Cognos Analytics Dashboard - baseline in barchart - dashboard

I want to draw a baseline in a barchart visualization in a Cognos (CA 11.0.13) dashboard. The baseline is an average over a time period of six years. However, I'm not able to find out how to achieve this. I'm looking forward to an explanation!
Kind regards

You should be able to do this using a combination, line and bar chart.

Dynamics CRM Field Service. Colors of rows of schedule board

The rows of schedule board are white by default. I would like to apply colors alternation to them to make them look like these Excel rows on the picture. How could I do it?
How to add color change on hover? It works out of the box for cells of resources and the work order rows (see the picture), but not for the whole rows on the calendar area.
Last time when I checked with MS PG team on this topic - they expressed that it is aligned with Design principles of UCI. So no alternate row colors available in grid or calendar.
You can create an idea and based on community votes, MS may give that option in future. For now instead of manipulating DOM/CSS in any unsupported way, stay away from it. :)

Creating Gantt Chart in SSRS 2015 and Data Will Not Display

I have the following result set giving me a specific status of an item . I need to build a SSRS 2015 Gantt chart to represent this data. I am having difficulty getting the data to display.
Result Set: StatusDate,Status,BegDate,EndDate, StatusDays
In the chart, I want the category to be on monthly intervals of the range provided (BegDate – EndDate) and the series to be each DAY in the range provided (BegDate – EndDate).
The bars should represent the item being Up or Down with “Up” being Green and “Down” being black for each day (x-axis) of each month (y-axis).
Hoped for Results
The current preview shows the X & Y axis' correctly, but does not show any "bars" to represent the data.
This is my first chart using SSRS and I am quite lost. Does anyone know where I can get a true tutorial on Range Bar Charts for SSRS 2015 or how I might overcome this “data Display” challenge I am stuck on? I appreciate any direction / guidance offered.
This issue was ultimately resolved by #AlanSchofield through another (and probably more clear) question, found here.
After choosing the correct chart, setting the correct properties, and determining the correct values I was able to get the chart I needed, but the behavior was still off. It would not show the a status more than once.
To fix this, and simply put, I needed to sort my data using Dense_Rank and then add the new "sort" column to my Series Group in the Chart properties. Worked like a charm!
Also got some useful guidelines on this blog post.

Show 35k items in time line diagram with SAP VizFrame / d3.js (Performance)

I want to present my large time series dataset with approximately 35000 items in my time series line chart. I use the SAP UI5 VizChart which builds on d3.js.
The performance for this large dataset is very bad. Every time I want to zoom and navigate the application hangs for a few seconds.
The VizFrame loads the complete dataset, although I don't net it every time, because my section is much smaller. But if I want to have an overall overview, is there any way to display the diagram correctly without integrating all 35k data points? Mathematical? d3.js method?
I get the data via an odata service. Would it be sufficient if I hang a limit parameter or similar to the odata url? Thanks!
Edit: I have to use the VizFrame which based on d3.js but I don't know how I could use d3 methods directly. The documentations of VizFrame are very bad...

Percent Metric in Kibana 4?

Hey I'm using the elk stack to store and view test results. I want to see a nice display something like this:
_Pass_____Fail_
99.99%___00.01%
However I can't find any way to do this. Is this possible in Kibana 4? I feel like this is a very basic feature that should be available...
You can certainly display the count of pass/fail in a table. Displaying the percents isn't possible in Kibana 4.0 or 4.1
If you need a visualization of the percentages, you can use a pie chart or a bar chart in percentage mode.

Connect points in DHTMLX scatter chart

I have about 500 XY points which I would like represent as line using DHTMLXChart. Apparently the only suitable chart (scatter) do not allowing to do it. Any idea how to solve this issue?
There is no native way to do this.
You could use line chart with markers:
Example
Ok on that confirmation you're not bound to a DHTMLX, I would go with Google Charts it's based on opinion, but more importantly on functionality.
The Google Charts API is very easy to work with as it takes raw Javascript data and applies it to the chart and that data may be shoved into multidimensional arrays or as I prefer, JSON Data.
Additionally the Google Charts API has what you are after which is located at https://google-developers.appspot.com/chart/interactive/docs/gallery/linechart or alternatively...
https://developers.google.com/chart/interactive/docs/gallery/scatterchart
P.S. It may be a hefty documentation to read, but learning Google Charts API pays dividends and this would Replace DHTMLX instead of being an additional plugin.
Hope that helps.
