I have 2 graphics questions:

1. I have a request to produce a line graph for 13 weeks in a quarter. My graph is something like

SUM SALES ACROSS WEEK ACROSS DAY.

The problem is it is producing a vertical line from the x-axis to the data point. My question is how do you get rid of this vertical line (7 days X 13 weeks = 91 vertical lines is too many)?

2. the second question for the graph above is:

The x axis label is trying to repeat the value of week for each day,

Is there a way to suppress this?

Thank you in advance for any assistance.

What version is this?

IMHO it is not yet possible to do an double accross in a graph.

The graph is working. If I open it in the painter it goes to seven graphs.(for seven days.) Thank you .

There is a command in the Graphing API which lets you tell the graph engine to skip labels on the X axis. I cannot remember what the command is off hand but i'm pretty sure this will answer question #2.

then I think your command is not

ACROSS WEEK
ACROSS DAY

but

BY DAY
ACROSS WEEK
...
or
BY WEEK
ACROSS DAY

Secret,

In order to skip grid lines you can use the following:

-* This is the automatic setting for label skipping
setO1LabelAutoSkip(1);
-*==========================================
-*
-* This is the MANUAL setting for label skipping
-*setO1LabelAutoSkip(2);
-* You then have to give a value to setO1LabelSkipCount to decide how many labels to skip
-* This can be done by having a preliminary TABLE find out how many x-values there are
-* and calculate the skipping number. Try both and see
-*setO1LabelSkipCount(4);
-*setO1LabelSkipBegin(0);
