Line Chart - plot every result without aggregation

It seems like it should be simple.  I must be missing something.

I want to plot every result over time so i can show which ones fall out of bounds of the upper and lower control limits.

It works if I show it in a table even when hiding the unique id.  However, fast change to the line chart still averages over results that occurred at the same time.

I was able to correct the issue by moving the UCL, LCL and Median to reference lines.  This allowed the IDs to plot individually.  It was necessary to set them as separate expressions.  That was throwing everything off.

maybe you have too many dimensions in the straight table...the chart types are most times limited to 2-3 dimensions

The issue is when I show it as a line chart.  it works fine as a straight table.

To be clear, the line chart needs to plot every value even if there are multiple results at the same time.

e.g. if you have 5 dimensions in the straight table and use fast change, it will keep the 5 dimensions and the chart will not show the right results as the chart type cant deal with the amount of dimensions

Hi,

I think this is not possible with line chart to plot every single value. Could be possible with table box , straight table etc.

Also might help u:

The line chart needs to plot all results.  If it can be done with one dimension, that's fine.  Nothing is working.

Do you have a dimension which uniquely identifies each record e.g. Transaction No or ID? Using this as the dimension should show a line for every record.

Your Line Chart is not actually averaging where you have multiple values. It simply ignores multiple values and draws a line between the two adjacent points.That is an average of the two adjacent points not an average of the multiple values - unless they happen to coincide.

I think Line Chart is not the right choice of Chart Object for you. Maybe the scatter chart would work better for you. You can get the scatter chart - which is X,Y oriented to actually draw lines however you want if you supply the right values in the right dimensions and expressions.

Yes, I have time and transaction id as the dimensions. Transaction id doesn't display.  The expression is avg(result) so it averages over time.
