Graphing text in Numbers app

Hello,
I'm looking to create a line graph (or a scatter plot) from a table with text inputs. For instance a daily log of energy level would have drop down menu of Low, Medium and High. I'd like to create a line graph that plots Low, medium and high as if they were numbers. I know I can just have it graph 1, 2 and 3 but I'd like to actually have it show low, medium and high and recognize those as numbers from the input data. So really I need a way to tell Numbers, "this word means this number" and then have it do that in the background.
Thanks!

It's only unusual if you don't see the context. In a daily tracking of energy level the user interface is much better if they can choose low, medium and high in the input data and then see those graphed. So yes, the background should have numbers attached, but both the input data and the legend should say low, medium, high and the numbers should be hidden.
Hi RHolcomb,
Will this work for you? Pop-Up Menus for Low, Medium, High in Row 2.
Formula in B2 of the Values table (and Fill Right)
=VLOOKUP(Input::B2,Lookup::$A:$B,2)
Please tell what you want to do with those values (1, 2 or 3)
Please tell how you will handle a blank or a zero.
Please show how you envisage the graph. Is it something like this (created from the Values table)?
If you really want Low, Medium, High as labels on the Y axis, maybe we need to look further.
Regards,
Ian.

Can you print all the tab control's contents and include the tabs?

We are trying to generate a report that includes the contents of a tab control (graphs, text). Using the Append Control Image to Report.vi, we are only able to print out the active tab and the tab is cut off of the image. How can we generate reports that include all the tab pages and their contents and include the labeling tabs?
Thanks in advance.
Jim

I do have a workaround for makinging the prints but it looks like some sort of cropped screensave that cuts off the tabs. In my sample I was printing out 3 of the tab controls and you can see there are three by the cut off tabs. Is there a setting to allow for more of the graph and its surroundings to be "captured"?

Screen capture of active window in LabWindows at run time

Hi NI,
We at KPIT are building an application which gathers data from an ECU over RS-232. We have completed our UIR file and tested basic send recieve. We would like to automate the test report generation. For this, we need to capture the GUI window (containing graphs, text boxes etc.) after the end of the test. Currently we are doing this manually using the standard Alt+PrintScreen fucntionality provided by Windows. Is there a way in LabWindows to capture the GUI form/screen/tab automatically through an API call ?
Regards,
-Ashish

Hi it's not that elegant but you can usethe following code i wrote:
it uses ClearClipboard software and it's basicly an automated printscreen
int BmpID,Available=0,Width,Height,RowB,PixDepth,Error,Status;
int *ColorTable=NULL;
unsigned char *Bits=NULL; unsigned char *Mask=NULL;
LaunchExecutable ("c:\\Program Files\\ClearClipboard\\ClearClipboard.exe");
Delay(1);
keybd_event(VK_SNAPSHOT,0xd4, 0, 0);
keybd_event(VK_SNAPSHOT,0xd4, KEYEVENTF_KEYUP, 0);
ProcessSystemEvents();
ClipboardGetBitmap (&BmpID, &Available);
AllocBitmapData (BmpID, &ColorTable, &Bits, &Mask);
GetBitmapData (BmpID, &RowB, &PixDepth, &Width, &Height,ColorTable, Bits, Mask);
SaveBitmapToJPEGFile (BmpID, strFull, 0, 100);
DiscardBitmap(BmpID);
free(Bits);
free(Mask);
free(ColorTable);
Hope it helps....

I have 100 data files, I want to join them together as one data file

I need to join approx. 100 data files into one data file, and be able to read back each data file from that one big file. I would also like a feature to count how many files are in the main one file. The data files contain graphs, text and numerics.

What you want to do is not going to be easy to implement. The idea is that files are just binary data and you can join the data into one binary file. The trick is going to be creating the appropriate header for the binary file to include things like file location--the beginning and end of a subfile--as well as the number of files. The exact structure of the header is really left up to you and your imagination.
Why do you want to join all the files into one? It sounds like what you have works now and making one file increases the chances that all of your data will be lost if the file becomes corrupted. Also LabVIEW is limited to files of about 2GBytes, so you will be more likely to run into this limit.

