Dynamic title for Chart created by an xml-file in SAP ChartDesigner

Hello everybody.
I created an xml-file with SAP ChartDesigner for using it in my abap program. I import this file as a MIME-Object.
Everything works fine, i declared my charts and all my values.
But now I need a dynamic title on the top.
And know that I can give a title in my xml. But it's not dynamic.
I looked into the xml file and the path for the title is:
SAPChartCustomizing
Elements
ChartElements
Title
and then Caption.
p_ixml_doc = g_ixml->create_document( ).
l_encoding = g_ixml->create_encoding( byte_order = if_ixml_encoding=>co_little_endian character_set = 'utf-8' ).
p_ixml_doc->set_encoding( l_encoding ).
l_chartdata = p_ixml_doc->create_simple_element( name = 'SAPChartCustomizing' parent = p_ixml_doc ).
l_elements =   p_ixml_doc->create_simple_element( name = 'Elements' parent = l_chartdata ).
l_chartelements = p_ixml_doc->create_simple_element( name = 'ChartElements' parent = l_elements ).
l_title = p_ixml_doc->create_simple_element( name = 'Title' parent = l_chartelements ).
l_element = p_ixml_doc->create_simple_element( name = 'Caption' parent = l_title ).
l_element->if_ixml_node~set_value( 'QRK-Mittelwert' ).
In my opinion, it's the right path :/
My other values i declare like this.
l_series = p_ixml_doc->create_simple_element( name = 'Series' parent = l_chartdata ).
l_series->set_attribute( name = 'label' value = 'TO' ).
l_series->set_attribute( name = 'customizing' value = 'Series1' ).
loop at gt_mw into gs_mw.
    lv_tabix = sy-tabix.
    l_point = p_ixml_doc->create_simple_element( name = 'Point' parent = l_series ).
    l_element = p_ixml_doc->create_simple_element( name = 'Value' parent = l_point ).
    l_element->set_attribute( name = 'type' value = 'x' ).
    l_element->if_ixml_node~set_value( lv_tabix ).
    l_element = p_ixml_doc->create_simple_element( name = 'Value' parent = l_point ).
    l_element->set_attribute( name = 'type' value = 'y' ).
    l_element->if_ixml_node~set_value( '35.00' ).
endloop.
It works...and i already checked this solution for my title, but it didn't work.
I call the xml file with the method cl_wb_mime_repository:
CALL METHOD cl_wb_mime_repository=>load_mime
    EXPORTING
      io              = lv_io
    IMPORTING
      bin_data        = lt_xmlr
    CHANGING
      language        = sy-langu
    EXCEPTIONS
      no_io           = 1
      illegal_io_type = 2
      not_found       = 3
      error_occured   = 4
      OTHERS          = 5.
CHECK sy-subrc = 0.
*-- Convert raw to xstring
CREATE OBJECT lo_conv.
LOOP AT lt_xmlr INTO ls_xmlr.
    CALL METHOD lo_conv->convert
      EXPORTING
        inbuff    = ls_xmlr
        outbufflg = 25000
      IMPORTING
        outbuff   = lv_xstr.
    CONCATENATE p_xml lv_xstr INTO p_xml IN BYTE MODE.
Maybe somebody can help me.
Thanks a lot.

Set data title from chart at runtime

Is it possible to change the data title from a chart at runtime?
Or alternativly, can one use a formula as data title, which then can be changed at runtime?

We have some reports that are in deferent languages. For now I've used formulafields as columnheaders where I change the text at runtime accordingly.
the text I want to change on the chart is located under
Chart Expert... > Text (tab) > Data title:
For now I solve this by drawing a text object over the chart, but this could give problems in the fututre with positioning and such.

How to use the region parameter of main report for subreport chart titles?

I am using Crystal Reports 11.
I create 1 main report with 10 sub-reports that contain cross-tabs & charts. The main report has a parameter regarding 3 different areas: region1, region2, and region3.
I use the method of adding the u2018regionu2019 parameter of main report to the selection formula of the sub-reports. So, I can select 'region' from main report to controll outputs in sub-reports by region.
I use formulas for chart titles, e.g.:
Select {Product Code}
Case 'a111':
u2018Region1 u2013 a111 Counts'
Case u2018b222u2019:
u2018Region1 u2013 b222 Counts'
u2026
u2026
Default:
u2026
Since I pass the u2018regionu2019 parameter of main report to sub-reports, I have to change chart titles dynamically based on the region I select.
How can I use the region parameter from main report in the formulas to get chart titles dynamically?
Thank you in advance.

