Scale in Charts

Hi,
I want to set the scale of X axis based min value of the fact....
Lets say i have an analysis where fact measure values are all in between 85 and 100. So for better visibility i wanted the scale to start from the same. This should be dynamic as going forward it could be 60 and 100 etc.
I am using obiee 11.1.1.5
Thanks and Regards,
Krishna Prasad

This shud be simple...Chart properties has an option for Axis scaling to 'Zoom to data range'. This will make use of lowest data value and zoom it to good visibility and comparison. Just edit chart properties -> axis scaling -> and select Zoom to data range.
This shud solve

Logarithmic scale in Charts - please clarify your prior answer

I have seen this CRVS2010 Beta2 - Logarithmic scales in Charts in the forum.
I don't think the question was clearly answered as I have a graph open in the 2008 Crystal Environment not Visual Studio and
I see Time Scale, Ordinal Scale and Numeric Scale.
My boss tells me that Logarithmic scale was in the older versions such a 8.5 .
What happened to it. Is is available and I just don't see it...??

Hello,
Moved your post to the Report Designer forum.
What that post indicated, because it was in the .NET SDK forum, is that to access the Chart Options is not available through our report engine. Nothing has changed, we've never been able to access those features in an application you write.
The Charting dll is supplied to us by a third party company called 3D Graphics. For what ever reason either 3D removed it or there were problems reported by us with it and it was removed.
If you want it back add your suggestion to the Idea Place, top right corner of this page, and if it gets enough votes PM's will look into it.
Thank you

Adjust time scale in chart

Hi,
I am trying to write a VI that can adjust the time scale in a chart. Wired 2 number controls for the x.scale.max and x.scale.min. With only these two controls, the display flashes. Had to add another button control to only read the two number controls to be read once at a time. But the display still flashes back to 0 when updating, even briefly.
Wondering if there is an elegant way to control the time scale without the extra button or even a better way.
Also would love to know if there is a better way to control the y-scale.
Are there examples that illustrate controlling of x-scale and y-scale programmatically?
Please see the attache VI.
Thanks,
Rut.

Thanks for the replies.
To use the Event Structure, I have to make lots of changes on the real program. This VI is only a test on the scaling. The mechanic change did work better.
I de-selected the Auto Adjust Scales from Adavnced. But the flashing is still present.
The X Scale button is still needed. Without this button, ie, the X Scale.Range:Maximum and X Scale.Range:Minimum controls are directly connected to the corresponding properties, the display flashes all the time (please see the attached VI without this button; the previous VI has this button). With the button to ensure only one time control, the flash is short and acceptable.
My question is whether there is method that I don't need the X Scale button at all and only need to have some property combination that works properly. Or I have to live with it. Thanks.

Logarithmic Scale For Charts

With Bar Charts, I seem to remember in earlier versions (that XIr2) there was an option to use a Logarithmic Scale - so that high maximums would not result in very low maximums - but I am unable to find that option now. For example, in one chart I have ranges from 1 to 500 - I don't want the 500 to result in the 1 not registering on the chart risers.
Thanks for any assistance!

Please re-post if this is still an issue or purchase a case and have a dedicated support engineer work with you directly:

Problems with auto-scale vertical charts when change time zones

I have built an application that utalizes Vertical Strip Charts. Basiclly, XY Charts that are filled with 100 points of data each loop cycle. To get the Time portion of it I use the Get Dat/Time in Seconds Function and then typecast it to a double. I have built the application and installed in on several PC in my same time zone no problem, but when I send it to someone in the UK on GMT time the strip chart does not update correctly. The scaling is off. The interesting thing is the most recent time on the chart is correct and is updating correctly, but the time at the top of the graph is not correct. Any suggestions or thoughts would be appreaciated.

Can you post a copy of this application, or an example that would demonstrate this? If you change your timezone on your computer to UK's timezone and restart LabVIEW (which is necessary for the change to take affect in LV), do you see this behavior?

Invert Chart Scale without set Flipped or Properties Window

There are a way to Invert Scale on Chart Plot without set the property Flipped programmatically or set the option inverted on properties window?
I was created a executable program in labview and in any part of code exists a property Flipped and the properties window are not acessible. But one program user
make the graph sliding from the right to the left, fliped.
The are any combination of actions with mouse and keyboard to make the scale inverted? There are any combination of property values to do this?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I know how to invert the scale but I do not want to invert the scale.
Nowhere in my code I am inverting the scale. Neither the properties window is accessible to the user so that he can do.
But some user of my program could inadvertently inverting the scale and I can not understand how he did it.

