C.4.3.9. Advanced Pie Chart Properties

The Advanced Pie Chart is not visible by default – you must first insert this

using the ‘Insert’ menu (see section ‘C.3.1.4. Insert’). Once you have

inserted it, you can select it to display the properties (Figure 84).

Figure 84

The properties that require explanation are described below.

Data Source

This can be either ‘indicator’ or ‘associate’. If ‘indicator’ is selected, the pie

chart(s) will show data for all the indicators in the active theme. So if you

view an indicator called ‘Male Population’ in your report and this belongs to

a theme called ‘Demographics’ then the pie chart will display a slice for

each of the indicators in the ‘Demographics’ theme.

If ‘associate’ is selected, the pie chart(s) will show data for the associates

of the active indicator. So if you view an indicator called ‘Male Population’

in your report then the pie chart will display a slice for each of the

associates of this indicator.

List Of Associates To Ignore

When the ‘Data Source’ property is set to ‘associate’, by default all

associate columns of the selected indicator will be part of the Advance Pie

Chart. However, the categories for the Advanced Pie Chart should always

add up to a logical total. If you would like to include additional associates

into your report which do not belong to the logical total but which you might

wish to display in the data table, you can add them to the ‘List of

Associates To Ignore’. These associates will then not be included into the

Advanced Pie Chart.

There is a dedicated guide about the Advanced Pie Chart available.

Please contact your support provider for further information.

you wish to define fixed values on a theme, indicator or time period

basis you should do it through the Metadata of your data files.

Please refer to section ’E.6.2.4 Setting the Chart Axis Minimum and

Maximum’.
