Y Series Grouping and colors [message #362817] Tue, 27 May 2008 09:58 Go to next message

Hi,

I have created a bar chart where I put a "verdict" column from my database
as an "Optional Y Series Grouping". I have noticed that it is possible to
define that the first value will get a specific color, say green, the
second will get red and so forth.

My verdict column can cotain one of three values "passed", "failed" and
"not tested". I would like to link these values to specific colors to make
sure that "passed" always is green, "failed" always is red and "not
tested" is white.

Now I have the colors green, white, red in that order in my series palett
and then I have group sorting = descending on my verdict column, so it
works when all verdicts are present. But I have a report parameter that
offers a possibility to only show "failed" results and these bars will
then be green. I would like them to be red.

Any suggestions on how to link a color to a specific db-value?

Thanks in advance,
Anders

Anders,

Can you try adding a script to the chart like:

function beforeDrawDataPoint(dph, fill, icsc)
{
importPackage( Packages.java.io );
importPackage( Packages.org.eclipse.birt.chart.model.attribute.impl );

if( dph.getBaseValue() == "Pass" ){
var mycolor = ColorDefinitionImpl.GREEN();
r = mycolor.getRed();
g = mycolor.getGreen();
b = mycolor.getBlue();
fill.set(r, g, b);
}
}

Hi Jason,

Thanks for your answer. I didn't get it to work with
if( dph.getBaseValue() == "Pass" ){
but when I tried
if( dph.getSeriesValue() == "Pass" ){
it worked.

Don't know the acutal difference between basevalue and seriesvalue.

Anyhow ... finally I fixed the legend as well using

function beforeDrawLegendItem(lerh, bounds, icsc){
if (lerh.getLabel().getCaption().getValue() == "Pass" ){
lerh.getFill().set(0, 128, 0);
}
...
}

Just thought I might share it if someone else looks for similar info.

Once again, thanks for helping.

Regards,
Anders
