Is there a way to display flags in a Highstock chart only when the chart is zoomed in past a certain point (ex. the range is less than 3 months)?
If not, can the flags be set to only appear when the range-selector is set to a specific value?
Thank you!
You can catch the setExtremes event and then use addSeries() to add flag series.

I would like to know what are the settings capabilities on workshop charts when implementing multiple layers.
Here is an example of a chart with 2 layers (3 objects):
Among the global settings options, I would like to know:
how to have only one legend per group, instead of one per layer?
how to manage colors? Is it possible to change default?
is there any way to display dotted lines for example?
Thanks in advance
how to have only one legend per group, instead of one per layer?
Currently all the legend "flattens" all the series across all the Plot Layers and there isn't any way to change the grouping. If you really wanted to, you could use a couple metric widgets in List or Tag mode and build your own legend alongside the chart, assuming you'd made overrides for all the potential series and series segments (see below).
how to manage colors? Is it possible to change default?
Yes, you can change the color for each series on the chart. If the series has no "Segement By" config, then you can choose the color directly. If you choose to segment by some other property, then you need to add a Segment Display Override for each segment value that you want to change.
is there any way to display dotted lines for example?
You can change the style from solid to dashed in the same place that you can change the color
I don't want to mess with the graph itself, but I want to change the axis tick so that it reads a different value. Right now my axis looks like 0, 1, 2, 3....24. I want it to look like: 0-1,1-2,3-4...23-24.
Is it possible to just change the text without changing my graph?
Thanks in advance!
One way to implement this would be by converting your column in to a discrete value and changing the alias for value 0 to 0-1, 1 to 1-2... and so on.
Hope this helps.
Another option is to create a calculated field and return the range based on the values. This gives you more control if you would like customize your range in the future. There will be an issue with sorting which you will need to work out.
I'm trying to create a pie chart in Cognos BI that shows complete labels. I can't figure out how to do this. I have included an image that shows how the current report truncates the labels and places three dots (...) at the end of each label. I have a couple questions:
Can what I want to do be accomplished?
Why does every label end with "..." and can they be eliminated?
Update: I'm running Cognos BI 10.1.1
I don't think you you can absolutely prevent it. But you can make the text longer. In your chart, select the label. In the properties, under general, you'll see Text Truncation. Click the ellipse by it. It's probably set to the default of automatic. Change it to manual, and you can put in whatever number of characters you want it to show.
Keep in mind that this can end up giving you some kind of funky looking charts. The hover will show the full value of the column if you need to be able to see it on demand.
One of my uses of Kibana is related to displaying some information in certain cases only (say when a value is unexpected and exceeds a defined range). This element is therefore either shown or hidden from the dashboard, and displaying it could be considered as displaying an alert. I would prefer if the related pie chart was filled in red, rather than the default green.
Any ideas on how to do this?
Assuming you are describing Kibana 3, if you want terms panels pie charts to use different colors, you will need to make a code change.
There is a way to have custom colors for your pie chart. In order to do that you'll need to create a "hits" panel and pick the "pie chart" as the display. The color of the pie slices will be determined by the color that you chose for the queries that they track:
My SSRS report does not show all the labels on the horizontal axis. Please see below.
Note how the red arrows point to the few that do show. So my question is, where are the rest of the labels? Each bar should have one.
For the chart I'm adding number data for the bars, and another field for the Category Groups. That field in Category Group is for the labels.
Does anyone know why some are missing?
Also, a second but less important question, why is the order of the bars not the same order as the dataset?
The problem here is that if there are too many data bars the labels will not show.
To fix this, under the "Chart Axis" properties set the Interval value to "=1". Then all the labels will be shown.
Go to Horizontal axis properties,choose 'Category' in AXIS type,choose "Disabled" in SIDE Margin option
It looks as though the horizontal axis (Category Group) labels have very long values - there may not be room to display them all. I suggest changing the labels to have shorter values.
You can set the sort order for the Category Groups in the Category Group Properties - Sorting section - this may have been previously set; if not, I suggest using this to sort as desired.
(Three years late...) but I believe the answer to your second question is that SSRS essentially treats data from your datasets as unsorted; I'm not sure if it ignores any ORDER BY in the sql, or if it just assumes the data is unsorted.
To sort your groups in a particular order, you need to specify it in the report:
Select the chart,
In the Chart Data popup window (where you specify the Category Groups), right-click your Group and click Category Group Properties,
Click on the Sorting option to see a control to set the Sort order
For the report I just created, the default sort order on the category was alphabetic on the category group which was basically a string code. But sometimes it can be useful to sort by some other characteristic of the data; for example, my report is of Average and Maximum processing times for messages identified by some code (the category). By setting the sort order of the group to be on [MaxElapsedMs], Z->A it draws my attention to the worst-performing message-types.
This sort of presentation won't be useful for every report but it can be an excellent tool to guide readers to have a better understanding of the data; though on other occasions you might prefer a report to have the same ordering every time it runs, in which case sorting on the category label itself may be best... and I guess there are circumstances where changing the sort order could harm understanding, such as if the categories implied some sort of ordering (such as date values?)
Really late reply for me, but I just suffered the pain of this problem as well.
What fixed it for me (after trying the Axis label settings and intervals from those screens, none of which worked!) was select the Horizontal Axis, then when you can see all the properties find Labels, and change LabelInterval to 1.
For some reason when I set this from the pop up properties screens it either never 'stuck' or it changes a slightly different value that didn't fix my issue.

To see all dates on the report;
Set Axis Type to Scalar,
Set Interval to 1
-Jump Labels section
Set disable auto-fit
set label rotation angle as you desire.
These would help.
