How was this specific chart created in Power BI? - charts

I am using Power BI for my business intelligence reports and I came across this nice chart in a Power BI Report.
Unfortunately, the author did not provide any information on the type of chart used (or how he created it). I have tried searching for the chart in the Custom Visuals gallery of Power BI (Custom Visuals) but could not find any chart which was a close match to it.
Any information or links on how to create it would be highly appreciated.

The example chart is a Ribbon chart and is not custom visual, but is a standard visual in Power BI from about the May 2019 release.
An example file on how to use it is here

How can I get the default Power BI Report Server branding zip file?

I need to change the default branding of our instance of Power BI Report Server (PBIRS). I've read a few articles on how to do this (e.g. Guy in a cube do a good video on YouTube). However, is it possible to get the current default settings?
I'd like to use the default settings as a starting point and also back them up in case I make a message of the UI.
I have seen default branding packages for SSRS but the colors are different for PBIRS.
Any ideas? Thanks.

Dynamics CRM Map Chart no map Charts

In Chart map Config , there are no default map charts, and when i create a new one i can only create pie, line, bar etc charts.
I am using this ;
Dynamic CRM Map Chart
Should there be an option to create a map chart?
Is there a good tutorial on how to do this.
Can someone help me with this , please.
Point me in the right direction.
CRM charts dont support maps out of the box.
The only maps you can you use out the of the box are Bing Maps for specific addresses, and even this requires setup. http://blogs.msdn.com/b/crm/archive/2013/10/22/enhanced-bing-maps-experience-in-crm-2013.aspx
What you have linked to is a third party add-on, so you are best speaking to them if you want to know how it works.

How to integrate ECharts with BIRT/Pentaho?

I'm looking for a report engine which may:
connect to data source via JDBC
create logic data set by grouping/aggregating the raw data
include a data filter on the top of each report, which allows my client use the report interactively
add custom charts, in my case, it's ECharts https://github.com/ecomfe/echarts
support multi-tenancy paradigm (new requirement)
Now BIRT and Pentaho are the two players on my table.
For pentaho, it's really hard to find useful document to at least clarify if it's capable. Please if you're familiar with it, let me know if pentaho community version meets my requirements.
For BIRT, I've found evidence it support my first 3 needs. But for custom charts, I can only find examples/docs about adding custom IMAGE/SVG charts. As ECharts is based on canvas, I'm not sure if it's possible to integrate ECharts with BIRT.
Thank you!
Yes, it is possible to integrate javascript charts in BIRT. Basically:
Select the top-level element of your report outline -> Script tab -> clientScripts
Include here your echart resources (.js and .css) using "head.js" (see link below for more informations)
Add a text element to the report
Set the type of this new element to 'HTML'
In a script tag, initialize your echart object in a "head.ready()" instruction (see link below for more informations). The tricky part is to understand how to use a server-side dataset in a client-side chart within this html script.
You can find more informations and a full example of a such report here, this example embeds a jvectormap in a birt report. Furthermore, see a live demo here, where a JIT chart is integrated in a BIRT report.
However since these charts are created using a client-side framework, obviously BIRT won't be able to export them in PDF format. You can see in the live demo linked above, how a BIRT report can easily handle a different output when users export to PDF.
You can do it in Pentaho, but which tool to use it's a matter of debate.
Using Pentaho Report Designer:
- Connects to DBs using JDBC;
- Allows grouping rows based on a field or fields and calculating functions such as running sums;
- Can use selectors (single or multi-valued selectors) to interact with the report, passing the selector values to the queries;
- As far as I can tell, you don't have many options to choose a specific charting engine.
However, you can use CCC as the charting engine, which is a Protovis based Javascript charting engine, cross-browser compatible (for the most part), renders SVG charts with a decent fallback for IE (I believe the fallback is flash but I'm not sure if it changed recently) and produces decent looking charts.
If you HAVE to use that chart library, then I suggest using C-Tools dashboards instead, where you can embed as many different JS files you want and you have full control over the JS and CSS of the page. But most of the reporting functions from PRD will have to be implmented by you.

interactive jasper reports

I am using jasper reports in my project to generate html reports. But the generated reports are static. Now we want to add some interactive features in it, like simple sorting and searching of columns. This is preferably to be done the client side. How can this be achieved ? So far I have tried to embed jquery into the generated report with no luck. Does jasper report provide such kind of functionality?
Use parameters and re compile the report every time you want to filter the data.
With your meaning of the word "interactive", nope that is not possible. A report is only a report - a presentation medium that shows data in such manner that is required by the business rule. You can format data here. You can stylize it, add image and what not. A client side application is probably what you want.
Well, your exact requirement can be achieved if you publish the Jasper Reports on the Jasper Server. Once published, all your reports become interactive (For Charts, you must use the PRO charts and not the basic HTML charts but for tables, it works automatically.)
Once you publish it on the Jasper Server, the features that you get are:
Sort button with various types
Export the Report to many formats (PDF, XML, etc - more than 10).
Zoom IN and Zoom Out.
Bubble for your charts making them interactive, etc.
Yes, interactivity is possible in Jasper Reports, but the thing is that you need a Jasper Server Pro or Enterprise version for achieving this. If you are using a community version, it is impossible to create interactive reports. You can download the free trail pro version of jasper server for 60 days from this link https://www.jaspersoft.com/download

Choose according to your requirement.

Drill down from chart Legend

I'm building report using SSRS 2008 (Report builder 3.0)
I'm afraid I know the answer but still wondering if there is a way to link to Drill down report from the Legend area ? I know I can do it from the data labels.
Did anyone succeeded to crate some workarounds?
I won't claim this as my own but as soon as I read it I felt silly myself. ;)
Basically use a tablix next to your chart.
