Scatter chart with lines between points

In one of our Deski reports, we have a "funnel" chart.  This is essentially achieved with a scatter plot graph with lines drawn between the scatter points to resemble a line chart.  This allows us to draw odd lines, such as a funnels that don't really look like funnels.    (Picture drawing a concentric circle for another visualization of what we are trying to accomplish).  So our problem is that we need to convert this Deski Report to Webi in order to move to BusinessObjects 4.1.  But we cannot seem to achieve this in Webi because the scatter plot in Webi does not draw lines between the points.  Any ideas out there?  Can this be done in a current BusinessObjects tool?

Hi,
We have the same problem, did you solve your problem and how?
thanks in advanced

  • How can I label data points in a scatter chart with text strings?

    I need to create a Scatter Chart, with a text label for each data point instead of the xy coordinates. A legend will no longer be necessary.Also, I want to draw "cross-hair" lines on both the x and y axes centered on one particular data point.Any ideas?

    Hi
    I have the same problem here, did you find any solutions.
    Here we are ok if the dimension is displayed in the scatter instead of the measurements but the only options i founds was "Show data" and that option displays the values of the xy.
    pls let me know if anybody found any solution for this problem

  • Scatter chart with two series?

    I have a table showing my cat's weight each day. (He's on a much needed diet and it's important to make sure he's losing weight, but not more that about 1% per week, as I experiment with his diet.) I created a scatter chart with the date on the X axis and his weight on the Y axis, and I made a 7 day moving average trendline to show his progress with most of the random daily fluctuations evened out. So far so good.
    I added a column to the chart with a function showing what his weight would be each day if it decreased 1% per week from the average of the previous week. I would like to add this column of data as a second series on the scatter chart so I can make sure he's not losing weight too fast. But I can find no way to do this.
    I had no trouble showing both series on a line chart. But no luck with the scatter chart. I tried creating a new scatter chart using all three columns of data, and I tried dragging the third column of data to the original scatter chart.
    Is it really possible that Numbers '09 cannot show two data series on a scatter chart? Or is there a way to do it?
    Thanks for any assistance.
    Bill

    Hi Bill,
    Maybe this will help. A Scatter Chart displays data pairs, such as a date and a weight. A single column of data would be only one half of the data-pair set. Select both the X and Y value columns for the second set and then add to the Scatter chart.

  • How can I make a graphic (scatter chart) with 1 "y", but multiple "x" (to make a multiple linear regression)?

    how can I make a graphic (scatter chart) with 1 "y", but multiple "x" (to make a multiple linear regression)?

    Émilie,
    The default for X-Y Charts is for X values not to be shared, so it's entirely possible for you to create X-Y pair sets that have common Y-values and independent X-values.
    This answer assumes, as always, that I properly interpreted your problem statement. A linear fit line for each pair set should satisfy.

  • Defining a scatter chart with multiple series

    I am trying to create a scatter chart with two series.  I am using CR8.5 and CR2008.
    I am having difficulty with my data being presented correctly when I attempt to define the scatter chart.  The data is temperature and weather use/sqft for two different years.
    Year Period Temp Energy Use/sqft      Year Period Temp Energy Use/sqft
    2012 1/2012  52  3.7172               2013 1/2013  52  3.1712
    2012 2/2012  62  3.7015               2013 2/2013  57  3.1449
    2012 3/2012  70  3.7937               2013 3/2013  63  3.2039
    2012 4/2012  76  3.9882               2013 4/2013  71  3.4551
    2012 5/2012  82  4.2213               2013 5/2013  81  3.9903
    2012 6/2012  87  4.4875               2013 6/2013  85  4.3650
    2012 7/2012  90  4.4727               2013 7/2013  87  4.2072
    2012 8/2012  86  4.6154               2013 8/2013  87  4.2560
    I would expect to see something similar to the attached images of an excel files scatter chart.  When I defined the scatter chart in Crystal Report, I need to define a field for 'On change of', and 2 'Values to show'.
    I understand that this would not show the expected scatter chart but I went this direction as the series is to be the year.
    On change of:
    - Year
    Show values:
    - Temp
    - Energy Use/Sqft
    Problem is the sum of both is being shown. I am trying to keep the series together by year and showing each record as retrieved from the database.
    Thank you,
    Jim

  • Is there a way to trace a line between point A and B in a PowerMap

    Hi there,
    I have a simple question about PowerMap. Can I trace a line between points A and B? Please bear in mind that a workaround to create hundreds/thousands of points to simulate a line would NOT work for me (like this tutorial
    here -- this is a no-no for me).
    Any ideas if this is possible? If not, then consider it a feature request :-)
    Regards,
    P.

    Sorry but I think you are missing the point here.
    You added several yellow points to make this line. This isn't a line but a bunch of dots. I mentioned in my original question that unfortunately this is an unacceptable kludge for me.
    Consider this. you only have 3 to 5 of those dots, from Athens to Melbourne -- and I want a line between each one of those 3 to 5 dots, connecting them. NOT several dots that looks like a line -- that is cheating (and contra-productive in a real-life scenario)
    Regards,
    P.
    It's not possible. You can make feature requests using the Smile/Frown Feedback button in the UI.

  • Stacked Column Chart with Line

    Hi
    I need to Create a Stacked Column Chart representing 1 set of measures with a Line representing a target.
    I want to create a chart where the Sales Amount in different Sectors is represented as a stacked column and the targets are represenetd as a line.
    Currently BO supports Bar charts with line.
    Does anyone know if such a feature will be supported in the new release of BO XI. Also is it possible to raise a request for this feature to be included in the new release
    TIA

    We are also a 30 persons department (Marketing) using in the same BO charts (since 2001) quarters made of :
    - first single column ( 2014 billing in a query1)
    - second stacked column (2015 billing +2015  firm orders backlog, 2015 frame orders backlog in a query2)
    - third single column (2016 backlog in a query3)
    and a superposed budget line
    the first and the third column are offset respectively to the left and right of the second column by blank and dummy single columns of data called ghost1 and ghost2. 2016 is still empty here but the principle is clear.
    This principle is used liberally in 200 + different reports. Also with transparent columns and other complicated, but graphically intuitive reports.
    How can we continue to use this very natural representation of our several hundred million $ business. I have not found the mixed single column, stack column and line option in BO XI 3.1 . Please re-develop one asap if necessary. SAP should please please report asap on the recovery timeline of this lost feature. The switch from Visual Basic development to Java development should not lead to regression of any feature.

  • X-y Scatter chart with multiple data series

    Hi,
    How do I create an x-y scatter chart with more than 1 data series?  For example:
    Series 1
    x__y
    1__0
    2__5
    3__9
    4__7
    5__2
    Series 2
    x_____y
    0.5___0
    1.3___4.8
    2.6___12.3
    4.1___8.4
    4.9___3.2
    I can do this with 2 seperate graphs but I need them on the same graph.
    Is there a limit on the number of series that can be placed on a single x-y scatter graph?
    Many thanks.

  • Draw an animated line between points

    I'm looking to develop an application that will draw an

    Hello BrotherBob
    Thanks for you rquick reply.
    I've checked those settings and the Brush Dynamics were off, on all brushed.
    Also, wet edges, airbrush and smoothing are 'greyed out' and appear to be locked.
    Still the same effect, the square brush works, the round brushes don't!

  • Scatter charts with dates

    I am trying to create a scatter chart which has date on the X-axis and meter reading on the Y-axis. The date/time intervals are not regular so I can't use a line or bar chart, but I can't seem to get the scatter chart option to accept the series for the X-axis with the dates in it. Is what I am doing possible in Numbers or will I have to revert to Excel
    Many thanks for any help,
    John Perry.

    The Scatter chart requires sets of numerical values.
    Date_time aren't numerical values so as you see, we can't chart them.
    But it's easy to build a workaround.
    Here column B contains dates.
    In column C, I uses:
    =B-DATE(2008,1,1)
    which returns numerical values
    So, I was able to chart C2 … D11
    To refine the result, disable the display of labels on X axis and build a text block with the dates as I did for Graphique 2-1

  • "Scatter" Chart with Multiple Values per Date

    APEX Gurus,
    I need to plot a chart with multiple y-axis values along the x-axis.
    Here's an example:
    X-Axis (Date) Y-Axis (Number)
    1-JAN-07 1
    1-JAN-07 2
    1-JAN-07 3
    2-JAN-07 1
    2-JAN-07 2
    3-JAN-07 1
    Right now, APEX displays the X-axis (Date) as separate values on the x-axis. But I want all three 1-JAN-07 values to line up vertically under x-axis. I am currently using a line chart for this. And it displays a "dot" for each value (depending on my max rows value).
    Any insight would be much appreciated! And thanks in advance!
    Susan

  • Stacked Column Chart with Lines

    Requirement:
    User stacked Column chart to display data for defects for 4 departments.
    1 or 2 lines to show baseline for defects(constant).
    Is there anyway that I can do that just like we can create one in Excel?
    (stack a Stacked column chart with a line chart is not a solution.)
    Any advises?
    Thanks,
    Wen

    Hi Wen,
    I realise that you are not going to get this to work with a standard component on its own. I think it might be possible to acheive it with overlaying barcharts and combination charts.
    My assumption is that you are looking for something that has a stack with 3 separate items in it. Two target lines crossing over the stacked chart.
    I will have a look at this to see if I can come up with something. Let me know if this is not your requirement.
    No, I don't work for SAP. I think those that do have the SAP logo beside them.
    Regards
