How can I do following in MS Project 2013:
Gantt Chart export task along with dates in different page. Wish I could export Gantt chart along with dates so could see them in single page.
Can I add Timeline (Start..End Dates) to export?
I have added notes to tasks. How can I export them along with Gantt Chart?
What do you mean by "different pages" and by exporting? I think your question needs to be a bit more clear.
If it is exporting to Excel that you mean then I can suggest the following:
1) Arrange your Gantt-chart view: make sure the desired columns are in place. Remove the ones you are not interested in
2) Execute Ctrl+A or click on the little blank square on the top left of your Gantt-chart (just like how you select all cells in Excel) --> this should select all your tasks
3) On the Ribbon: click Task (if I remember correctly), then click on Outline, so that it expands all indented tasks. Repeat this a few more times (MSP does not expand all indented tasks on all levels immediately)
4) Copy paste the selection to Excel. Depending on the time formatting it is quite possible that you'llneed to convert the copy pasted Start and Finish dates cells in Excel by using the DATEVALUE() function
Despite this being a non-automatic way we tend to use this at times. It does depend on how frequent you need to do this. Based on the frequency and on the type of output you like, it could be a better idea to think about reporting.
Hope this helps.

I have the following graph in Power BI:
and I'm trying to recreate the below graph from Excel (note the X axis with the months February and January, with the Operation Text:
As you can see, my attempt only displays the Operation Text rather than the month and Operation Text).
Here is what my current axis looks like:
Changing the axis to have Actual Start Date on top, rather than the Operation Text:
Makes my graph look like this:
Is it possible to achieve the same outcome as in Excel, with the values in my graph showing the two months side by side, for each operation text? If so, how can I do this?
I've tried looking into the X axis 'format' settings and wasn't able to see anything obvious to help achieve this. In addition, unfortunately the graph I'm looking to recreate is only a screenshot so I am unable to see how it achieves that outcome.
EDIT:
As suggested, I attempted to place Operation Text into the Legend field in my Visualisations section but I am unable to, due to the fact that I have two Value fields (the two columns Actual Hours and Estimated Hours).
#CR7SMS is correct. You just need to expand down to the next level using that split arrow in the upper right of the visual so that this:
Becomes this:
Note that to get the axis to look like this, you'll need to sort on month rather than one of the measures.
You'll also want to turn off 'Concatenate labels' toggle in the 'Format > X axis' section of the visual settings.
You would have to drill down one level, using the arrows seen at the top right of your first screenshot. For your specific purposes, the split arrow should do the trick. Hope this helps.
Have you tried moving your date or operation text column in legend section ?..not 100% but something close to your requirement you can achieve
I'm trying to plot some data in Google spreadsheet:
And as you may see all of the series are in a same column and I can't use the any of the rows as headers. My plot looks like this:
I would appreciate if you could help me know how I can edit/add legend labels.
Unfortunately I don't think the graphs were intended for your data format.
The only way I've been able to work out how to add a header is by reformatting my data so I have the header at the top of my ranges.
So I suggest you split your data into separate columns so you have;
D2:D4, E2:E4, F2:F4 etc with D1, E1, and F1 as your header and then selecting "Use row 1 as your headers." From the data menu.
Alternatively, you could add labels to the series themselves. Although not ideal, it could be quicker than reformatting your data. On the data menu, click on the three dots of a data series to bring up a menu that allows you to add a label. Unfortunately this needs to be a cell so you'll have to have that header on your sheet some where.
I had the same question this year (2021), and it looks like there's support for it now. In short, you just have to double-click on the empty legend item for the series, and it'll give you a place to put text, directly in the chart.
Here's what my chart looked like (with no series titles):
If you double-click on one, you'll get a small text input area.
Type in your series name and then press enter or click outside of the input area.
Repeat this for each series, and you should be good to go.
I had the same problem because I was selecting only the data I wanted to include in the chart and not the entire table, headers and all. When you create a chart in Google Sheets and you want to use a row or column (or both) as strings that are included in the chart's labeling, you must select the entire table before choosing the Chart command from the Insert menu.
After doing so, you may need to do all or some of the following:
Switch rows/columns if your axes are not correct
Eliminate any rows/columns that you don't want represented by editing the Data Range field in the chart editor
Select Use column A as headers or Use row 1 as headers
You could also potentially use the add labels option when clicking on the 3 dots in the series section:
Double-click on the symbols in your legend, then double-click on the symbol for the series you would like to label; you should be able to directly enter your legend label now. You can do further text formatting using the chart editor on the right.
