Hi ALL,

I have a report which at 20 indicators that I want to present with a horizontal bar . I  have an issue about legend when I put the legend at the top or right of the graph , it's very confuse because there is many indicators and some colours are repeated . So I want to put legend more comprehensive . I think to put the legend directly at the end of each bar .

Can we do this on OBIEE ? If yes please could some one advise on how to do it . Thank you

    By default you can only put the legend at right, left, bottom or top of the bar (you can also not show it). For what you want to achieve, the best option may be to create a legend view where you have more control over the display, you can choose how many values you want to show per row, customize labels, colors, etc.

    Just a bit of initiative sometimes doesn't hurt

    Hi FTisiot ,

    Thank you for the illustration . Also your observation "Just a bit of initiative sometimes doesn't hurt" is noted , but it's not obvious to know all feature of a system like OBIEE where you are a novice .

    Regards ,

    Well done Morel,

    We tend to push people to do always an extra step in the forum so we don't receive always the same answers.

    If you got the answer to your question you can maybe close the thread? It will help others with same/similar questions, right now it's still This question is Not Answered.
