Metric 1 - Bar - Blue color
Metric 2 - Line - Red Color
Metric 3 - Bar - Green color
Is this do able in WebI. we are on SP 7 for Webi 4.0 and using SAP Bex Query.
Please advice.

Hi,
Custom palette colours in Webi 4.0 are tricky, but possible.
From here: http://www.pieterverstraeten.com/blog/custom-color-palette-sap-bo-bi-40-bi4-change-analysis-crystal-webi-house-style/
Open C:\Program Files (x86)\SAP BusinessObjects\SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 4.0\images\VisualizationConfig.template.xml
Save the file as VisualizationConfig.xml
Edit the colours as you please.
Save the file.
Restart Tomcat.
Yeah, a tomcat restart to change colours. I'm sure this will be tidied up in a future version.

  • BO 4.0 Web Intelligence, Error: Column Chart shows not the whole data

    Hello,
    I want to create a case study in BusinessObjetcs 4.0 (Web Intelligence) with a column chart.
    Year is the Category Axis and Revenue is the Value Axis.
    Unfortunately the resulting chart shows only the year 2008.
    If I choose Month as Regional Color the chart shows all years (2008-2011).
    What I do wrong? Or is this a bug?
    Thank you!
    Best regards,
    Wladimir

    Hi again,
    What I think is that there simply isn't data in the report other than the 2008,
    or at least the combination of the section master/year only has 2008 data.
    If that is not what you expect and there should be more data, also when looking specifically at the values for just this section,
    then you could check if you may be have incomplete query results. Standard they will be limited to 5000 rows, unless your universe designer decides otherwise.
    Check the number of rows returned (free cell with query details),
    if it is 5000 (or any other nice round figure) have a chat with the universe designer.
    Good luck,
    Marianne

  • Colour by series in combination and column charts

    I am trying to create combination charts and column charts where each column or line in the charts can be assigned its own colour. This can be acheived by using the "By Series" option in the properties "General" tab. However, when this approach is taken, all the columns are grouped in the middle of the chart, with large ammounts of unused space on the left and right of the columns. Usual behavior with other charting programs is that the columns start from the left hand margin. Indeed, this is the case if I choose the "By Range" option, but then all the columns are the same coluor, and individual column and line colours can not be changed. Anybody got any ideas on how to resolve this please.

    Hi Darrell,
    Here's an example using COUNTIF. I've moved the count to a separate table. Table names are shown above each table:
    Formula:
    Summary::B2, and filled down to B6: =COUNTIF(Main :: $A,"<"&A3)-COUNTIF(Main :: $A,"<"&A2)
    Note that A7 must contain a numberlrger than the starting number for the last category you are recording.
    B7 should be left empty.
    Row 1 on each table is a Header Row.

    Barry

  • How do you combine a stacked column chart with a clustered column chart

    Hello,
    I am trying to combine a stacked column chart with a clustered column chart. I know that in Excel there is a way to trick that described on the next site: http://people.stfx.ca/bliengme/ExcelTips/Columns.htm
    Is that possible with BI Publisher?
    Thank you very much!
    Codruta Crisan

    Finally I get it myself:
    You need to use graph type as BAR_VERT_STACK2Y and the declare the series that you want to see on the first Y vertical bar as assignedToY2="false" and the ones that you wanr to see on the second Y vertical bar as assignedToY2="true".
    In my case I use 4 Series, 2 stack on the first clustured column and 2 stacked on the second (2Y) clustured colum....see below
    graphType="BAR_VERT_STACK2Y">
    <SeriesItems>
    <Series id="0" assignedToY2="false" color="#BBD6E7"/>
    <Series id="1" assignedToY2="false"/>
    <Series id="2" assignedToY2="true" color="#004A96"/>
    <Series id="3" assignedToY2="true"/>
    </SeriesItems>

  • Stacked Column Chart (Total and Combination Chart)

    Hi,
    I tried to find the answer at old posting, but failed to find proper solution.
    So here I go again with the same old problems:
    1. Any method / trick to display total on top of each stacked column ?
        (Label is not an option, since it is static and will not move following the height of the stacked bar).
    2. Any method / trick to combine stacked column chart with line chart ?
        (Overlay is not an option, because I think it is too tedious to play around with color and border)
    Thanks for the bandwidth.
    Regards.
    NB: Are there any XCelcius add-on for those 2 functions ?