Thank you.
I am not using Chart Title with "Chart Expert".
I am using a formula for chart titles, e.g.:
Select {Product Code}
Case 'a111':
u2018Region1 u2013 a111 Counts'
Case u2018b222u2019:
u2018Region1 u2013 b222 Counts'
u2026
u2026
Default:
u2026
I drag this formula above the charts and it looks like a dynamic title. So, for product a111, the chart title would be "Region1 u2013 a111 Counts"; for product b222, the chart title would be "Region1 u2013 b222" Counts; and so on ...
Because I pass the region parameter from master report to subreport, I want to change the region part of the chart titles dynamically.
For example,
when select Region1, the chart titles should be: "Region1 u2013 a111 Counts"; "Region1 u2013 b222"; ...
when select Region2, the chart titles should be: "Region2 u2013 a111 Counts"; "Region2 u2013 b222"; ...
I want to add the region parameter into the tiltle formula.
How should I do?

How to modify a chart title

I have created a chart in Keynote with a title. But the title is really close to the data, and I would like to increase the space between title and chart, but I don't know how. I cannot even cheat by adding a return and creating an empty second line below the actual title.
I know that I could create a seperate textbox to avoid this problem, but I will have to create many charts and I want the distance to be always the same, and I need the feature to turn the title on and off.
By the way: it is a line chart.
Message was edited by: How to modify a chart title

Dear How to modify a chart title,
I think you're going to have to become accustomed to the default position of the title. You can Provide Feedback to Apple using the form available in the Keynote app menu and tell them that you would like this option on the Chart Title feature. My guess is that it won't be high on their priority list since you do have the text box option to fall back on.
Good luck,
Jerry

Category Title in a Chart

Hi, I've just started to use Numbers and have created my first spreadsheet out of the Weight Loss and Running template.
If I select the weight loss chart and select format and then x axis and switch on Title, the chart shows what looks like a default x axis title of "Category Title"
Where can I change this to be the title I want? I assume it comes from the table supplying the data but I cannot find it there.
Thanks,
John.

Hi John,
In the Mac version of Numbers, Category titles are picked up from the Header column (or Header row) nearest the data cells.
If the categories are in column A and the data in column B, Column A must be defined as a Header Column if Numbers is to recognize its content as category titles.
Set the number of Header columns (0 to 5) in the Table menu.
Convert the leftmost non-header column to a Header column using the pop-up menu in the column reference tab, visible when any cell in the table is selected.
Process on Numbers for iOS will be similar, but probably not identical.
Regards,
Barry

Changing a chart title dynamically

Hi all. I'm on apex 3.1.0. I have a list_item with some values and a chart that depends on the value of this list item. I have no set at the moment title of this chart. What I want is to set title depending on value of my list item. So if value of list item is AAA I want that title of chart is AAA, if BBB then title should be BBB and so on.
How can I achieve that??
Thanks for collaboration,
Fabrizio

I guess you mean a select list. You could use a select-list-with-submit or select-list-with-redirect item to ultimately redirect back to the page, passing in the selected value name for use as the chart title. Or you could do something with javascript to capture the selected value and save it in session state immediately. Others will have to advise you on these possibilities.

Multiple axes chart - baseline issue

Hi all,
I'm currently working on charts (column, bar, line, ..) with
multiple axes (each for one series).
If negative amount values are shown in a chart, the baselines
(for zero values) appears
on different coordinates/levels.

I'm using Flex Builder 3.0.2 /Flex SDK 3.2.
Is this is a bug in flex?
Am i missing something in the mxml/as, or is there a solution
or workaround?
Any hints are highly appreciated.
Regards,
Matthias

The series both work fine on their own, of course, but when
you mix in a series with a negative value, it causes the "floating
columns" because the zero-points on the axes don't line up with
each other.
My suspicion is that this is expected behavior. This would
work with other column chart types (like stacked), as long as you
set allowNegativeForStacked to true (there's an example here:
http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/3/html/help.html?content=charts_displayingdata_11.html).
But since you want clustered columns, it might be a problem.
If you think it is a bug, you can file one here:

Chart legend too wide when using horizontal layout

I am using a flex chart with about 15 series on it. I've set
the legend direction variable to "horizontal". However since the
panel width which contains the chart is fixed, the legend sprawls
out to the right instead of going "wrapping around" nicely to stay
within the panel. As a result, you can't read the whole legend when
looking at the chart. The chart itself stays the proper width, but
the legend is too wide and can only be seen via using the scrollbar
to move horizontally. How can that be fixed?

Solerous, you must create a custom legend. Here's an example
that uses a grid to lay out the individual grid items. If you have
a variable number of series, then you can probably come up with
better logic for laying out the legend, but this should help get
you going.

Crys Reports - Mark the Legend Labels and Chart bar - values custom names

Hai,
I want to change the default names/labels of the chart elements (for e.g. bar chart - the labels and values) , in my reports the labels are directly taken from the database columns, how can I change this?,
Someone please help...
Thank you in advance.
Vijay.

Hi
You can select the individual elements(for e.g chart title,legend,chart frame,grid lines,individual bars and series risers etc.).
To do this do a normal left click and then again a left click on the desired object within the chart(which will select the object), and then do a right click which will come up with all possible options.
Say for e.g you wan't to edit a default data label then follow the steps:
1. Left click on the chart
2.Left click on the data label.
3.Right click>>Chart Options>>Titles
4.Here you can edit the default title
Thanks

Burrito mobile project charting components

I have a problem when trying to use the charting components in a Flex Hero mobile project with Flash Builder Burrito.
The release notes(http://labs.adobe.com/wiki/index.php/Flex_SDK_Hero) of Flex Hero state that the charting components aren't included in a mobile project by default, but that you can add the swc's manually.
So I created a new "Flex Mobile Project" in Burrito and added the charting swc's (datavisualization.swc and mx.swc) to the project. But when I try to use the Barchart component or any other chart component I get errors in my Flex application because it cannot resolve the component.
I have a feeling this problem has something to do with the com.adobe.flexide.project.multiplatform.multiplatformnature used in the .project file in a mobile project, but I'm not 100% sure.
Anyone else having this problem and is there any way to resolve this problem?

ok, so here's another problem with charting in a mobile project... if I'm not mistaken there's a problem with the mobile skin.
Although this renders (if you have the datavisualisation.swc and mx.swc and sparkskins.swc in your libs folder) you will not see any text on the axis or in the tooltips.   Does anybody have an explanation and solution? I'm not understand how the skinning is put together in spark :

Dispatching an ItemClick event from a chart

I am trying to provide a simple drill down by getting a name
from a pie slice and then putting the slices contents in a datagrid
based on that name as a filter.
I am trying to use an event dispatcher and an event listener,
but im not exactly sure im doing it right.
The dispatcher would dispatch when something is clicked, and
the string item of what is clicked would be passed into the
remote object. (Not sure how the ItemClick string is passed
by an event)
I know i'm a newb with events.... thanks for any input.
here is the chart component
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

import mx.charts.ChartItem;
import mx.collections.ArrayCollection;
//Label function for the Defect Pie Chart
private function labels(dataItem:Object, field:String
,Index:int, dataPercent:Number ):String
return dataItem.BG_SEVERITY + " " + dataItem.CNT;
private function ItemClick(name:String):void
dispatchEvent(new ChartItemEvent.);
trace("event is dispatched");
]]>
</mx:Script>

>
<mx:series>
<mx:PieSeries id="series"
field="CNT"
nameField="BG_SEVERITY"
labelPosition="callout"
labelFunction="labels"
>
This is called in main's init()
this.addEventListener("name" , ItemClickHandler);
And this is the handler function:
private function ItemClickHandler(event:Event):void
trace(event);
dataManager.soe_bug_list_detail(event['BG_SEVERITY']);
}

