I am using google column chart for a while and I want to display the vertical columns value at top of each column. I am able to get the tool tip value but my requirement is not concerned with the tooltip.
Is there any way to display column values at top of each column so that it is easier to visualize? I looked at the options but couldn't get to make this work.
Here is the link for column chart that I am using
https://developers.google.com/chart/interactive/docs/gallery/columnchart
This feature is highly sought after, but unfortunately still not supported by Google Charts.
After long striving with this, I've made a hack to the ComboChart (could work with BarChart and ColumnChart as well, with a couple of changes) to insert the labels into the SVG.

Tested on Firefox 21, Chrome 27 and IE 9.

I have a graph that shows the ratio (count) of payable vs. processed words among the total words on stacked bars. I would also like to display the same ratio in percentages in lines overlapping the bars.
At the moment I have them in two separate graphs, but I want to merge them so that it takes less space in my dashboard view. I am unable to select the dual combination view as it requires two measures and even though I keep trying to cmd+click+drag the percentage measure pill to my marks, it's only changing the calculations in the bars but not allowing me to select the dual combination view.
Since the percentages are basically the ratio of the green/total in the bars, I don't think I need any complicated configurations for displaying it, however, I am also failing to achieve what I want.
Could you please tell me how to do this visualization?
Edit: I noticed that the reason I couldn't generate the dual combination view was that I had three date pills (year, quarter, month), and by removing two of them, I'm able to generate the dual combination view, but it's far from what I'm looking for as it's only splitting the stacked bar into bar+line.
Neeku, I certainly understand the desire to minimize "real estate" in your dashboard. If I understand your needs correctly, I believe that overlaying a transparent-background chart over the first chart might meet your needs, if a dual-axis chart doesn't work for you (for example, if you wanted to overlay a line chart on a column chart that is itself already dual axis).
By way of example, here is a simple Sample Superstore dashboard with a line chart on top and a stacked column at the bottom.
simple dashboard
Change the line chart to "Floating"
Size it to fit over your column chart and change the background to transparent by clicking anywhere in the line chart and select "Format"
...Format Shading
...and "None" for the color selection
Your line chart is now an overlay, but it's pretty messy.
Click on the line chart and hide field labels,
...turn off "Show Header" for each pill in the line chart
Clean things up and it should look better:
Note: one big issue with this approach is that you will not be able to click to select chart elements of the underlying chart.
I have been trying to recreate a modified Sankey based on Adam's work with the American Whiskey Viz and Beatles Analysis Viz that are found here:
https://public.tableau.com/s/gallery/beatles-analysis
https://public.tableau.com/s/gallery/american-whiskey-wheel
I am trying to create the same effect on my own data set. I am not sure how Adam was able to line up the sankey portion with the bar chart perfectly. I have tried many different ID2 field configurations and varying metric fields in the Curve calculated field options with no success. I haven't been able to get them to line up exactly. I would also like my bases to start in different locations along the sankey and not all originating from the left.
I realize that the examples are working with much smaller data sets but believe that this should still be possible with my data. I have tried Business ID in my curve formula and wondering if I need to have a more generic metric in my model. Andy uses Song ID which is a number between 1 and 45. My IDs range from 3-3000. You can see in the workbook attached how I am setting up these fields to get the curve of the Sankey. Is it possible to get them to line up with the barchart at the top of Dashboard 2?
UPDATE 3/22/16:
I was able to get the lines much closer to their bars by modifying the Curve-LoyaltyID2 field. I loaded it to Public for easier viewing. Some lines are still not aligning directly to their corresponding bars though.

Thanks for any ideas you have!
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.
I have a column range charting and it works fine . I just want to display marker symbol on top and bottom for each dataLabels and make string among this symbols. I tried to use
marker:{
enabled :true}
but it didn't work

Column series doesn't have marker for columns. You can add serparate series (scatter) for each value.
Or try to develop some plugin to add this, like this one: http://www.highcharts.com/plugin-registry/single/2/Trackball (it's adding marker only on mouse over, but the idea is the same).
I want to show a line chart, each point in the line chart will refer to a user. So whomever looks at the chart understands who the user is, I'd like each point to have a picture of the user and the user's name. Does anyone know any API that will let me do that?
I was looking at googles line chart (http://code.google.com/apis/chart/interactive/docs/gallery/linechart.html) but I cannot see anyway for me to have each data point represented as an image.
Using Java and JavaFX, you can build a StackPane where you can put two charts (one above other), where the back is a LineChart and the front is a ScatterChart. In this case, these charts will share the same X axis and Y axis, and on ScatterChart you can personalize the points with a picture.
Look:

How to produce an application with more than one chart in a StackPane
I hope this helps you.
It seems counter intuitive to have different points on the same line of a line graph represent different users.
(Line graphs) show in a linear form one or more variables that fluctuate over a period of time.
I believe if there is more than one variable that would mean there would be more than one line, so it is hard to make suggestions without more information about your specific application. With the currently available data I would recommend amcharts's Column chart with images on top:
