Title: Show data in chart legend / missing values
Post by: Sunchaser on 28 Mar 2011 09:58:39 AM
Hi all,

Here is a strange new problem for me: I'm trying to use the basic property "Show Legend Value" of a Pie Chart.
But it seems that values of at least one of five series are missing.

I don't really understand what is happening behind (the rest of charts are OK).

Does anybody have experienced something equivalent ?

Note: Cognos 8.4.

Thanks,
Vinc.

Hi,

For the moment, I would tend to say that I have a king of bug with the following result:
. when trying to show the values in the legend of a chart (at least for a pie chart), the values of the last series is never displayed.

I made a work around with a "fake" series added to the chart, which is in fact a dataItem with expression = 0, and managed to hide it with color white in chart and no caption.

This is surely not nice, but will temporary solve the issue.

If somebody have a better idea, I'm still interested, thanks.

Regards,
Vinc

How many series that the pie chart need to show, if is too many, the value might not be able to shown...
