I could use to hide all the values? My end result would be only the line graph, without any figures shown.
Please guide me.
Thanks.
Terry

VC doesn't support any . But there is a way, i dont know if its acceptable ?
Add a form to the iView and add a PlainText to the form , change the form background to white.
Now switch to layout mode and stretch the PlainText in such a way that it covers the values in horizontal/vertical. Drag the FORM over chart axis and adjust the edges in way that it covers only the axis values.
Hope you can visualize what i described above , even i never tried the above but I guess should help you in hiding the Axis Values

Reverse the order of Legend in Column Chart

Hello All,
Hope all is well. I tried to find way of doing it .... I am currently getting my legends in order ... but I wanted to reverse it ...can it be done ?
I can put simple text as legend but probolem is I have show/Hide series on and hence it wouldn't work ?
Anyone ?
Thanks in advance,
Sam

Hi,
Since you are looking after reversing the Legends Only..
I.g your column Order is A,B,C With their correspodingin values in the cells A1:C2
Just change the order Map C1->D1, B1->D2, A1 -> D3 and with the values as well...
This is only way if you want to reverse the order of legends..You can set any properites in the column char or if that matter any chart .There is no such property..
I hope this helps......
If you find that is done thru some other ways please do let me know...

Hide values in Stacked Horizontal 2D Column chart

Hello. I have created a stacked flash chart, and everything is good except one thing. The values and name of each stacked column is written within the bars of the graph. I have played with all of the variables and can't seem to remove them. I have a legend so I know what the colors are, and the values are listed on the axis, so I don't need the text on top of the actual columns. Plus, they overlap eachother. Any ideas on how to remove this?
Thanks.

*Ignore the astrix's in the code. I had to enter that so the text wasn't formatted in OTN.

I created a stacked vertical chart, and it doesn't superimpose text over the bars, which is good... but if the values exceed the axis max val that I defined, the chart changes size (which the horizontal chart doesn't do). It looks like depending on which one you choose, you simply have differing uneditable options.

Y axis max ignored for horizontal stacked bar chart (SVG)

G'day,
I'm using the standard SVG horizontal stacked bar chart (multi-series). I have set the Y axis maximum value but it is ignored - bars are plotted to their maximum height.
I've had no such problem with vertical stacked bar charts.
We're running v2.2.0.00.32.
Is this a known bug?
Regards,
Chris.

I don't understand why you are soying it is not possible.
Actually I think it is and quite easily but maybe i missunderstand the question.
But anyway, here is what I would do:
In the spreadsheet, you can calculate the percentage of each status per project:
     Completed     Pending     Partially completed     Not Started
Project 1     78.10%     6.46%     10.51%     4.93%
Project 2     51.01%     2.62%     39.21%     7.15%
And then select these data for the stacked bar chart. Here you get the graph you are looking for.

How to give individual horizontal axis label to two stacked bar of cartesian chart

I have a cartesian chart showing no. of xyz and no.of abc for a particular period of time. i.e. two bars corresponding to xyz & abc for Jan, and then again two bars corresponding to xyz & abc for Feb, and so on. I have used label function to give label to horizontal axis such that labels look like "xyz abc (nextLine) Jan" ,"xyz abc (nextLine) Feb".
But the issue is that the label is not centre alligned to the respective bars, i.e. xyz is not coming under xyz bar and abc is not coming under abc bar. the whole label's alignment is somewhere in between the two bars on x-axis. And i want to have label centre alligned to their respective bars, i.e 'xyz' should be centre alligned to 'xyz' bar, and 'abc' label should be centre alligned to 'abc' bar, along with the time period value. I have tried giving space in between "xyz" and "abc" but the problem occurs when data varies.They again don't seems centre aligned. I want x-axis label for each bar along with the categoryaxis's category field.
So,is there any way to achieve such functionality??

Could you post a screenshot of your current output and maybe a mockup of the desired output?

Break for Horizontal Axis Labels in OBIEE 11g Bar Chart

Hi all,
I have a vertical bar chart created in OBIEE 11g. The horizontal axis (x-axis) is a compound of Scenario, Year, and Month. The chart width is already long enough so it cannot be made any longer.
The chart looks like this (the label of horizontal axis is staggered):
___llllllllllllll_________llllllllllllll_________llllllllllllll_________llllllllllllll
___llllllllllllll_________llllllllllllll_________llllllllllllll_________llllllllllllll
___llllllllllllll_________llllllllllllll_________llllllllllllll_________llllllllllllll
___llllllllllllll_________llllllllllllll_________llllllllllllll_________llllllllllllll
Actual Feb 2012____________Actual Apr 2012
___________Actual Mar 2012_____________Actual May 2012
How can I force the labels for the horizontal axis to be broken into 2 lines (or even 3 lines), so that it will look like this:
___llllllllllllll_________llllllllllllll_________llllllllllllll_________llllllllllllll
___llllllllllllll_________llllllllllllll_________llllllllllllll_________llllllllllllll
___llllllllllllll_________llllllllllllll_________llllllllllllll_________llllllllllllll
___llllllllllllll_________llllllllllllll_________llllllllllllll_________llllllllllllll
___Actual________Actual________Actual________Actual
__Feb 2012_____Mar 2012_____Apr 2012______May 2012
Any advice? Thanks a lot!

