TeeChart in ReportBuilder ignores prouping - teechart

I am using TeeChart within a ReportBuilder Report and am now facing a problem:
Lets say I have a Report with a DataPipeline containing a table with two columns.
Now I grouped by one of the columns and put a TeeChart into the group content.
The ReportBuilder is now creating the groups as espected - however, the TeeCart within
the group content always uses all data from the pipeline (nongrouped) non the less - resulting
in repeating the very same (heavily overloaded) TeeChart within each group.
What is the best current practice here?
Is there a way to make the TeeChart to "respect" the grouping or do I have to create a Subreport in each group?
Many thanks and best regards.

Digital Metaphors are who develop, support and maintain the integration of TeeChart into Report Builder. I don't know if they support some kind of connection for the data in the report and the chart.
I'd suggest you to take a look at the TDBCrossTabSource in TeeChart. As you can see in the Summary grouping data section in the Tutorial 8 - Database access, TDBCrossTabSource supports grouping data by a field.

Cognos: filter alternative?

I've defined a report in Cognos Report Studio.
I've also exposed this report in IBM BAM Business Spaces. I've used Report Viewer widget for that.
This widget allows end users to remove filters defined for the report. The data security is preserved (FGS applied), but they can access irrelevant data for specific report.
I would like to disable this (removing filters). Unfortunately this build-in widget is not allowing that.
As workaround I'm trying to use some other technique than filters to limit the data. I was trying to apply the filtering within the slicer.
My data is quite flat, and the data item I want to filter is not defined as dimension. That's probably the reason why it's not working for me.
I have a table with multiple columns.
My slicer definition:
filter([A_Events Query Subject].[ATracking_Events].[Status Code],
[A_Events Query Subject].[A_Events].[Status Code] = 'Q')
Anyway, all data (not filtered) are shown as a result.
Any idea how this can be solved?

how to set dynamic header using BIRT?

I am newbie to BIRT and unfortunately my first task is over complicated.
I want to create table like this
Birt Report Snap
the columns in this picture must be dynamic. the data for the column name is in database and I have to fetch it and create columns on the go. 2nd to put values against it.
kindly tell me if this thing is doable in birt. I am new to this so please don't give negative ratings
thanks.
I believe what you are looking for is called a Cross Tab Table.
Here is a tutorial video on it: BIRT - Cross Tab Table
In addition to SBurris answer, which is the way you should try first, I can assure you from my experience that what you want is in fact doable with BIRT, and even in two different ways.
However, some of the minor aspects might be a bit quite tricky for beginners, e.g. the merged cells in the column header, the different background colours and border widths for the columns. So, these style aspects shouldn't matter at first, you can tackle them later.
The first, by far easiest and standard way to achieve this kind of report layout is a cross tab, as SBurris said.
The second option is - depending on the database backend - to use a "normal" Table report item in they layout and to "create the cross tab" with SQL.
This is more powerful IMHO as the BIRT Cross Tab report item, but also more complicated.
For examples, see here:
Pivot / Crosstab Query in Oracle 10g (Dynamic column number)
Pivoting rows into columns dynamically in Oracle
How to do Pivoting in Oracle 10g
(you get the idea)
To use this with BIRT, you'll have to select the column title values in addition to the cell values.
You have to decide how many columns do/should fit on your page (if you're using PDF output).
You can use the maximum aggregate function in the visibility expression of the columns to hide empty columns.
If the number of logical columns exceeds the number of columns for a single page, you can extend the idea further by dividing the cross tab into several, each with at most N columns.
However, note that this approach will need an experienced BIRT developer...

Crystal Report Groups Duplicate My Values

I'm trying create two groups from two different tables. I choose create new crystal report (As A blank report) then i create two groups like following images:
Then I'm choosing the table. I'm doing this once again with another table i want.
My Crystal report design look like this:
Now my Result is this:
But I want to take this result:(This result is painted)
Maybe it looks like easy for you, but i need a helping hand for solving this.
I choosed link options(Full inner join)
In Design Form
The grouping functionality within Crystal maintains the data relationship and makes it easier to read by not repeating the group text for each line item - if you group by "A", you will see all items, including the "group 2 duplicates" so long as they are in group A. Adding a second group will further refine the subset of results.
This is the intended and expected behavior for Crystal - SQL-level grouping is different and is used for aggregate functions, among other things.
If you are trying to create a multi-column report, look at this
Can I make a two column Crystal Report? - Under Section Expert, go to Details and click the box "format with Multiple Columns", then click Layout at the top and enter the detail size, in inches, as well as the gap between details. if you want your groups to continue in the additional columns, click the "Format groups with Multiple Column" checkbox.
If this does not satisfy your requirement, you may have to reevaluate the report requirements and the dataset limitations.

Text values are not reflected on dashboard on SonarQube

Hello,
trying to use SonarQube 5.1 for custom measures.
Created several custom measures, including int and text values. Assigned them through custom widgets to project and was thinking the data will appear.
Specified values through web service api.
The values for custom measures are not appearing until you start next scan. How we can have data available immediately as meausre has some data?
After scan the data for integer values appear but not for text values. I see measure with text values are assigned for the project but they are not shown for the project. How to make them visible?
Thank you.

ssrs questions regarding drop down menu and dataset

I am using SSRS through VS 2010 and have the following questions:
Can I define a drop down menu without defining a dataset?
I have a dataset defined, is there anyway to add "manual" values to this dataset? The background requirement of this is that the report query is based on this dataset. However I want to have an option in the dataset where it says "all" in order to allow the user to see everything instead of narrowing down results based on the dataset.
Thanks,
Bruce
I am a newbie to SQL Server reports and found my answers:
For the first one, can simply create a table and use a dataset on the created table with customzied values.
Same goes for the second one, the manual data can be added to the table itself.
