Column Settings including Data Values, Data Categories, and Data Subcategories.
Preview and customize the appearance.

To use the Chart Wizard, you need to first enable it from the Admin portal >> Configuration >> WynReports Settings >> Designer Settings >> Enable Chart Wizard.

Navigate to the Report Designer page and bind a dataset to the report from the Data panel on the right side of the designer. See the Data Binding in Reports help doc for information on binding data to a report.

Now, follow the instructions below to use the Chart Wizard.

From the report toolbar, drag and drop the chart control onto the design area or click the chart control button. Chart Wizard will appear on your screen.

Note: Chart Wizard opens only when a dataset is bound to the report before adding the chart.
Use the Chart Wizard to create a report containing charts in a three-step process as described below:
i) Data and Type: In this step, the dataset bound to the report appears in the Select Data Set dropdown by default. To change the dataset, use the Select Data Set dropdown and select a Chart Type from the following chart types:
Column, Bar, Line, Area, Spiral, Polar, Pie, Doughnut, Radar Area, Radar Bubble, Radar Scatter, Radar Line, Pyramid, Funnel, Bubble, Scatter, Gantt, Candlestick, High Low Close, High Low Open Close, Range Area, Range Bar, Range Column, and Gauge.

ii) Settings: The Settings of the chart wizard are divided into three parts: Data Values, Data Categories, and Data Subcategories. The Settings of all chart types are listed and described in the Chart Settings section of this help article.

iii) Preview: On the Preview step, you can preview a sample layout of the chart. Use the Select chart palette dropdown to select a color palette for the chart. You can also use the Advanced Customization options, such as Area, Header, X axis, Y axis, Plot Settings, and Footer, to further customize the chart. Using the Advanced Customization options opens the settings in the Property grid on the report designer. Click the Finish button to add the chart to the report.
