Using the Advanced Graph Assistant (v7.6.9 HF4), I'm creating a "vertical clustered bar" chart showing two series. I can't seem to find the combination of settings needed to add commas to the numerical values displayed automatically when you hover over a bar. I've tried a lot of things -- no soap. If someone has a suggestion, I'd be grateful to hear it...

Thanks,

Craig

What is the format of your field? The D and F formats provide commas automatically.

Ginny:

Both of them are I11. I tried putting a "C" on the end to format them...

This works for me. Not done in AGA, though. I'll check out something I already have done and re-post.

Here is one done in the AGA with fields defined with the D format:

-*INTERNAL_PROPERTIES$SampleData=false;OBJECTID=GLOBAL
-*INTERNAL_PROPERTIES$GlobalRecordLimit=500;OBJECTID=GLOBAL
-*INTERNAL_PROPERTIES$FieldDisplayMode=label;OBJECTID=GLOBAL
-*INTERNAL_PROPERTIES$PrefixDisplayMode=;OBJECTID=GLOBAL

setTransparentBorderColor(getSeries(8),true);
setTransparentBorderColor(getSeries(9),true);
setTransparentBorderColor(getSeries(10),true);
setPlace(true);
ENDSTYLE
END

For each series, you can customize the text format or override using this API command: setDataTextFormat(value);

Hope this helps.

Ginny:

Thanks for your reply. I got mine to show commas, too, simply by removing all the API calls except the ones shown in your example. Of course, I lost all the other desired customization I'd put in, as a consequence!

Following is the original "ON GRAPH SET STYLE" list generated by the Advanced Graph Assistant. (Please keep in mind that a lot of these API calls must be as a result of my playing with the various settings in AGA -- turning things on and off, etc.!) Anyway, one (or more) of these calls must be stepping on my desired display format. Does anything here look like an obvious culprit?

It might be that one.

places.

Have you downloaded the wf76graphics.pdf manual yet? It has documentation on all of the API commands and is a good reference.

Ginny:

Yes, when I comment-out that line, I get the comma separators! Thanks!

And, yes, I will look into getting the manual you mentioned...

Craig
