Jasper iReport - how to hide pie chart label border? - ireport

Is it possible to hide the black border of pie chart labels in iReport ?. I want to keep the values but not the black border. Thanks

I dont know the direct property on ireport, but you can do a customizer on the PieChar like in the example:

amcharts Overlay legend on a chart

How can I overlay the legend on a column chart without?
Would I need to use absolute positioning? If so, could someone provide an example?
Please see the picture below.
https://www.amcharts.com/docs/v4/tutorials/chart-legend-in-an-external-container/
I managed this by placing the legend in another container, then setting an absolute property and overlaying the div.
var legendContainer = am4core.create("legenddiv", am4core.Container)
chart.legend.parent = legendContainer;

How to change z-index of amCharts axisGuides

I am trying to visualize a filter in my stock chart by graying out data points which are affected by the filter. I'm using axisGuides on my valueAxis in order to achieve this. However, I also have axisGuides on my categoryAxis and unfortunately, these now disappear beneath my horizontal axisGuides.
Is there any way to change the z-index of those guides? Or does anybody have a different solution?
I have adapted an official amCharts example to show what I mean:
http://jsfiddle.net/wq97ujne/
I'm setting plotAreaFillColors": '#ababab' on my stock panel and fillColor: "#ffffff" on my valueAxisGuide.
I would like for the vertical guides to be drawn in front of and not behind the white area.
You need to set above: true for the categoryAxisGuides.

Tooltips getting cutoff in pie charts in highcharts

I have a pie chart which is being generated from a json string. The pie is getting created correctly but what is happening is the tooltip is getting cutoff when the text to be displayed in the tooltip is large. I have tried increasing the width and height of the svg area. But the charts are generated dynamically so i have no way of setting the chart widht and height dynamically depending on the content.
One can adjust the margins margin:[0,100,0,100], to shrink the pie chart so that the tooltips/labels will appear. This has been set to automatically scale the chart in Highcharts 3.0.

Increase Height and width of your chart div or put your code in jsfiddle if possible, so that we can get more idea
This example could be relevant to your situation- http://jsfiddle.net/4ac8b/1/. When you re-size the result pane you will notice the chart size changes accordingly.
You will need to set the size of your container so that the chart is drawn in that area itself. http://jsfiddle.net/4ac8b/. Even when you re-size the result pane the chart size wont change.
Change the diameter of your pie chart to allow additional information

Customizing Google Visualization PieChart look and feel with circular border and slice margins

I am using Google's Visualization API to create embedded Pie Charts in my web application.
http://code.google.com/apis/chart/interactive/docs/gallery/piechart.html
The API works great, I am just having a problem with the look and feel customization.
http://code.google.com/apis/chart/interactive/docs/customizing_charts.html
I can't figure out if there is a way to:
Make the border around a Pie Chart Circular and not rectangular
Editing the width and color of the pie slice margins/seperators?
Here is what I would do:
Using Firebug with Firefox select the chart and look at the CSS. Find the name of the border by selecting it with Firebug.
Next:
1.) Create a CSS to remove the border and embed the chart into a DIV with the border you want. Depending on browser compatibility you may want to use images instead of CSS for the rounded border.
OR
2.) Use CSS to change the border into what you want.

Extending chart functionality in SSRS

The default chart object in the SQL Server (2005) Business Intelligence Development Studio doesn't seem to some have formatting options like :
specifying the text direction of labels in the x and y axis
adding a trendline to a bar chart
arbitrarily resizing items in a chart - for example, if I resize the chart object, everything gets resized accordingly but I can't keep the size of the chart the same while extending the area of the legend for instance.
multiline chart labels
So what I want to know is
is there any easy answer to the formatting problems mentioned above?
what websites/books/resources/examples would you recommend I look
into for extending the functionality of the chart object?
Some colleagues of mine gave up on the stock control and bought Dundas charts
The stock charts are cut down versions of Dundas.
yes you can specify the text direction of labels in the x and y axis
Go to chart properties and in the tab x and y axis enter the chart title and in the title align use the combination like left/right/center align.
you can change the legend line go to the chart properties click legend tab inside this
there is an option for "display legend inside plot area" and you can include the trendline there
you can use multiline text labels when the text limits extends
I don't see how you can resize the legend, puting inside the plot area looks ugly for pie-chart
I'd recommend go with the dundas chart components gbn suggested.
If that's not possible at least this article should solve issue 1.