Upgrading from BW 3.0B to BW 7.0 (Netweaver 2004s)
Introduction
This Wiki contains my teams experiences in upgrading our Business Warehouse System from 3.0B to BW 7.0.
Hopefully it will be useful to anyone else who's about to embark on this. If there's anything I've missed or got wrong, then please feel free to edit it or contact me and I'll try to explain.
Rob Moore - BW Manager, Edwards Limited.
Overview & Scope
This was to be a technical upgrade of BW only. The new BW 7.0 web functionality & tool suite which requires the Java stack rather than the ABAP stack was out of scope. We had heard that the latter was where most of the problems with the upgrade lay. Our plan is to wait for this part of BW 7.0 to become more stable. Also it has a big front end change and the business didn't have sufficient resource to cope with that much change management.
Drivers
3.0B at the end of its maintenance
Opportunities to do better reporting
Options to utilise BI Accelerator
Environment
Our R/3 system was at 4.6C and was not going to be upgraded. We have APO at version SCM4.0.
Our BW system is approximately 300 GB, with 125 global users. It was at version 3.0B SP 18
We have Development, Acceptance and Production environments.
Resource & Timescales
The Project ran for 3.5 months from Feb to May 2007. We used the following resources. The percentages are the approx. amount of their time spent on the project.
Project Manager * 1 70%
BW technical team * 3 50%
ABAP coder * 1 10%
SAP Systems Development expert * 1 20%
Basis * 1 25%
High Level Plan
These are the basic areas. We planned to complete this process for each environment in turn, learning our lessons at each stage and incorporating into revised plans for the next environment. However we did the Support Packs and Plug-Ins in quick succession on all environments to keep our full transport path open as long as possible.
Upgrade BW to the minimum support pack.
Install R/3 Plug-ins PI 2004.1
Run PREPARE on BW
Dbase upgrades (Database & SAP Kernel upgrade)
System Upgrade
Summary Task List
This list contains all the basic tasks that we performed. A more detailed check list is shown below for each of the headings.

