Hi All,

I am currecntly doing an evaluation to see if I can achive the following with nevron pie charts with SSRS. I have this requirement to make a pie chart with the spider mode labels. I have attached an image to to make it easy to understand. I have 3 problems.

1) Check the image for the read arrow. I cannot get the text to to have a crlf as when rendering it seems to ignore the the crlf. And it only ignores thje crlf only if I uncheck the Chart Area, appearances, outline data labels. But I have to uncheck this to format the colour of the call out lines to look back and and then apply any other formatting to the labels. Here is the Data point values, label data - =Fields!ReportingAlias.Value & System.Environment.NewLine & Fields!ValuationPercentage.Value

2) I also cannot seem to change the justification of the text to Center. I have set it under Data Labels, Text Style, Position, Alignement. Text Direction does not seem to have Center, only left to right and right to left.

3), if you look at the image, I have drawn in a purple arrow the call out line which seems to have twisted to 3 parts. I need it to twist only 2 times and also the second twist line should be parallel to all the other call outs 2nd twists. not sure if I am making this understandable. But if you have a look at the image, you might understand.

Thanks

Hi Amendra,

1) Check the image for the read arrow. I cannot get the text to to have a crlf as when rendering it seems to ignore the the crlf. And it only ignores thje crlf only if I uncheck the Chart Area, appearances, outline data labels. But I have to uncheck this to format the colour of the call out lines to look back and and then apply any other formatting to the labels. Here is the Data point values, label data - =Fields!ReportingAlias.Value & System.Environment.NewLine & Fields!ValuationPercentage.Value

By default all labels use XML formatted texts - to turn this feature off from the designer go to Rendering\Image and uncheck "Enable XML Text Formatting". This should take caret of the problem.

2) I also cannot seem to change the justification of the text to Center. I have set it under Data Labels, Text Style, Position, Alignement. Text Direction does not seem to have Center, only left to right and right to left.

Please refer to the previous post how to fix this one.

3), if you look at the image, I have drawn in a purple arrow the call out line which seems to have twisted to 3 parts. I need it to twist only 2 times and also the second twist line should be parallel to all the other call outs 2nd twists. not sure if I am making this understandable. But if you have a look at the image, you might understand.

Currently there is no way to modify the build in connector routing.

Hope this helps - let us know if you meet any problems or have any questions.
