Single stacked bar chart

Hi Guys,
I have the below mentioned data that I want to represent in a single stacked bar chart.
Dept Name               No. of Managers
A                                        5
B                                        2
C                                        3
I want the chart to look like the one shown below.
Legend:
Yellow - Dept B (20%)
Blue - Dept A (50%)
Green - Dept C (30%)
Could anyone please help me achieve this in Dashboards 4.1?

The series display the segment based on the values you pass to the chart, I hope you are looking for the percentage to highlight here. This is not possible you can change the color of the series and you can maintain a text to define the color code as you described above.

Stacked bar chart with single group

Post Author: rt50896
CA Forum: Charts and Graphs
Dear all, I have a question about stacked bar chart with one group value(normally more than one group value is ok) ex. YYYYMM PRODUCT AMT -
 200601 ABC 1000 200602 ABC 300 200603 ABC 500 ..... the data collection is as above,then chart display: x-axis as YYYYMM,y-axis as PRODUCT... but why this case the bar chart color not the same for each YYYYMM? and legend not display one PRODUCT as ABC only? the bar chart display like this: http://tkfiles.storage.live.com/y1po30C7CH6eW9phoLAXH89MBGwFLYdEZ3kOMQXUQzDzwM-VNnffibEwqPI8TIUNBm1f7uKTjnkaOI ps. crystal report version is 8.5Regina

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.

Problem with Stacked Bar Chart

I have a problem with a stacked bar chart in Numbers 09. My chart is a single series with 6 categories. All of the categories have different values. The first 5 categories display correctly. However, the last category does not display in the color its supposed to, but rather shows up as white/background instead of the grey color shown on the legend. However, the value label is displayed in the proper place.
When I select other chart types (pie, regular bar, or regular column) the category shows up like it's supposed to.
This is kind of annoying since I would rather use stacked bar instead of a pie chart. Is there an upper limit on the number of values it can display as a stacked bar chart? Is this just a bug? Thanks!

Here's my result with six values in a single series. I double clicked the last bar to change its colour from the default grey (which was visible) to magenta.
Numbers 2.0.3, iBook G4, OS X v10.4.11
(Shot in the dark:) Try double clicking the value label, then changing the order position of this item.

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

Problems with stacked bar chart in Java SDK and CRDesigner

Hi @ll,
I have an issue with the rendering of stacked bar charts through the Java SDK and the CRDesigner. unfortunately, my research in this forum and with the help of aunt google didn't lead to success.
These are my problems:
I have a stacked bar chart which, when datasets/stacks increase in number per bar, displays errors:
1.) the single stacks of the bar merge together randomly and form bigger stacks with the sum of the singles. the information of single stacks gets lost in the bar.
2.) the total sum of all singles is bigger than the maximum value on the y-axis displays. thus, the scaling is wrong.
1.) appears in the CRDesigner as well as in the Java SDK
2.) only occurs in the Java SDK
Is there any trick to turn the random merging of slices off?
Is the false scaling a known issue and is there a bugfix/workaround?
many thanks for all advice
Tom

hi folks,
i found the answer to the above problems:
when you specify the recordfields that are responsible for the change to the next stack or bar, the 'stack' fields have to be unique.
in my case i evaluated durations in msec (as stacks) from different devices (as bars). randomly i had the same durations for one device. what happens is, that CR does not notice a change and accumulates to the first stack with the same duration.
surprisingly this also seems to derange the axis scaling. fix the problem by simply using an overall unique recordfield like rownum or a formula that forms the current timestamp to text as identifier for the stacking.
cheers

Normal/stacked bar chart problem

hi,
i have created a bar chart which has 2 bars for each customer. (the customer is on the x-axis). how i did this, is i created two formulas and placed them in the 'show value(s)' box in the chart expert.
however, what i want to do is to have one bar for each customer subdivide. If i change the type of chart to 'stacked bar chart' each customer has one bar and that bar is subdivided. But I want each customer to have 2 bar (which i have at present) and want one of those two bars to be subdivided.
How would i go about doing this? (if it can even be done(?) )
thanks

How to create a stacked bar chart?