Lessons Learnt
Testing is all! We picked up on a lot of issues, but would have picked up more if we'd had a full copy of our production environment to test over.
Our approach of doing a full upgrade on each environment before moving to the next one paid dividends in giving us experience of issues and timescales.
Write everything down as you go, so that by the time you get to upgrading production you've got a complete list of what to do.
We succeeded because we had people on our team who had enough experience in Basis and BW to be able to troubleshoot issues and not just read the manual.
The SAP upgrade guide is pretty good, if you can understand what they're on about...
Remember the users! The fact that the loads have been successful doesn't count for anything unless the users can see the data in Excel! There's a tendency to get caught up in the technology and forget that it's all just a means to an end.
Issues & Fixes
I've listed the main issues that we encountered. I have not listed the various issues where Transfer rules became Inactive, DataSources needed replication or we had to reinstall some minor Business Content.
Unfixed Issues
We could not fix these issues, seems like SP 13 will help.
Cant delete individual request from ODS
After PREPARE had been run, if we had a load failure and needed to set an ODS request to Red and delete it, we found that we could not. We raised an OSS with SAP but although they tried hard we couldn't get round it. We reset the PREPARE and still the issue persisted. Ultimately we just lived with the problem for a week until we upgraded production.
Error when trying to save query to itself
Any query with a re-usable structure cannot be saved (more thsan once!)
OSS 975510 fixed the issue in Dev and Acc, but NOT in Production! SP 13 may solve this once it's released.
Warning message when running some queries post-upgrade
Time of calculation Before Aggregation is obsolete. Not a big issue so we haven't fixed this one yet!
Process Chain Scheduling Timing error
Process chains get scheduled for the NEXT day sometimes and has to be manually reset.
See OSS 1016317. Implement SP13 to fix this. We will live with it for now .
Fixed Issues
Duplicate Fiscal Period values in Query
If you open up a drop down box ("Select Filter Value") for Fiscal Year/Period to filter your query, you are presented with duplicate entries for Month & Year.
Due to Fiscal Year Period InfoObject taking data from Master Data not InfoProvider. Thus it picks up all available periods not just Z2.
Auto-Emails being delayed
Emails coming from BW from process chains are delayed 2 hours on BW before being released
Due to userids that send these emails (e.g. ALEREMOTE) being registered on a diffferent timeazone (i.e. CET) from the BW system (i.e. GMT)
Pgm_Not_Found short dump
Whenever a query is run via RRMX or RSRT
Call transaction RS_PERS_ACTIVATE to Activate History and Personalisation
Characteristics not found
When running a query the warning message Characteristic does not exist is displayed for the following: 0TCAACTVT, 0TCAIPROV, 0TCAVALID
We activated the three characteristics listed and the warnings stopped. NO need to make them authorisation-relevant at this stage.(also did 0TCAKYFNM)
System generated Z pgms have disappeared
Post-upgrade the system Z-pgms ceased to exist
Discovered in Development so we compared with pre-upgraded Production and then recreated them or copying them from production.
Conversion issues with some Infoobjects
Data fails to Activate in the ODS targets
For the InfoObjects in question, set the flag so as not to convert the Internal values for these infoobjects
InfoObject has Conversion routine that fails, causing load to fail
The routine prefixes numeric PO Numbers with 0s. SD loads were failing as it was not able to convert the numbers. Presumably the cause of the failure was the running of the Pre-Prepare RSMCNVEXIT pgm.
Check the Tick box in the Update rule to do the conversion prior to loading rather than the other way round.
Requests fail to Activate on numeric data
Request loads OK (different from above issue) but fails to Activate
Forced conversion within the update rules using Alpha routine. Deleted Request and reloaded from PSA.
Database views missing after pre-PREPARE work
Views got deleted from database, although not from data dictionary
Recreated the views in the database using SE14.
Workbook role assignations lost
We lost a few thousand workbook assignments when we transported the role they were attached to into Production
The workbooks did not exist in Development, thus they all went AWOL. We wrote an ABAP program to re-assign them in production
Regression Testing Process
Introduction
We were limited to what we could do here. We didn't have a sandbox environment available. Nor did we have the opportunity to have a replica of our production data to test with, due to lack of disk space in Acceptance and lack of sufficient Basis resource.
Set up
We manually replicated our production process chains into test. We didn't have any legacy InfoPackages to worry about. We asked our super-users for a list of their "Top 10" most important queries and did a reverse transport of the queries from Production back into test (as we do not generally have a dev/acc/prodn process for managing queries, and they are mostly created solely in prodn). We made sure every application was represented. In retrospect we should have done some Workbooks as well, although that didn't give us any problems.
Actions
Prior to the various changes we loaded data via the Process chains and ran the example queries to give ourselves a baseline of data to test against. After the change we ran the same queries again and compared the results against the baseline. We tried to keep R/3 test environments as static as possible during this, although it wasn't always the case & we often had to explain away small changes in the results. After upgrading BW Development we connected it to Acceptance R/3, so that we had pre-upgrade (BW Acceptance) and post-upgrade (BW Development) both taking data from the same place so we could compare and contrast results on both BW systems. We did the same thing once BW Acceptance had been upgrading by connecting it (carefully!) to Production R/3. To get round the lack of disk space we tested by Application and deleted the data once that Application had been signed off. Once we got to System test we involved super-users to sign off some of the testing.
Security
We chose to implement the new security schema rather than choosing the option to stick with old. For us, with a relatively small number of users we felt we could get away with this & if it all went wrong, just temporarily give users a higher level role than they needed. Our security roles are not complex: we have end user, power-user and InfoProvider roles for each BW application, together with some common default roles for all. In the event we simply modified the default "Reports" role that all our users are assigned, transported it and it all went smoothly. Apart from the fact that everyone's workbooks are assigned to this role and so we "lost" them all !
Transport Freeze
Once you've upgraded Development you've lost your transport path. We planned around this as best we could and when absolutely necessary, developed directly in Acceptance or Production, applying those changes back to Development once the project was complete. Depending on what other BW projects you have running this may or may not cause you pain!
Web Applications
Dashboards
We had various dashboards designed via Web Application Designer. All these continued to function on the upgraded system. However there were various formatting changes that occurred e.g. Bar graphs were changed to line graphs, text formats on axes changed etc. SAP provides an upgrade path for moving your Web applications by running various functions. However we took the view that we would simply re-format our dashboards manually, as we didn't have very many to do. Plus the external IGS (see below) powered all our environments and needs upgrading separately as part of the SAP method. Thus we couldn't have tested the SAP path in Development without risking Production. Sticking with manual mods was a lower risk approach for us. We did find we had to re-activate some templates from BC to get some of the reports to continue to work.
Internet Graphics Server (IGS)
We had an external IGS server with v3.0B. Post-upgrade the IGS becomes part of the internal architecture of BW and thge external server is redundant. We found no issues with this; after the upgrade BW simply stops using the external IGS and no separate config was needed.

