How to customize a business graphic ?

[Former Member]

Hello,

I have succefully created a business graphic which displays columns.

My question is how can I set each column's value as a label on top of of the column so the value will be clear to the user? I am sure there is a way to it through the chart designer but I can't find it...

Hi ,

If you insert simpleseries the you won't get that option.

Anyway in case of simple series just set the lable property along with Value property.

Oh, I do use simpleseries. What is the difference between simpleseries and a series?

Hi,

The Series object is used to specify a more complex data series. You can use this object for displaying data series if you do not want to display a category-based chart or if the number of data series is not definite at design time.

The SimpleSeries object is used to specify a simple data series. This object should be used when:

1. The number of data series is already determined and known at design time

2. The chart is category-based and each point has only one y value

Hi,

You need to set the lable peoperty of the seriesPoint .

Ex: Create a BG -> Inser Series ->Insert Point

You can find attribute "Label" for the SeriesPoint .

Set this property to a context attribute and populate the context with different values so that it will display those values .

Dear Anilkumar,

After inserting a serie I don't have an option to insert a point.
