Chart Shown on Group - Limit to Group Data Script

The Chart Shown on Group - Limit to Group Data script can be used to restrict the data displayed in a chart on a Group Header or Footer to that of the Group instead of using data from the entire Report.

Chart Shown on Group - Limit to Group Data Script

Good to know:

  • This script is only available for charts located in the Group Header or Footer bands of the Report. Reports without a chart in the Group Header or Footer bands do not have this script as an option in the Script Wizard.
  • If there is only one Group Header or Footer, the band is automatically selected in the Script Wizard.
  • If there is only one chart in the Group Header or Footer, the chart is automatically selected in the Script Wizard.
  • Added scripts can be viewed in the Scripts tab.

To add a script to a Report using the Script Wizard:

  1. Open a Report in the Report Designer.
  2. In the Action toolbar, click the Scripts button.

    The Script Wizard opens.

  3. Select the script, and then click Next.

    The Chart Show on Group properties window opens.

  4. Define the following properties:
    1. Band: The band of the Report housing the chart (example: IncidentDurationInDaysRounded_Group_Header is the Group Header containing the chart).
    2. Chart: The chart the script runs on (example: chart2 being the only chart available in the Group Header band).

  5. Select Finish.

    A notification window opens informing the User that the script has been added.
