Launch URL based on datapoint


User (Legacy)

Recommended Posts

Hi

I'm currently looking into this product, however I can't find out how to

launch a URL based on a data point clicked on by the user.

In our current application when the user clicks onto one of the data points

displayed on the chart, a URL is created that contains a parameter based on

the datapoint selected and uses this to launch a 'details screen' providing

details of the point selected.

Is this possible with your product?

Thanks

You can use "variables" in the parameters of your sub-report to specify 

information particular to the element that was clicked:

a.. Variables can be accessed using the % following the variable you want to

include:

l Shows X-Axis Legend.

k Shows X-Axis Key Legend.

s Shows Series Legend.

S Shows the Series Index.

x Shows XValue (XY charts, when they were set with X values).

i Shows IniValues (Gantt).

v Shows Data Value.

v <n> For types that require more than one series, these are replaced by the

value of each one. (n represents an index).

t Series Total (Sum of all points in this series).

p Percentage of total this point represents (Pie).

T Point Total (Sum of all series for this point).

P Percentage of total this series represents (Used in stacked charts).

X displays the marker X value for any chart type including those that do not

support X values such as bar.

N Shows the index for the point.

L Shows the Text property of the Point object.

Thanks, but I'm not sure I understand.

What I want to do is to be able to click on a plotted data point and be able

to launch a new URL like some kind of "drill down" function.

The %x {Shows XValue (XY charts, when they were set with X values).} increments through the x-values if used multiple times

.URLParamMask="&BeginningDate=%x&EndingDate=%x"

The result is &BeginningDate=02/22/2007&EndingDate=02/23/2007

We are running v6.2
