Formatting Bar Chart that will serve as a Legend for another Bar Chart

vvira1316 — Sat, 10 Dec 2016 02:29:14 GMT

Hi,

I need help with formatting a bar chart that will look like legends for another bar chart. It will be part of a solution to question posted in Help with bar chart for legends, bar colors, axis step size

I've created a bar chart with [TL Event] dimension and Expression constant = 1 I got chart as seen in screen shot below but I will like it to look more like Legend so I can arrange it for another chart (TimeLine) that is also seen in the screen shot included

I'll appreciate any help / guidance.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Vijay

I would use a table-chart for an external legend. Per attribut-expressions you could color the background from the dimensions/expressions and you could add some extra-informations in further columns maybe the quotes or the achievement of objectives which aren't possible within the bar-chart or would be there too much cluttering.

Hi Marcus,

Thanks for your inputs. It is definitely better option than bar chart.
