I'm working with Tableau desktop.
I created a view with 2 graphics (same Axe Y), and I'd like to create a filter on the values of the first graphic only, without affecting the second graphic.
Is it possible ?
Thanks for your help.
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. :)
I am trying to insert the images in one of my crystal sub reports. I have tried the following steps:
Insert a placeholder image.
right-click the graphic -> 'Format Graphic' -> 'Picture' tab -> Add a formula under 'Graphic Location'(basically given path of the images from the table).
Run the report.
I all my images get loaded as expected except for the first one. In place of first image, the place holder image is displaying only (which is undesired). I am unable to understand where I am committing a mistake. I am new in crystal report any help this regards will highly appreciated. I am basically developing a Windows application with Visual Studio 2010 and I have CR runtime version CR13_3_0_3.
There may be a number of causes for this problem.
Please try to do the following:
Right-click the graphic -> 'Format Graphic' -> 'Common' tab -> Make sure "Can Grow" is ticked and "Lock Position And Size" is unticked.
Try enlarging the section size so the picture could fit.
Make sure whether the formula that brings the picture from the table is 0-based or not.
You can try switching between a picture that does show and the one that doesn't in order to understand whether the problem occurs due to the picture itself or is it something with your report configuration.
My development environment at work is not sufficient to process ALL of the data in my cube. It continually brings down my dev box. I have open tickets within my own IT so I am not asking about that.
I have add filters in my DSV to limit how much data is processed, but now I only want to update the metadata within my cube so the next time I process the cube it uses the new DSV defintion.
Is this possible?
Found the answer, in the DSV right click in the white space and choose refresh. See a blog here where I found the solution.
So I've recently had to create a report that emulates a Canadian customs form. The problem is that the report is printed on 11" x 14" paper, but uses a metric layout. As my FoxPro installation is on a machine with US-English units-of-measure, FoxPro tries to oblige by using an English ruler, and doing snap-to-grid on inch-based measurements. This creates some minor design issues obviously.
I understand that the reports are really just tables in disguise, and I have figured out how to turn on the Metric ruler (instead of the English one) by changing a record, and that is working as intended. However, the snap-to-grid functionality appears to want to snap on 48 units-to-an-inch, instead of something Metric. So moving a box around using a mouse results in the box being offset (again) in English measurements.
To get around this, I have taken to openning up the report as a table and manually converted all Metric units with a spreadsheet, and entered the offsets and sizes by hand. While this has worked well and appears to be very accurate, it's still error-prone.
So the question is, how do I get FoxPro 8 to snap-to-grid in Metric units on the report, so that I don't have to keep re-entering numbers by hand? It would be nice to get FoxPro to accomodate Metric in a fashion where I can align objects in the report using a mouse, rather than punching them in as numbers and "flipping" the report into design view to check it.
For reference, currently there are the following translations:
25.4 mm = 1 inch = 10,000 report units = 48 grid snap points
Obviously I'd like something closer to this:
25.4 mm = 1 inch = 10,000 report units = 25.4 grid snap points
Note: Yes, I have considered setting up a Virutal Machine with FoxPro that uses a Metric install, i.e. a Windows XP install set up for Canada. However, that will take another day or so to get the installation done, along with the rest of the development environment, so I'm trying to avoid that.
Hidden unless you've been exposed to more of it...
Modify your report.
Right-click, get to properties of the report.
On the tab for Ruler / Grid, there is a combobox which is defaulted to ruler of "inches", but you can change it to Metric/cm or Pixels. Below that is your grid snap and you can change the default of how many pixels to snap to.
Additionally, if you use your cursor keys, you can move the controls one pixel at a time for more precise alignments as needed. And if you need to resize a control's width, if you hold the Ctrl key down and use the arrow keys left/right, will shrink / strecth one pixel at a time instead of moving the control. Likewise for the moving and sizing if you pick multiple controls, they will ALL move or resize respectively.

Just spoke with a freind lastnight who has VFP8 installed. Based on that version, there MIGHT be a way to get metric for your reports. There is a setting on the reports from showing based on PIXELS, or SYSTEM METRIC. If you system configuration is based on inches, so too is the report. If you change your system metric to that of centimeters (or whatever equivalent it would be), so too should the report respect in design time.
