Defining the Physical Appearance of a Chart
You can define the physical appearance of a chart. To define the physical appearance of a chart
- Complete Step 1 through Step 5.
- In the Object Explorer, expand the Chart tree, and then click Chart Element.
- Define the Type property using values from the following table.
|
|
AxisLabel |
Displays an axis label along each axis with one label for each division of the axis. You cannot define more than 49 labels on the X-axis. If you define more than 49 labels, then Siebel CRM does not display any of these additional labels. |
AxisLineGrid |
Displays a grid that simplifies reading a chart. You can set properties for the entire grid, such as color, width, and visibility. You can set properties for each axis. |
AxisTitle |
Displays a title along each axis with one title for each axis. |
Graphic |
Displays a line, rectangle, or ellipse to emphasize a region of the chart. |
Legend |
Displays a list of colored rectangles with accompanying labels on the left side of the chart. |
Plot |
Displays an area that contains the graphs. Siebel CRM typically displays this area in the center of the chart. |
Title |
Displays a large text string. Siebel CRM typically displays this text at the top of the chart. |
Font, Font Color, or Font Size |
Sets the font, font color, or font size for most Chart Elements that contain text. |
Fill color |
Sets the fill color of the chart and the Plot Chart Element types. |
Using Properties of the Chart Element That Apply To the X-Axis Label
If you define a list of X-axis source fields, then do not use the following properties of the Chart Element that apply to the X-axis label. These properties are relevant only for one X-axis field:
- Coordinates
- Display Format
- Divisions
- List Of Values
- Sort Specification
- Text
Defining the Text of the X-Axis or Z-Axis Title
If the by combo box includes a list of source fields, then Siebel CRM determines the text of the X-axis or Z-axis title dynamically from the combo box selection. It overrides the value in the Text property in the AxisTitle chart element for the X-axis or Z-axis when it displays the chart in the client.
