Telerik Reporting Graph - charts

I'm trying to evaluate 2 reporting tools, SQL reporting and Telerik reporting, One of the thing my report should create are some charts. Here comes my problem. I would like to get a line chart that looks like this one created on my RDLC that is how I need it.
With Telerik I almost got the same graph but I still have some problems.
I can't eliminate the margins on the X axis (blue squares)
I can't find how to manually set the X axis interval (green square), searching on forums somebody sais that changing the scale property to DateTime Scale (It crashes my designer)
It is possible to move the axis with the ticks at the bottom of the chart (purple square) like it is on the rdlc chart?

At the end I got an answer on the telerik forum how to set the properties I was missing, if somebody is facing a similar problem the solution can be found here
Chart Xaxis Margin and label interval
The problem in the purple square is solved by selecting the Y axis, from the scale property select CrossAxisPosition, add an element to the collection and set the position atminimum.

Custom number format for y-axis on Chart

I have created a chart with 2 axes that acts as a panel chart (see image)
As a panel chart I only want to show the portions of the relevant y-axes to the chart next to them. For example, for the right-most y-axis I used a custom number format to exclude anything less than 0:
_(* #,##0_);_("";_(* 0??_);_(#_)
But for the left most y-axis, I'm stuck. I want to show -400 to positive 400. I've tried 2 different options, but neither is producing the desired effect.
[<0](#,##0);[>500000000]"";#,##0_)
[<0](#,##0);[<500000000]#,##0_);""
Here is the result I'm looking for:
I learned something new today (and a bit weird) regarding formats and chart axes
After some experimenting, this is what I ended up using:
[White][>500]_(#,##0_);(#,##0);0;
The odd part: When you change the Display Units of the axis (for me, millions), then the formatting no longer recognizes the original amount (500,000,000).
Once I figured that out, I was able to work out the solution.

SSRS sparkline with small difference in values

I have created a sparkline in SSRS. Since the values are small i get a straight line graph How do i improve the sensitivity of the graph.
the difference is like for every month
60.06
60.40
60.14
You need to look at the Sparkline Vertical Axis Properties.
Testing with data like yours and a simple Tablix/Sparkline I get results similar to yours:
Opening the Vertical Axis Properties I can see Always include zero is checked by default:
Unchecking this option has a major effect on the sparkline:
So this is one way of doing it. Other than that changing the Minimum and Maximum values here will also have an effect - you just need to play around and find the right combination for you.

iReport Line and Bar in same chart

I'm using iReport to try to create a chart for bug tracking. I need a stacked bar chart for the different severities of the open bugs by day and a line showing the total number of bugs by day. It's easy enough to build a multi-axis chart but it always shows up with distinct ranges on the Y axis. I want the Y axis to be the same range so that the total bugs line floats above the stacked open bugs bars. This is simple to do in Excel or Crystal Reports but I cannot see a way to do this in iReport. I need to be able to either merge Y axis in a multi-axis report or be able to change the series type of one of the series from stacked bar to line. Any tips/reading materials would be greatly appreciated.
It would be nice if it were more automated, but you can use a solution like this pretty easily:
Instead of calculating the Range Axis height automatically, create your own variable to decide an appropriate value for the maximum value. Then you can set the Range Axis Max Value to the same thing for both charts.

I3D Area Chart - I Need Series Labels Next to Chart, Not In Legend

SSRS 2008. Working with 3d Area Chart.
In Excel you can label the X, Y, and the Z Axes, but in SSRS I seem to only be able to label the x and y axes and the Z axis labels seem to be only go in the Legend. I don't want a legend though, I need to have the text describing each color area right next to it.
Thank you very much!
Since charting in SSRS 2008 is an implementation of Dundas I contacted their support department where I was told that the feature I'm looking fro does not exist in either the SSRS embedded version or the box version of their product for that chart type. I contacted other chart vendors and found anothe rbig one that does have the feature I seek, but when I attempted to us it in the demo, the results were illegible with no way to format the labels in such a way that they did not cover each other up. I have not yet found a product (outside of Excel) that is able to clearly display labels on the Depth axis.

how to set custom interval to horizontal axis in Flex Charts

I am trying to set custom step (interval) to my Line Chart's horizontal axis.
The chart gets its data from a grid. The grid has a lot of data and it is displayed accurately but because there are so many data points the horizontal axis is screwed up. I wanted to set a step on horizontal axis so that you get an idea when you see the graph without hovering the mouse on a data point!
thanks for any help!

heylo people!
I have solved the mystery!!!
just add a horrizontalAxisRenderers to your Chart
and set the property canDropLabels to true!
<mx:horizontalAxisRenderers>
<mx:AxisRenderer axis="{horiAxis_B}" canDropLabels="true"/>
</mx:horizontalAxisRenderers>
axis being the name of the axis
you are done!!
but if you still have questions, you can always contact me here:
