Chart Report Type Options

The following options are available for Chart Report types.

Chart Type Toggle

To toggle between a Column Chart and a Pie Chart, expand the Charts menu and drag and drop the desired chart type into the Report Columns section of the Dataset Designer. The Dataset Designer Report Columns refreshes with a preview of what the selected chart will look like.

Note: This is a preview of what the report will look like.  To see the actual report click Run Report.

Captions and Color Palette

Enter a caption for the X axis in the X Axis/Category Caption field and for the Y axis in the Y Axis/Data Caption field.

Change the color palette for the chart by expanding the Color Palette drop-down menu and selecting a new color scheme.

Chart Example

In this example, Organization Name is on the Y axis and Badge Name (of the registrants) is on the Y axis. 

Every single Badge Name does not display on the Y axis of this chart.  However, since everyone who registers for an event is required to submit a badge name, it is a great way to get a count of the number of registrants from each organization by dragging and dropping the Aggregate Function Count to the column for Y axis/values.
