Pie Chart question

Thu, 09 Aug 2012 11:34:47 GMT

Hello everyone,

So I have a Pie Chart with one dimension and 2 expressions. Both expressions have the same formula, I want one of them to show the ammount while the other should show the percentage. At this point, both values are shown outside of the Pie Chart. Is it possible to show one value on the outside and another one inside the pie? For the bar chart there is the "Plot values inside segments" option, in Properties -> Presentation, but I cannot find anything similar for the Pie Chart.

Thank you,

Bogdan

Hi,

I think this isn't possible, if you don't like the numbers to appear together you could check the option "Show Numbers in Legend" in Presentation tab for the first expression and "Values on Data Points" for the other.

Regards,

Cesar.

Hello Cesar,

Thank you for your response. Yes, I can uncheck that option but it would not help me very much since I will still need to display both values, units and percentage...

Setup both the expressions as required and then group them. You will at least be able to toggle quickly between what expression is displayed, using the group changer

Bogdan,

Both values will be displayed, you can see the numbers in the legend and the percentage in the pies or you can do Sid's suggestion to alternate between the 2 expressions.

Cesar

Sid, Cesar,

Thank you for your help. Since I think there isn't an actual solution to this problem, I will need to work around it. I'll try to see which one looks better and build the chart according to that.

Thank you again,

Bogdan

Create a text object whithout Label in the expresion put the ammount valor and put it in the site that you need.
