Empty Burndown Chart - visual-studio

I'm working with Visual Studio Team Services. I'm trying to build an example project with few sprints inside. I have declared all tasks in my Backlog Items, but I have no idea why:
Despite I declare effort for each task, I can see it only in the column
of the parent folder.
Burndown chart is empty. Can I somehow set previous date in the tasks? I need to fill my burndown chart with some data.

The iteration is in the future. It won't show a burndown chart until 7/3.
Also, it's called a "burndown" chart, not a "burnout" chart. "Burnout" has a very different meaning in English. :)

Burndown Chart not showing data when filter is applied for area path or iteration path

** EDIT **
I found a solution. Not a great one, but one that worked. I had to move all the stories from new to committed en masse. Once I did that, moved them back to new and now I can filter by iteration path on the burndown chart. Coincidentally, the sprint burndown works now as well. Equally as annoying and the same solution worked on both of these. For whatever reason, it didn't assign the team to the story till the story was committed in the back end...
** End EDIT **
I've been having this issue for a while now and while I've found more creative ways to work past this issue. It won't stop and now i'm in a situation where I need it to work.
The situation is pretty simple:
Platform: Azure DevOps
Problem: Burndown Widget loses data when filter is applied
When I apply a filter against a backlog for a team using either Area path or Iteration path, the burndown chart goes blank and says there isn't any data. But when I remove the filter I see the entirety of the backlog for the team.
I'm trying to show an exclusive area in the burndown chart which is a child of the main area which the team is a part of. I can see the entirety of the backlog assigned to the team, but some of these stories, 120 to be exact) are a part of another area/project under the same team's work space. It's a continuation of the same team/project with an additional scope, so there's an iteration also assigned.
Yet if I filter for area path, or iteration path, of which these stories belong. I get nothing.
The areas and iterations are assigned to the team in the team config. Suggestions?

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.

Tooltip showing junk values on hover - SSRS reports

Tool tip in SSRS is showing random junk values when hovered over chart area or even sometimes on the data points or plots. Here are some images to illustrate the issue. My question is - is this a bug in ssrs or are there some property settings I can set or is it actually related to my data.. Please help. Many Thanks!
PS: Sorry couldn't add the images because of reputation constraints.
Thank you Chris for the suggestion. I found the solution for this question. Next time onward I'll follow that.
The Solution:
The junk values of tooltip were nothing but values that had either been set or had got set at various levels of the chart- chart area , plot area, series etc. I just had to remove all except the series tooltip. It works fine now.

dc.js heatmap expanding data

I am trying to show machine states over time. Part of this is to reproduce/automate a report that used to be done by hand. It consists of coloring 2minute 'time slices' in Excel based on what the machine is doing.
(Sorry, not enough reputation to post a picture, but it is a classic heatmap where the state drives the color. Some non DC-JS fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/ww6Lbnc5/4/)
I was able to generate most of what I want in the following jsfiddle:
http://jsfiddle.net/hwhfxz2t/14/
See fiddle for code.
The total state duration (for selected time frame) is shown in the pieChart, followed by the individual state lines and then the heatmap that people are used to. (the ZOOM and date selection buttons do not work in the fiddle but are there to select specific data ranges or zoom in if you like).
The line charts uses the original representation of the states, which consists of a time the state is entered and a duration.
In order to make the heat map work, I had to (I think) take the original data and convert it into individual minute chunks and mark them with a state. So for instance the original data specifying:
RUN state starting 14:30 for 300 seconds
becomes:
14:30=RUN, 14:31=RUN, 14:32=RUN, 14:33=RUN and 14:34=RUN
The code in lines 233-297 loops through the original data and generates a new one that does this. In cases where there is more than one state within a given minute, the last state survives.
This works okay but it seems that this code is exactly what is normally done in group().reduce(add,remove,init). But in this case I need to add multiple timeslots depending on the duration of a state.
Also, because it is now using a different crossfilter, maps do not update each other.
Here are my questions related to this:
Can I display a heatmap without supplying information for all individual
'cells'? (i.e. straddle cells based on a value, similar to rowspan in a table)
Can I add multiple values at once inside group().reduce()?
Is there an easy way to invert the yAxis so 0 is at the top?
When clicking a row in the heatmap, it selects a column and vice-versa?
I'm not sure if this should be in the crossfilter group. If so please ignore my rambling. If someone knows how to keep the charts linked by grouping better, please let me know.

Concerning Question 3:
DC.js heatmaps currently do not support custom order functions on axis but there is a pull request that has been merged into the developing branch and should be accessible to the public soon.
You could manually edit the dc.js file to set the sorting in heatmaps to a custom function. In the latest (2.0.0-beta10) version it is the following line:
rowValues.sort(d3.ascending);
and accordingly
colValues.sort(d3.ascending);
