I have a column bar chart which displays values for each month. As per the requirement, January column must be blue, February must be orange, March must be green, April must be pink. These 4 colors would repeat for the remaining months.
View 5 RepliesI have a column bar chart that displays counts based on category (month-Year). I have used an expression to sort the category data also.Â

I have to color format the bars in set of 4 colors. I have used SWITCH statements for other charts and it worked. But here in this case since it is a date field, I am getting error.
I have a report in which I have assigned custom colors with a function to one of my stacked column charts. When I run it in the report builder, the colors are correctly placed, but as soon as I upload the report to the server and view the report from there, the colors get swapped. I have these custom colors applied to other stacked column charts in the report and they work perfectly fine. The only difference between this chart and my other charts is that it contains two category groups.
EDIT: Alright, I have gotten it to display the correct colors by using a function with the colors I wanted in reverse. I have two values, "Upcoming" which is displayed in red, and "Outstanding" which is displayed in blue. If the chart has only upcoming values, it will display in blue rather than red, whereas if I have upcoming and outstanding values, they will display in their correct colors. why this is occurring?
I am working on SSRS column chart which has one series that is quantity
I have added a stripline based on Quantity value > 500
Now I want my column to have 2 colors.
for portion above quantity 500 = RED
column part below quantity 500 = GREEN
How that can be done
Hi all,
Hopefully someone can clarify for me. I'd like to use custom colors for a chart that I have created. I've seen some code examples but I'm not really sure what to do with them. I've been using reporting services for like 2 days and I don't know xml or vb script, so I apologize for the probably stupid question. Thank you in advance.

I have created a linked report in which I have two screen:
First Screen: Clicking on the bar of particular country the details of that particular country should be visible (the second screen)
Second Screen: When I clicked on a bar. All the count values are very well correct. In first chart Count of values under one bar "Pending decision"(yellow) was 337 for a country and in second screen its 337 again(shown in light green bar).
<!--[if !vml]--><!--[endif]-->
Problem: My problem is to make it sure that the colors that the first screen is having for particular status (as shown in the legend) should remain same in second screen also. For example for a status say "pending decision" the chart is using yellow color, so in screen two as well it must be shown with yellow color and not with lany other color. Can anyone help me in this context. Is there any way to customize colors used by bar chart. Please note that the question is not about using appropriate color scheme(palette) the question is how to "capture/ Re-use/ customize/ pass as a parameter" the colors used by a bar chart in SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services.
Is it possible to fill color within SSRS donut chart. For Example, based on overall status column RAG Status, it should fill the color.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a 2012 report builder chart that has two series (one area chart and one bar chart) combined into one chart. The problem I'm having is the bar chart has much smaller numbers than the area chart and the scaling is messed up.
Is there any way to put the bar chart on the right axis and keep the area chart on the left axis? My goal is to increase the size of the bar chart in relation to the area chart.
Also, is there any way to make the bar chart color red if the number is negative and green if it is positive?
I have a chart with series that needs conditional colour for three conditions. One condition must be transparent. I have tried the various IFF or SWITCH expressions below and some work fine in SSDT but when I deploy them to the browser the formatting is lost. This simple IFF expression works. The series is transparent as required both in SSDT (Visual Studio BIDS) and IE11 and Firefox browsers but I need two other conditions.Â
=IIF(Fields!ExhibitionID.Value = -1, "#00ffffff", "Red")
Both of the expressions below work in SSDT (Visual Studio BIDS) as expected but when deployed to the browser none of this formatting is rendered and all series are in blues even the ‘transparent’ series. No red at all.
=IIF(Fields!ExhibitionID.Value = -1,"#00ffffff", IIF(Fields!ExhDepartment.Value = 27,"Orange","Red"))
=Switch(Fields!ExhibitionID.Value
= -1,"#00ffffff",Fields!ExhDepartment.Value = 27,"Orange",(Fields!ExhDepartment.Value <> 27) AND (Fields!ExhibitionID.Value <> -1),"Red")

I have a matrix report and as per the requirement, I must format the row colors. First row must be no color and second row must be light blue. This color formatting would repeat for remaining rows in the matrix. I tried to select the entire row in the matrix, selected "Background Color" option and in "Expression" window, I entered "=IIf(RowNumber(nothing) MOD 2, "White","LightBlue")".This resulted in the color formatting of columns in the matrix report.

View 7 Replies View RelatedWe are using SSRS 2012. We have a report that conditionally formats a background color for some cells. The report renders properly in a browser and in Excel 2003 format. In Excel format all cells after the first one that meets the condition are highlighted, even if only one cell should.
The sample expression that triggers this condition looks like this:

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have created range bar chart and I am not able to achieve the following tasks.
1. Change X-axis Label Format to Quarter:
I have x-axis with dates and y axis of project groups. I have changed x-axis interval type = month and interval=3.

