[CLOSED]Curved Reference Line?
Is it possible to have a curved reference line? In the code below, I want the reference line to move with the max.seats for each maker. I do realize I could use a new series line instead of a reference line, but I like the way the reference line is labeled on the chart instead of in the legend as it would be with a series. Thanks!

 
GRAPH FILE CAR
SUM 
MAX.SEATS NOPRINT
CNT.MODEL
BY CAR
ON GRAPH PCHOLD FORMAT JSCHART
ON GRAPH SET LOOKGRAPH VLINE
ON GRAPH SET STYLE *
COLUMN=N2, GRAPH-COMMAND='setReferenceLineValue(getReferenceLineY1(0),$VALUE)', $
*GRAPH_SCRIPT
setReportParsingErrors(false);
setSelectionEnableMove(false);
setTextRotation(getO1Label(),1);
setDisplay(getReferenceLineY1(0),true);
setTextString(getReferenceLineTextY1(0),"Max Number of Seats");
*END
ENDSTYLE
END

Hello Evan,
I am a little confused by your question. In what way do you want the reference line to curve, and why?

Thanks,

Evan,

you can't.

Like you said, make a new series. But I think you can add a extra annotation ( without a line ) and perhaps dynamically align it with the first value of your newly created series?

G'luck.

If you curve a reference line, doesn't it cease to be a reference line?

Thank you, I will look into adding an annotation.

I wanted the reference line to curve as the max number of seats changed from model to model. What I want to do, is have the user be able to compare whether or not their value (not calculated here)is above or below this line.

In WebFOCUS, it appears it DOES cease to be a reference line Smiler
