Problem Note 39734: Pie chart legend includes values that are combined into the Other slice for OLAP-based SAS® Web Report Studio reports
For OLAP-based reports, if your pie chart combines minimal values into an Other slice, the values included in the Other slice are still visible in the legend. The values are visible so that you can perform actions, such as drill-through, on the values. In the following example, Orion Clothing is included in the Other slice, but it is still visible in the legend so that you have the option to Drill Down on Orion Clothing.
The only indication that a particular value is included in the Other slice is that the associated legend color is not represented in the pie chart.
Click the Hot Fix tab in this note to access the hot fix for this issue. The hot fix is available for SAS Web Report Studio 4.2_M2 and 4.3.
After you apply the hot fix, you can set a property that will prevent values that are included in the Other slice from appearing in the legend. To set this property, make the following changes to the SAS Web Report Studio properties in SAS® Management Console.
- On the Plug-ins tab, depending on your version, either navigate to Application Management ► Configuration Manager ► Web Report Studio 4.2 or to Application Management ► Configuration Manager ► SAS Application Infrastructure ► Web Report Studio 4.3.
- Right-click and select Properties to open the Web Report Studio 4.x Properties dialog box.
- Click the Advanced tab.
- Click Add to open the Define New Property dialog box.
- For the Property Name, enter
.vmwide.sas.graph.piehideothervalues
- For the Property Value, enter
true
- Click OK twice to exit both dialog boxes and save the changes.
- Restart your Web application server to enforce the new setting.
Note: This property is available without a hot fix beginning with version 4.31.
