Horizontal and vertical axis style settings switched in bar chart builder
20 April, 2014
Yellowfin 7.0 Build 20140225
In the bar chart builder, I encountered the following problems:
1.
The horizontal and vertical axis style settings seem to be switched around.
See screenshots 1 to 5 below.
2.
The vertical axis (which displays non-numeric values in my example!) offers Scale settings.
See screenshot 6 below. This makes no sense.
Instead, the horizontal axis should display Scale settings, because that displays numeric values.
3.
By the way, what is the Scale setting supposed to do? I played with it, and it didn't seem to do anything.
4.
I think there was a way to rotate the axis label texts so they are vertical.
I don't find this in the style settings any more. Is it gone, or is it in a completely different place?

Hi,
Sorry for the issues you have faced with the YF chart builder.
Please see comments below;
1.
This is no longer working at all (in the March release).
The axis font/color settings are not being applied, so I have raised this as a defect (TASK ID = 160463). This will be planned for the next release (due at the end of may).
2.
This should be fixed in the Yellowfin 7 March release, and also included in the April release, which you can get on the 2nd of May.
3.
The scale setting should allow you to set the lower bound, upper bound, and in some cases even the increments used for the units.
Here is an example:
4.
This should only be possible for time series charts and trellis charts.
Can you please choose one of these chart types and let me know if you still have issues.
Hope this covers everything and please let me know how it all goes or if I've missed something.
Thanks,
David