I took them to a new sheet. first selected only the X-axis and one of the columns that will appear as one. label. In this sheet, I made all the "labels" as a header of the sheet. and added them one by one as a series. and this time it. add them as a label.
obviously this is a workaround and the bug should be fixed :) hopefully.
I'm working with a lot of rank data that would benefit from a way to simultaneously display its respective year on the x-axis. For example, I want to create the following graph adapted from the dygraph gallery:
Note how the rank information (red arrow) for a particular weekend (green arrow) are both displayed on the x axis.
I know this might not be possible with dygraphs now, at least it wasn't available in these demos, so I guess my follow up question would be are there any plans to make this possible (how about in the [r] {dygraph} package)? Apparently a plotter called flot can do this.
UPDATE 1
If indeed this feature does not exist yet, then the following, although potentially obvious to Dygraph developers, is a thought for accomplishing the task easily (perhaps I'm wrong). At first I thought it would be necessary to provide input data of the form shown in Table A
However such input is a major deviation from the existing Dygraph parser model who expects one abscissa. Such suggests that a modification to the parser to accept a "Dual Label" option, requiring that both labels be contained in a single abscissa element as in Table B, would be easier. Thereafter, with the option specified, the parser would manage CSV as it usually would with the exception that it is now "bin cognizant" and detects division between labels 1 and 2 by use of an acceptable delimiter (in this case a single quotation mark - maybe not the best choice) and divisions between label 1 abscissa elements by name change. Behind the scenes each point gets its unique x coordinate and the "Dual Label" option causes the dygraph to visually scoot up a couple pixels to accommodate an extra label. Not sure how to handle full zoomed scrolling put simply leaving a label 1 element centered until an adjacent label 1 element comes on screen is an option.
Dygraphs rule!
There's no simple way to do this with dygraphs now. As you say, there's a fairly deep assumption that there's only a single x-axis.
Your best bet would be to either modify the existing legend plugin to do this, or to create a new plugin which renders just the "Weekend 1", "Weekend 2" line. While the plugins API isn't official yet, it is at least somewhat documented.
If you get this to work, please share your code!
I would like to put two series in the same graph on the graphite dashboard. However, since the dashboard requires single-line commands I could not find a way that doesn't involve the use of a wildcard.
Here's an example of the two series I would like in the same graph:
sum(base.foo.bar.positive.*)
sum(base.foo.bar.negative.*)
I tried several separators but I could not get it to work. Any ideas?
You have a few options here...
Merge the 2 graphs on to the graph via the drag and drop in the dashboard
OR
Use the sumSeriesWithWildcards() function
Merge 2 or more wildcard matching
Open your first graph on the dashboard
Open your second graph on the same dashboard
Click and hold the second graph and drag it over the first graph
Use groupByNode() and wildcard matching
This is not as nice, and will not always work however you will be able to do this all in one line.
sumSeriesWithWildcards(base.foo.bar.{positive,negative}.*, 3)
This will do the following:
Select all all the graphs that match base.foo.bar.positive.* and base.foo.bar.negative.*
Sum the data by the node at position 3: positive, negative
You might want to have a read over the following page: http://graphite.readthedocs.org/en/1.0/functions.html
I have a data frame, say:
df <- data.frame(a=1:10,b=runif(10))
I'd like to be able to display the data frame to the user and have them select (click) a row, and retrieve that row.
Something a bit like edit(df), except that what I want is much simpler in that I don't need editing functions --- I just need to listen for a click event on one of the rows and get the index for that row (I don't even need the particular cell!)
Does anyone know how I can do this? I'd prefer to do it with base R or grid (for the sake of not adding in lots of packages) -- maybe I can somehow draw the data frame on a grid graphics with a y scale defined from 1 to nrow(df) and use the grid.locator() function?
It'd be nice to avoid bringing in gui packages, but if I do, it should be cross-platform (linux/windows). gwidgets is quite nice (although they don't seem to have the click event nicely integrated with their gdf widget).
cheers.
well, here's a quick way, no extra packages, but you may have to fiddle with formatting if you want the table to be nicely aligned, rounded, etc:
df <- data.frame(a=1:10,b=runif(10))
df[menu(apply(df,1,paste,collapse=" "),graphics=TRUE),]
The device widens itself if necessary and scrollbars automatically appear when necessary.
I was going to suggest a combination of a blank plot filled with addtable2plot and then use locator to pick a point and calculate the row with a combination the y-specification and the cellheight <- max(strheight(c(column.names, row.names, as.vector(unlist(table))),... but effort in that direction seems silly since #timrifle seems to have hit the nail on the head.