Hi Stewart,
I could not try this yet, but how about 'Enabling the Contains HTML Markup' for the columns for Heading and including a '</br>' tag at the end of the name.
Ex: Column - >Properties -> column Format -> Column Heading -> Enable Contains HTML Markup -> Column Heading's suffix =less than symbol /br greater than symbol (Oracle forums is even break the line too!! ;) So included the text)
Hope this helps.
Thank you,
Dhar

Chart horizontal axis show whole year

Hi All,
How to display whole year month as horizontal axis even if no data? for example, currently I have data for FY13 up to Jan 13, no data for Feb 13, Mar 13, Apr 13, May 13 and Jun 13 yet, in the chart it will automatically showing horizontal axis from July 2012 to Jan 2013, but I want to show horizontal axis from July 2012 to June 2013, if not yet data, line stops.
Thank you,
Ling

Hi,
Apart from the option mentioned above, you can also create an right outer join in the BMM layer of the RPD.
This is only recommended if the data expected by you is the same in all the reports using this combination of the tables.
Thanks,

Number: chart: set the horizontal axis (x-axis) crosses at

When creating a chart in number, how can I set the horizontal axis (x-axis) crosses the y-axis at the point I want it to be? In other words, when I create a chart, the x-axis is automatically set to be at the bottom, but what if I don't want it always to be at the bottom?

If you want the axis line somewhere else, you can draw a line on the chart using the graphics tools, having deselected the option for an automatic Axis line.

Waterfall Report / Dates on Horizontal Axis

I need to create a waterfall report and I have dates on my horizontal axis. For some Reason I cant lay out the data in order to order service dates and Posting Dates in such a way that my vertical axis labels are service dates, and my horizontal
axis are accounting posting dates - The values for bars in the chart should be a calculate percentage - or value -
(I do know how to add a secondary Axis! :))
Does anyone know how to do this in SSRS 2008R2?
KDW

Hi siera_gld,
Based on my understanding, you want to order [SRVC YRMO] field on the horizontal axis and [Post Year Month] field as a series within a chart, right?
If so, in your scenario, you can design the report like below:
Otherwise, please provide report design and expected results for our analysis. If possible, please provide some screenshots about expected chart.
If you have any question, please feel free to ask.

Horizontal Cluster bar chart

I am tasked by my PHB to produce a horizontally-stacked bar chart, the horizontal axis is for simple numbers of events, the bars are types of events. It should also have a negative 'reflection' (see drawing below) There is no Z axis. I have successfully generated this as a vertical stacked bar chart (very simple) and I think a simple rotate 90 degrees right would do it, but I can't find one.
It should look like this, ignoring the dashes:
######## ######## Event 1, Value 8
----###### ###### Event 2, Value 6, etc
Any ideas or workarounds welcome!

EDIT Post to refer to a horizontal cluster bar chart which is what I really want
Edited by: mansfields on Dec 3, 2008 2:44 PM

The horizontal equivalent of the vertical stacked bar would be a horizontal stacked bar, which is there on the menu for me to see. As said in my previous post 'what I am after is the horizontal equivalent of the vertical cluster bar'
To repeat what my requirement is, I have a group of sales people who have five measures each against them, and I can already graph them thus:
6 5 4 3 3
but I want to graph them this way, like 90 degrees rotated to the right:
6 ######
5 #####
4 ####
3 ###
3 ###
I think this would be called a horizontal cluster chart, and there is no option on the list that is called that.
Hope this makes it clearer, and thank you very much for your time and effort so far.

EDIT
From the online books section - "you can only display clustered bar charts in vertical format". That sorts that out then.

Horizontal Axis X doesn't cross at $0

I have a column chart with negative values. I need to have a clean design of the dashboard and i took off all horizontal gridlines
In Excel charts you have an option to show your X Axis at 0 value on the chart, but it looks like we don't have this option in dashboard charts.
Does anyone knows any creative solution how to show the Z Axis at 0 value???
Thank you.

Hi Alex,
Try changing your scale in the 'Behavior > Scale' tab to "Manual" scaling. You will need 2 formulas for the min/max.
A = rounddown(min([range of all values]),-4)
B = roundup(max([range of all values]),-4)
These will give you your lowest and highest values being plotted, and round down or up to the nearest 10,000.
In the Divisions section below that, bind "Size of Division" to the following formula:
(B - A) / 4
Then in 'Appearance > Axis' tab change show only major grid lines, and change them to be the same color/size as your horizontal axis. You should get something similar to the attached result. Slightly different than what you're looking for, but the closest you'll get without custom graphics/layering multiple charts.

The actual age(months) values is up to 240.5 months. So this
xml is kind of too long to post. ;)
Anyways, the goal is to present this data into a line chart
with the elements:
-age(in years) in horizontal axis;
-the values of P5,P10,P25,P50,P75,P85,P90,P95 in vertical
axis.
The values are plotted so well in the chart and so is the
vertical axis. The problem is in displaying labels in the
horizontal axis. Primarily, I made use of CategoryAxis but the
labels are not displaying at all. And then i utilized LinearAxis
and created a labelFunction renderYears(). However, I noticed that
it takes a different value for the month. Why is it that the age
values taken by LinearAxis is the index instead of the month value
in the xml? Say, the age month value in the xml is 24, the value it
evaluates is 0, then if the month value is 24.5 it takes 1, so on
and so forth. How can LinearAxis takes month as the value to be
evaluated in the labelFunction? Please help....

Sort Time Axis in Charts :

Hello,
I have a simple Lines Charts were i need to show value on X axis with Text of the month But Data need to be
sorted according to the month number.
i created an Alert in the table but when converted on charts alert is not applied.
How could i show text of the month in charts and Sort it poperly :
Thanks for your answer,
Regards

Hai VIERM01
There are three type of sorting:
1. Ascending order sort
2. Descending order sort
3.custom sort
The Ascending order sort and Descending order sort are the system defined sorts , The Custom sort is user defined sort.
The custom sort is what ever the end user required to arrange in order to need A report.
if custom chart not possible for your column chart. first make a table and arrange in order to month as per monthnumber (Right click menu -
>sort -
> custom sort ) then Right click -
> turn to -
>column chart...
All the best
