Bar Chart Width

Dear All,

I am creating a dashboard and I am facing a difficulty in  resizing the chart bars. Please review the attached picture. I have 4 charts to display bon a single dash board but I would like to have same bar chart widths. Currently some bar charts are small and some are very big in width. I want them all in same width. Can someone please help?

Kind regards

Waqas Shah

You need to redefine the Graph size like Ctrl + Shift ??

I think the width of the bars are auto adjustable with the total size of the chart. So in case you have a bar chart with more value points than another one then the width of the bars in the earlier one might be less than the later.

Hello,

From what i know the width can't be changed...the only thing you can do is to show less columns or more and the graphic will adjust the width proportional with the number of bars within


Hope it helped,

Each chart must always have the same number of bars independently to the expression results or any selections. In general this could be reached with a calculated dimension. I think this discussion will be helpful for you: Re: Control Bar width in Bar Chart.

Yes, to expand on Anil's answer... basically you need to enable the design grid [View -> Design Grid] ...then select the object (it will get a black outline) and hold CTRL + SHIFT that will show you a little red border around the components. Click and drag (whilst continuing to hold CTRL + SHIFT) to resize. Release the keys when you're done resizing.

After you've sorted that, if you want all four objects the same size, click and drag around them all (until they are all inside the selection box) and resize one of them. They will all automatically resize to the same.
