Print chart with conditional display

francisvandergr — Fri, 18 Mar 2011 12:33:04 GMT

I have a question. I have made an dashboard with 6 charts on it. I have build different conditions on every chart

chart1 : getfieldselections (Report)='name report 1'

chart2 : getfieldselections (Report)='name report 2'

So the chart1 is only not hidden when 'name report 1' is selected.

I also made a report with chart 1 on it. My problem is now that on my print, chart 1 is visible when i select Chart 1 on my dashboard. But in my report it must always be visible. Can someone help me ?

Thnx

Francis

Hi Francis, did you ever find a reasonable solution to this problem? I have the same issue. Thanks in advance.

Francis,

You can try this:

1. Take a copy of the second chart on a seperate sheet (preferrably a test sheet hidden from the user)

2. Remove the conditional display expression for this chart and set the chart to Always display.

3. Add this chart in your report (along with the chart that your report is already printing.)

This way, the copy of the second chart will always be showing the same value as the original chart.

But since this new chart you created does not use conditional show and is added in your report,

when you print the report, both Chart 1 and Chart 2 will be printed.

Hope that helps.
