Dynamics365 Chart xml not working.

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Hi Experts,

I have created a chart in the "campaign" entity. Later I am using XRM toolbox to modify the chart's XML.

I have created a "Bar" chart and I am trying to overlay bars by using property "DrawSideBySide=False"... Below is a short xml.

<Series BorderWidth="0" LabelForeColor="59, 59, 59" IsValueShownAsLabel="True" Color="183, 212, 51" LegendText="Raised Amount ($)" IsVisibleInLegend="True" ChartType="Bar" Font="Verdana, 7.5px" CustomProperties="DrawingStyle=Cylinder,DrawSideBySide=False,BarLabelStyle=Left,MaxPixelPointWidth=40,PointWidth=0.75">
<SmartLabelStyle Enabled="True" />
</Series>

When I am previewing the chart in the XRM itself it shows as expected (below image)... However, when i open the chart in Dynamics online , it is not overlaying bars...

Is there anything I am missing or doing wrong?

    Did you ever get this resolved? I am facing the same issue. Model driven app on the cloud doesn't seem to recognize the DrawingStyle=Cylinder xml attribute.

    However, when looking at the chart in design view inside the solution, it shows it properly:

    I have the same problems! I can update the changes and most of them are applied but not DrawSideBySide=False.

    Anyone have any idea why it no longer works?

    Thanks

    Yes, I did.. 

    Some properties work and some don't.

    Strange!

    Hi,

    According to the second screenshot, it seems that the other properties you set are not taking effect either. E.g. DrawingStyle=Cylinder

    After you have modified the XML, did you update it successfully?

    Hi Nya 

    Thanks for your reply.

    Below is the screen shot... As you can see the bars are not on top of each other.

    Hi,

    Would you please share a screenshot to show the effect of the chart in Dynamics?