    Hi Yudie,
    Can you get compromised in the following way ?
    In the X Axis labels, you can get the values concatenated dynamically and displayed. Example given below:
    2008          2009          2010
    P180         P250         P280
    A172        A263         A265
    Whereas P denotes to Plan and A denodes Actuals.  Above to this labels stacked colum wil be there as usual.
    Consider and revert, in case you need any more clarification on this.
    Keep posting.
    With best wishes
    BaaRaa.

  • Chart Web Part - Stacked Column Chart and the Y Field

    I am trying to create  a stacked chart in Sharepoint. 
    I am encountering a problem at the "Bind Chart to Data" Step. Retrieval of Data goes without a hitch - all rows and columns are captured and shown, but then when it comes to adding series, the "Y Field" drop down menu only shows one of
    my columns. So of course, the final chart only has one data series visible - a normal column chart instead of a stacked one.
    What could be the cause of this, and how do I fix it?

    Yes, that's right. That is exactly what I want to do.
    But, the problem I'm facing is that when it comes time to select the second series settings as:
    The second Series settings:
    Series Name: Oranges
    Series Type: StackedColumn 
    Series X-Axis Type: Primary
    Series Y-Axis Type: Primary
    X Field: Day
    Specifically >>>>Y Field: Oranges
    The Y-field option which appears as
    a drop-down menu on the page, does NOT show the option "Oranges". It shows only "Apples" again, and also a blank setting (selecting this also does not cause desired graph to get created).
    I want to know HOW to be able to select "Oranges" as the Y-field because I am unable to do so!

  • Problem with mouse-over value on a column chart (by Series)

    Hi.
    First of all thanks for any offered tip.
    I am having a problem with a column chart.
    When I move the mouse over a column it should show a small pop-up (or tip) with the column name (series name) and the value (series value). The problem is that it displays an extra '1' just like the following:
    SeriesName
    1
    X.XXX
    How can I remove the extra '1' and only show the name and the value ?
    The data is populated by series (manually added).
    Mihai.

    Hi,
    Thanks for the tip Shanthakumar KA.
    Yes. It looks like the '1' is coming from the X Axis labels. The chart that I have built does not require any labels on the X Axis, so this was not set (X-Axis labels: Empty). I tried setting this to an empty cell, but the '1' still appears in the mouse-over tip.
    It is very weird. If I leave the X-Axis labels empty, I still get the '1' displayed which is very annoing.
    Are there any solutions for this except the re-building the tip with a label a.k.a. '[customize the mouse over values|http://xcelsiusandme.blogspot.com/2009/07/xm-sample-7-customizing-mouse-over.html].'

  • How to reset drill-down column-chart based on map-chart?

    Hi guys,
    I'm facing pritty common issue while designing one of my dashboards.  Let me describe a little bit  more:
    1. I have some data extracted from BW using Query as WebService into my Xcelsius spreadsheet.
    2. I have map-chart - regions for some country.
    3. I have a drill-down column-chart, which displays data for a selected region.
    At the beginning column-chart displays results for entire country (which, in fact, is not exactly drill-down). The issue I'm fasing is, that in case I select any region and the data is drilled-down into my column-chart, I have no option to show data for the entire county in the column-chart anymore (the only one way is to restart the report).
    Are there any possible way to do this, or am I doing a design error while displaying data, which is not drilled-down, into a chart which is intended to display drill-down data only?
    Any help would be highly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.

    Ivaylo Mutafchiev,
    I understand your problem now. So your column chart data which is coming from the QAAWS query should be having a prompt which is bound to some cell in excel. and your map might be passing the values for prompt isn't it? in your case the map might be passing a region.
    All you need to do is put the prompt in the web service for region as a optional prompt. Now pull in a check box or a Push button(name it as reset or something.). while binding the data to the check box or push button (source data) bind it to a blank cell. when user clicks on it , it passes a blank vlaue to the region(this is ur input for region) which will inturn makes the prompt optional for the region web service. which should pull all the data for all the region.
    The whole idea lies in somehow passing a blank cell to your  web service whose region prompt is optional.
    Thanks,
    Karthik

  • 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.

