Pie view

    i cannot see the search box on the top right, so apologies if this question is already answered.

    What can I do about a pie view only showing how many characters there are rather than showing the actual field names?

    thanks

    Charlie,

    You can't see the web site search box? It contains the faint text "Google Custom Search" and should be at the very top-right of this page. What version of operating system and web browser are you using? Do you have any unusual security settings such as disabling cookies?

    In the Omniscope Pie view, you get this display when you have chosen a Text field instead of a Category field. By default a field is classed as a Category field only if it has under 100 unique values. Many more values render a pie view less useful. You can explicitly convert a field to Text using Data menu > Manage fields (in version 2.5) or Edit menu > Manage fields (2.4), locating the field, and changing the type drop-down from Text to Category.

    Alternatively, try using the Bar view, which is a more powerful view and does not have this Text/Category constraint.

    Steve