How do you create a stacked bar chart in Visual Composer?
I have a query with one keyfigure (amount) and drilldowns on Sales Org and Invoice Type. In my chart I want a bar for each Sales Org, and each bar should be divided in sections according to Invoice Type in one single stack. How can I create that?

Hi
Are you using BI query? If yes then follow the steps -
1. Take Sales org in rows of BI query. & take invoice type & Key figure in Columns.
2. In VC use this query & drag chart from the output of this query.
3. Right click on chart & go to 'Configure Element'. There select Chart Type as 'Bar chart'
4. Below that you will get default option as clustered, there you select 'Stacked'
5. Create Data series as per your requirement.
6. Arrange proper layout of the model & then deploy.
You will get required output in stacked format.

Stacked Bar Chart - SVG

Hi,
My department is conducting a series of SWOT sessions. Each item submitted during the sessions is given a category (such as Project Management), a quadrant (such as Strength), and a participant (such as Staff). I'm trying to display a stacked bar chart that will show the amount of items per quadrant for each category.
I ran into, what looks like, the common bug with null values being returned. I tried to fix this using the query below. I use the same query below for 4 series (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats) and hardcode the quadrant name accordingly (is that correct?). If only one series exists, the graph works fine. If more than one exists, the graph does not display (no error is given, it simply does not display). Does anybody have any insight? Am I taking the wrong approach with my query?
select null link, c.category_name label, nvl(count(i.item_name),0) value
from swot_item i, swot_category c, swot_quadrant q
where i.item_category = c.category_id
and i.item_quadrant = q.quadrant_id
and q.quadrant_name = 'STRENGTH'
AND (instr(':'||:P1_CATEGORY_LIST||':',':'||i.item_category||':') > 0 OR TO_CHAR(:P1_CATEGORY_LIST) = 'ALL')
AND (instr(':'||:P1_PARTICIPANT_LIST||':',':'||i.item_session||':') > 0 OR TO_CHAR(:P1_PARTICIPANT_LIST) = 'ALL')
group by c.category_name
union all
select null link, c.category_name label, 0 value
from swot_category c where c.category_name not in (select c.category_name
from swot_item i, swot_category c, swot_quadrant q
where i.item_category = c.category_id
and i.item_quadrant = q.quadrant_id
and q.quadrant_name = 'STRENGTH'
AND (instr(':'||:P1_CATEGORY_LIST||':',':'||i.item_category||':') > 0 OR TO_CHAR(:P1_CATEGORY_LIST) = 'ALL')
AND (instr(':'||:P1_PARTICIPANT_LIST||':',':'||i.item_session||':') > 0 OR TO_CHAR(:P1_PARTICIPANT_LIST) = 'ALL')
group by c.category_name
Thanks,
Brian

Brian,
Which version of APEX are you using? In 3.0, you can use a Flash chart, which supports a single query for all 4 series like this:
select null link, c.category_name label,
       sum(decode(q.quadrant_name,'STRENGTH',1,0)) "Strengths",
       sum(decode(q.quadrant_name,'WEAKNESS',1,0)) "Weaknesses",
       sum(decode(q.quadrant_name,'OPPORTUNITY',1,0)) "Opportunities",
       sum(decode(q.quadrant_name,'THREAT',1,0)) "Threats"
from swot_item i, swot_category c, swot_quadrant q
where i.item_category = c.category_id
and i.item_quadrant = q.quadrant_id
AND (instr(':'||:P1_CATEGORY_LIST||':',':'||i.item_category||':') > 0 OR TO_CHAR(:P1_CATEGORY_LIST) = 'ALL')
AND (instr(':'||:P1_PARTICIPANT_LIST||':',':'||i.item_session||':') > 0 OR TO_CHAR(:P1_PARTICIPANT_LIST) = 'ALL')
group by c.category_name- Marco

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.

