KB45755: How to configure graph series as step lines in Report Services Documents in MicroStrategy Desktop


Community Admin

• Strategy


This feature links two successive points on a graph by a step-line rather than just joining them by a straight line.

This feature links two successive points on a graph by a step-line rather than just joining them by a straight line. Step lines use a horizontal line to display the value for a data point on the series, then a vertical line is used to move the line up to the next data point in a series. A step line can make it easier to discern what the values are for each data point on a series than a straight or curved line can. This option is available only for Line, Pareto Percent, Polar, and Stock graphs.
 
An example of a step line in Vertical Line Graph is shown below:
