Overlapping of data series in Combo Chart

Former Member

Hi All,

We are working on VC7.0

I have three data series elements and I would like to display them in a combo chart with two columns and a line .

( 1.Actual Gross Turnover - Column

2. Planned Gross Turnover - Column

3. Actual Gross Turnover prior Year - Line )

I tried with different options present there in Configure Element , but the two columns overlap with each other i.e the highest column is overriding the lower column.

Can someone help me out in this ?

Thnks,

NR

Are you sure that the Bars are overlapping ?

Just check the following:

1. See if the db column contains NON-ZERO values.

2. Do a mouse over and check what value is displayed, you should find it generally on the TOP of the bar.(Find values of two Bars like this using a mouse)

3. Try to stretch the chart horizontally

Hope it helps.

Hi Pasha ,

yes, i am quite sure that bars are overlapping and checked with the 3 options you have mentioned.

3. I have tried streching the graph horizontally but still the same display.

2. I did moved to mouse to the edge points of bar .. it only mentioned one data series instead of two

1. See if the db column contains NON-ZERO values ? ..

I am not sure of it but when deploying the model in VC , i got a warning message saying " Zero fill is checked without Max length in field "Gross Turnover Actual " of entity " query name "

Let me know, how this efffects the display and what do i need to do to resolve the issue .

Appreciate your valuable inputs ...

Thnks,

Well i mean, check wether the value in data base is a NON-ZERO. Somehow i feel you are unable to see the bar because of ZERO value at backend.

I never encountered such message.Is it possible for you to provide the screen shot of the output graph.

Hi,

Can you please check if the Data Series field of chart type "Combo" is set to be "Columns + Line" and not "Column + Line"?
