Chart: Problem with Total (sum) in Expression

[#1]

Hello everyone,

I have a chart that looks like this one:

I would like to have another chart line displaying the total of all current lines, to achieve this:

However when i try to add a new expression with the total using this Set Analysis

SUM({$ <Life = {"*"} >} ExtGSV$)

It seems it removes the other 4 lines and i am left with this result, only total is displayed:

Please help me, i have attached an example to better understand.

thanks a lot in advance for your attention and help.

the first chart on the qvw file (att by you) is exacly what you are asking for

isn't it?

i cant find the problem you've got:/

only looks like the expression is missing (becouse the expression generate the same result)

check it by changing this chart from line chart to straight table

thanks for your reply Pari,

the first chart is what i am after. see below:

but it was created limiting each line using a separate expression using the following

for the total:

SUM({$ <Life = {"*"} >} ExtGSV$)

for each line:

Sum({$ <Life = {'A(<50%)'} >}ExtGSV$)

Sum({$ <Life = {'B(50-70%)'} >}ExtGSV$)

Sum({$ <Life = {'C(70-85%)'} >}ExtGSV$)

Sum({$ <Life = {'D(>85%)'} >}ExtGSV$)

however doing it this way it will not be possible to drill-down clicking on each line and this is a problem.

I would like to be able to obtain the same result using a single expression to display the 4 lines for (LIFE) using this Sum(ExtGSV$)

and add another expression for the total. i have tried using SUM({$ <Life = {"*"} >} ExtGSV$) but as mentioned it doesn't work.

In my example on the second bottom chart if you disable the first expression (Total GSV$) you will see the 4 lines appear correctly but when i try to get the 5th line with the total it doesn't work.

hope you can better understand me.

thanks

you did't say you want to drill down before:)

if you want to drill down you should prepare group dimension

you wrote:

Sum({$ <Life = {'B(50-70%)'} >}ExtGSV$)

Sum({$ <Life = {'C(70-85%)'} >}ExtGSV$)

Sum({$ <Life = {'D(>85%)'} >}ExtGSV$)

can you answer what you want to see after "drill-down clicking on each line"?

clicking on each line should create an equivalent of a selection and therefore if i click on one line will filter/display data in other objects based on the selection. For example if i click on the green line it shall filter by 'Life D(>85%)'.

If i use the following as in my example won't work.

for the total:

SUM({$ <Life = {"*"} >} ExtGSV$)

for each line:

Sum({$ <Life = {'A(<50%)'} >}ExtGSV$)

Sum({$ <Life = {'B(50-70%)'} >}ExtGSV$)

Sum({$ <Life = {'C(70-85%)'} >}ExtGSV$)

Sum({$ <Life = {'D(>85%)'} >}ExtGSV$)

thanks