Value axis in WAD Chart

Hello Experts
I am using a Chart web-item in a WAD web template. Now I have set up the value axis and the sample data property of the chart with a minimum value = -500 and max value = 3000. However, when I execute the web template on the portal the value axis show a strange behaviour with a max value = 0 and min value = -250000.
Has any one encountered a similar problem?
Looking forward for your help.
Thanks

Y-Scale for I16 Data Type

Hi,
I am using analog DAQ to aquire +/-1V and streaming to binary file on HDD. I am using I16 representation with analog input ranges set to +/-5 Volts. My Y-scale on chart shows data range between +400 and -400 counts. I could not understand how it represents data from +-1V to +-400 range? I tried using SGL data type and it shows correct Y-scale range of +-1 Volts. Any suggestion how Labview converts data to I16 format?
Also, I am trying to format X-sclae and Y-scale, but some time it automatically changes upper and lower ranges of scale, minor gride divsions etc, any suggestions for customising grids and scale i.e. I need five grid divisions for every major divison on both X and Y scale. I am using simple chart.
I appreciate your eff
orts to reply my questions,
Thanks,
Kishor

Hi Kishor,
1.
I think you have done the following: On AI Read.vi you have selected the type binary array. This will give the samples in I16. This I16 number is the number the A/D converter generates. This number will always be between -2028 and 2047 for 12 bit cards. You have to convert this number to a real voltage by yourself. Changing the type to scaled array you will get SGL. This value is scaled according to the settings in MAX for your channel. If you didn't configure any channels in MAX the range is always the range you used for the card.
2.
To avoid flipping of the scale and changing the grid divisions right click on the scale and uncheck "AutoScale". Unfortunatly you have no exact control how much divisions were generated.

Is there a way to temporarily disable "Scale strokes & effects"?

I want to be able to scale some charts without changing the stroke size. But I don't want this preference permanently changed. Is there a key to hold down so that when I enlarge the charts that the stroke size stays the way it is? Thanks...
julie

Julie,
Why go to the preferences?
I suggested your using the Transform palette flyout and tick/untick Scale Strokes & Effects there.
And you can scale up using the Transform palette by adding *2 and *2.5 in the W or H box and Ctrl/Cmd+Enter, so you can keep everything there.
It also has the easy option of deciding where to scale from by selecting the relevant Reference Point.

SQL in CRM OD prompt is not working as it works in OBIEE

Hi,
I was earlier OBIEE developer, recently started working on CRM On Demand Application. I tried writting SQL script in CRM On Demand Report PROMPT same as I used to write in OBIEE. Below is the sql statement
Subject Area Used: "Service Request History"
SQL Statement: SELECT CASE WHEN 1=0 THEN Account."Account Name" ELSE 'ORACLE' END FROM "Service Request History"
Output (Error): State: HY000. Code: 10058. [NQODBC] [SQL_STATE: HY000] [nQSError: 10058] A general error has occurred. [nQSError: 27004] Unresolved table: "Service Request History". (HY000)
However, same kind of SQL used to work in OBIEE,
Subject Area: "Service Request History"
SQL Statement: SELECT CASE WHEN 1=0 THEN Account."Account Name" ELSE 'ORACLE' END FROM "Service Request History"
Output: ORACLE
Please let me know why CRM On Demand is not giving output same as it comes in OBIEE and if possible solution to the problem.

Varun

Thanks for your reply Bob.
Could you please tell that how SQL in Axis Scales of Chart view of reports works in CRM On Demand. I found below link related to OBIEE and was trying to implement in CRM OD, however it threw same error i mentioned in the thread.

Numbers export to PDF looks horrible

Was just editing a 1 page Mac OS X Numbers file on the iPad and wanted to share a PDF with a colleague. From the iPad, the page and graphs/charts now get split into many pages that look just horrible and are completely useless - simple graphs lit across multiple PDF pages. Is there anyway to have the PDF format export from iOS Numbers match the 1 page output from Mac OS X numbers? It would be a real shame if this would not be possible, as it renders Numbers on the iPad useless for sharing nice looking charts etc with colleagues.

Looks like you can control some of what it looks like in the Print area.
Can change Portrait/Landscape.
Change the scale.
Use "Auto Fit", which seems to work okay.
Doesn't seem to have the option to fit everything on one big page (like Mac version, which I think is what you are asking for), but you can scale the charts down to a regular size page(s) and at least see how it will be broken up across pages. Maybe I don't have the right kind of printer settings and it works for some people on iPad?
At any rate, then return to email spreadsheet as PDF. Maybe you already know this and it isn't exactly what you want, but just the same I hope it helps some.

