Building and Dragging Charts onto a Frame

Create the chart to be spotlighted and move it onto a frame. The chart must be a vertical bar, horizontal bar, or pie, and cannot contain z-axis (depth) values. Other chart types cannot be spotlighted.

*  To build and drag chart onto a frame:

  1. Use the Interactive Reporting document from the Creating Summary Tables procedure.

  2. From the State_Color table, create a chart and name it.

    Design mode is enabled.

  3. Drag the column (for example, State) to the x-axis, and drag the column to use as a comparison (for example, Revenue_Sum) to Fact (y-axis).

  4. Create a frame to hold the chart.

    For example, name the frame State_Revenue.

  5. Drag the chart onto the frame and format it.

  6. Press Ctrl+D to exit Design mode.

  7. Save the document.

Note:

Charts that include a z-axis (depth) value cannot be spotlighted.

Tip:

Ensure that the legend for the chart is set to the x-axis.
