In WebFOCUS 5.3 I need to detach all slices of a pie chart and I can't find how to do that. I don't know, in advance, the number of series in a particular chart. To use setPieSliceDetach, it seems one needs to individually detach all series. So, I need some method to reference all series in a particular pie chart. Any thoughts? Thanks in advance.

Bob,

You are correct. Each slice must be detached individually. You can simply include enough lines to ensure that any data-set is handled. The ones you don't need will not cause a problem during execution.

I will accept a New Feature Request for creation of a new API that detaches all slices, so feel free to open such a case with our support organization. I would envision something like "setPieSliceDetachAll(true|false);".

Hi Bob,

Just following-up on the status of your posted message to Focal Point. Have you had a chance to review Larry's suggestion? Would you like to make a New Feature Request for creating a new API that detaches all slices?

To make a New Feature Request, you will need to open a new case with Information Builder's Technical Support Help Desk and make the request. You can either call Tech Support at 1-800-736-6130, or access the online system InfoResponse at http://techsupport.informationbuilders.com.

Hope this helps.

Cheers,

Kerry

Hi Prarie,

I heard from Larry that to date we have not received such New Feature Request (NFR). If you or anyone would like this, please contact Information Builders' Customer Support Services and open a case to submit the NFR. The phone number is 1-800-736-6130, or access the online system InfoResponse at http://techsupport.informationbuilders.com.

Hope this helps. Smiler

Cheers,

Kerry