Set the Maximum = Â Max(ProjectEndDate) and Minimum = Min(ProjectStartDate).
Now my chart showing 3 months x-axis interval dates in mm/dd/yyyy format. I want to change this interval date format to Quarter. The problem is LabelsFormat property is not recognize  the "=Q or q or quarter" and also not accepting the expressions. How can I achieve this?
2. Placing series side by side when it is not overlapping
I want to place the same group series side by side only when the previous project end date is less than next project start date, otherwise place the next project to next row. How can I achieve this?
I am displaying the red line in the beginning of the current week column in the matrix table. But for few resources the red line is missing. For Example in below screenshot, refer the 'Adrian Larkin' resource. Here is the SSRS report border expression which is comparing the [TimeByDay] with the current Week First Monday Date to display the red bar -
=IIf(Fields!TimeByDay.Value = DATEADD("d", -(WeekDay(Today(),2))+1, Today()), "Red", "Black")"
Here is the dataset result set. If you refer the column [TimeByDay], it has no record for the date 11/05/2015 for the Adrian resource as he has no assignment for the date 11-05-2015.display the red missing line red bar using the expression or any other solution.
Need to be able to change the color of the columns red for negative values and Green for positive-- Im thinking that this will have to be a custom code scenario and not a expression-- any suggestions??

View 2 Replies View RelatedI need some help regarding Custom Colors implementation for Charts in the Reporting Services.
What we are trying to do is to make every color for every Series(see example below) to be a customized Corporate color.
For example each of the series on the Chart should be in specific Custom Color:
Series 1 - "LightBlue"
Series 2 - "LightYellow"
Series 3 - "DarkBrown"
All I found from MSDN is how to do it in the Chart Properties in a Code section (right click on the report outside the chart -> Properties -> Code tab -> paste the Custom Code ).
And then to use it in the Chart color definition as:
Code Snippet=Code.GetColor( Series# )
But we are trying to do it in a separate C# class that would be updated only in one place, instead of changing 30 reports each time something is changed. So that it could be generic.
The C# class:
Code Snippet
namespace CustomColorPalette
{
public class CustomPalette
{
public CustomPalette()
{
}
public static string GetColor(string GroupingValue)
{
int groupingValue = int.Parse(GroupingValue);
string[] colorPalette = {"Green", "Blue", "Red"};
if (groupingValue < colorPalette.Length)
{
return colorPalette.GetValue(groupingValue).ToString();
}
else
{
return "Black"; // if # of Series is more than defined - all undefined will be = Black color
}
}
}
}
I tried 2 different ways:
1.
Then I put a code into a Custom Code section of a report:
Code Snippet
Public Function GetColor(SeriesNumber as String)
Return CustomColorPalette.CustomPalette.GetColor(SeriesNumber)
End Function
And in the Chart Custom Color settings I put:
Code Snippet=Code.GetColor( Fields!SeriesNumber.Value )
And after compilation I get an error:
Error 303 [rsCompilerErrorInCode] There is an error on line 2 of custom code: [BC30451] Name 'CustomColorPalette' is not declared. c:developmentvoyagerreportsvoyager convert reports.rootvoyager convert reportsReport_007D.rdl 0 0
2.
Second way I tried:
Then I put a code into a Custom Code section of a report:
Code Snippet
Dim X As CustomColorPalette.CustomPalette
Protected Overrides Sub OnInit()
X = new CustomColorPalette.CustomPalette()
End Sub
And in the Chart Custom Color I put:
Code Snippet=Code.X.GetColor( Fields!SeriesNumber.Value )
And after compilation I am getting an error like this:
Error 302 [rsCompilerErrorInExpression] The BackgroundColor expression for the chart €˜chart2€™ contains an error: [BC30456] 'X' is not a member of 'ReportExprHostImpl.CustomCodeProxy'. c:developmentvoyagerreportsvoyager convert reports.rootvoyager convert reportsReport_007D.rdl 0 0
Is there any workaround? Or all I can do is to make the Custom Colors manually in each report, and if something need to be changed - I will need to change it in each report separately
Thanks,
Alex
Hello All,
I have a reporting services report in the form of a chart. I have two datafields on the chart.
I need to be able to dynamically hide one datafield and view the chart for the other one and vice versa.
How do I do this ?
Any help would be appreciated..
Thanks!
When I export the report in excel format the chart is displayed as picture.

Hi All,
I like RS for SQL server.
However, I am surprised (and frustrated) how limited the chart capabilities are; perhaps we have been spoiled by Excel...
Anyway, is there any way to change the color of the chart bars programatically.
I can select different schemas (excel, pastel, grayscale, etc) but I need to go a little bit further, is that much to ask?
Oh, by the way, we can't mix chart styles, can't we?
Need to show a chart and a line in the same report...
I appreciate your help on this, hopefully any answers to my questions might also help with other RS users with the same needs,
Thanks,

I have a chart that presently has two groupings on the x-axis: Year & Qtr. I'd like the Year labels to be one color, and the Qtr labels to be a different color.
