Bar Chart values only show on top - cannot change

[texanfritz]

In C10, we have noticed that when displaying values on a chart (100% Stacked Bar chart) they appear above (or on top) of the bar sections. We would like to set the value to be centered, as we did in C8.

Any ideas where they moved that setting?

Hi,

You can not show values inside charts in Cognos 10. For that you have to use Legacy Charts. To use this charts in C10, follow the below steps;

1. Go to Tools menu.
2. Click on "Options..." (last option of tool menu).
3. In the appeared dialog box, go to "Advanced" tab.
4. Check "Use legacy chart authoring" box (2nd option)
5. Click "Apply" and "Ok".
6. Now drag your required chart and you will get all the options you got in C8.

Thanks.
