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.

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

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.

Numbers Charts: Stacked bar chart with two sets of data

Hi....newbie with first post
I'm trying to create a stacked bar chart with two lots of comparative data.
So, there is Basic + Overtime for April 2010 as one stack (ie the basic is one colour, stacked on top is the overtime in a different colour)
Basic + Overtime for April 2011 next to it.
I can get April figures next to one another as four separate columns (2 x basic, 2 x overtime), or I can get all four figures in a single stack, but I can't to two columns (one for each year) of basic and overtime.
Any ideas?

UK,
What you are trying to do will require that you interleave the two sets of two-series data into one longer two-set series, and then plot just the one pair of series. Clear as mud?
What I'm saying is that you have to fake out the program into thinking that you have just two sets, not four.
You will have one series that has, for instance Apr 2010 Basic, Apr 2011 Basic, May, 2010 Basic, May 2011 Basic, etc.. This other series in that chart will have Apr 2010 Overtime, Apr 2011 Overtime, May 2010 Overtime, May 2011 Overtime, etc.
The bad thing here (I'll anticipate your first complaint) is that 2010 and 2011 data will have the same color for Basic and another color will be assigned for both 2010 Overtime and 2011 Overtime.
To get separate color sets for 2010 and 2011 data pairs, you will have to create two charts and overlay them. Both charts would be built in the alternating year format described above, but in one chart all the 2010 data would be blank and in the other chart all the 2011 data would be blank, leaving spaces in the chart for the data from the other chart to nest in.

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

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.
Jay

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.

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.

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

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.

AreaChart : Customizing HorizontalAxis of a chart with Multiple Series

Hi there,
My area chart has 5 series which has same x_value while different y values and a value which i want to show as label.
all series have dataProvider with following object
{x: x_value, y:y_value, l:label_value}
series xField is using "x" which is also showing values from x at x-xis (horizontal) axis.
My problem is
I want to use same xField=x but i want to show "l" as label values.
How can i do that?
I tried using a LinearRenderer on horizontal axis and provided a custom label function, but i only get "x" value and NOT "l" to show label.
Thanks

I wasn't able to do something like what you describe, but I was able to do this:
I defined column A of the table as a Header Row, selected the cells in the table, and chose this chart type (2D 2 Axis):
Then I clicked the chart and in the pane at the right checked 'Axis Name' in the Axis tab and added the axis names.
Maybe this can give you an idea of how you can illustrate the relationships that you want to show.

"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!