Is there a way to color code a stacked bar chart? We need to have one horizontal bar with the colors listed below. In other words, we need to color code a date range to a specific color based on the "Color" column.

Thanks for the replies - here are the answers to your follow-up questions:
Lugh - I am using Crystal v10, I don't find a "Color Highlight tab".
Ranjit - I found this tab, but the only "conditional format" must be based on the start date (x-axis) which is not the field that I need to use to change the color. It appears that I can only use the x-axis values when conditionally formatting a bar, which is not what I need. I need to use a field not actually used in the graph to conditionally format the colors.

Repositioning datalabels on 3-D stacked-bar chart

I am trying to reposition value datalabels on a 3-D 100%-stacked-bar chart. I am using Excel 2010.
I am preparing charts for the age distribution and the race/ethnic distribution of new students, among dozens of others. (Printed, the workbook is over 100 pages, with more charts to be added!)
Each series (for example, "25 to 29" or "Asian") has its distinct color. My boss has stipulated 12pt bold type, but some points are so small that the datalabels are larger than the point. As a result, he
wants the datalabel filled with the category's color. He also wants datalabels for points with 0 values displayed (for instance, "Over 50" or "Not Reported") inside the bar.
On a 3-D bar chart, the middle of a datalabel is positioned at the vertical middle of the point and at the horizontal middle of the face of the point (not the middle of the entire point, thus excluding the sidewall).
The 0-valued points are usually at the top or bottom of the bar. With several categories, inserting the "0" or small-value label at the extreme of the bar often overwrites one or more other labels. My boss wants the second label moved
below the first, etc.
I have used the eyeball method to adjust the datalabels, but I frequently either overlap another label or allow the contrasting color of the point that the labels overlay to leak through the space between the two labels.
I'm trying to tighten the charts' appearance. I have written code, for instance, to horizontally align all datalabels for box-and-whisker charts with the label of the mean. (The labels for the whiskers are not, by default, aligned with the
labels for the box)
The attached code (in VBA, not VB.Net)
Sub test()
Dim bytPoint As Byte, bytSeries As Byte
Dim strDataLabelName As String
 Dim objDataLabelNext As DataLabel, objPoint As Point
 Const cstrTitle As String = "Position DataLabel"
 If Not TypeName(Selection) = "DataLabel" Then MsgBox "Please select a single DataLabel", , cstrTitle: Exit Sub
 strDataLabelName = Selection.Name
 If Not Left$(strDataLabelName, 4) = "Text" Then MsgBox "DataLabel has an invalid name. It must be ""Text SnPn"". Please correct.", , cstrTitle: Exit Sub
 bytSeries = ftbSeries(strDataLabelName)
 bytPoint = ftbPoint(strDataLabelName)
 With ActiveChart
 If bytSeries = .SeriesCollection.Count Then
 Selection.Top = .Axes(xlValue).Top + 0.75
 Else
 Set objDataLabelNext = .SeriesCollection(bytSeries + 1).Points(bytPoint).DataLabel
 Selection.Top = objDataLabelNext.Top + objDataLabelNext.Height
 End If
 Set objPoint = .SeriesCollection(bytSeries).Points(bytPoint)
 Selection.Left = objPoint.Left + (objPoint.Width - Selection.Width) / 2
 End With
 Set objDataLabelNext = Nothing: Set objPoint = Nothing
End Sub
Function ftbPoint(strDataLabelName As String) As Byte
ftbPoint = Val(Mid$(strDataLabelName, InStr(5, strDataLabelName, "P") + 1))
End Function
Function ftbSeries(strDataLabelName As String) As Byte
ftbSeries = Val(Mid$(strDataLabelName, InStr(5, strDataLabelName, "S") + 1))
End Function
...does successfully vertically align the selected datalabel with the label of the next-higher series point, or the bottom of the top axis, if the series is the last. But the datalabel is horizontally aligned with the entire width of the point, not
the face of the point.
My strategy is to add half of the excess of the width of the face of the point over the width of the label to the left edge of the point. objPoint.width returns the 2-D width of the point, not the width of the 3-D face. I've tried subtracting
the point depth from the point width, but that fails on theoretical, much less practical, grounds.
I'm sure a function or a formula exists to convert the three-space depth to two-space so I can subtract it from the point width, but my little pea-sized brain can't conjure it. I've invested a day's work with no solution.
Many thanks in advance for your help.

