hide dimension values in trellis

kristof_j — Tue, 06 Oct 2015 14:23:26 GMT

Is there a way to hide the dimension values when you use a trellis.

In the picture below you see missing values which take a lot of space.

And is it possible to adjust the axis for each dimension?

Now I don't need the have 60 on the axis, only for the second graph.

Ok it is possible to make 3 different graphs but I want it to be automated because the number of values isn't fixed.

And it is possible to make one graph and with a selection box but then you lose the overview 🙂

Hi Kristof,

Maybe this document which I made for the community can help you

You could clear the show legend checkbox on Properties | Dimension. That would suppress the display on all the charts.

If you want a scale on one chart only you might want to overlay a filtered chart with the x axis legend displayed. Use Shft-Crtl click to drag the display part of this chart and resize the object so that only the legend displays with a transparent background to the same size as the trellis charts. If the now invisible expression is the same as one of the legend charts, it will rescale the same when selections are made. This does assume that the trellis charts all have the same x-axis range.

It is not the dimension values i'm worried about, it's the white space the generate.

Take 'sky', it has 3 dimension with missings and only the last dimension has information. I don't need to see the 3 others.

Thx Piet,

and do you know how I can remove all the white space?

ctrl + shift doesn't work anymore.

There was something with that, just not sure what it was anymore. If I find out I will let you know, in the meantime I've copied the trellis chart from the trellis document on the community to your document and changed it to your chart settings.

The resizing in this chart does work!
