Specify chart series in iReports 1.1.0

2006-02-26 05:54

Hi All,

I have been trying to figure out how and where to specify the x and y axis for a Bar chart. I'm using iReports 1.1.0. In version 0.5.0 it was possible under the heading Chart properties -> data, but in version 1.1.0, I seem to be totally lost. Saw a few postings in the forum but was not able to make too much out of it. Please help !!

 

Thanks in advance,

Regards,

Piyush

Hi All,

This is for the benefit for all those who will be refering to this forum in furute. I was finally able to crack this part as to specifying the chart axis.

 

1.) Right click on the chart

2.) Select chart properties --> chart data --> details --> Add.

3.) Suppose you have 2 fields retrieved from the db, student name and marks and you want to generate a bar chart with these details; this is what you have to specify.

4.) Series Expression --> $V{SERIE_studentName}

Category Expression --> $V{SERIE_studentName}

Value Expression --> $V{SERIE_Marks}

 

The values specified in $V{} are the name of the series that you would have created under View --> Report Series --> New Series.

 

Hope this helps !!!!

 

Regards,

Piyush

iReport 1.1.0 uses the native support for chart provided by JasperReports. The tutorial in the free documentation (HTML manual) is outdated. I'll upgrade it as soon I find a couple of hours.