Hi JFHart,
>>The "face" of the point is the front of the object, as opposed to the shaded side. I'm seeking a way to measure the front. The .width property seems to include the side; it measures the entire area that is colored<<
Yes, it is correct. The width property of Point include the side. Here the test I did for it:
And as far as I know, Excel object model doesn't provide a way to get the width of front face. I suggest that you submit the feedback from link below if you want to Office support this feature.

How to format individual series in stacked bar chart

Hi,
Is there any way I can format (sort order, or transperency) of each series individually in a horizontal stacked bar chart?
I am trying to create a gantt chart, where I am using two series
1. Start Date
2. Duration
The function of series one (Start Date) is only to place the start position of the horizontal bar of series 2 (duration) in the year time frame.
After creation of the stacked bar chart, I want to make the reansperency of series 1 (start Date) as 0 so that the duration bar apears floating and gives the feel of Gantt chart.
Thanks

Well,
I've just been struggling for a couple of hours with a cluster bar chart giving the same problem.
The problem is definitely with "ORDER BY".
I guess the graphing chart is taking the sql query as a string and then does some other manipulation on it which ends abnormally when you include the order by clause.
I presume that if you embed the query in a
SELECT * FROM (<actual query with order by>)
it might mitigate the problem.

Stacked Bar Chart with data from a Web Service

Hi,
I'm working on Dashboard Design (version 14.0.1.287) and I'm trying to create a chart linked to data from a webservice.
With a Year in input, my webservice gives an Amount per Cities and Products
Data retrieved look like this (Sheet1) :
Paris Tablets 45
Paris Laptops 12
Paris Cellulars 89
New-York Tablets 56
New-York Laptops 36
New-York Cellulars 1
Londres Tablets 150
Londres Laptops 3
Londres Cellulars 45
Then I use a Pivot Table (created manually in Excel) looking like this (Sheet2) :
 Tablets Laptops Cellulars
Paris 45 12 89
New-York 56 36 1
Londres 150 3 45
The chart is a Stacked Bar Chart plugged on the previous Pivot Table
I create 3 series (one per Product), values (X) are set with Amount
Category labels (Y) are set with Cities
The goal is to have a dynamic chart (series and categories must update if a new city or a new product appears)
So my question is : how can I set up the chart directly with data retrieved from webservice on Sheet1?
Thx a lot !
Nicolas

hi
First thing , bad news if you are using .Net framework 1,
just forget it, Flex 2 doesn't work well with framework 1, but 2nd,
good news, if you want to use webservices, you'll have to make an
array of objects on .Net Side and send it as objects to flex, i saw
an example on the net but i can't seem to remember where, on the
other hand,if you want to simply use, like i do, HTTPSERVICE its a
very nice way to talk with .Net and you can see my example here
http://flex1-for-dummies.blogspot.com
By the way, in your code, you have a request tag , but you
aren't requesting anything, because if you were you would have to
make like this
<mx:request>
<Artist>{yourinputtext.text}</Artist>
</mx:request>
So if you don't have an input text, you don't need a request
tag, only the operation.

Stacked bar chart with percentage in Xcelsius

Hi,
I want to create a stacked bar chart(Horizontal) for the following data
Project 1 --- >    2140, 177, 288, 135
Project 2 --->     856, 44, 658, 120
For following status respectively
Completed,      Pending ,Partially completed, Not Started
Project 1 and Project 2 will be on Y axis.
I want this data to be divided in percentage.
as shown below
Project 1 |___135_____|___177_____|______2140_______|
Project 2 | __44__|___120_____|________856__________|
0              20           40 ........                          100
How to achieve this in xcelsius?

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.
