How-to: Put one slice per detail record in a Pie Chart.
2.
For a Bar or Line Chart based on a detail table, you also have to select a Category: one
data field (in the detail table) of which the values will appear under the bars or the line; in
other words, on the x axis.
3.
Next to Values, select data fields with a numerical value.
Tip
The Toggle non-numeric fields button filters non-numeric fields from the list. The
list will then display only Integer, Float and Currency data fields.
4.
Adjust the label of each of the selected data fields as needed: click on the label and type
the new one.
In Bar and Line Charts with Data Fields as input data, these labels appear under the x-
axis of the chart.
Note
Labels are used in the legend. They will be visible when the legend is enabled.
5.
Select a color for each of the selected fields. Click on the color to open the Edit Color
dialog (see "Color Picker" on page938).
Note
Colors defined in the Chart Properties dialog override the colors set in the script. To
open the Chart Properties dialog, right-click the chart after adding it, and select
Chart.... See: "Enhancing a charts' design" on page686.
