Initial position in bar chart

Wed, 02 Jul 2014 08:20:47 GMT

Hi Masters,

do you know how to set an initial position for the scrollbar in bar chart?

I have a bar chart with weeks on x-axis and it's set to show only 16 values, so I have a scroll bar to move up and down.

Since we're using NON-IE browser the chart need to update every time you move the scroll bar.

Moreover, the scroll bar is quite "unstable" and some users are experiencing accidentally change of position.

So, is there a way to set the "default" position of the scrollbar (i.e. current week)?

Thanks in advance!

Ps. I've read how to set scroll bar initial position on the right but it's not what I'm looking for!

No, unfortunately there is no way to do that. But you can change the dimension sort order on your Week dimension to display relevant weeks starting from the left if you want. May look kind of funny to go W6 >> W7 >> W1 >> W2, but it's possible.

Could you explain the application, please?

Does it just set the scroll bar to the right?

Hi,

Yes, It set scroll bar to extreme right and preserve it position.

Just go to presentation tab and select reversed. look at my app.

Thanks Ashfaq! But I need to set the scroll bar in a variable position, i.e. the current week, not in extreme right.
