XY scatter graph

Has anyone even remotely gotten Discoverer's XY scatter graph feature to behave like it does in Excel?

... nobody at all? Makes me laugh that they call it Business Intelligence

  • Why doesn't the scatter graph display properly??

    Hi,
    I've already posted a thread regarding scatter graph
    but nobody (not even from Macromedia!) has been able to give me
    an answer and I've been trying on my own since then, but to no
    avail!
    I refer to WhazzInAName said on Dec 31, 2004 at 9:51 AM on
    Cfchart
    Livedocs
    I copied only the scatter graph part, pasted it in a CFM page
    and run it. It displayed fine.
    However, if I try to add more than 1 value for a particular
    chartdata item, e..g.
    <cfchartdata item="25" value="99.357">
    <cfchartdata item="25" value="90">
    <cfchartdata item="25" value="65">
    The graph only displays the value 65, but not the other 2!
    I tried plotting the same values in an Excel chart and there
    was no problem at all. All points displayed correctly!!!
    What's wrong with this cfchart?? Why isn't it displaying the
    other 2 values???
    Also, there is no possibility with the chart in Report
    Builder to specify sortxaxis="yes" xaxistype="scale"
    yaxistype="scale", or is it available somewhere?
    Thanks and regards,

    Hi Ted,
    Thanks for replying.
    Too bad CF Report Builder can't handle such issues.
    Hope it's going to be
    MUCH BETTER with CF8?
    Thanks and regards,

  • Dates not recognised in scatter graphs

    I have some data consisting of date-value pairs which I want to graph on what I would call an x-y graph, but which some call a scatter graph.
    So I want each date plotted along the x-axis with the value up the y-axis.
    However, when I create a graph, Numbers doesn't recognise the dates as dates, so uses them as discrete categories, ie with each date equally spaced across the x-axis, even though the dates themselves aren't evenly spaced.
    For example, if I had dates of 1-Jan-14, 3-Jan-14, 15-Jan-14, 6-Jun-14, Numbers would space them all evenly.
    The cells containing the dates are properly formatted as dates. It's only the graph that doesn't seem to pick up on the data being date-based.
    I read various other threads which say this was a problem with earlier versions of Numbers 3 but was fixed (in version 3.1 IIRC). I'm using 3.2, and it's not fixed for me!
    I'm a UK-based user and therefore use international date formats (as opposed to US date format). Could this be part of the problem?
    TIA
    David

    Hi David,
    A Scatter Plot requires that X and Y are not in Header Columns. You can have a Header Row for the axis titles (but they don't appear as titles on the plot; not sure how to make that happen without manually entering the titles on each axis).
    X values need not be evenly spaced. X axis label values will be linear and will not be categories. Nor will they line up with individual X values (which is how a Scatter Plot should behave).
    Column B looks like it is a Header Column, but it isn't. That grey fill happens after clicking on Edit Data References (non-intuitive IMHO).

  • Using scatter graph type in oracle 10g forms using bi beans

    hi.. how i can use scatter graph type in oracle 10g using bi beans..
    it seems scatter graph is supported in 10g but it doesnt work at all..
    i used to use oracle graphics builder in oracle 6i forms,now i need to convert all my old graphs to 10g forms..the line,bar and pie it work very well but the scatter didnt work..
    so please if anyone know how to use it please tell me.. and what versions of bi beans support the scatter graph type
    thanks.
    u can email me in
    [email protected]

    Hi,
    What version of Oracle Forms are you using? If it is 10.1.2.0.2 (10g R2 Phase 2) then the BI Beans version should be 10.1.2.1 (3.2.2.0.24.2).
    When you run a Graph, do you see any version numbers?
    Regardless of the version, scatter graph should work. What kind of errors are you getting?
    When you install BI Beans in JDeveloper, you get access to BI Beans Help. Go to the following topic for setting up data for a scatter graph:
    Help -> Building Applications with BI Beans -> Presenting Data in Graphs -> Specifying Data for Graphs
    Did you try posting your question on the Oracle Forms forum?

  • Why the scatter graph doesnt show data?

    Hi,
    I would like to ask something..i use the latest version of bean with size 1.74 MB and i download it from the oracle site but SCATTER GRAPH didn't work with it.. it doesn't show anything from the data that have been sent to it..
    I saw in the sample code that comes with the bean (graph90 file) that the scatter type is new supported one..so does this version of bean support the scatter graph in oracle 10g forms? if yes what do you think that the problem might be ?
    Does anyone know what the problem might be and how i can fix it?
    Thanks alot

    Hello,
    I suggest you to use the Chart Designer (you can find it here : http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/downloads?rid=/library/uuid/e0a9ba90-0201-0010-d3a2-9cb376b5e181 ). A pdf document explains how building the XML data file.

  • Scatter graph point labelling

    Forgive me if this is the 1 millionth time this has been asked.
    I am using iWork 9.0 and specifically Numbers, I want to create a scatter graph.
    So a table looks like this:
    A 100 120
    B 120 100
    C 100 100
    I want to create a scattergraph with these points that each point is labelled A, B and C.
    On other parts of this forum I have seen that you can create and XY and drop the pairs in, but I can't seem to get the labels dropped in. So can someone explain this to be in simple terms (forgive me i have used Excel for years and have a little macro that does this for me).
    Thanks in advance.

    It might be easiest to see a screen shot but I'll try to describe it with words. You can't get different labels on the three points if they are all in the same column, as they will all be of one series. You need the Y data in three different columns.
    B2=100
    B3=120
    C1="A"
    C2=120
    D1="B"
    D3=100
    E1="C"
    E2=100
    Grab all the data B2:E3 and create a scatter chart. It'll look messed up at first because it plots the four columns as two sets of X-Y pairs. Where the data is highlighted on the table, click on the pinwheel and choose "share X values".
    Another option, of course, is to drop text boxes near the points on your chart with A, B, and C in them.

  • Coloring data symbols in scatter graphs

    Having created a scatter graph with 10 data points I would like to color each point differently. Does anyone know if you can do this?
    The complete data series can be colored, so ALL data points can be formatted but I cannot see how each point can be done individually.
    If that is not possible, how else can you notate or label each data point on that scatter graph so that they can be identified?
    Many thanks
    Mark

    We may have a different colors for each serie
    but can't have different colors in a single serie.

  • Convert a scatter graph with multiple data series into individual graphs

    I am trying to convert a scatter graph with multiple data series into individual graphs, with the series having the same formatting as in the graph when all series are together.
    Normally, if I delete any series, the color scheme for all the other series vanishes. I can then waste more time in having to re-adjust the  color and shape of the series, but this is tedious. This, I do not want. Is there an automated way to do this?
    Ideally, of course, all series would appear in little subsections in the space of the former one graph, all with individual axes, but I can't have all, so I'll settle with having several individual new graphs, each with just one series, and with the original
    formatting.
    Thx.

    How about creating a copy of the chart, and then setting all series except one to be transparent (no line, no marker)? Repeat for each series.

  • Overlapping dots in scatter graph

    Hi All,
    In a scatter graph the dots are getting overlapped when data will be same. I 'm doing a scattered graph based on a category . I want a particular category shuold not be overlapped by other category.
    I'm displaying data in alphabetical order. Still then the top most category is getting overlapped by other category.
    Anybody knows on what basis dots are getting overlapped.
    Please help...

    Hi,
    there's no automatic mechanism for detecting such label collisions in the scatter chart. However, you can change the position of each label (HorizontalPosition, VerticalPosition) and use point customizing to position several labels around this single point.

  • Other lines parallel to a Best fit line on a scatter graph?

    Can you put Lines of equal gradient to the best fit line on a scatter graph going through to points furthest above and below the best fit line?

    Simplified a bit so I am not so ashamed
    I2=SLOPE(C2:C9,B2:B9)
    I3=INTERCEPT(C2:C9,B2:B9)
    Y Linear (column D) =$I$3+B2×$I$2
    Y - YLinear (column G) is what it says
    Max Line (column E) = $D2+MAX(G)
    Min Line (column F) = =$D2+MIN(G)
    You have to format the "trend" lines with connecting lines and no data symbol

  • Add a trend line to a scatter graph

    for my physics work i had to plot a graph and i need to add a trendline to the graph. I have plotted the graph as a scatter chart but dont know how to add a line of best fit, please help

    Search "linear regression' in Numbers Help.
    The FORECAST() function can be used to calculate the end points for the trend line using the minimum and maximum X values in your data set for the x value argument.
    For example, with your data pairs listed in B3:B12 (x values) and C3:C12 (y values), add these values and formulas:
    D3: 0
    E3: =FORECAST(D3, C3:C$12, B3:B12)
    D4: =MAX(B3:B12)
    E4: =FORECAST(D4, C3:C$12, B3:B12)
    The data pair on row 3 mark the y axis intercept of the trend line.
    The pair on line 4 mark the position of the trend line where its x value is equal to the maximum x value of the data set. As plotting this pair may obscure the data point at this x value, you may want to move the trend line point to the right. To do this, add an arbitrary amount to the value in D4. The size of the added amount will depend on the scale of your graph.
    eg. D4: =MAX(B3:B12)+2
    If your data set includes negative x values, replace the formula in D3 with the mirror of the one in D4:
    D3: =MIN(B3:B12)-2
    Again, the "-2" is an arbitrary value used to extend the trend line beyond the collected x values.
    This will allow you to plot these two points onto your scatter graph as a second data set. I don't see a means of making Numbers connect the points, so you will have to add the line manually.

    Barry

  • Overlapping labels in Scatter Graph - Web Dynpro for Java

    Hi
    We have created a Scatter Graph in Web Dynpro for Java.
    The xValue and yValue are obtained from a node. We are showing a name as the label on each point so plotted on the graph through Chart Designer (Format->$Label).
    The issue we are facing is:
    We have 3 points with the same xValue and yValue. Meaning they plot the same point on the graph. But the name associated with each is different. These names are overlapping (as its the same point on the graph) and are hence not readable.
    Is there any way in which we can show multiple names/labels on the same point in a readable way?
    Is it possible for us to show a tool tip at each point where the tool tip contains the comma seperated names/labels associated with all the x and yValues at that point?

    Hi,
    there's no automatic mechanism for detecting such label collisions in the scatter chart. However, you can change the position of each label (HorizontalPosition, VerticalPosition) and use point customizing to position several labels around this single point.