Chart Data Axis (Y) Scale - keep constant over groups, dynamic for report

Crystal XI
I want to chart how many transactions there are at a teller, showing number of transactions per hour, with a separate chart for each day in a range that the user specifies at run time through paramaters.
So I group on date at report level, and make my chart on change of hour show count of transactions, and that works.
But using autoscale, EACH CHART is scaled on the Y axis, so for a day that has a peak of 5 tx per hour, that hour reaches top of chart, where next day, there is an hour with 100 tx. So you can't tell at a glance that day 2 was busier than day 1.
I like the auto scale, but I'd like it to consider the report for the scaling. Is there a way to do that? Or do some chart types let me do it and others don't? (I've looked at Bar and Area charts)
I can't use a fixed scale, because different customers have wildly different typical numbers. (I could use a dynamically calculated fixed scale, but I don't see that that's an option) If there's a way to use a formula for the data scale, I'm missing it, and that would probably solve my problem.
Assuming I'm out of luck there - I can change the query as necessary, and I suspect I'm giong to have to use some gimmick like chart my maximum value in invisible ink, if someone's been down the road and knows a solution, if you can give me a quick hint on that, I'd appreciate it.

If all else fails, you can do this easily with our CRChart add-in using the @SC family of macros which allow you to set the Y-Axis scale min/max dynamically (i.e. map them to a field or formula at runtime).

Problem with chart/graph multiple scales

I have a chart with multiple scales. If I turn the visiblity off for some of the scales and then turn them back on they are not in the correct order on the chart. I have attached a program that I used to recreate the problem.
Please advise.
Thanks

The only solution I can think of is to make all the scales invisible then make them visible in the order you want. I have modified your code to do this and added code to speed up the processing by disabling the front panel updates.

Chart options: Y axis scale

Hi,
I created a bar chart for a report that simly displays the count for each distinct value of a field. I would want the Y scale (which displays the count) to only present integer values (its a count, so it's obvious there can't be any non-integer values). Currently it's set to auto select the range and the number of divisions, for which the range it's ok but the divisions don't always come out as all integers. From what I can see, the only way to do this would be to set the min to 0, max to the max count on the report (which is normaly what the auto range does), and the number of divisions as the max count minus one. I don't really see any other way. Apparently there's no way to do this dynamically (like in a formula), and I don't think I can use static range values. Is there any way to do this? I just want to confirm what I know and see if there is any other way to do it.
Also, this is probably not the forum to post this, but just in case, is there any way to do this programatically in code without needing extra libraries or extra tools?
Thanks,
Diego

First of all, by static and dynamic data, do you mean the options for the chart?
Also, I don't want to display the max count on the chart. I would just like to use it on the options for the chart's Y axis as the max value, although I don't think I need to, since the auto scale already does that. I think the only thing I should need is set the number of divisions to display on the Y axis. For example, if the chart has two bars, one for lets say color red, and one for color yellow, and lets say on the data there were 4 red and 6 yellow. So the chart will have two vertical bars, one for red going from 0 up to 4, and one for yellow, going from 0 up to 6. The chart will automatically make the range on the Y scale go from 0 up to 6, but it might make the divisions at say 1.5, 3, and 4.5. But I would like it to not use decimal values for those divisions, instead only divide the axis on integer values, like on 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. To do that, from the options the chart gives me, I can do it by setting a specific number of divisions on the axis (in this case it would be 5 divisions). I just want to know if there is any way I can set that in a formula or something, of if it just has to be the same value for every report (without having to change it directly on the Crystal Reports editor, because the reports get generated automatically with different sets of data).
Thanks,
Diego

Oracle bi publisher PDF output changes chart scale

I have created report which has charts - bar charts
I able to run report in various formats including interactive, html, excel, powerpoint, pdf etc.
Now the chart scale on all other format reports showing perfect e.g. 3.0 height on y axis. So its basically adjusting as the max height (value) for y axis. But for PDF output no matter weather it has less than 3.0 for all values in that page, but it shows height 4.0 (instead of 3.0 max as other output formats are showing). So its not adjusting dynamically as other output formats.
How can I get PDF document display same as other output formats? Because if all values less than 0.5 height, still PDF output showing height as 4.0 , so graph is not visible or almost touching to the ground with straight line.
Please help and appreciate your help.
Thanks

Has there been any update on this? I am running into the same problem, only it is only affecting one of my charts. The maximum keeps on dynamically setting to 4.0, though I have also seen it set its maximum to 5 and minimum to -5 given certain parameters.
I have three other charts on the same report: one with a dynamic maximum that sets correctly, and two that have a static maximum. The problem is only when I view it as a PDF.
