Hello,

I was wondering how i can display the total count on the x axis on a bar chart?

So the bar chart will show the following:

February March
363 Count 380 Count

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. thank you.

Hi phong919,

Did you mean to show the data values on the bar chart ,in that case
try by following the below procedure.

Choosing chart data display options
• show/hide the values – for the data on each chart bar, line, or marker
• select a specific color – for the primary data series (that is, for the bars, lines,
or markers that display the first measure on the chart body)
• show/hide data markers – on Line charts, Bar and Line charts, and Radar
charts
• show/hide charts – when there is no data for the dimension(s) or measure(s)
on the axes
Showing/hiding data values
To show/hide data values:

  1. Make sure you are in Report View.
    The Edit Report button is pressed in when you are working in Report View.
  2. Select the chart.
  3. Click the Properties tab, and then click the Chart Format sub-tab.
    Or
    Right-click the chart, then select Edit Format from the shortcut menu.
  4. Under Apply To, click the arrow next to the list box, and then select Chart
    Data from the list.
  5. To show the data values, select Show data values.
    Or
  6. To hide the data values, unselect Show data values.
    The data values are shown or hidden on the chart, according to your
    selection.

I tried the following stated and i can’t get the bar charts to look like what i want it to be…

I’m including an attachment and i hope this will help with my requirement.

The bar chart chose is vertical percentage. So for February it shows 2 and 2…i wanted to display 50%/50%. and for march also in percentages and so forth.

I’m not sure how to get this chart to show the appropriate values
