Has anyone found a practical way to do multiple drill-downs on pie charts and/or bar graphs? We have a customer that is needing this capability.


thanks in advance,
Robert

Are you wanting to choose from a list or are you just wanting to run multiple reports from a graph.

We need to show a list like in a report with multiple drill-downs.

Thats a feature known as Knowledge Mapping. It is part of the WebFOCUS' UAS/MRE.

Hi,

For Version 5.3, Chapter 14: Creating Knowledge Map Reports of the Creating Reports With Graphical Tools manual (DN2102020.0904), covers Knowledge Mapping.

Hope this helps.

Interesting solution but as far as I know, you can't pass amper-variables with Knowledge Mapping. It will only pass what's in the graph itself. I have little knowledge of KM. Of course, I could concatenate all of the variables and place this column in the graph with a NOPRINT. Then you would have to parse it out in the calling procedure.

Fortunately, we found another solution that satisfied the customer's needs.

thanks to all for responding,
Robert

Hi Robert,

I just raised a support call to ask the same question and got the following response:

"We have not yet researched what would be involved in implementing multi-drill for GRAPH FILE. Consequently no decision has yet been made with regard to adding this functionality and therefore no specific release has been designated as the target for such a feature. Discussions on releases following 7.1 will begin after Summit (June timeframe). We will be able to more accurately assess if and when this feature will be added at that time."

Would be nice wouldn't it ?

Rob.
