Portlet XML Formatting

Chart XML Tags

On the Chart Portlet - there is a field to enter XML. The format of the XML is as follows:

marvelitchart [Attributes: percentvalues=”true|false” (pie charts only)]
value-axis [Attributes: low=”{number}” high=”{number}” ticks=”{number}” label=”text” include0=”true|false”]
category-axis [Attributes: low=”{number}” high=”{number}” ticks=”{number}” label=”text” angle=”true|false”]
section [Attributes: number=”{number} color=”#000000” explode=”{percent}”]
alt-section [Attributes: number=”{number} color=”#000000”]
columnlist (See Report XML)

Simple Example:

<marvelitchart percentvalues="false">
<value-axis low="5" high="50" ticks="11" label="val label" include0="false"/>
<category-axis low="-1" high="10" ticks="2.5" label="cat label" angle="45"/>
<section number="0" color="#0000FF" explode=".30" />
<alt-section number="0" color="#0000FF" />
</marvelitchart>

Notes:

• section.explode only applies to pie charts (2d and 3d)
• alt-section is for overlays
• The number field for section and alt-section are integers starting with 0
• include0 = false allows the base of the chart to be a high number. This is useful when all values are of a similarly high value.

Report XML Tags

On the Report and Meter Portlet - there is a field to enter XML. The format of the XML is as follows:

columnformatlist column [Attributes: name=”columnname|number|*”] lever [Attributes: name=”columnname|default” value=”lever value”] threshold [Attributes:

• field=‚Äùcolumnname|number‚Äù
• value=‚Äùvalue‚Äù
• type=‚Äùstring|date|number‚Äù]