System fonts not showing in Font Book

I am using Font Agent Pro as a font manager and am wondering if there's a conflict with it and Apple's Font Book. I cannot get the system fonts to show up in Font Book and, hence, those (System) fonts don't show in Apple apps, e.g., Safari, Grapher, Text Edit, etc., etc.
The only way I can get the system fonts to show in apple apps it to drag the System>Library>Fonts folder to the "Collection" column onto the "Computer" collection. This is fine, but it copies the System fonts to the ComputerName>Library>Fonts folder.
I've tried for hours to get the System fonts to show in Font Book and do it without the System fonts being copied to the Library or User folder, i.e., I want the System fonts to stay in the System fonts folder only.
If I boot into another partition and bring up Font Book everything works as I would expect, and Font Agent Pro is not installed on that partition...
Any Ideas?
TIA,
Geoff

Hi PS1,
I am using Font Agent Pro as a font manager and am wondering if there's a conflict with it and Apple's Font Book.
Yes, in a sense. If you always open and close your fonts through FAP's interface, then it's no problem leaving Font Book on your Mac. It will simply sit there and take up a small amount of disk space.
That said, it's still a nuisance having more than one font manager on your computer at a time. Say you disable all of the fonts in Font Book that you can. Assuming the fonts are still in the /Library/Fonts/ folder, you then turn them on and off with FAP. The problem then is which orders are the applications going to believe? Are the fonts active, according to FAP? Or inactive, according to Font Book?
Also, if you double click on any font to quick activate it, both FAP and Font Book will activate the font. So you will find yourself confused fairly often when you deactivate the font in FAP, but they still keep showing up in your applications as active. That would be because Font Book is still holding it open.
So if FAP is going to be your main font manager, then copy Font Book off to another disk for safe keeping (so you don't have to use Pacifist or an OS install to get it back on your system if you need, or want to), and then remove it from your hard drive.
Definitely don't remove the /System/Library/Fonts/ folder! If you remove Lucida Grande from its default location in any way, you will lose control of your desktop. The only way I can think that Taavi managed to accomplish this was moving files around booted to an external drive, or from another Mac via FireWire Target Mode. It's impossible to do on the same drive your booted to. You'll lose control of the desktop every time if you remove Lucida Grande. Although Taavi may have made his/her copy to the /Library/Fonts/ folder. That at least would still leave an active copy of Lucida Grande somewhere, but I highly recommend against that sort of handling of the system fonts.

WAD - printing to PDF

Hi all,
I created multiple WAD's in the 7.0 (with graphs, texts, analysis items,...)
When I execute them and right click to get the PDF-version (via print version) the pages in the PDF are split up in a bizar way...
If the analysis grid starts on the second page, it displays a part of the analysis grid, and the rest is displayed on a third page, but on the second page is still enough room... when it starts on the first page, it is displayed correctly and when another web item (for example static filters) is also displayed on the second page (before analysis item) it is also displayed correctly...
I think it has something to do with the print-template 0ANALYSIS_PATTERN_EXPORT but don't know what exacly...
anyone an idea?
ciao!

Cross tab analysis

Anybody knows how to do crosstabs in numbers?
thanks

Hi fercesar,
When you say tabs, do you mean the sheet tabs across the top of a document? Sheet 1, Sheet 2 and so on.
Each Sheet (canvas) can contain several objects such as Tables, Charts (graphs), Text Boxes, Shapes (graphic objects).
When you say crosstab, do you mean linking tables on different sheets? Linking a graph on one Sheet with a Table on another Sheet? This is possible. Please reply with more information on what you want to do.
Regards,
Ian.

I have several pgs to my spreadsheet. I have the same name on 1

I have several pgs to my Numbers spreadsheet. The first sheet to the spreadsheet is Safety & Ed 1, page 1, the second Safety & Ed 1 doesn't show a page, then the third won't let me change the name from Safety & Ed 3 to Safety & Ed 1. What am I doing wrong?
Also I wanted the date to format 00/00/00. I set up a Custom Date Format using that layout, but I had to actually enter the date 00/00/00. If I just entered the date using just the numbers it wouldn't put in the /. What am I doing wrong?

