Definition

Use

You can switch between the SAP-defined default settings and your own Customizing scheme that you created using the Chart Designer.
You have the following options:

  • Default Settings
    The configuration of the chart is exclusively based on the Web Dynpro configuration settings. For instance, you can configure the chart type and the titles and units of the chart axis.
    As long as the user has not imported a Customizing scheme, this dropdown list box is disabled and Default Settings option is selected.
  • Customizing Scheme (Chart Designer)
    The configuration of the chart is based on an XML chart Customizing file. This should be used for more complex charts definitions:
    1. You export the current configuration as an XML file.
    2. You make your changes in the Chart Designer or in the transaction BS_ANLY_CD.
      For more information, see SAP Library under Chart Designer.
    3. Import the modified XML file.

Prerequisites

In addition to the parameters that are directly available in the configuration dialog, you can influence the chart's appearance by defining a chart Customizing scheme using:

  • A text editor
    This can be any text editor such as Notepad. However, this provides no syntax support and a low user experience.
  • The Chart Designer

Dependencies

As soon as the user has imported a Customizing scheme or uses a Customizing scheme that has been edited by the Chart Designer the other chart appearance attributes are disabled. Customizing Scheme is displayed in the Define Chart Appearance By field. In addition the corresponding Chart Type and the Display Values settings are determined from the XML file.

When you have already imported (or edited) a Customizing scheme and switch back to Default Settings, the following happens:

  • The setting for displaying or hiding the legend is ignored.
    Instead the default setting is used.
  • The setting for displaying or hiding the grid lines is ignored.
    Instead the default setting is used.
  • All chart texts are ignored (except the Primary Axis Texts).

The chart's Customizing scheme is stored (and transported) together with the other configuration settings, thus requiring no extra name or transport object. There is only one set of settings and they are not shared across multiple Chart GUIBBs.