JoeADSK,
This might sound like a bit over-kill but you might go ahead
and use a seperate EventHandler class and a DTO(Data Transfer
Object) class to accomplish the event even though you are simply
sending 1 piece of data.
Here is an example if you need one:
==Event Handler Class==
package event
import flash.events.Event;
import myApp.dto.ChartItemDTO;
public class ChartClickEvent extends Event
public var chartName:ChartItemDTO;
public function ChartClickEvent(chartName:ChartItemDTO,
type:String)
super(type);
this.chartName = chartName;
override public function clone():Event
return new ChartClickEvent(chartName, type);
DTO Class:
package myApp.dto
public class ChartItemDTO
public var name:String;
public function ChartItemDTO(name:String)
this.name = name;
Here is how you use it in your mxml for or whatever:
import event.ChartClickEvent;
import myApp.dto.ChartItemDTO;
DONT FORGET TO ADD THIS EVENT BLOCK:
<mx:Metadata>
[Event(name="chartName", type="event.ChartClickEvent")]
</mx:Metadata>
HERE IS AN EXAMPLE FUNCTION NON-WORKING===
private function setChartName(name:String):void
var chrtName:ChartItemDTO = new ChartItemDTO(name);
var chrtClickEvent:ChartClickEvent = new
ChartClickEvent(chrtName, "chartName");
dispatchEvent(chrtClickEvent);
Now this is just hacked together quickly not a working model
but you will get the idea.
Basically the event must be passed a Data Transfer Object to
hand off from the Click event.
Like I said this is over-kill but a good place to start as
you venture forth in the the Event Handling world in Flex.
Good luck, hope this helps,
Kenny

Text comments on line chart

Hi,
I have a single series flash chart displaying dates on X axis and some values on Y axis. The data comes from a table defined as
Week_Start DATE;
Production_Level NUMBER;
Txt_Comment VARCHAR2(255);
Some data points have textual comments attached to them (e.g. explanations for unusually high/low production levels) and I wouold like to display them beside the associated points.
Any ideas on how this can be done would be welcome...
I use APEX 3.0 with AnyChart 5.1.2 and Oracle 10g
Many thanks,
Constantine

Hi Sergio,
Thank you for your help.
This looks promising, except I can't get it to work - would you please take a look at the code I have and let me know what I am doing wrong?

<data>
<series name="Series 1">
<point name="Jan 01" y="0">
<attributes>
<attribute name="comment"><!CDATA[NONE]]></attribute>

</point>
<point name="Jan 08" y="96">
<attributes>
<attribute name="comment"><!CDATA[NONE]]></attribute>
</attributes>
</point>

&P1_TMP_CHART_DATA.
</chart>
</charts>
</anychart>Now, the problem is that when I run my page, I get the chart container with a message saying "XML parser failure: The element type must be terminated by the matching end-tag."
If I replace &P1_TMP_CHART_DATA. in my XML with #DATA# I get to see the chart with some sample data points, so I am guessing the XML itself (axes, title, etc) is probably OK and I messed something up in the definition of &P1_TMP_CHART_DATA.
Your help would be most appreciated.
Thanks,
Constantine

Leaky bar chart - bug?

using javafx 1.2
testing javafx.scene.charts
Looks like there is a memory leak
Here is a small bar chart app.
The bars are animated.
They shrink and grow when clicked on.
Keep clicking and the app eventually crashes with the following error
Unexpected exception caught in MasterTimer.process():
java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space
Just moving the mouse cursor and hovering over different bars seems to use more and more memory

var min=0;
var max=10;
var bcData: BarChart.Data[];
var cats:String[];
for (i in [min..max]){
    insert BarChart.Data {value:i;action : function(){growBar(i);};} into bcData;
    insert "cat{i}" into cats;
function growBar(i:Integer){
    Timeline {
            keyFrames : [
                at (0s) {bcData.value =>0},
at (1s) {bcData[i].value => i}
}.play();

Same problem here. I have a SystemInformationSimulator that generates random data. Trying to plot this using a LineChart overloads the heap after adding around 40 points.

var numberOfCores = 4;
var system = SystemInformationSimulator{
        hostName: "Schildmeer"
        numberOfCores: numberOfCores
var series: Series[];
for(i in [0..numberOfCores-1]){
    insert Series{ } into series;
var x = 0;
var lowerX = 0;
var upperX = 20;
Timeline {
    repeatCount: Timeline.INDEFINITE
    keyFrames : [
        KeyFrame {
            time : 5s
            canSkip : true
            action: function() {
                system.update();
                for(i in [0..numberOfCores-1]){
                    var point = Data{
                        xValue: x
                        yValue: system.cpuLoad[i]
                    insert point into series.data;
if(x >= 20){
delete series[i].data[0];
lowerX++;
upperX++;
println("inserterd point into series[{i}] with x:{x-1} and y:{point.yValue} series[{i}] has size of {sizeof series[i].data}");