  • Creating Custom Theme for Power View Clustered columns chart

    Helllo...
    Is it possible to create custom theme for displaying clustered columns chart on Power View?
    Basically I am looking to create chart with specific colors for the bars? For e.g. for High - RED, Medium - Orange and Low - Yellow color. When I look at themes available in Excel 2013 I don't see this combination as such, so I was looking to create one
    myself. 
    I tried to create a theme using video on youtube, but the theme which I created is not showing up in Power View mode in excel 2013.
    www.youtube.com/watch?v=xs2F1n2-YR8

    Hi Sagar,
    In Power View, it has several default theme colors for us to apply to our workbook. Also, we can change the Font, Text Size and Background of the chart. However, it is not support to design a custom theme color.
    You can refer to the following steps to change the theme colors:
    1. On the POWER VIEW tab, in the Themes group, click Themes.
    2. Under Built-in, click the theme that you want to use.
    Please refer to the following screenshot below:

  • Column chart solid color stroke with fillfunction

    Hi,
    in a column chart I am using the fillfunction,
    to customize the color of each column.
    Now I need to modify,
    for each column also the solid color stroke,
    but I can't figure how can I do that.
    Some one can help me ?
    Thanks a lot
    Jody

    Depending on what you are trying to do, you need to either:
    create an Array with the colors
    [Bindable]
         private var warmColorsArray:Array = new Array(
            new SolidColor(0xFF0033, .5),
            new SolidColor(0xFF0066, .5),
            new SolidColor(0xFF0099, .5)
         [Bindable]
         private var coolColorsArray:Array = new Array(
            new SolidColor(0x3333CC, .5),
            new SolidColor(0x3366CC, .5),
            new SolidColor(0x3399CC, .5)
    And then just add that array to the fill parameter
    <mx:ColumnSeries
                    xField="month"
                    yField="profit"
                    displayName="Profit"
                    fills="{warmColorsArray}">
               </mx:ColumnSeries>
    Or, you need use the fillFunction to set each item individually.
    Here is the results from an example I did, in order how to do it. And I put a post on my blog explaining what I did.

  • Report Viewer 2010 Column chart Side Margin

    Hi,
    In Report Viewer 2010 Column chart, there is a side margin between x-axis and first column. There is only option to Enable or Disable it but i would like to have this with some small width or custom value.
    How can i reduce side margin in Report Viewer 2010 Column chart?
    Regards,

    Hi RajeshPuniya,
    In Reporting Service, we can only enable or disable the side margins on the X-Axis of the chart. There is no such feature support us to customize the width of the side margin.

  • Column Charting using remote service

    Hi Friends,
    as I am a noob to Flex, I'd like to get some help regarding some Charting I am trying to produce.  I have a remote service which calls a java/sql app which provides data. Once the data is returned (in the form of arrays), I need to display the data in a Column Chart. I am able to get the data and display the chart, however I have no control over the chart.
    How can I define the series so I can correctly label the data on the charts? Also need the series defined so I can customize the colour etc of the chart.  Below is a snippet of the Action Script code which I have whipped up to get the data and display it:
                public function resultHandler(event:ResultEvent):void
                    arr = event.result as Array;
                    var colArr:Array=new Array();
                    var j:Array = new Array();
                    for (var i:int=0;i<arr.length;i++)
                        j[i]= new ColumnSeries();                                   
                         j[i].dataProvider = arr;
                         j[i].displayName = i as String;                         
                           j[i].yField = String(i);
                           if (i!=0) colArr.push(j[i]);
                        // Original line
                        columnChart.series = colArr;             
    Any help would be much appreciated!

    This window signifies that your PDF is trying to connect with the comments repository.
    So it is bound to pop up , almost everytime you open the PDF.
    However if you accidently make a typo while entering comments, this window will keep re appearing, even if you enter the right credential in successive attempts.
    The only workaround is to kill the collabSync service.
    however try the latest version of Acrobat / reader i.e. 11.0.6, i believe the problem is fixed there.
