cycle plot

[#1]

Hi

Just a quickie as I don't think this is possible.  Is it possible to shoe horn a standard chart to create a cylce plot (http://www.cvast.tuwien.ac.at/sites/default/files/cycleplot-technique.png).  I suspect this may only be possible by creating an extension

which is beyond my abilities....

Thanks

Oli

PS Not the chart in the top right of the image.

QlikView can certainly do some of it... Post a data sample, and I'll see how far I can get.

Hi Henric

I am honoured

I have attached some sample data and am really interested to see what you can produce and how.

Thanks

Not sure I like what I produced...

This chart is tricky since a second dimension in a line chart will be "stacked" and not "grouped" - and you want it grouped. So I had to combine Year and Month into one dimension. And use a color function to "break" the line.

But doing so, creates other problems: I was for instance not able to make the calculations in the UI, but had to precalculate some things in the script.

Hence - a kludgy solution...

You may not be very impressed with your own work; however I think you have done an incredible job with something I believed to be impossible without external help.  It shows you know this tool inside and out.  I will certainly pick up a few tips from this.

Hi

I know it´s been a while since you posted your question but here is a post  from my WordPress Blog about using a QlikView extension for  Cycle Plots.

The text is in spanish but there are screenshots that you might find interesting.