Hi Chester,
In a Numbers document there can be several Sheets (each Sheet is a "canvas" drawing area) and each Sheet can hold objects such as several Tables, Charts (graphs), Text Boxes and Shapes.
Each Sheet has its own Page Header and Page Footer where you can insert text such as Safety & Ed 1 and automatic page numbers. The page numbers will update with each page of paper from the printer.
If your document contains several Sheets, you can print them all, or one at a time.
Menu > File Print... (to see Print Preview)
The left field of the Footer is selected and ready to type a descriptive sheet name. The centre field of the Footer has "Page " (entered by me) before the automatic page number.
If you want to print all sheets, Print Preview has these options:
Call back for more help.

Dividing one worksheet by another

How do I divide the contents of one spreadsheet by the contents of another with corresponding cells?

Depends what you mean when you say "spreadsheet".
In Numbers, "spreadsheet" refers to a "spreadsheet document." If this is your meaning, then the answer is "You don't." Numbers does not support references to cells on other documents.
Nor does a Numbers document have "worksheets." Numbers does have "Sheets," but these are large blank 'canvases' on which you can place Tables, Charts (graphs), Text boxes, Shapes, Images and other objects.
Assuming you meant "Tables," here's an example:
The two tables on the left are the data tables. Values in Start are to be divided by the value in the corresponding cell in Divide by.
Results in the table at top right, To nearer hundredth, are the results (x) of the equation in the form x = a/b, displayed as rounded to the nearer hundredth.
Results on the bottom left table are the quotients (Q) of the division expression:
Q
B) A
with the remainder ignored.
Formulas:
Start: none
Divide by: none
To nearer hundredth: =OFFSET(Start :: $A$1,ROW()-1,COLUMN()-1,1,1)/OFFSET(Divide by :: $A$1,ROW()-1,COLUMN()-1,1,1)
Quotient: =QUOTIENT(OFFSET(Start :: $A$1,ROW()-1,COLUMN()-1,1,1),OFFSET(Divide by :: $A$1,ROW()-1,COLUMN()-1,1,1))
Enter each formula into B2 of its table, then fill right and down into the rest of the cells.
Regards,
Barry

Pluggin Help

I don't know if pluggins work differently than the normal Java projects. I'm guessing so though. Right now my code isn't throwing any errors but it just shows the GUI without any functionality of the button I have created. I would think if I could get the GUI running there must be something with eclipse to get the pluggin going. Here is my code.
// AvsI.java
//Creates GUI to eventually show Semimajor axis vs Inclination graph.

I didn't put in my Graph class. I think I tried that before and it said my post was to long. I'll put it in now, and try to use better spacing.
sorry about the spacing. I am programming on a different computer, and move everything to the computer using cd... not my choice but usb is dissabled.

How to change the text in the legend of a graph programmatically in labview

I have many graphs in one plot and want to show the legend the name of the graph (i.e. the filename). How do I change the text in the legend programmatically?

Create a property node for your graph. Use the property node "Active Plot" to define which plot (or line) you want to rename. Then write the new legend label to the property node "Plot.Name". See attached.

How to make text scroll in a chart/graph

I am trying to make a small example labview app.
I need to show a graph/chart with continuous data measurements, plotted over time. So far I have been using charts, since they suit my needs. I have seen though, that graphs are also a possibility. So if a solution calls for that, it might be ok.
Now I have two things that i dont know how to do. I have attached a picture of what i want to do.
I need to have time on the x axis, but i can only get it in the end points of the scale, can this be fixed (see the attached picture example)
I also need to mark phase starts endings. This means I need to have text scrolling along with the plot, keeping a white marker line at the starte point of the phase. Can thios be done somehow? I have already looked into Annotations, but I dont think thats it. (see the attached picture.)
If further explanation is needed, I would be happy to supply it.
Kind regards Daniel

One option with graphs is to right click the graph when the code is running, select "Create Annotation". This will add a label to the graph that moves as the graph updates.
An alternative, and probably prettier approach, was discussed recently here;

Hope that helps,
