Hi,

I have been trying to figure out what is going wrong with my line chart in CRXI-R2.

I have a line chart showing a series of samples values (for water tests). Each sample was taken on a certain date. The chart shows 10 years of data.

I used the 'colour highlight' tab under the chart expert dialog. I set a condition for all dates in 1997 to show in red. (I did not set any more conditions b/c I can't even get the first one to work). Under 'item editor' I picked the date field, then picked 'is between' and then picked the beginning and ending date for 1997.

When I run the report, ALL the samples, from 1997 to 2008 show up in red.

For some reason it does not pay any attention to the condition I set, but it does recognize it has to change the colour to red.

What is going on?

Thanks in advance!

ok....sorry for the delay!....the fix was pretty simple...you need to select a line style that uses 'markers'.....when that is selected the colour highlighting parameters are activated.

If line markers are not activated, the colour highlighting does not get recognized.
