Srinivasan_MunuswamyGraph Legends
Hi ,
I want to create a pie graph , wherein the legends need to show all data columns. For example if I have two columns
column1 - Percentage of allocation,
column2 - Sector for which the percentage calculated.
The graph should show the legends with these two columns formatted with borders like a tabular format.
I have tried to create boxes , but still I couldnt achieve the full output as box size also need to increase based on the number of series.
Also the graph legends needs to in the format like
legend column1data coulumn2data
I have tried the graph creation with Advanced graph and also tried to use some of the API's using the graph manual by IBI. Iam not able to figure out any solution.
Please helps me in this.
Also let me know how can I upload a sample image so that you can get an exact feel of the report required by me.
Thanks in Advance,
srini

Clinton Side-KickSrini,
Not sure what you are atempting to do here.
Are you attempting to create a border around the legend area?

Did you think of using a compound report?
make the pie graph as you like and create a separate table.
Combine these two into one report (HTML or PDF)
The advantage is that you can create drill downs on the tabel elements to give user more detailed information. (that's a selling aspect)
To show a graphic example here can be done by uploading your graph to a public website and link that to here with the URL.
There are several public sites that give you this possibility.
look at this site

Thank you Frank!!!
I am also doing the same by making two reports graph and table and combining them.
The report looks untidy when the number of series gets increased, tabular report is increased and to make the synchronization of the series color with the color image in the tabular report is difficult. If you can suggest me any alternative for this, it will be of great help.
I am not able to send the pics from my office premises as tinypic site is being restricted.
I will post the graph by tomorrow in that site.

I will wait to see your example and think it over meanwhile
