Method to modify property for all graph?

Charles M

Hi (again)

Not sure about this one ... but, worth probing the collective wisdom of the board.

Users want to make some adjustments to some dashboard features/layouts. In one such case, they'd like to change all the graphs from 3D to 2D (all graphs are currently displayed as 3D). I know that I can do this by going into each graph respectively and change, but wondering if there is a way to change everything together??

I’d suggest you take 1 analysis and look at the XML before and after changing the graph property. You can use an XML editor to compare both XML files.

Once you’ve found the code difference, you can then do a global XML search and replace with the catalog manager.  Score making global catalog changes always take a backup!

Thanks Joel! I'll take a look at that. Sounds like this may be the only option, eh?

Hi Joel,

I took one sample so far (so, making an assumption of the small sample size here). And, I can see that 3d comes up twice.

Here are the tags I found them in:

<saw:view xsi:type="saw:dvtchart" name="dvtchart!1">  <saw:display type="lineBar" subtype="basic" renderFormat="default" mode="online">     <saw:style barStyle="default" lineStyle="default" scatterStyle="default" fillStyle="default" bubblePercentSize="100" effect="3d" />

<saw:view xsi:type="saw:dvtchart" name="dvtchart!2">      <saw:display type="bar" subtype="hundredPctStacked" renderFormat="default" mode="online">        <saw:style barStyle="default" lineStyle="default" scatterStyle="default" fillStyle="default" bubblePercentSize="100" effect="3d" />

I'm going to try this out, and see how it goes. I'll circle back here when I'm done ...

Regards,

Charles

Worked like a charm! Thanks again, this is good to know.
